Screenshot reading

Upon exiting, she was asked to rate her ride out of five lightning bolts, and the app suggested she leave a tip: $1, $2, or other. 

Five lightning bolts, Zara selected. Was the tip for the robot or the safety driver? 

As robots don’t need money, and the driver is a Tesla engineer likely making somewhere between $200,000 and $315,000 per year, she skipped the tip.

1. Azerbaijan hasn't been at war with Albania. Trump confuses Albania with Armenia. But he wants credit, a Nobel Prize, for ending a war in which he can't identify the parties.
2. The Fox hosts are too ignorant or too sycophantic to correct him.
3. Imagine if Biden had said this.

Kid: there's a shelter in place just wanted to let you know

Me: are you ok? 

Kid: 
Yeah
Not a lockdown just shelter in place
Someone made a text this happened like 4 times last year it's fine

Me: ok keep me posted please

Second week of school. Text from my kid, who's been through so many drills, shelter in place warnings and full on lockdowns that they're just the normal course of business now. This is the world people like Charlie Kirk worked to create.

Form a Union | AFL-CIO

Something is wrong with a system where 75% of workers say they’re worried about making ends meet, while greedy corporate CEOs make 285x what their median worker makes.

Working people don’t have to accept this. A union contract is how we fight back and WIN!

Pretty amazing how they can "precisely" target someone but every hospital, school, place of worship, refugee camp was an "accident."

I can't believe I need to have an AI policy! I made it pretty short though: Using AI is cheating, yourself mostly. In addition to the environmental blight created by AI, it makes no sense to use it in your intellectual and creative work. Why would you outsource your innate intelligence?

The deadly toll on journalists in the Gaza war With foreign media barred, Palestinians have reported alone, facing the ‘most deliberate effort to kill and silence’ them ever

The Guardian has today printed the names, and where possible, images, of all the media workers killed in Gaza, as part of an international day of action involving more than 150 media organisations.

Gaza postwar plan envisions ‘voluntary’ relocation of entire population President Donald Trump and international partners are discussing plans to build a “Riviera of the Middle East” on the rubble of Gaza. One would establish U.S. control and pay Palestinians to leave.

'a gleaming tourism resort and high-tech manufacturing and technology hub.'
Who wouldn't want to vacation over the slaughtered bodies of tens of thousands of children?
This is so sick.

Louder for the folks in the back: Republicans don't believe in democracy. They believe in dominance. And until we get our shit together and smash them into the ground a few times, they'll keep pushing the envelope farther and farther into fascism.

Tim Dunn is a Texas oil billionaire with ties to the Christian nationalist movement. He dumped $5 million into Rogers' campaign. On top of that, he has lived in Florida for the past 10 years. He doesnt care about anyone but himself.

A man understandably refused to hand over his ID or get out of the car for a bunch of masked thugs who refused to identify themselves.

And when he drove away, they opened fire on him.

This isn’t how you do any sort of enforcement when your goal is to uphold the law. This is gangsterism.

The SAVE Act Status: Now is the Time to Stop it in the Senate Already passed by the House, the SAVE Act would undermine voting access – especially for people most harmed by climate change.

From one Big Ugly Bill to another. This is your reminder that the Save Act is awaiting a Senate vote. Contact your senators now and demand they vote NO.

State Department halts visitor visa process for all Gazans MAGA commentator Laura Loomer took credit for the move.

Gaza is the size of Detroit and home to the most child amputees per capita. HEAL Palestine is an organization that evacuates these children and provides them with much needed medical care. This is beyond cruel, but I expect nothing less from these sadists. www.politico.com/news/2025/08...

It was such a privilege to be in the beautiful Upper Peninsula this week, hosting an important Town Hall with Chair Hertel and colleagues from the Michigan Democratic Party. We had meaningful conversations about the challenges and opportunities facing their communities. I can't wait to go back.

From skyrocketing CEO pay to the crushing costs of housing, childcare, and wages that don’t keep up — families were sold a bill of goods by Donald Trump. It’s time to make life a little easier for everyday Americans. Hear more from MDP Chair @CurtisHertelJr.bsky.social at PartyOnThePeninsulas.com

We marched with UAW members today after Cleveland-Cliffs made a contractual promise to invest $300 million in the historic Rouge steelmaking facility, and broke that promise. Starting on July 15th, Cliffs decided to idle all but two departments, resulting in the layoffs of over 500 UAW members.
