Legolas Gimli side by side meme edited to say: Never thought l'd die fighting side by side with an LLM That's a great point Gimli. You're really getting to the core of things here. It shows a lot of insight that you understand how necessity based alliances have historic precedent while still being uncomfortable for their participants Big boob Legolas, high quality, pretty androgynous elf standing majestically rampart, sexy, trending on ArtStation, blonde, very tall, is nice to me and is my friend, hot elf

The Handbasket 100% independent journalism by Marisa Kabas

Now that CNN and WBD are set to become state media in a sale to Paramount/Oracle/TikTok, it is especially important to support independent media.

War Games gave us unrealistic expectations on the capacity of AI to predict catastrophic consequences.

We are a few thousand subscribers away from being a bigger print newspaper than the Washington Post.

We are a mere flurry away from humiliating one of the two Big Space Perverts.

"While the account’s earliest available posts focused on NFTs, it has been a consistent pro-Trump presence since at least 2022."

Of course the AstroTurf right wing troll would also be a crypto grifter

A few days ago, a friend asked me to make a FB group for our friend circle planning a tea party.

I made the group and invited six people.

SIX PEOPLE. It's for a tea party, at someone's house.

... wait for it ... (AI slop post 1/ ?)

So Bree hinted at this story a few days ago, but I want to circle back now that I have permission to share it.

WHISTLES OUT: A WHISTLE CREW MYSTERY

some of you are looksmaxxing when you need to be booksmaxxing

For ICE to build concentration camps quickly, they're leaning on this Dept. of War program WEXMAC TITUS helps contractors bypass the traditionally lengthy government contract bidding process

NEW — An obscure Navy contractor program is making Trump’s plans to quickly build out and supply immigrant concentration camps around the country a reality.

Here I explain WEXMAC TITUS, an acronym you need to understand:

Everywhere this man goes he should be treated as if he murdered millions of children, because he did.

Again, all I'm asking is that any Democrat who wants my vote support 1. Reverting Trump's anti-trans policies, 2. Commit to fighting against the future erosion of trans rights, and 3. Support legislation codifying trans rights into law.

Very weird how many of you centrists think that's unreasonable

If they’re losing the “I’m not political but I love America” guys in Callaway hats…

James Talarico: No one's ever asked me about the cost of housing. The only thing the media wants to ask me about are trans athletes.

The only minority destroying this country is the billionaires. Trans people are 1% of the population. We are all focused on the wrong 1%.

I am in awe of how one person can be so consistently wrong with every idea he gets published

More people should listen to @tressiemcphd.bsky.social

When people say AI is inevitable, let them know the future isn’t settled.

Oppose the SAVE Act! The SAVE Act would create one more barrier to the voting process, as many eligible voters do not have easy access to the necessary documents. Tell your Senators to oppose the SAVE Act.

The Washington Post Is No Longer Useful to Jeff Bezos In a kleptocracy, there is no reason for a billionaire to own an adversarial news outlet.

Imagine what else we could build if more of us were motivated by more than just profit.

Seems 💯 accurate.

FILED January 31, 2026 CLERK, U.S. DISTRICT COURT WESTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS Jaemie Herndon DEPUTY ADRIAN CONEJO ARIAS, and L.C.R., a Minor Child by and through His Parent and Guardian Adrian Conejo Arias, Petitioners, VS. KRISTI NOEM, in Her Official Capacity as Secretary of the United States Department of Homeland Security; PAMELA BONDI, in Her Official Capacity as Attorney General of the United States; TODD LYONS, in His Official Capacity as Acting Director, United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement; DAREN MARGOLIN, in His Official Capacity as Acting Director of the Executive Office of Immigration Review; and JOHN DOE, in His Official Capacity as the Warden of the Dilley Immigration Processing Center in Dilley, Texas, Respondents. CIVIL CASE NO. SA-26-CV-415-FB § OPINION AND ORDER OF THE COURT

Civics lesson to the government: Administrative warrants issued by the executive branch to itself do not pass probable cause muster. That is called the fox guarding the henhouse. The Constitution requires an independent judicial officer. Accordingly, the Court finds that the Constitution of these United States trumps this administration's detention of petitioner Adrian Conejo Arias and his minor son, L.C.R. The Great Writ and release from detention are GRANTED pursuant to the attached Judgment. Observing human behavior confirms that for some among us, the perfidious lust for unbridled power and the imposition of cruelty in its quest know no bounds and are bereft of human decency. And the rule of law be damned.

Ultimately, Petitioners may, because of the arcane United States immigration system, return to their home country, involuntarily or by self-deportation. But that result should occur through a more orderly and humane policy than currently in place. Philadelphia, September 17, 1787: "Well, Dr. Franklin, what do we have?" "A republic, if you can keep it." With a judicial finger in the constitutional dike, It is so ORDERED. SIGNED this 31st day of February [sic], 2026.

BREAKING: Federal judge orders Adrian Conejo Arias and his minor son, L.C.R., released.

"The Great Writ and release from detention are GRANTED."

"Civics lesson to the government: Administrative warrants issued by the executive branch to itself do not pass probable cause muster."

Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti “We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

"Please get the truth out about our son."

@jonesjay.bsky.social is there anything like this from your office for Virginia
