Ossoff: "I think Pete Hegseth is frankly a deeply unwell person who seems to relish this kind of brutality all the while he's running a department that is falling into chaos. The guy cannot run the military competently and is spending his time with this kind of obscene medieval spectacle."

I also find it fucking hilarious that the AI stans are like "your kids will be left behind if they don't use it" as if it's harder to type a prompt into a text box to ask someone else to do your work than it is to read and understand a book or learn mathematics on your own. Foh.

It is remarkable how many Dems in competitive races are not doing the squishy bipartisanship tapioca routine and are instead just letting rip with these guys are a bunch of evil goddamned nazis who want to take all your rights and are also corrupt as fuck.
It’s reading the room, I suppose.

That's the problem, Mike. It's not just that you've hired half the Third Reich to staff your Congressional office, and you have promoted neo-Nazi content online, it's that you're robbing your constituents to subsidize your donors.

It's hard to tell which is weirder: the fact that these guys seriously suggest that models like Claude have consciousness/sentience or that they actually invest time and money (weird!) trying to convince the Pope as well as theologians and legal scholars of this belief.

The core appeal of reactionary politics is hatred of competent and smart people who follow evidence rather than use it to support conclusions.
A million incidents like this happen daily in academia and legal settings, and they're behind almost all right-wing "liberal bias" accusations.

They have lots of ball knowledge. Unfortunately it’s restricted to the Trump-shaped indentations on their chins.
the right's crippling lack of ball knowledge strikes again
holy shit -- turns out Jack Smith went to a Hawkeyes game in Maryland but Schmitt's team is so reckless they concocted a conspiracy theory that Smith was actually in Atlanta seeing a Hawks game and colluding with Fani Willis. Klobuchar points out to Schmitt, "you have your teams wrong."
