Tulip mania.

I wrote a thread about LLMs (but pretended it was about something else).

Any headline that ends in a question mark used to be answerable with "No." Any question headline that starts with "Why?" can these days be answered with "NOBODY'S GOT ANY FUCKING MONEY!!" ("Why aren't millennials buying houses? Why are pubs closing? Why aren't people having kids?" etc)

🤣🤣🤣 I'm laughing at the utter incompetence and the irony thereof but I'm also conscious that 100s of thousands, probably millions, of people's lives, both in the US and across the world, have been lost, ruined or severely damaged. What a shitshow!

In 1988 Frank Zappa speaking with Charlie Rose Said " I have this horrible fear that the U.S. could wind it's way towards being a FASCIST Theocracy, The Cross converted into a symbol of FASCISM in the service of Politics." When Dogma becomes Legislation

I think we all need put aside our provincial bias, for one day at least, and get behind Sam Prendergast. The best way to do that is to run directly at him while carrying a rugby ball.

France invades the UK and occupies Kent and Sussex. France and the US come up with a plan, excluding the UK, that enables France to keep Kent and Sussex. F*ck off.

You can recreate Trump’s meeting schedules with the competing parts of his regime by tracking the swings in our Ukraine policy.

everyone correctly noting that any time you put Trump in a room with someone charismatic he becomes extremely complimentary until someone reminds him he hates that person, take a bow he’ll be posting unhinged shit about Zohran again by tomorrow

i know we've all laughed about the worm and the affair but this is a profoundly dangerous person who should be expelled from the government.

Elon Musk’s online encyclopedia, Grokipedia, cites the neo-Nazi website Stormfront as a source 42 times, according to an analysis by two researchers at Cornell University. (NBC)

There are theses to be written. Not comprehensive, but here are some thoughts on Ireland and Brexit. It pays to take a wide-angle lens for this type of thing. The story is nevertheless informative A 🧵

Episode 46: Sapiens It's an ambitious goal to write the entire history of humanity in just 400 pages. It's even more ambitious to do it without reading any research.

Will someone who loves and cares about Jerry Smith take away his Fox News machine

Grok has been reprogrammed to say Musk is better than everyone at everything, including blowjobs, piss drinking, playing quarterback, conquering Europe, etc.

This is the kind of bar fight I can get behind.

He would sayy that, wouldn't he

Petty fun: I fed gpt the Elon v Lebron hypo, and when it said Lebron, I told it I didn’t believe it because of Grok, and got this.

If there are an infinite number of universes, it is therefore inescapable that every possible outcome exists somewhere in the multiverse. We could be living in the universe where Burke – in the finest Irish tradition – has gone on the run dressed as a woman.

I guess one difference between me and Elon Musk is that, if I was gaming an AI to say these things about me, and everyone could see that I had done this, I'd have simply no choice but to set myself on fire.

You know things are bad when you can't tell if this is real or not. Dear god! It's real, isn't it?

in one of the biggest hospitals in Budapest the doctors had to postpone at least 3 scheduled operations today because there's no heating in the hospital :) :) but hey at least we have new soccer stadiums so our soccer team can lose all their games in nice places

It’s a good for the world to see that Zionism’s most USisn faces right now are: — Larry Summers, disgraced Epstein confidant —Andrew Cuomo, disgraced sex pest former NY gov & wanna mayor —Eric Adams, disgraced Trump confidant & booted NYC mayor —Donald Trump himself —Jeffrey Epstein himself

Wow! This will do untold damage for years to come and it won't matter if they delete it. It's out there now.

the gulf between the swift brutality with which places like harvard treated students protesting genocide and the endless, endless latitude those same institutions have given people like larry summers tells you everything you need to know

The ink on the ICJ advisory opinion emphasizing the essential role of UNRWA is barely dry, and here is Germany abstaining in a preliminary vote on the extension of the mandate for UNRWA for the first time. Germany is, again, turning its back on international law www.spiegel.de/politik/gaza...

If you took every billionaire on earth and stacked them on top of each other starting at the bottom of the Mariana Trench, that would be great.

So the evil orange demented sociopathic jagoff snaps on another female reporter and defends his Saudi puppet master and benefactor who had Khashoggi murdered and hacked to pieces. Yeah... You really know how to pick em' MAGA.

Crown Prince Bonesaw is FANTASTIC. - The president of the USA

Q: Is it appropriate for your family to be doing business in Saudi Arabia while you're president. Is that a conflict of interest? And your royal highness, the US intel community concluded you orchestrated the brutal murder of a journali--- TRUMP: Who are you with? Q: ABC News TRUMP: Fake news

“You’re the new Finance Minister - really?”

Jaysus wept. The dearth of talent is frightening

This is Paschal's last appointment before he ascends into his final form: that of a giant sentient spreadsheet that floats in the sky overseeing all budgetary issues of the new world

Seems like they're doing it again. There's plans to ban single use vapes but the industry is way ahead of them. Afaics most disposables now are rechargeable and you can replace the liquid via a pod but the coils cannot be replaced the rendering them useless after www.thejournal.ie/vapes-to-be-...

👀 Irish data centres are now using 22% of all electricity generated in Ireland, more than all urban homes combined & drawing an unquantified amount (lots) of Ireland’s water capacity Could AI demands be related to recent push to fast-track infrastructure, side-step safeguards & reduce court access?

DHS and ICE is now just comprised of Proud Boys and other assorted knuckle dragging treasonists.

The cool thing about having a political world view that's not a weird personality cult tied to one old man is that there's no one so integral to your policy preferences that whether or not to overlook and conceal their complicity in mass paedophilia is a hard choice. I really recommend it.
