I need to be absolutely serious for once.
Never, EVER reply 'yes' or similar to tweets like this. In the UK you'll do 14 years in jail (not a joke). If you're abroad and visit, you'll be arrested at the airport.
Crazy that this tweet was made by a UK politician to trap people.
If you have a Gmail account, you need to read this.
Google's AI now scans your emails and attachments, bank statements, tax files, medical letters, all of it. It turned on by default, and there's a class-action lawsuit over how.
Here are 5 moves to shut it off, the switch is hidden in two places:
It’s not about arguments. It’s about facts.
I know one great fact about American elections, and I know it because the Republican Party has proved it to me:
There is no election fraud of any consequence anywhere in the United States.
The Republican Party and its allies, FOR DECADES, have been searching high and low, in every corner of our country, for evidence of election fraud.
This effort has been made with vast sums of money and other resources, and with some of the greatest powers in our nation at the party’s disposal:
A presidential commission under President Donald Trump.
The Department of Justice under President Donald Trump, armed with the resources of the FBI, and the powers of subpoena.
Committees of Congress under Republican control, also armed with the powers of subpoena and the investigative resources of the first branch of government.
State legislatures under Republican control, also with subpoena powers, have launched similar efforts to find evidence of election fraud.
Republican-controlled states have set up special commissions and task forces, some with subpoena powers, all well-funded and with access to the state’s electoral systems.
Conservative academics and think tanks have launched projects seeking out evidence of election fraud.
Fox News and the rest of MAGA media have dedicated significant resources to finding evidence of election fraud.
What is the result of this enormous Republican effort to find election fraud?
Ask The Heritage Foundation.
For nearly a decade, Heritage has maintained an “Election Fraud Database.”
The database contains “proven instances of election fraud.”
It covers elections going back nearly fifty years.
That’s billions and billions of American votes.
Right now, the total number of proven instances of election fraud that Heritage can document is:
1620.
That’s an infinitesimal number, vanishingly small, and it is solid proof of two things:
1. Some individuals commit election fraud.
2. There is no evidence at all of systemic or even widespread election fraud anywhere in the USA.
The election-fraud panic is the Big Lie of our time.
It is peddled by people who know better. Their own investigations over decades demonstrate that.
Stop trying to subvert our democracy.

Good god this is a crazy interview. Listen as Scott Pelley describes how Bari Weiss wanted journalists at CBS to cover the killing of Renee Good in Minnesota. This is why we can’t have oligarchs running our news outlets, this is absolutely devastating.
Things most Americans agree on:
Groceries cost too much.
Tariffs suck and make no sense.
Congress and Presidents shouldn’t trade stocks.
The debt is a mess.
The border should be secure, but legal immigration is good.
Endless wars are stupid, especially ones that nobody wants and have never been explained.
Americans are exhausted.
AI is like my new best friend that also might be trying to take my job, my ability to think for myself, and my humanity in the process. Yo like I love you, but WTF, but I still love you.
Diversity is actually awesome! The opposite is boring AF.
Canadians are super fucking cool.
Mexicans are chill.
Putin isn’t a good guy looking out for America’s best interest. Rocky IV and Miracle are great movies.
Good neighbors are a blessing.
Freedom of religion and coexistence without having to blow each other up is probably a good idea.
We all question, are we alone in the universe?
We all fuck up along the way.
Epstein didn’t hang himself.
The Trumps and Epstein were best friends for decades. It’s like Bert trying to tell us Ernie was just an acquaintance in the same social scene on Sesame Street back in the day.
The Cowboys suck. Go Birds!
Things we’re told to fight about:
Me.
Laptop.
Vaccines.
Transgenders in sports.
Pronouns.
That’s the joke.
My "Roman Empire is the realization that my life is a lottery win. Somewhere in Sudan, Pålestine, iran, Afghanistan, Iraq or Congo, there is a boy smarter than me. He is more disciplined, more resilient, and holds more potential in his single finger than I do in my entire career.
The only difference? I am siting in a train and he is sting in the rubble of his dreams.
My "bad days" are his wildest dreams.
My "burnout" is a luxury he can't afford because his only job is staying alive.
It's geographical luck and it's a haunting injustice that we all refuse to acknowledge and look away
Three months ago today, a war began that no one voted for — and the cost has been paid by people who had no say in it.
Thousands of civilians have lost their lives. Thirteen U.S. servicemembers will never come home to their families.
Americans across this country and our city have watched prices rise at the pump and the grocery store, their budgets strained by a conflict launched without a single vote of Congress.
Every life lost abroad and every dollar squeezed from a working family here is part of the same reckless bill, handed to the people who could least afford it by those who will never pay it themselves.
I opposed this war from the first day. I oppose it still. It must end.
Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas
The funniest possible outcome of the AI mandate era is about to be HR departments discovering that "sincerely held religious belief" under Title VII has a much lower bar than they assumed, and Pope Leo handed every Catholic employee a written excuse.
