every ruling out of chicago is like, "federal judge rules ICE agents cannot desecrate graves; must not deploy nuclear weapons against journalists and faith leaders."

A concise statement of the problem.

And just in time, the administration pulled the vaccine.

What the fuck do you mean I got a longer prison sentence than Diddy

If I genuinely believed I was 18 months away from superintelligence that could solve cancer, I would probably not be pivoting to horny chatbots, but that's just me (a person with priorities)
