This was always going to happen: Trump, and the Supreme Court, turned DOJ into an extension of the president's will. Now, judges trust DOJ about as far as they can throw it.
The immunity decision and unitary executive theory breed corruption and ineffectiveness.

I met with AI data labelers in Kenya who are organizing their colleagues to fight the brutal working conditions and horrible pay given to the workers at the "bottom of the AI supply chain." They believe the NDAs they've signed are unenforceable so are speaking out:

Someone should ask Mayor Mamdani at his press conference if he intends to direct H+H to absorb the trans youth patients from NYU Langone and other regional hospitals that illegally ended care, and if he plans to hold them accountable with NYCβs human rights ordinances.
He still has no comment.
lmao the large scale cultural mortification of having our intellectual advances shitcanned by a child whose balls audibly have not dropped yet
And this practice of releasing people to the street in the cold can be deadly.
Nearly six months behind bars. No bail. When they finally dismissed the charges they released her in North Dakota with no winter clothes & no means of getting back home to Tennessee. They upended this woman's life.
I couldn't be a part of this. Staying would just affirm what I think of as a deeply corrupt practice that is also an invasion of my privacy.
why did we even domesticate peeves
Mark my words--- Polymarket and other predictive market schemes have the potential to become a serious threat to press freedom/journalists.
how ironic to see the state protect two people who sought to strip the state while working under the direction of elon musk, who has made it impossible to seek recourse when people get death threats and harassment on twitter

Minnesota Frost fan on the zamboni has a sign reading No ICE, no war, no kings, which was immediately taken off the big screen once it was shown on camera.
Fans continue to let out cheers, but just began booing as a team official removed it on the ice.
A woman in a light purple wig sits in passenger seat of zamboni, holding a banner which states "no ICE, no more, no kings, no fear" in same font and colors as Minnesota Frost team iconography.
Absolute Queen behavior from the Zamboni Rider today at the Minnesota Frost game.
No ICE
No War
No Kings
No Fear.
well heck them too
The government asked a judge to stop the spread of the videos on YouTube. The judge agreed, and ordered their immediate removal.
A ladder placed safely on the ground. Five black cats sit upon the ladder like they're in some kind of children's story about black cats. The text reads: Friday the 13th when you always land on your feet. If you are not a cat: Place your ladder on a firm, flat surface. Always have a spotter.
Five black cats upon a ladder sat,
something something always have a spotter.
you just fell victim to one of the classic blunders, detective. the most famous is "never get involved in a land war in Seol." but only slightly less well-known is: "Never fuck with Kim Kitsuragi."
mathew @mathew@universeodon.com The orphan-crushing machine is just a tool. You can also use it to mulch puppies and purΓ©e kittens. Why are you angry? You can use it for harmless tasks like making mashed potatoes. You eat mashed potatoes don't you? Yes, admittedly it leaks machine oil into the potatoes, but they're working on that. It leaks so much less oil than it did when you tried it three months ago. In a year from now it's going to be a Michelin-starred chef. Well, thatβs typical, gatekeeping by telling people they should have to learn to cook. You donβt think people who canβt cook deserve good food? So what if the machine is powered by slave labor? That's innovation. You're just scared you're going to be one of them. Besides, it's inevitable. Nobody is going to crush orphans by hand any more. You're going to get left behind. Oh, well there you go with your ridiculous purity culture again.
Aye if anyone who follows me lives in ATL yall got the Ava Coleman of politics coming your way.

Bowen Yang from that one SNL sketch where he says "I don't want to be funny, I want to be hot" but edited to read "I don't want to be one of the most brilliant lights of our age, I want a huge fat ass"
This is exactly how Putin became one of the wealthiest men in the world. He got a cut of every major industry. That's exactly what is going on here.
