Just got an email announcing that Princeton is offering ChatGPT accounts to all undergrads next semester. Looking forward to other helpful innovations lIke giving them unlimited heroin or free handguns

AI graduates from learning degradation and emotional psychosis to killing people who listen to it.

Every time I see a fashion shot and think that the industry couldn't get any more shallow, stupid, or vacuous.... Hold my beer......

So much losing Grand Jury Declines to Bring Charges Against Cassidy Hutchinson The rejection of the indictment was the latest extraordinary setback in President Trump’s wide-ranging campaign to go after his political opponents.

The Founding Fathers are rolling in their graves with these lies in service of an unconstitutional war that Congressional Republicans have let happen by abdicating their Article I powers.

Ask any ACTUAL TEACHER, they will tell you how separating teens from devices literally designed to capture their attention is the only way to get their attention on learning. But no, sit outside the classroom in the cheap seats and pontificate about the woes of rules that help kids learn. GMAFB

The cost of home heating oil spiked dramatically this year, hitting an average of $6.19 per gallon as of Oct. 19, according to the Energy Information Administration. It was $3.60 per gallon last year, meaning it’s increased by more than 70%.”

Cuz we all LOVE ads.... ”But the Senate is up for grabs. Democrats see multiple paths to victory, although Republicans are pouring staggering amounts of money into close races in red states. Republicans are counting on that final blitz of TV ads to blunt the Democratic tide.”

Agreed plus the total contempt for voters paying higher prices after he promised the opposite.

Early voting just crossed 30 million That’s 30 million Americans casting ballots before Election Day, while Trump’s DOJ unsuccesfully runs around trying to throw ballots out The courts are one line of defense -- the ballot box is the strongest one, & your vote is how we hold it -TN

Classic Brooksian political idiocy.

Someone thought US mayors could sabotage public transport on election day. My reply: "Republican mayors preside over towns with almost no public transportation. Wherever people gather in larger numbers, they almost inevitably vote Democratic. USPS sabotage will fuck over red state voters, LOL.

When you do this to other humans beings, you don't stand for anything except ugly, naked brute force. A sad moral outcome for this endlessly tragic storyline.

Imagine how often this process has been repeated since mid-2025.

The hat trick of social media sins: 1. Crank out bad "hot takes" for clickbait 2. Ignore critics who point out your factual errors 3. Carry on as if nothing ever happened In PFT's case, it's corporate media, so don't expect a shred of integrity there to begin with. Legacy media is mostly shit.

LOTS of VERY important data in this study...

Anyone else never gonna be able to unsee this? Or just us?

Waiting for the new batch of “has the GOP under Trump become the party of the working class?” think pieces.

"Hurry along now, darling, the Cheesecake Factory reservation is in twenty minutes, and you know they won't hold it"

Very scary shit.

This is what PFT runs a whole story for, to claim it was a strip sack. Who has control of the ball then the QB's knee touches? How many times per game do defenders TRY to strip a ball the runner is holding firmly? Pfffffffffffffffffffffft indeed.

Hmmm, I'm looking for the rioters and not seeing them.....

Nature doesn't care what anyone believes.

But....but......where are all the dead and wounded that Florio warned us about? How it was so insane not to try to move the game at the last second to another country? ROFLMAO

The dumbest takes are MAGA trying to claim Obama’s line about Trump making the WH look like a Cheesecake Factory is somehow elitist because CF fans will be offended that someone doesn’t want the WH to look like a chain restaurant. Even their culture war BS is lame this cycle.

Maybe his closing message of racism, fomenting violence, lying about voter fraud, and bragging about his medical team repeatedly asking him to take dementia tests is proving unpopular?

Obama: "That well-known evil empire Canada. That historical adversary of ours. Canada! *laughs* It's your neighbor. It's a few minutes' drive over the bridge! These are the people who gave us Martin Short and maple syrup. They are the nicest people! And someone we've gotten them so mad."

On a regular basis here, someone I follow but really wonder if they are worth the time for their content will finally do or say something that just crystallizes the argument. Zap. Simple rule in life - don't respect people unless you can respect their words and actions. No reason to.

NEW on @zeteo.com — Venues are *pulling out* of hosting Vivek Ramaswamy for his bus tour across Ohio in the closing days of the election. “We’re getting calls that people don’t want him there,” a top Ohio Republican says. “It’s that damn ad.” From @andrewperez.bsky.social and @swin24.bsky.social:

Don't waste your time listening to podcasts. Terrible way to take in information, listening to people babble and wander and drone and talk in circles and say they're gonna get to a point but when they do if they do it's kinda not the same point and you can't remember WTF it's all about anyway.

This gibbering moron's political rhetoric is a fourth-grader standing at the edge of an elementary school blacktop yelling the first shard of juvenilia that floats into his head. And he is the President of the United States. We are so debased before the world.

Too true. Between appetizer and entree at the Old Ebbitt Grill two weeks ago, not only was I jacked up by a street gang for a watch and wallet, but then, as I was waiting, bereft, for a dessert menu, my youngest child was taken away by the kitchen staff and transitioned without informing me.

"Consulting firm income rises with spending, not with success. A consultant who places $20 million in ineffective ads earns twice as much as one who places $10 million in highly effective ads. The incentive is to maximize spending, not win elections."

Just go vote early in person and let the USPS screw the rural Republican voters who rely on it so much. Win-win. And you won't spend more than a few minutes start to finish.

Finally someone exposes the racket going on.

OBAMA: He's got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory. It's gold everywhere.

There are people who do security for a living, the hands on professionals who know every nook and cranny of their business. Then there are rubberneckers on the sidelines pretending to be security experts. Florio is a talking NFL head, no security or sports management experience. Painfully obvious.
