Meta has deliberately cut civil rights and civil liberties out of its calculus. As an internal Meta memo reasoned, β€œMany civil society groups that we would expect to attack us would have their resources focused on other concerns.” The company presumably sees a business opportunity in the ongoing assault on American democracy. That’s where Mark Zuckerberg, Meta’s chief executive, is wrong: We are paying attention, and we understand clearly that this technology is part of that very same assault on our rights. We are always ready to fight, and we will continue to defend everyone’s rights β€” from both the government and Big Tech.

It was recently leaked that Meta plans to quietly roll out smart glasses equipped with facial recognition while civil liberties groups like ours are busy dealing with the Trump administration.

They're wrong. We can walk and demand Meta halt production on these creepy glasses at the same time.

Let’s get one thing straight: We are not a Christian nation. We are a nation where you are free to be a Christian.

Your religion guides you, not all of us. It’s as simple as that.

Meanwhile we’re still waiting for our approved FEMA funds here in WNC.

I was given the world’s tiniest pack of tic tacs at a conference today.

He doesn’t see it as a weakness. Just as validation to himself and his sycophants that women don’t belong in places of power.

My question is does that mean the former MMA moron inherits the plane blankie?

Maybe worse. Former MMA fighter that says stupid shit all the time.

It was probably him finding out she spent money on an ad promoting herself instead of him. lmao

Still waiting for someone to ask when the unredacted Epstein files will be released.

I’m old. I coped. Sometimes in healthy ways. Sometimes not. But I’m mostly okay now.

My dad and stepmom are still married, but my mom’s second husband was verbally abusive and it was not fun, unfortunately. Made my childhood fairly fucking miserable, tbh. They eventually divorced.

My dad cheated on my mom with his secretary at work, and after he and my mom divorced and the secretary and her husband divorced, my dad married his secretary within the year, and my mom got married to the secretary’s ex less than a year after that.

It’s nuts. People who believe elitism is okay are not good with Meghan Markle. And the royal family hates her because when you encourage the family scapegoat to set boundaries and keep them, they can’t fathom its because of them.

For the record, our state AG had to sue Noem to get them to release approved funds for WNC storm relief. We won the case, but I still don’t think we’ve seen them yet.

On the flip side of my last skeet, imagine having the plethora of riches these two offered the state of Texas to choose from. Talk about your win-win scenario for Dems.

Imagine voting for the party where you had to choose between these two losers.

Here it is. Maybe it links the same? IDK. I usually alternate one or the other and get what I need. archive.ph

There’s another one, too, that is sometimes less bogged down. Let me see if I can dig up the link.

I fear our dreadful society here is bleeding too much into your home.

I use a lot of archive.is to read news these days.

I love the wildlife in this area. My husband called me this morning thrilled he had seen a red fox on his way to work, and then thrilling in a different way were the mama and baby deer that jumped in front of my car this morning when driving the kid to school. (We didn’t hit them, thankfully.)

Yeah. The β€œheadline only” culture is real when it comes to social media. I’d blame it on paywalls, but people were doing it before then, too.
