Despite a lawsuit from xAI, a Minnesota ban on apps that allow users to “nudify” images can move forward, according to NBC News. U.S. District Judge Donovan Frank’s ruling focused as much on the timing of xAI’s lawsuit as on the substance of the law itself. Frank wrote that xAI filed its request for a temporary restraining order “on July 29, 2026, nearly three months after the law was signed, and only three days before the law is set to take effect” on August 1.

Hey, there is at least ONE racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, libertarian representative from Kentucky that ALSO happens to not be ok with child porn and pedophiles.

Like, the bar is so fucking low that Thomas fucking Massie is at the top of it in that party.

Like, I think we might need some reeducation camps at some point guys. We can make them more comfortable and humane than "gulags" or whatever. But, what the fuck do we do with these people otherwise? Seriously, I want to know. What else can undo this level of rot in our society?

You'll never completely be rid of it because humans are wired to be tribal and we find tribes based on what sports team we root for or what college we went to or what clothes we wear... or the color of our skin or the kinds of foods we like or who we are attracted to.

I have an intense dislike of anyone who voted for this mess, and I don't really have the energy to invest to hate anyone, but the closest I come is every last member of the Trump clan (not the niece or whatever, just the people in his inner circle).

Hate and fear and ignorance are always going to be part of humanity.

Musk after not getting a response to his wildest party request to Epstein:

Do you suppose they brought this lawsuit because ultimately the regime wants the federal moritorium on AI lawsuits to go before the corrupt Supreme Court?
