I don't know what to tell you guys. We have to expand the Court. If we don't expand the Court, no liberal policy will be allowed to exist for the rest of our lives. That's why Republicans stole the court, that's why rich people pay for justices. Govern yourselves accordingly.

I think what gets me most about the "AI art makes making art more ACCESSIBLE" is that... it doesn't. Putting aside the discussions of money and disability wrt creating art... AI does not simulate the experience of creating art. It simulates the experience of commissioning art lol

I've seen a lot of people asking "why does everyone think Twitter is doomed?" As an SRE and sysadmin with 10 years of industry experience, I wanted to write up a few scenarios that are real threats to the integrity of the bird site over the coming weeks.

“In a monumental irony, both Julian Assange…and Edward Snowden…stand charged with the very same crimes that are likely to be brought against Mr. Trump. On both Mr. Assange and Mr. Snowden, Mr. Trump argued that they should be executed.”
