we’ve gone so far past “sex workers are the canaries in the coal mine” re: internet freedom, to an internet that’s run off and robbed from all the sex workers in order to replace them with planet-destroying simulations of sex workers

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

Started episode two of CR season 4, and...

A picture of the Youtuber Scott the Woz, a young man with black rimmed glasses, pale skin and dark brown hair, wearing a black hoodie. He looks down down at a simple, folded paper with hand writing on it simply saying 'Sex Manual' as he looks confused down at it. He utters the words 'Did I miss a page?' with matching yellow text right under him.

This Nazi had to go into hiding because his comment “your body my choice” led to such harsh and IMMEDIATE pushback from left women that he got doxxed

"The executive has usurped the power of the purse to pay for a standing army" is something that the Founders very explicitly wanted to prevent from ever happening but, ah, well, nevertheless

CBS aired a segment by Olivia Reingold—a reporter for the Weiss-founded Free Press—in which NYPD officers are worried about Mamdani, with some “considering retiring.” The evidence? Four unnamed officers quoted out of ~33,000.

The story is thinly sourced, fearmongering, tabloid drek. trib.al/hfqsrL0

Attacks on how people look are entirely uncalled for. Just shows you have nothing of actual substance to say and are just angry
