Just so we’re all clear, AI is part of this fascist ecosystem. The more you use it, the richer they get, the more impoverished we become. Not just monetarily, but culturally, ethically, morally, critically. It is morally bankrupt to comment on fascism with fascist technology.

I want to give credit to my editors, who asked me to write 2,000 words on why Andrew Tate wears such tight pants. I submitted 3,700. They asked if I really needed to start with a story about the industrial revolution and I said "yes, absolutely don't cut" bloomberg.com/features/2025-…

Afraid of ICE raids, 100% of all workers are totally gone on this farm in the Rio Grande Valley — even those working legally. Working on a similar story now and what we're seeing out in the community is devastating. Full story from Border Report for KVEO: borderreport.com/news/100-perce…

Of all the things AI has done for us so far, recreating moments in pop culture history with babies replacing grown folk has clearly been the most beneficial.
