In today's episode of Stuff Keeps Happening, we look at the Prairieland 19, eight of whom recently received sentences totaling 450 years in prison, wildly exceeding any reasonable expectations, norms, or averages for far harsher crimes. This is a part of the Trump Administration's ongoing efforts to chill dissenting speech by routinely claiming there exists an organized leftist organization called "Antifa" which is funding protests across the country. This gives them pretense to label protestors as terrorists and hit them with prison sentences so absurd that other people will be afraid to speak out.
And so, we're gonna not stop speaking out.
Also in this episode: a heist of gold bars from the government, betting market advertisement shenanigans, and an update on whatever we can call the ceasefire at this point.

In today's episode of Stuff Keeps Happening, we dive in to more artificial intelligence stories than I had honestly expected to include, but here we are. An AI running a cafe in Sweden ordered too many eggs. Anthropic would like you to believe they are stewarding a world-ending sentience. Pete Hegseth would like you to believe he, too, is sentient.

What happens when you don't treat your shareholders (or the planet) well? You have mild pushback on business operations! But hey, mild pushback is better than no pushback.
