Pure godless evil.
So he's saying that he knew Israel was going to attack Iran and he believed Iran would retaliate by attacking US bases, so we had to strike first since Israel was going to get US forces attacked.
FREE TINA PETERS!
A striking thing about Trump's social media activity over the past 24 hours is that from it you'd barely know we're at war. He's been posting news articles from over 2 years ago, spamming posts w/ positive reviews of his SOTU speech, & now posting stuff like this. The guy really lives in a bubble.
It’s always “We can’t afford to pay our employees a living wage.”
But it’s never “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars."
so the reason this was such a ridiculous own goal by Altman is that we are still in pretty early days for LLMs and, as I understand it from people who use them more regularly, ChatGPT is no longer remotely best in class
you don’t want people trying your competitors when they’re better!
Well, if you can go from calling Trump “America’s Hitler” to serving as his vice president, flip-flopping on a war is child’s play.
Millennial nostalgia did not include a wish for another pointless war with devastating consequences.
It's always about the election he lost.
Americans do not want this. They do not want another war in pursuit of regime change. They want relief from the affordability crisis. They want peace.
JD Vance said there is “no chance” the US would be drawn into a lengthy war. But isn’t that what Bush thought before Iraq & LBJ before Vietnam? Wars are risky & unpredictable.The US should engage in them only if it absolutely has to. There is no reason to think this war is necessary. wapo.st/4seF5K1
Sen. Chris Coons, top Dem on Senate appropriations subcommittee on defense:
"Less than 5 years after the end of the longest war in American history, the U.S. is once again staring down another open-ended conflict ... in the Middle East that could cost the lives of many American service members."
Who wants to land at Serial Sexual Abuser Airport? Or is it I Staged An Unsuccessful Coup Transit Center?
Some day we'll all regret this & we'll hold hearings & rend garments & pledge "never again" & we'll be just as full of shit as we were last time.
A lot of people, including me, were wondering how an IRB could ever approve this study.
The answer is that no IRB did. The person who “signed off” on approval from the only ethics board that reviewed it had resigned three years earlier. His signature was used without his knowledge.
A disgusting nightmare, on every level conceivable.
Trashing the biosphere, the lives of billions of sentient beings, people's health, and their - how to call it - 'spiritual cores'?
Is it possible to mindlessly consume countless desperately suffering animals with zero psychological hit?
“She has a message for other tourists considering a trip to America:
“‘Don’t go – not with Trump in charge. It’s totally out of control over there. There’s no accountability. They don’t seem to need a reason for detaining you.’”
Detectives investigating Andrew have asked the FBI and DOJ for unredacted copies of the Epstein Files, via the National Crime Agency.
The constant effort to name everything for himself goes beyond his malignant self-importance. He wants us to pay for the branding rights, too.
With Trump, it’s always a grift for himself.
Yesterday, those who teach Intro to Sociology at Florida colleges (as opposed to universities) received a ready-made curriculum from the state and were ordered to teach it.
Yes, you read that correctly. The *state* is enforcing a curriculum on college profs, complete w/ the following restrictions:
I honestly think one reason Millennials are so angry about all this is that many of us grew up during the brief period in American history where the official line was that we had won history *because* of our values, and most of us actually internalized that.
You’ve got to click through to really be able to read this, but note that the box on the top right says this will actually be a two-level facility, with around 5,200 beds on the ground floor (if I’m reading the blurry text right) and around 3,100 on the “mezzanine.”
Trump should have to testify too. Read this & act: It’s time to stop protecting rich and powerful men who rape children and others who made that possible, whoever they are. Later this month, Bill and Hillary Clinton will testify on Capitol Hill. joycevance.substack.com/p/arresting-...

The “Board of Peace” in one paragraph, from @economist.com
Michelle Cowley, a London-based communications specialist, and her husband spent nearly two years planning a $16,000 vacation to Walt Disney World in Florida. Then their children, ages 7 and 11, heard about Renee Good and Alex Pretti being killed by ICE agents and didn’t want to go.

In addition to being absolutely brilliant, amazing & charming in her own right, we all know she was raised by a single dad w/4 siblings and that he came to the US bc of persecution bc of his participation in the ‘89 Tiananmen democracy uprising, right?
The public needs to realize that at 250 feet high, the proposed Arc de Trump would be *more than twice as tall* as the Lincoln Memorial.

Astonishing malpractice by Musk, DOGE and 2 incompetents. Plus another reason to hate ChatGPT. Thanks to the @authorsguild.org for exposing. 🙏 they win their case.
