When I was in Cincinnati, it was definitely Skyline Chili, something I have to get every time I go back to visit.

I do dream of software, and I can't code anything I can imagine either with or without AI, but I can do more without because I'm not just constantly rearranging the same shit someone else already made
Couldn’t resist. Cracked into the @protopasta.bsky.social Dragonfruit Smoothie. I have a lot of filament to hand out to the Chicago area people in the whistle group.

Protopasta has given out like _300 Kg_ through this.
I got suspended in high school for hacking the account of a teacher whose class I wasn't in to try and make friends. (It was unsuccessful.)
I'll be honest, I don't follow NIMBY folks enough to have ever seen that, but anyone who made that argument sounds both real dumb, and also like someone just making an excuse.
(I'm also in Chicago, where the arguments against building are seemingly always just "but where will all the cars go???")
Sometimes you have to oppose algorithmic collusion just because it's bad, even if it doesn't solve all of your problems.
"But I was turned away because it was Republican voting only."
Forgive my ignorance as someone from Illinois, but... is this a thing that is in any way normal prior to this election? That sounds insane, but curious if this is a new type of insanity or just something I've been sheltered from
for the @chicagoreader.com's 2025 best of chicago issue, i wrote about cops!
for the best conglomeration of local police to protect a murderous army of federal agents, look no further than the unified command of broadview, illinois.
Given the fuckery with voting that specifically targeted Crockett's base, it's unlikely to have a concession that soon. Talarico should 100% be joining a case with her, because we want as many Democratic votes counted as possible, we don't want any candidates to win because of disenfranchisement.
i am extremely proud to announce my latest work
i flew out to Brooklyn on Sunday, filmed this performance that evening, flew back the next morning, and just completed my coverage two days later
i'd be honored if you read my latest journalism work

I just today started getting flooded with Adam Braun ads, too. Apparently he has pro-AI and pro-Sports Gambling superpacs finding his ads, and that race has a lot less polling to know if I need to strategically vote to avoid that fate, it if I can vote @demiforillinois.bsky.social without worrying
It's been a minute since I've seen it, but that kinda felt like the theme of The Butterfly Effect? (Not the first timeline, but after, everything seemingly was, but also wasn't? That movie was confusing as a teenager.)
So what did you do 1-2 years ago? If the process is too onerous for you to do yourself, then surely there were other, existing tools, that supported the similar work, which is what you should be comparing the efficacy to.
Oh, I was thinking even more direct - the executives are personally invested in the AI companies, and so drive adoption to inflate their personal investments because they can force everyone at their company to use them, and thus drive up the "adoption hype"/investment price.
I honestly think one of the bigger reasons for this is that venture capital largely comes from... tech executives. So I'm not even convinced that they were tricked, I think this was just a technology that they had direct influence over adoption of and could use to juice their own portfolios.
And you still aren't! If it was doing that, it could be helpful. Unfortunately, those don't exist in an easily queried database, so instead it's just making those up. It's doing the equivalent of an unskilled person with google and a notetaking fetish.
Luckily, you can look at other details about someone to realize they'd be a great congressperson, too! (It's unfortunate he won't be able to because our district is STACKED with good candidates this year, but I'd be thrilled with him regardless.)
... current "enforcement" is actually trying to address that, because its not something unique to kids, it's something that everyone is vulnerable to, and it's way harder to legislate "don't provide a worse product that preys on human cognitive faults" because how the hell would you even define that
...AI sycophancy, gambling on everything, and the general wholesale enshittification of nearly everything online, as every company finds a way to bypass "proving value to users" in favor of "getting the users to not consciously make a decision".
Slop is Doritos for our minds, but none of the...
The same dark patterns that exploit reward seeking behavior being present in everything, rather than just social media, is a good way to point out that the current enforcement regime is inauthentic, but it feels disingenuous to claim that it's not harmful to users, either.
That's what brought us
Lots of neighborhood support (window/yard signs) for Kat, but definitely less when it comes to flyers/other ads.
Oh, I was specifically talking about the ad she mentioned here. This one was done by the same AIPAC backed group that also pushed attack ads against Biss.
I do live in her district, and I've not seen a ton of anti-Kat ads yet, most of the spending that I've seen has been pro/anti-Biss/Fine.
This was supposedly in favor of Fine, but not trying to get people to vote for Fine, they're trying to scare voters for her into voting for one of the candidates who isn't going to win.
This reads like the left equivalent of every pundit who talks about what "real Americans" are interested in, which conveniently labels every American who lives in a city as "not a real American".
I'd say the people insulting our political opponents want us to win more than our base.
The ad focuses on opinions she had at 17
Haha okay, that makes more sense. I was frantically googling and could only find speculations around random Instagram posts
Wait, what? Is this a thing that's happening?
If I reshare something that’s AI. Tell me. I’m correctable. I won’t crash out on you.
I've only heard this implicitly, but I'm fairly certain that demons have a pretty severe salt allergy, since you want to use that in all of your summoning to prevent escape.
It's never been clear if this is a mental illness (a la Blindsight vampires and right angles) or a physical ailment, though.
A couple in heavy winter coats standing in front of a waterfall in Iceland near a cliff face next to a railing. The ground is covered in snow. Neither looks like they plan on attacking each other on top of an iceberg.
A couple sitting on top of a pair of Icelandic horses, amid a muddy looking landscape. Both people are wearing bright orange pants and those sorta fabric-y horse helmets, for SAFETY. Neither person appears to be planning for iceberg-top combat.
A beach with black sand and large chunks of ice pretty far up the shore. None of these were words I thought went together, but it looks pretty cool? There are strangers in the distance also admiring the alien-feeling of this location.
A couple with orange helmets, feet spikes, and ice pickaxes totally for real attacking each other on top of an iceberg. Clearly, some sort of brain infecting virus has escaped from the melting iceberg and infected their pathetic human brains, driving them to aggression and violence, and it's not just a goofy staged photo because iceberg safety tools are just bunches of metal spikes everywhere.
