everyone who posts anything like 'omg i talked with chatgpt and it changed my life, we're on the cusp of a New Era of perfect intelligence!' should be dragged into the sea and chained to a reef to feed the fish

Our state's abortion restrictions have not only prohibited access to elective pregnancy termination, but they’ve also obstructed the path for timely and medically appropriate care for many Texans experiencing pregnancy complications.

This article was my first big deep dive into healthcare access in a post-Roe Texas for the @TexasObserver. I hope you give it a read:

The kompromat must be really damning: 3/31/23 Lindsey Graham Tweet:

On the way to the DA’s office on Tuesday, Trump should smash some windows, rob a few shops and punch a cop.

He would be released IMMEDIATELY!

my mom woke up in the middle of the night from these powerful explosions. r*ssians terrorized one of the most beautiful Zaporizhzhia suburbs with several missiles hitting the homes of peaceful Ukrainians

r*ssia is a mad death cult.

I wonder if they'll allow Ivanka to make conjugal visits.

I hurt my knee and it’s super swollen and I can’t bend it so I’m headed into an orthopedic express type of thing but first I have to do my hair and put makeup on so that I’m taken seriously and treated with a minimum of respect. This is what it’s like being a woman who needs medical care in America.

Happy #transdayofvisibility. Trans people are beautiful and powerful because we've found our true selves in spite of all the obstacles the world has thrown in our way. I'm proud to be part of this community. 🏳️‍⚧️

No no no no. The actual study showed that COVID vaccines REDUCED all cause mortality. But among those vaccinated who did die (which happened at lesser rates than those who didn't get vaccinated), the AstraZeneca shot was more represented than other vaccines. That's all the study showed. Highly unethical journalism.

Overheard: “I’d love to be a fly on the wall at Mar-a-Lago, but I might be drowned in ketchup by now.”

Actual conversation I just had with my husband…

Me: What do you call those baby cages?
Him: (terrified)
Me: EVERYONE had one.
Him: (more terrified)
Me: Oh! Playpen!

Caught on camera.

This tufted titmouse was caught with a sunflower seed. I guarantee, it was only at the feeder for a second or two. I like the deer in the headlights look.

"Tufted Titmice nest in tree holes (and nest boxes), but they can’t excavate their own nest cavities. Instead, they use natural holes and cavities left by woodpeckers. These species’ dependence on dead wood for their homes is one reason why it’s important to allow dead trees to remain in forests rather than cutting them down." - allaboutbird.org

This is actually false, New York Times. Ex-presidents have never been “shielded from indictment.” There is no “taboo.”

Ex-presidents have always been subject to prosecution for their crimes. Vice-presidents, state governors, and congressmen have all been indicted and even imprisoned.

Only one thing is new here: an incorrigible career criminal became president.

In all the excitement over #ChatGPT and other generative #AI tools, the paranoid #security side of me always cringes when I see people saying “ChatGPT was an amazing way to summarize the notes of my team meeting!”

Do they not realize the fact that they have just given ** internal, corporate, proprietary ** information to a LLM for…. *training data*! 🤦‍♂️

How long will it be until someone gets an output from ChatGPT that includes someone else’s internal info? 😱

@StillIRise1963 saw this post on FB minutes before I saw your toot. Missed the time stamp. Love the photo.

But if we hold ONE rich white man accountable for his crimes, what’s next? Holding SOME rich white men accountable for their crimes? Holding ALL rich white men accountable for their crimes? It’s a slippery slope.

#vote because your children's lives depend on you. #republicans no longer card about your's, only their's.

The truth is, idgaf about Gwyneth Paltrow.

Wow this is very information dense from @nytimes

@QasimRashid As long as they can get away with it, they will.

@ljrk

Don't tell Donald Trump, but I just saw Karma buying a 19 inch strap-on.
