To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

Los Angeles County declares state of emergency over immigration raids

Los Angeles County officials voted on Tuesday to declare a state of emergency over ongoing federal immigration raids.

Eventually I’ll change her legs to wear black thigh highs but I don’t have access to those parts yet so I went with what I have!

I used #30MinutesSisters parts to realize an OC! This is Sophie in her Philoxenia Wear! She the head tour guide (or ‘Director of Guest Onboarding’) at an inter dimensional resort. Her outfit comes with an optional flight pack. The red band is like a smart watch that projects holograms as interface!

Streaming might not be TV but the day is STILL only 24 hours! People have even less time bow with how many must take two jobs to make ends meet. Meanwhile it takes 3 years for a show to produce 4 movies instead of times where they could knock out 13-26 episodes a year and keep us entertained.

everyone needs to internalize that this is just how all republicans are and when nancy pelosi said "the country needs a strong republican party" she meant that more people like this should be powerful. they are all like this! they all think just like this and like trump and they love it and it's fun

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

I’m sure giving your ID to ChatGPT will go WONDERFULLY for everyone involved.

Pathetic that it doesn’t pay well.

They should start shuffling back and forth in the background like foot soldiers in Power Rangers to make it look like there’s more of them

This is cool after the war on everything called “porn” by platforms and payment processors. A machine that stole all your words can generate and sell “erotica” but you can’t haaa

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.
