builds castles in the cloud, occasionally lives in them. autodidact, neurodivergent weirdo, pretty decent cook.
At this point, MAGA is just the party of nazi pedophiles. There’s no getting around it, no reforming it, no pretending it’s about anything else. This is who they are, and always will be.

We built Jikipedia, a new wiki that compiles Jmail data into exhaustive reports on key figures in the Epstein scandal.

It lists all recorded visits to Epstein's estates, each person's possible knowledge of Epstein's crimes and laws that they may have violated.

Thinking about the time Leonid Brezhnev had a stroke, and then continued to rule the USSR for 6 more years, in which time he barely knew where he was or what was happening.

Huge scandal that Minneapolis has been crawling with terrorists this whole time. They've been living among us undercover as poets and nurses. And would've continued to, had it not been for the work of our bravest child kidnappers

Speaking as someone who tames hungry ghosts for a living, this is highly accurate.
If you can substitute "hungry ghost trapped in a jar" for "AI" in a sentence it's probably a valid use case for LLMs. Take "I have a bunch of hungry ghosts in jars, they mainly write SQL queries for me". Sure. Reasonable use case.

"My girlfriend is a hungry ghost I trapped in a jar"? No. Deranged.

"It’s disgusting and, frankly, counterproductive to point out that I voted for this. To imply that I had personal free will and agency when I walked into a voting booth and picked Mayor Bomberman is insulting."

Nobody ever lost any money by underestimating the intelligence of the American public.
Someone in a thread somewhere on this platform told me that 75% of Americans hold creationist or god-guided evolution views, and I didn’t believe it and it’s totally true. About 35-40% of Americans believe God created humans in their present form in the last 10,000 years.

it's crazy that 500 years ago, you would see the ruler of your country maybe once in your life and hear whispers that they're the Sun God, but now with social media, you get to see on a daily basis that they're the most unhinged, idiotic, and unhappy person you know

There needs to be a word for "the least surprising face." This is like nominative determinism for faces. The face that launched a thousand restraining orders.

Accusations of hypocrisy have never once been successful against right wingers in any context but especially in this particular context of child abuse. This is a very cogent explanation as to why and I wish everyone understood it.
when you understand that patriarchy views children as sexual property it all makes sense. there's no hypocrisy. exposure to queerness & transness threatens to "corrupt" the father's property, to "lead them astray" into self-determination, to taint their future sexual value. CSA is permissible as >
Thatcher's government did this with Section 28, banned the "promotion of homosexuality" as a danger to children, while actively protecting Jimmy Savile and who knows how many other pedophiles. It's the same damn playbook.

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.
