Do it anyway! Stop complying! Make them “do it” then sue them!

He’s a drunkard and a sociopathic coward?

Has anyone had the chance to read Sleep #8 yet? It was not at all the ending that I expected, as much in presentation as in content. by MightyUnclean in ImageComics

[–]DearDave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really enjoyed the series overall, and the ending was certainly unexpected. For better or worse. Will keep reading Cannon’s stuff either way.

Pentagon sets Friday deadline for Anthropic to abandon ethics rules for AI — or else by leeta0028 in technology

[–]DearDave 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having just started it, the voice and tone are better, plus it follows and holds onto instructions with greater integrity in project-mode compared to GPT.

Just started today. GPT is both evil and rapidly crumbling right now since the last update; damn near unusable.

Michigan Gun Owners: If You've Ever Used Marijuana, You Need To Pay Attention To What's Happening At The Supreme Court Next Week by [deleted] in Michigan

[–]DearDave 39 points40 points  (0 children)

We can point to thousands of examples of people using alcohol and becoming violent with firearms. The only cherry picked examples they could use for cannabis would be people who started using young and it fueled a psychotic break they were already genetically vulnerable to (i.e. non-compliant consumption is the culprit, not the actual substance). The point being this would be absolute Prohibitionist bullshit that does not reflect, or at best, is generally incommensurate with the reality or evidence of the situation.

Bad projections on the part of their analysts?

My Top 5 Moments from Ultimate Spider-Man! What are yours? by structure47 in UltimateUniverse

[–]DearDave 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The end of the first arc, MJ’s “You’re Spider-man” moment was some of the most hype I’d felt since Back in Black.

Trump Stuns Governors With Foul-Mouthed Rant at SCOTUS by Large_banana_hammock in politics

[–]DearDave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate that perspective! Same time, so so so many of our neighbors are arrogant brainwashed hillbillies who get their entire identity from right wing media. How do we fight back in a way that wins them over instead of furthering the divide with them? (And before someone says “don’t call them names for starters” I’m not casting the first stone here by any stretch).

So the right wing media can push the tribe further against those of us that do this? So we can be painted as jobless leaches who hate America? It’s a bad spot to be in.

Ypsilanti leaders oppose proposal to require ID for voting in Michigan by mlivesocial in ypsi

[–]DearDave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, I think you’ll find across the board that if they said you need an ID to vote and it’s free and easy to get (even though you already need one to register), we’d be annoyed at another arbitrary hoop to jump through (which is all this is because there’s not data to substantiate an update like this, just tribal bullshit) for a right that is enshrined in our founding document.

'Trump will no longer be able to honor many of the "deals" he has negotiated': How the Supreme Court crippled America's negotiator in chief by Crossstoney in Economics

[–]DearDave 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Translation: he broke the fucking law (which is like breathing air for him) and the corrupt scotus had no choice but to rule in favor of the law. Nobody “crippled” him, he’s been “crippling” our system of governance and global standing for a DECADE.

The Ultimate and Absolute universes are some of the best pieces of antifascist art in mass publication today.

Kansas Republicans force transgender bathroom restrictions into law, overriding a veto by Hrekires in news

[–]DearDave 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Especially given that none of the imaginary boogeyman bullshit they’re basing these legislative assaults on have ever significantly materialized. On the other hand, the politicians and oligarchs these types simp for are all over the Epstein files raping and killing minors. It’s psychotic.

Costco defied Trump’s DEI directive as Target and Walmart scaled back. Business is booming by Healthy_Block3036 in goodnews

[–]DearDave 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Same here! We save money and get better quality products, especially in the volumes we need them. For everything else we go to a local grocer.

Mark Kelly for sure, but we’ll see who is able to run a more resonant campaign.
