A pair of quick and easy AI retorts I keep at the ready: - if someone can't be bothered to write it, why should I care to read it? - if it really were so good at creating they would be hoarding it for themselves not forcing it on us.

I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort

"single-use plastic of the mind" had me GAGGED

Even my haters who don't think I'm funny and want me deported have to admit I'm talented and amusing and put a smile on their face and funny.

Things are bad when NPR is finally calling out something Trump posted point blank as racist.

launch party SUCCESS (so many people came, I'm so happy 😭❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥)

“I have seen movies, short films, completely created by artificial intelligence,” Herzog said. “Story and acting and everything, they look completely dead. There are stories, but they have no soul. They are empty and soulless.” Get their ass, Werner.

I refuse to ever know why you're all talking about mr beast.

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

When Schumer gave Trump everything he wanted back in March, the logic was that Republicans would be so unpopular by now, they'd be willing to stand up to Trump.

Discworld QOTD, from Witches Abroad “‘You’d have to go a long day’s journey to find someone basically nastier than Esme,’ said Nanny Ogg, ‘and this is me sayin’ it. She knows exactly what she is. She was born to be good and she don’t like it.’”

just guess

Downtown Manhattan at night, September 27th

Excited to report that the desert rose I've had for a year now has had its first triple bloom right at the start of Autumn

IF YOU NEED SOME JOY (i needed some joy) BUT IF YOU NEED SOME JOY READING RAINBOW IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please don’t be insensitive. Posting about what you enjoy is triggering to people who can’t enjoy anything

“Either we all go home or it’s business as usual … nobody knows what’s going to happen,” one NASA scientist, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, told @thebulletin.org.

this is what happens when the corps be listening to the loudest bros with the biggest platform and not like, normal everyday people who are like what the fuck? yall cancelling literal Free Speech now?

I just called Chuck Schumer’s office and, for the first time EVER, a person answered, who then politely entered my complaints into their call log. This tells me two things: 1) They’re not getting enough calls over there, and 2) If you want to yell at Schumer, today’s the day. (212) 486-4430

I just left VERY cathartic messages at the office of Schumer demanding that he show even the smallest backbone in representing the people he claims to defend when asking for our votes and money.

The only core American desire is to want to be a baby again

Every single pundit that played devil's advocate about the Democratic party abandoning support for trans brothers and sisters invited this by exposing it as a weakness they and mainstream Democrats are too cowardly to defend. Let them know the consequence of weakness is we primary them out of office

Look I try not to doomsay or spread panic but this shit is truly and deeply Very Bad for every single trans person in America and unless everyone makes it their mission in life over the next few days to make sure that their reps know that shutting down the government is the correct option here.

If Democrats cave on this, I will never, ever, ever, ever vote for them ever again. Ever.

I am team old person/article! No disrespect to young/video people!

time for the tweet again

pretty sly of melville slipping his own name into moby dick by making the captain “ahab” (assigned herman at birth)

Greetings, I'm Mr Beast and welcome to the Kobayashi Maru

M: Bond were sending you to Cincinnati, you have to go visit that zoo they have that is kind of a good zoo Bond, chugging a Monster energy drink: no problem beeyotch

It should still be deeply worrisome that 40% of the country is looking at all this with approval. This is going to be a problem that spans multiple generations if we don't address the fundamental educational and cultural root causes

Mr. Beast feels like the epitome of this culture of looking at everyone around you like they’re NPCs to be used as fodder in your plans instead of actual human beings

This isn't ok! Churches only do this when they're scared!!!!!!

For the life of me, I can’t figure out why the wealthiest and most powerful companies are hemorrhaging money to invest in a technology whose only logical endgame is to get us to unlearn problem solving and working together.

Waiting for that Eric Adams podcast launch date announcement next

now that eric adams has ended his campaign for mayor it’s time to stroll down memory lane

damn i gotta get to the pictures lol hell yeah

stone. cold. and we love to see it.

eric adams has dropped out of the mayoral election upon discovering that he is mayor already

insisting you are the only choice to beat the Scawy Socialist up until it's past the deadline to be removed from the ballot is the most eric adams shit ever josh

Inktober sets completely unrealistic expectations regarding output. Making a complete inked drawing in one day EVERY day for a month is insane and a recipe for burnout. Don’t tie your worth to something that even professionals believe is unrealistic.

The solution to the male loneliness epidemic is to buy a can of baked beans and enjoy it as a healthy snack while watching a Pixar movie at your local theater

The solution to the male loneliness epidemic is to sell really shitty copper then collect all the complaint tablets so you know you'll be remembered forever

I would enjoy it more whenever one of these special little boys gets unmasked as an incredibly limited thinker with absolutely no core values if it ever resulted in their audience getting smaller

gas station hot dog roller is the only medbed i’ll ever need

At this point, any Democrat who votes to keep this government open without extracting very serious concessions — RFK’s resignation, ICE rollback, Epstein Files release, etc — will absolutely face a primary challenger who will set fundraising records.
