Based. Those things will only get pricier.
unfortunately we live in times where saying "we're getting rid of this thing that no one ever asked for and never does anything good" is unusual.
Based. Good to see him going for common sense easy issues to keep people engaged while he works on the harder to tackle issues.
I asked why NYC had the shittiest mayor a year or so ago... Now I'm wondering why CA doesn't have one this good.

It feels ridiculous I have to say this, but it feels so good to hear about a politician just immediately saying "oh yeah, we needed to figure out where to make cuts, and these shitty AI chat bots seemed like an obvious place to start."
Adams is a dickhole collaborator. I’m surprised the contract was only around $600k. How much so you think Adams got on top?
I wish Mamdani the best. There’s so much happening to be able to ingest it all, but so far he seems genuine. My natural glare of “what SHIT are you up to!??” has so far yielded nothing; Good. More!

Wild that a politician deciding to terminate an application (and its associated contract) because the application doesn't actually work as intended seems so odd.
But I like it.
Yes! It is so sad this seems like such a bold move, but we've just become so fucking conditioned to bullshit politicians gaslighting us about why everybody else is just going to have to go without in order to keep giving handouts to the most entitled and useless pieces of crap just because they're already wealthy.
Why? Allegedly because they generate more money... But do they really? Have they ever?
