This comic brought up a core memory of driving somewhere with my pastor as a kid, seeing Bruce Hornsby CDs in his car, and having him tell me that Bruce Hornsby was “sort of a Canadian Bruce Springsteen” which is a pretty random core memory, especially because Bruce Hornsby is from Virginia

This is your fault

He and Homer Simpson are currently crushing on Bjork but she’s dating Captain Beefheart

This is mainline evangelical belief, yes - not stopping at the founding fathers, either, but reaching all the way back to the apostles. www.crossway.org/articles/doe...

I was in Pensacola recently and walked past the Vietnam memorial there, which is now accompanied with a bunch of other memorials of different wars. The Revolutionary Mar memorial there (¯\_(ツ)_/¯) is emblazoned with this goofball-ass quote attributed to no one that feels more clarifying every day.

A good chunk of the right has absolutely not advanced past thinking it’s dumb that “sex” and “gender” are separate form fields and as such see anything like that as being ideologically threatening; it’s just easier to control kids than adults

Made my teenager pause playing Portal 2 with his friends in order to let him know that the best Portal 2 player is Plake Portles and now I’m being yelled at

[hits buzzer] is it because you keep helping build visibility and normalizing it by writing stories like this

Maybe Dante should be waiting to hear both sides before just inferring no

This is just pushing the regular rules at Christian colleges out to people who wouldn’t send their kids to Christian colleges

This tactic is really worth spending some time thinking about. It demonstrates a contempt for both the people they’re abducting and the communities they’re abducting them from which isn’t reformable or salvageable. It’s a contempt for the idea of law itself. They all have to go to jail.

Are carbon offsets for LLMs a thing yet? Certifying that a percentage of cost goes back into an art school somewhere or something

[types “make me a yoga plan” into ChatGPT] im a fucked up wire head from the future

If this doesn’t cross ones personal line of what it takes to get off Twitter I am at this point very curious what that line would be for you or if it exists at all

I would argue it takes a lot less energy to be broadly mad at any LLM usage than it does to constantly be negotiating with your own conscience about which ones are OK or not 

Shoutout to the guy near us during Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull who exclaimed LOOK AT ALL THEM CRYSTAL SKULLS

This is why conservative individual-liberty arguments tend to focus on innocuous concepts like allowing prayer in schools and removal of concepts or programs that seek to acknowledge things that cause actual harm, like the rest of the conservative individual liberty policy portfolio

Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio quality—you name it. So I quit, and put together a complete guide to getting off Spotify:
