@Zevon Vancouver? I want to go sometime.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) released the following statement:
“The IC assesses that Russian influence actors manufactured a recent video that falsely depicted individuals claiming to be from Haiti and voting illegally in multiple counties in Georgia."

LMAO excruciatingly stupid premise, c'mon

@mcfate @misterfive @CinnamonGirlE @cassandra17lina IMO "vote history" is vague on the list at that link, but knowing what I have access to, it seems to mean that the person voted. Not for whom

@feloneouscat cosplay all the way down. America will only be great when everyone has a costume. I guess they really love Halloween

@mcfate what effect would that have on his corporate titles, or even the corporations🤔

@mcfate They grow up so quickly though

@VelvetDuchess do they set it on fire at some point? That would make a lot of sense.

@th3j35t3r I might have gotten it but I'm not gonna tell you

@Qbae I can't get past the title. It gets worse doesn't it

@Qbae I've faced that, it's super tough to contemplate. Fortitude.

@mcfate nice try though, budding capitalist

@sheseala CW!

@ecksmc @th3j35t3r freaking love clipboards anyway. great for writing, carrying, good edge weapon I should really stop talking

@mcfate @th3j35t3r I have a really special neon yellow jacket I picked up for 10 whole dollars at a 2nd hand store in Denmark that apparently projects extra authority. It's also super cozy and waterproof, it's like the best jacket I own.

@th3j35t3r unrelated, I have a variety of those vests and when I wear them I can do _anything_. People just assume a safety vest (and maybe khaki pants) = Authorized to Be Here.

Maybe I shouldn't say this on the internet. Wups.

@Zevon @elbutterfield just an old(er?) caucasian dude trying to expand my bubble. No tx needed.

@Zevon @elbutterfield might just be tunnel vision of computer scientists (no that doesn't explain Musk but pffft, he's a poseur) but I'm perfectly comfortable with your analysis: men being men. DAIR is mostly (all?) women saying, no, actually...

@Zevon @elbutterfield Well my premise is: forget it, stop trying. Make an intelligent machine. That will seem as foreign to us as an alien lifeform...because it will be one.
And apparently nobody wants that 😂
