Looking at the January timeline. Jan 7 - they killed Renee Good, later the same day Bovino/CBP attacked Roosevelt HS Jan 14 - they shot Julio Sosa-Celis, tear gassed North Jan 20- they took Liam Ramos in his bunny hat Jan 23 - Largest General Strike in state history Jan 24 -they killed Alex Pretti
Sure, some of these new Dem voters only want lower gas prices. But the accountability is how you discourage the next illegal, foolish war that made the prices go up in the first place. Also, people are fucking dead. People were tortured. Lives were ruined. Fucking deliver for those people.

Democrats just need to run a woman from Texas in 2028 for President. I think that would be a pretty much done deal.
Excited to have gotten Klobuchar out of the Senate finally 🤭
Prosecute ICE is, I promise you, the most levelheaded and centrist take available.

Democratic Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan has won the election for the U.S. Senate seat, according to the Associated Press.
Twin Cities, this is not a joke. This is a 100% accurate review.
ZachSCARY Johnson@zachstronaut.com · 7d agoThe Heights is doing a live theater Houdini seance thing. There are two more shows on Halloween, the 100th anniversary of his death. At one point a man escapes the police by dancing through and hiding in a kick line. When the cop tried to pursue him, the dancers kicked the shit out of the cop. 5/5
If LLMs could meet the hype then why haven’t we seen Universal Studios kick out an unusual number of bangers? Why hasn’t EA or Epic done that in games? And if Marvel could use AI to do even twice as many superhero films a year, who gives a crap? What consumer has the time or money?
Ok now say the same thing about money Sam, about how it's bad for individuals to horde it doing nothing but sitting on it and how it should be utilised maximally for everyone's benefit since it's supply constrained (You won't)

I have a lot of M Health Fairview experiences where you wait 8 weeks to see a specialist and get a PA with 4 years on the job who says “I don’t know”
Not the sort of CEO you want at your email inbox provider. Or online docs/sheets. Sigh.

What if it is still the 1990s and I’m using the Ouija board, eyes rolled back white in my head, and my Jr High friends are all screaming. they can’t get the planchette to move to “GOODBYE” because my hands are frozen as the demon tortures me with visions of a thing it calls “the 2020s”
Had an extremely dumb and tiny halloween video game idea, but if I am being honest with myself I am gonna spend that time making another foam tombstone if I do anything at all.
All the art content creators ostensibly bemoaning AI by saying “and now one person can create a clone in just one day” are being paid by AI companies to say that. Because it isn’t even close to being true, but if you repeat it enough times…

The black pit deep beneath Edinburgh where a ghost unclipped my tour lanyard, I shit you not. Usually there are not real ghosts on ghost tours?
I really enjoyed how every fifth person in Edinburgh is soft goth.
Perhaps Freya is not being bleak enough. If you look at assembling cars or houses you can clearly see that design/craft that does not synergize with the automation becomes unaffordable and rare. So creative agency gets pushed out in a feedback loop.
Freya Holmér@freya.bsky.social · 2w agoautomation is supposed to target things people within any given craft consider rote and tedious, things that have almost no creative agency but when you automate things those within the craft love doing, that help us grow as artists/thinkers/designers, you're removing humanity from the craft
