I kind of liked #TheBride. It packed in a lot of feminist catchphrases, a lot of Hollywood allusions, a few jokes, and a couple of dance numbers. Reminded me a little of Everything Everywhere All at Once, including a mother/daughter story.

Kinda weird that the party that controls the House, the Senate, and the White House claims there's rampant voter fraud.
r/analytics • IOh We just found out our AI has been making up analytics data for 3 months and I'm gonna throw up. Support So we've been using an Al agent since November to answer leadership questions about metrics. It seemed amazing at first fast answers, detailed explanations, everyone loved it. I just found out it's been hallucinating numbers this entire time. Our VP of sales made territory decisions based on data that didn't exist. Our CFO showed the board a deck with fake insights. The Al was just inventing plausible sounding percentages. I only caught it by accident when someone asked me to double check something. I started digging, and holy shit, it's bad.
lol this is gonna burst so fucking hard
What?!?

DHS doesn’t even bother trying to lie well. The man whose skull was shattered told the hospital he’d been struck by ICE officers, an ICE officer told hospital staff the guy “got his sh*t rocked,” then when it became clear how badly he was injured, they claimed he deliberately ran into a wall.
AOC on Noem's lies: "They are asking you to give up your belief in your own senses and instead hand over your belief to anything they say ... look at it for yourself and what you will see is an innocent man being executed in the street."

In 1916, the US was worried that Germany might take control of the Danish West Indies to use as a submarine base. So, Denmark sold the Danish West Indies to the USA, with the colony becoming the US Virgin Islands. In exchange, the USA acknowledged Denmark's complete sovereignty over Greenland.
We are now 29 days beyond the statutory deadline for the full release of the Epstein files
NOEM: “We can’t trust the government anymore.”
BASH: “You are the government.”
NOEM: “Yes, that’s what I’m saying.”🤔
The only honest thing @KristiNoem said today

The Dean “also clarified that faculty may assign textbooks with chapters that cover transgender identity, so long as they do not talk about the material or include it on assignments or exam questions.”
And they call this an education?
Forget right vs left. What about right vs wrong?
“'The guy, I’m telling him like, "Please step off the school grounds," and this dude comes up and bumps into me and then tells me that I pushed him, and he knocked me down,' an official at Roosevelt High School said. 'They don’t care. They’re just animals. I’ve never seen people behave like this.'"
A 23 year old larping as a journalist made a misleading and inaccurate YouTube video that the administration full of chronically online shitposters used to justify the “largest immigration operation ever” and now someone is dead
The President does not have the authority to cancel elections.
And in fact, saying so is another impeachable offense.
The levels of grift in the hate-your-body economy continue to reach for new levels of creative destruction with the onset of GLP-1s. I’m watching them spin up a “loose skin” panic in real time.
I’m not sure America can exist without the idea that bodies must be punished.

My dog is taken aback at first but is fine as long as he can snooze on my lap. But I also hate fireworks on principle.
People have all the money for fireworks because they don’t have pets. This dog prefers that I spend that boom-boom money on dog treats.
