Old Lady Pulled Over for “Helping Homeless Dogs”… But They Turned Out to Be Coyotes

Police pulled over an elderly woman after receiving several calls from concerned drivers about what appeared to be multiple dogs riding loose inside her car. When officers walked up to the vehicle, they quickly realized they weren’t dogs at all they were five wild coyotes.

Neighbors later told officers they had watched the woman feed the same animals nearly every evening for the past two weeks. Eventually, the coyotes reportedly became so comfortable around her that they simply climbed into her car one by one as if they belonged there.

Officers explained that the animals were actually coyotes, not stray dogs. The confused look on the woman’s face reportedly had everyone trying not to laugh. Wildlife officials safely removed the animals without injury, while the woman insisted she was “just trying to help some hungry puppies.”

@Bernard Okay, but what is the crime? You have to have a reason to pull someone over and doggos riding in a car is not a sufficient reason.

Trump Killed Those US Troops In Jordan

More US troops have died in Trump’s insane war of aggression against Iran, so of course we’re seeing a bunch of phony bullshit from American warmongers about what a heroic sacrifice these soldiers made in order to justify further escalations.

“Godspeed, heroes. Their sacrifice only stiffens our resolve,” tweeted Secretary of War Pete Hegseth in response to the news that two US troops were killed with one soldier missing after Iranian retaliatory strikes on a US base in Jordan.

But they weren’t “heroes”, and they did not make any “sacrifice”.

Something that I didn't realize wasn't universally known, but it apparently isn't.

That idea that you're being "left behind" or "staying in the stone age" if you don't start using AI? It's not real. I know that it feels real, and like it's everywhere around you, but it's not. You are intentionally being made to feel this way.

This is a propaganda technique that was perfected in the cryptocurrency/NFT industry, using FOMO and peer pressure to draw you into investment scams because it seemed like everything around you was starting to adopt it. But that was still a pretty limited scale.

AI companies do the same thing, except at a global scale. That's why there's the constant claims about what AI models can supposedly do, that are debunked two days later. And why everybody talks about how much money they're putting into it. And the constant doom trolling about how AI will 'take over the world'.

The whole point of all of this is to make it *feel* inevitable, to make it feel bigger than it really is in everyone's lives, to make you feel like everyone *else* is accepting it and you're the only weird old fossil who doesn't like it. None of it is real, even if it feels that way.
