They either didn't know Iran would shut down the Strait of Hormuz or they knew and didn't have a plan.
Either way - just totally clear they don't give a damn about what this war means for hardworking Americans.
oh, no did another new bad thing just happen
"1/4 X"????????????????
Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.
Silicon Valley's long-standing practice of rewarding amorality with funding really needs to be stopped.
And I rarely experience the feeling of being pissed, let me tell you...
This whole AI situation is really pissing me off
Threads thread: thriller_instinct 3d Is it okay to bully 40 and 50 year olds who are on social media just for being on it, cuz like why are you here - 254 Q 3.1K G 28 746 corporateash 18h ••• My ICQ UIN is 7231680. That number is burned into my consciousness. I inadvertently learned that you could see private conversations in public chat rooms when using Telnet instead of a browser on GeoCities.

“I have usernames older than you.”.
Holy shit
When I was a teen growing up in Vegas, The Strip went dark for an hour to honor Earth Day. This is that.
oooooof
You're FIRED.
Good riddance, Kristi Noem.
Honestly? "Ai has had a transformative effect on coding". Did it transform into something good, though?
I'm just not sure I believe it, given that ai is bad at everything I know how to do, and tech is worse now than it was a few years ago.
A democratic candidate just won in the *checks notes*
Arkansas state house special election.
Flip from R to D.
A not-so-fun activity is to check if someone boosting AI has a monetary stake in its success.
unreal and gross
"The trade was not that you were getting exposed to geopolitics when moving to Dubai."
For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were.
These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War.
Capt. Cody A. Khork, 35
Sgt. 1st Class Noah L. Tietjens, 42
Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39
Sgt. Declan J. Coady, 20
When you think about it for more than 5 seconds, it really is both insane and outrageous that *HILLARY CLINTON* - a woman who apparently has never met with nor corresponded with Jeffrey Epstein was one of the first people deposed.
Next new trend: drinking water
I know it’s difficult right now, but I insist that you seek and enjoy beautiful things, even if it seems frivolous or irresponsible in the face of overwhelming horror. I want you to feed yourself artistically, spiritually, and literally, because you can’t Do The Work when you’re starving.
They won't start with banning birth control. First they'll lie about it. Then dictate who can prescribe it, use it, fund it, in what forms, and for how long. Suddenly, your doctor won't call you back. I know this is what they'll do because it's what they're doing to transgender healthcare right now.
For Trump, a military conflict with Iran would distract from:
-Epstein files
-His deadly deportation agenda
-Losing on tariffs at SCOTUS
-Tanking polls
-His devastating (and unpopular) budget bill
-Millions of people protesting his authoritarianism
When he's cornered, he lashes out. Be warned.

Yesterday I saw @hcrichardson.bsky.social say how astounding it is that the US - founded to flee British tyranny - is currently demanding less accountability than the British monarchy is of its own royal family. Stunning.

Trump abused his authority. The power of the purse doesn’t belong to one person — tariffs are a tax, and any decision to levy the American people must be made by Congress alone. It wasn’t here, and working families paid the price.
The federal government must return the money it stole to the people.
Just in: 50 parents and transgender activists have blockaded the HHS Building in protest of sweeping new rules that could ban trans youth nationwide.
24 were then arrested.
This is the kind of action we need.

Email from Epstein to Goertzel: "free and home" Goertzel replies: ";-))) Congratulations!!!! Actually, I was just about to send you an email summarizing my recent progress, current situation, and future hypothetical plans...I'll probably do so tomorrow. I'm sure you're super-swamped, but it would be great to get together when you have the chance... ben" Goertzel continues: "p.s. Also, the Singularity Summit (futurist conference, but with some good scientific speakers this year) will be in NY this year, Oct 3-4...and Oct 5-6, afterwards, there will be a brainstorming workshop I think you might enjoy (where, basically, the ~20 speakers from the Summit will get together and try to make conceptual progress on various future-science issues). I'll remind you again when the date gets closer!"
Ben Goertzel, popularizer of the term AGI and creator of the Sophia robot, congratulating Jeffrey Epstein the day after Epstein was released from prison.
Goertzel is mentioned in the files nearly 800 times, including well after the Miami Herald investigation in 2018.
Seems bad that when you open it, it says you should always "verify the answers".
... the report is RIGHT THERE. Why do you need this garbage, IEA?
