Post also laid off Middle Eastern bureau. Nothing much happening there, right? Also laid off city desk. The desk once staffed by Woodward and Bernstein.

New Site Lets AI Rent Human Bodies​

"Robots need your body."

The pitch is simple: “robots need your body.” For humans, it’s as simple as making a profile, advertising skills and location, and setting an hourly rate. Then AI agents — autonomous taskbots ostensibly employed by humans — contract these humans out, depending on the tasks they need to get done. The humans then “do the thing,” taking instructions from the AI bot and submitting proof of completion. The humans are then paid through crypto, namely “stablecoins or other methods,” per the website.

Pardoned January 6 insurrectionist Jake Long went to Minnesota to be an asshole. A veterans group put up a display with Prosecute ICE on it. Long kicked over letters to make it Pro ICE and was stupid enough to post on Xitter. Display on private property. He was arrested for vandalism and trespassing.

Requested we keep politics out of main Olympics thread. So...
JD Vance arrived with massive entourage in fleet of huge SUVS that could barely fit Milan's narrow streets. They caused traffic jam so bad American figure skater nearly missed her event. They actually brought their own food. To Italy.
Ugly American embodied.

Senator Rick Scott, responding to criticism of ICE and anti gay policies by some Olympic athletes, said they represent a country that is a beacon of freedom and democracy. If they don't agree with that they can take off Team USA uniforms. Is he too stupid to see the blatant irony of his remarks? Senator Van Orden took it further. They should be sent home by way of Arlington National Cemetery.
We are a beacon of freedom and democracy and if you criticize you deserve to die.
