Critics of the Meta glasses have been too focused on the privacy issues, and missed out on the real scourge that they’ve unleashed on society: a flood of really crummy content about pranking big box store employees. This is all over Reels and TikTok

Attacking a person's spouse is not the best look. I don't trade stocks and never will. My immigrant father in law started a successful auto transmission business. My wife a trust which neither of us has any input in. I have led the call for a stock ban and having members in a trust!

ALERT: 73-year-old British rapper passes out mid-performance while suspended in midair.
Pete Bowditch, from the rap group Pete & Bas, was performing in Chicago, Illinois, when he lost consciousness in the middle of a concert.
It is suspected that the harness cut off circulation, which caused him to pass out.
The group's management company stated, “We would like to apologize for last night’s show; the good news is Pete is now in a stable condition.”
They refunded everyone at the show and plan to continue their European tour as scheduled.

I’m the candidate challenging Diana DeGette. I’ll say it plain and clear: Free Palestine and we need an arms embargo on ALL weapons now. I’m not afraid to talk to voters about these issues directly and respectfully. If you want to connect, find me at kirosforco.com

Miles Kampf-Lassin@MilesKLassin
Some takeaways now that the dust has settled in Illinois' Democratic primaries: 1/ AIPAC, AI, Big Tech, crypto & the sports gambling industry spent millions to defeat progressives and install corporate-friendly, anti-regulation candidates and mostly set their money on fire... 🧵

I spoke to Anthropic’s AI agent Claude about AI collecting massive amounts of personal data and how that information is being used to violate our privacy rights.
What an AI agent says about the dangers of AI is shocking and should wake us up.
