This made-for-instagram video probably has about 20% of the the bsky version does. Political content is suppressed there; I have a hunch that words like “censorship” and “disinformation” are too.
I’m so tired of spending hours on content that doesn’t even get shown to my followers 😩
IT MATTERS IF YOU HAPPEN TO BE U.S. SOLDIERS GETTING TARGETED, YOU INSIPID GHOUL.

Does this count as another new reason for the war, or is this just a side benefit they forgot to mention until now
So now both Russia and China are assisting Iran.
I’m a little confused because the economists on my timeline are like “oh yeah we’re facing a generational energy crisis because Trump is a madman who started a war he can’t control” while the politicians are like “it’s important to make clear we support the troops until it all blows over next week”
“When I use a word,” Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, “it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less.”
The most massive technological investment in history being this heavily leveraged in a time of global war and rising prices for everything = probably fine
So Trump rolls out the red carpet for Putin, protects Putin, bullies the Ukrainians for Putin, and in return Putin helps Iranians kill Americans.
Trump must act now or the case for him being a Russian asset of some type will be undeniable.
Seems bad that Republicans gutted the FBI, CIA, State Department and any other federal agency that might help prevent things like this.
Netanyahu has been wrong every time he has recommended some new military action to the US because his interests are more personal self-preservation than security.

A cabinet resignation so soon in the new administration would be treated as a historical stop-the-presses fuck up and scandal by the old political press (Clinton, Bush, Obama and Biden had 0 cabinet resignations/firings this early in their term). For Trump they will set up "comeback kid" narrative
The incoming party leadership of the GOP is openly racist, sexist, and antisemitic in a way that used to be isolated to skinheads - like calling for genocide, sharing "ways to kill Black people" levels of open fascism
today, it's normal
You all say Donald Trump is anti-immigrant, but did you know his wife is an immigrant? *drops mic, saunters triumphantly back into the Nazi bar*
For the last few days the President of the USA and the White House communications team have been active agents of Russian influence, spreading the Putin narrative and trying to undermine democracy.
Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM
In the late 90’s I took Jeff Bezos shopping at an Old Navy.
In considering this we have to contend with the fact that Joe Biden won the nomination in 2020 in large part because black women in South Carolina gave him the primary victory there.
He recently denigrated her family’s Hindu faith, so entirely believable. Bigots are always trying to excuse their bigotry with “my best friend is …” or “I dated a …”
I give you Strom Thurmond as an example of “it’s OK to sleep with them even while you want to deny them their civil rights.”
Nice pull and an important reminder that, no, things haven't always been like this.
US health officials are trying to delay a regional World Health Organization meeting that would confirm the loss of its measles elimination status until after the midterm elections in November.
This is a reckless, accountability-dodging move that puts politics over public health.
Free newsletter: The AI bubble's info war demands that we believe in things that aren’t true, like the economic fundamentals of the AI industry are perfectly sound, or that Sam Altman and Dario Amodei are anything other than warmongers.

Fred Trump and Barack Obama: two men born in America whom Trump has repeatedly claimed were born elsewhere.
Seems about time to re-up this...
"Just days before the United States launched a major military operation in Iran, FBI Director Kash Patel fired a dozen agents and staff members from a counterintelligence unit tasked with monitoring threats from Iran,"
This is extraordinarily dangerous for Israel. If true, it means that Israel can determine when the US goes to war and Americans die. If a lie, then Israel is being made the fall guy for Trump’s unpopular policy.
If the US has unlimited supplies of weapons as Trump is saying and can fight wars forever, why is he insulting Zelensky and Ukraine?
maybe the most concise 2-sentence summary possible of the entire decade-plus Trump Experience
very unfair to call this guy a Nazi merely because he had a Nazi tattoo, retweets Nazis, and praises Nazi shows. after all, he could just be really astonishingly fucking dumb. seems like a great candidate!
