The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.
I feel like being a junior engineer rn must be harrowing; I had a PR fail CI, so the company's AI tooling hallucinated that the failure was due to a totally unrelated test and auto-generated a PR that fixed it by *removing* said test. imagine if you didn't know what was going on and just merged it?
Doesn’t mean it accepts the results
starmer is doing all the anti-immigrant and anti-trans "popularism" stuff the centrists are demanding US dems do and this is the predictable result:
Kathryn Bigelow’s ‘A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE’ debuts at 92% on Rotten Tomatoes. In select theaters October and on Netflix October 24.
Will “House of Dynamite” wake up the global public? “How can we call this ’defense’ when the inevitable outcome is total destruction? I wanted to make a film that confronts this paradox—to explore the madness of a world that lives under the constant shadow of annihilation, yet rarely speaks of it.”
You want it, you need it, you have been living for it: My “House of Dynamite” review. www.rogerebert.com/reviews/a-ho...
Reviews are in from the Venice premiere of Park Chan-wook's No Other Choice. www.metacritic.com/movie/no-oth... “It may not be Park’s masterpiece but it is the best film in the Venice competition so far.” - Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian
Reviews are in from the Telluride premiere of Chloé Zhao’s Hamnet starring Paul Mescal & Jessie Buckley. See it in theaters November 27. www.metacritic.com/movie/hamnet/ “Hamnet is devastating, maybe the most emotionally shattering movie I’ve seen in years.” - Bilge Ebiri, Vulture
Reviews are in from the Venice premiere of Jim Jarmusch’s Father Mother Sister Brother starring Adam Driver, Cate Blanchett, Vicky Krieps, Charlotte Rampling & Tom Waits. www.metacritic.com/movie/father...

So you need two people and the AI to do what used to be the job of one writer or one graphic designer. Sounds efficient.
Aw, man. A great Canadian: his presence was so strong, no matter what he did. Rest in peace.

The tempo of Russia's 'de-militarization of Ukraine' three and a half years into the full-scale war is so impressive that Ukraine is now particularly producing and using its own newly designed longer-range cruise missiles.
Oskee wee wee!!
And wouldn’t shock me if Szobo dominated there too…
💯
Dude! Didn’t know you were here! What a time to be a Reds fan this past decade and now the next one! 🙌
#LFC can now alternate any of Isak, Ekitike, Gakpo and the reigning PFA POTY in Salah, with Wirtz and Szoboslai just behind in attack… rotate for league matches, UCL, FA cup and league cup … with a supporting crew of Chiesa, Ngumoha. And Elliot, Jones, … just wow !
Hard to argue that at this point
Seems unlikely
I was never in the cult but not a fan of them, but my lord have they proven my doubts wrong…
Mon Dieu!! Isak is the one, the true talisman up front…. Not sure this club has been this big in my lifetime… #YNWA #LFC

Dominik Szoboszlai is only the third Liverpool player to score a direct free-kick winner in a 1-0 Premier League win, after Danny Murphy v Man Utd in December 2000 and Xabi Alonso v Sunderland in August 2005. #LFC
SZOBOSZLAI.........Trent who???👊💥🍻🍻🍻
Szobo at right back has been a revelation
3 - Felix Auger Aliassime has become the third Canadian since 1973 to defeat an ATP top five opponent at a Grand Slam after Milos Raonic and Denis Shapovalov – both Raonic and Shapovalov achieved the feat against Alexander Zverev. Scalp. #USOpen
Félix fucked him up real good. Absolutely love to see it
Felix Auger-Aliassime defeats Alexander Zverev playing the best I have seen him play in a very long time. I will never forget this reaction he had after holding a game in his match against Billy Harris. He wasn’t playing this well but he was finding this form. #USOpen 🎾
Was too nervous to breathe let alone type 😬 FelixNation we used to dream of times like these. The Felix renaissance starts with taking out the Zvermin 🐀! I’m flabbergasted MY FLABBERS ARE GASTED FELIX 🐐!
Felix lfg!!!! #USOpen

VICTIMS OF JEFFREY EPSTEIN AND GHISLAINE MAXWELL will be speaking to the public at a press conference on Wednesday, Sept 3rd at 10:30 AM EST at the House Triangle in Washington, DC. They will be calling for legislation to force Trump to release the Epstein files in full. Articles⬇️

Nigel Farage says he hates Europe but all his children, which have European mothers, have EU passports not British ones. He is a disgraceful fraud everything he says is a lie.

