Studying, writing on, & warning about the Christian Supremacist right since 2004. Before that, in late 90s I warned of global warming. Now, I'm hunkering down to weather the storm, & raising giant isopods in my basement, for fun and profit.
Why stop there? They need to glue those gold-painted plastic Temu thingys over every square foot and paste up, in giant golden cursive letters, "The Donald Trump White House" to proclaim such magnificence to the heavens.

Eating Lead paint chips helped Mike Huckabee's political career? Dunno, but poisoning America w/Leaded gasoline helped fuel the rise of America's modern religious right which gave us Trump. The brains of infants & young children are VERY sensitive to Lead, which esp. damages the development of...
Soon, Republican fathers will burn their own daughters, for witchcraft.
Will *any* Democrat have the courage to tell people not to grow a prehensile tail?
Fortunately, we have photographic evidence of this sick act of terrorist vandalism while it was in progress. Let's hope the culprits - whose heinous acts have now killed BABY DUCKS! - are brought to justice.
What if the plot originated in the White House and among the richest men in America.
Yes, AP, flushing about $1/2 trillion of taxpayer dollars down the toilet to achieve a much worse outcome than Obama did (without murdering schoolgirls, flushing U.S. taxpayer $ down the toilet, or empowering Iranian religious zealots) *clearly* puts wind in Trump's sails.
NPR brings a sober, balanced perspective to bear on this historic event.
But wait - we've made it better than ever! Now, you can purchase our 2nd product that corrects (mostly, we hope) the inherent flaws of our 1st product !
There certainly are tasks at which AI excels. Writing legal briefs, for example.
If we ran public schools the way Jeff Bezos runs Amazon, teachers would be shitting in school closets b/c they didn't have time to get to the bathrooms, they'd be retiring in droves from work-related repetitive motion injuries, they'd be bulldozing students, who failed their tests, into landfills.
Opus 4.8 (the very latest LLM from Anthropic) responds to a particularly tricky question, "How many days in the week have the letter "d" in them?" AI is going to change EVERYTHING!
Of *course* the pedophile in the White House wants to establish a pedo $ slush fund for his fellow pedophiles [whom he has already pardoned for their acts of domestic terrorism.] $1.8 billion ought to do it. www.rawstory.com/andrew-paul-...
I don't believe downloading a browser extension to block Google's AI search and force classic Google amounts to a "major change in how people use the Internet".
"IN the wake of this reprehensible domestic terrorism attack, we must fund oppressed anti-government dissidents fighting for freedom."
The AI industry is an aggressively metastatic tumor on the cancer of late-stage capitalism: hundreds of billions dumped into data centers when there's no electricity to run them and no profit model to justify building them in the 1st place.
Chuck Schumer's imaginary friends "The Baileys" have advised the Senate Minority Leader that this is a good cause to get behind.
Care for some mushroom foraging Russian Roulette? One of these Amazon Kindle eBooks books, "Mushroom Foraging for Beginners", might be real. Or not. But *both* could be AI bullshit that can lead to an agonizing death.
Behold the Might of the Calvinball Court. [The term "Calvinball" was actually used 3 years ago in arguments before SCOWTUS (Supreme Court of the White United States.)] [The Might or, as it were, the Might Not.]
