@jalcine I'd call using community knowledge to train LLMs that will then produce misinformation an extraordinary circumstance.

This isn't the decade in which I'd expect to recommend an opinion piece in the New York Times, but Jonathan Alter has a brilliant idea. Instead of jailing #Trump for contempt so he can release his ghostwritten version of Mein Kampf, which I'm sure Stephen Miller has ready to go, make him pick up trash in New York City parks every Wednesday.

Trump can spend his next thousand dollar penalty buying himself a gold-plated pooper scooper.

no one has ever typed the words “with all due respect” and meant it

@NapVeg It can be zero.

But honestly, if I said "with all due respect" to some people, Donald Trump for example, it would be more courtesy than they're entitled to. So you have a good point after all

Tyler McBrien::

Necheles rises to renew Trump's objection to Daniels testifying about any "sexual details," which she says has no relevance and is prejudicial.
By details, Merchan asks, more than just "we had sex"? Yes, Necheles says.

@GottaLaff Bombshell to me: Donald Trump parties with Ben Roethlisberger, who has also been accused multiple times of sexual assault, including the rape of /a casino employee in Lake Tahoe/ (two years after the Trump-Daniels encounter) and paid the woman in a civil suit settlement after losing in the Nevada Supreme Court.

@majorlinux Trump needs to have fines increase for every violation. Maybe Merchan can explain the story of the rice grains on the chess board.

Or, because Trump never actually pays for things, require every fine be paid in cash right there in the courtroom, and if the Don doesn't have it he can spend the night in jail.

Samuel L. Jackson is 100% for real. He didn't just get sent to LA because of some playground bullies; he got sent because the FBI said he had a year to live.

And good luck to all the student protesters over Summer break.

Folks, please read the before boosting. If it sucks, let's not pass it along.

(Subtoot after seeing a 5-panel comic that only OCRed the last panel and wasn't proofread, then another where the alt text was a generic image description like "a group of people" without context or the image text.)

How to identify undercover pigs

@LinuxAndYarn@mastodon.social avatar

@benjancewicz I was at an event where neonazis were outside a library, screaming at them to fuck off back to Maryland, and wound up talking to a guy with a country music baseball cap who was taking photos of them. And when he put his camera to the side I could see a label on it that said "property of Philadelphia Police Department."

Also me: Constantly buying hair ties and putting them in the pockets of all my jackets and bags so I won't be caught out in the wind or get hair in my mouth when eating.

What a lot of people don’t understand is that I don’t go to the gym to become big.

I pump iron because strictly dieting doesn’t work for me, and I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m going to get myself to health simply by eating less.

I’m 225lbs right now but I look leaner. I can now wear regular clothes without looking self-conscious. I no longer have back aches and I can do regular activities without feeling exhausted.

There still is awkwardness, though. When I sleep, I must put a pillow over my shoulder because otherwise, it feels like my head is sleeping on a rock.

@atomicpoet muscle us denser than fat, so even though you're getting fitter you may not lose weight.

That's why Weight Watchers is so toxic, and why 20 years ago I only hit my goal weight (high school +20 pounds) with them after having a two week flu.

Upon finding out 99% of NYU protesters were indeed students, Republican Councilwoman Vickie Paladino decided they all have to die.

It feels like Democrats should stop helping these people in their war on students and higher education?

LinuxAndYarn,
@LinuxAndYarn@mastodon.social avatar

@gwynnion The only thing that amazes me about Vickie Paladino is that she's not related to unhinged Buffalo fascist Carl Paladino. Republican voters in Queens might not know that but certainly don't care, so long as she's cruel enough for Fox.