One thing about never-Trump Republicans, during Trump II particularly: They understand that the world they knew is dead. They have no investment in either reviving the former GOP (because they understand it's impossible) or maintaining the pre-2016 Democratic Party (because it's not their party).
🤮
An entire system was built to traffic and rape children, and the powerful who benefited are still protected. Survivors carry that pain every day while abusers walk free — and we treat it as normal. That’s complicity. If we can’t keep children safe then WTF are we doing as humans even? #Pinks

Terrible decision out of Saskatchewan today. There are so many better things to spend $1 billion on than keeping polluting, asthma-causing, coal plants open. Literally any other course of action would make more sense than this.

I realize now that I have a “trade deficit” with the store across the street. I walked over and bought a jug of milk. The store is abusing me and I’m tired of subsidizing it by buying something at a fair price that I want. I’m going to apply a tariff that will raise the future price of milk for me.

Breaking! City of Burnaby just became first city in Canada to join arms embargo movement against Israel AND the first Apartheid-Free City, breaking ties with Israeli apartheid and settler colonialism. We've been organizing for months towards this precedent in colonial Canada.
Maybe the Jays need to put one of their 19 excellent starters in the bullpen…
If Sam Altman is allowed to exist after the AI bubble pops, he will be an even bigger scourge for the next quarter century than the dot com bubble cockroaches like thiel and elon have been
This Josh Ross song that they keep advertising on Jays games sounds like literally the worst song ever recorded. Perhaps America can keep him.
Dear journalists: The President has not fired Lisa Cook. The President is trying to illegally fire her. Your words shape reality — get it right.

Imagine picking a “businessman” to be your leader, but instead of a great businessman, or even a good one, you pick the absolute worst one…I mean, the laughing stock of his sector (land dev’t), known for many bankruptcies, cheating people, crooked deals, etc. Now imagine letting him be a dictator.

History's worst tyrants established "special" military units to supress civilian opponents - and all justified it on the basis of asserting "law and order". Trump National Guard deployments and inevitable domestic US Military deployments are a textbook example of this tyrannical authoritarianism.
George Retes is now suing the Trump administration after being detained by ICE for three days and three nights without explanation. “These are basic violations of George’s federal constitutional rights and his rights under California law," said Retes' lawyer. #AbuseofPowerWatch
Another Black woman holding the line.
Donald Trump is waging a fascist takeover of the United States. Democrats are responding the only way they know how: by heeding the advice of the wonks who helped get them into this situation — and whose advice is to avoid discussing what Trump is doing. More: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
Just signed up. I'm so friggin excited.
To be clear, this is the ball game for Federal Reserve independence. If Trump can decide what constitutes "for cause" basis for firing, then every Fed board member can be fired until he has a Board that is completely acquiescent to his every demand. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/trump-uses...
It's important to understand that he singles out Black women because there are few negative consequences for him when he does. It's his most frictionless lane for bullying. The broader public has shown him few, if any, will step up to defend us, and it's only ramped up since his first term.

The US dictator is going to use the US Military to illegally invade US cities in blue states, clearly breaking the US Constitution (again), using crime as a ridiculous excuse, even tho red states have much higher crime (it would still be illegal even if there was a crime crisis, which there isn’t).
The prolonged public torturing of a single man because the state cannot admit to its errors is not something that occurs in a free country
An M.I.T. study found that 95% of companies that had invested in A.I. tools were seeing zero return. It jibes with the emerging idea that generative A.I., “in its current incarnation, simply isn’t all it’s been cracked up to be,” johncassidysays.bsky.social writes.

🇭🇺 Dominik Szoboszlai vs Newcastle: - 4 clearances - 4 recoveries - 100% tackles won - 39/44 passes completed - 10 passes into the final third What a shift at right-back 💪
Rio Ngumoha. The youngest player in Premier League history to score the winning goal. #LFC
🇳🇱 Virgil van Dijk made the most clearances (14) and completed the most passes (51) vs Newcastle. Won 7/11 duels, including 6/9 aerial duels. Phenomenal performance from the captain.
Rio Ngumoha: Get to know Liverpool’s teenage sensation ready to star in Premier League
Youngest players to score on league debut for #LFC: Rio Ngumoha - 16y 361d Michael Owen - 17y 143d Jimmy Melia - 18y 46d Jamie Redknapp - 18y 165d Phil Taylor - 18y 192d
Full time! What a game that was! One of the best second halves of football I’ve ever watched. Newcastle down 2-0 and down to 10 men to bring it to 2-2 and fully fair play to them. And right into the deep depths of stoppage time, Rio Ngumoha scores an incredible winner! #lfc #newliv
If you want to get a result against Liverpool get a man sent off as early as possible and watch one of the most aggressive teams in the world go into a tentative shell and look like crap
Are Reds down a man?! #ynwa #lfc
You will never see a great team be as bad against 10 men as modern Liverpool
Liverpool very poor today. This squad needs major work. Appalling effort. #ynwa #lfc
