I think they actively hate trans people... they're trying to eliminate them from society. They hate liberals too, but we're just harder to target. Doesn't look that will stop them from trying though.

He means that prices are 1/6th, or that they are 6x cheaper, but yeah, he dumb and he lying. 😂

It drives me absolutely nuts that the anti-trans propaganda machine makes it sound like NFL linebackers are competing against HS girls in basketball when in reality, it's like one trans girl in the entire state that just wants to play field hockey with her friends.

LOL you guys are hilarious. The kind of AI you're thinking of only exists in the wet dreams of tech CEOs.

The "top secret full unedited" version is probably where they can be heard laughing and joking about killing people.

It seems pretty clear to me that the Republican scam is just funneling public dollars to private companies/industries that support Republicans via "political donations". Bonus: charter schools can brainwash children to believe whatever Republicans want them to believe.

Elon's whole schtick with colonizing Mars is complete science fiction and our government is participating in it. Trump doesn't care about going back to the Moon or Mars - SPD-1 was all about a giant payout to SpaceX and the military industrial complex. Same with the "Golden Dome" nonsense.

Healthcare should not be "for profit" to begin with. The system we have is obscene - insurance companies are incentivized to pay out the least amount possible and providers are incentivized to charge the highest fees for treatment. Consumers are stuck in the middle taking it from both sides.

The only way they can show the AI investment as "profitable" is by shoving into their own products. All the AI companies are doing it because almost no one would actually pay for it. They'll just jack up the prices and not give you a way to opt out.

The main reason I left Twitter when Elon bought it is because he is a massive scam artist and I don't want to do anything that will further reward him for his idiocy.

We are led to believe there are two teams: Ds and Rs, but in reality the two teams are those beholden to corporate special interests (which is like 90+% of both parties) and the ones that aren't. Following politics is like watching a Super Bowl where 90% of both teams owe a ton of money to a bookie.

And when given the choice between a competent black woman and this, they chose this... and they will choose it again if given the opportunity. It is so infuriating to me that people who voted for Biden sat out the last election or voted for Trump. We'll never be free of this stain on our country.

How do you possibly get an MRI without knowing the purpose? It's absurd. He has to know that saying he "doesn't know" is worse than just saying "my brain". If he started drooling and mumbling gibberish, Republicans would claim It's a miracle! The President is speaking in tongues! Hallelujah!

When you ask a chatbot a question, the answer is coming from the company the produced the chatbot, not from the chatbot. It's essentially like you have the most hardcore corporate goon on the other end of the line typing in answers that align with the company's mission, vision, and values.

This whole thing was like a gift to Musk... All of the Mars stuff is 100% bullshit. I don't know why we'd want a base on the moon either. It's kind of science fiction IMO. Just some scam to funnel $ out of the government to SpaceX. And Musk gets to use "Colonizing Mars" as part of his schtik.

Of all the rights not specifically mentioned in the Constitution that we routinely confer to humans, the right to be dumb as shit and act as if you are smart is perhaps the most exercised.

The lawmakers in Indiana 100% deserve credit for standing up to Trump on this... but we should talk about the places that aren't standing up to Trump like Texas. If you don't think you can win a majority with your already gerrymandered districts, maybe take the hint.

I would love to know in what context an actual human being called her a "birthing person". Oh, right, that didn't happen. She just read and believed some right-wing/Russian propaganda that said "the woke mob wants mothers to be called 'birthing persons'!!".
