I don't know, JD, it sounds like someone suffering from that kind of trauma shouldn't be given a gun and paid to intimidate people.

There's been a lot of talk about ChatGPT-induced psychosis and yeah seems scary but I'm more freaked out how the human brain can be so easily rendered non-functional by a little positive reinforcement. Although I guess tons of kings, celebrities, other yes-men-surrounded people already proved this

Anyway, the brain is badly designed and we keep finding more ways to ruin it. Fortunately for me, being on social media all the time has no effect on me whatsoever.

Really, ChatGPT is just giving you a luxury experience that is normally only accessible to the rich and powerful -- the experience of filling your life with butt-kissing and sycophancy until you completely lose touch with reality.

I’m a night owl, and I used to call myself Duskman, influenced by the obscure Spider-Man pseudonym Dusk, the movie Darkman, and Nightman from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. I later decided I’d rather include my real first name.

So many in media are ill-equipped to interview officials about what’s happening because they begin with the presumption of legitimacy and don’t know enough about history or U.S. foreign policy to foment intelligent pushback and hold officials accountable.

Has it ever occurred to anyone to just slap the shit out of him?

I remember being a kid and thinking it was unrealistic that humans were so easily swayed. Being an adult is realizing that, no, people really are this gullible and all Megatron has to do is promise to lower the price of eggs or whatever and they'll follow him to the end of the universe.

remember, you the consumer must demand quality food if you willingly consume the slop, they will continue to feed you it

Hey I don't think you should use a website that generates CSAM on demand

I'm listening to a lot of end-of-year wrapup stuff from artists I support and it's striking how much rollback there is - the favorite/best stuff of 2025 they are talking about is like... rediscovering radio. Getting DVDs from the library to avoid bullshit streaming licensing issues. Indie games.

Get an orange cat they said it will be fun they said

Oh, and incidentally. Those other writers, they are not your competition. They are your colleagues, and the kinder, more generous you are to them the better things will go for you.

And now for some motivation from the Owensboro Burger King.

The debate about Avatar "having no cultural impact" is kind of a smokescreen for the actual argument which is that Avatar is "boring" and "bad" and "has terrible characters, worldbuilding, plotting and dialogue"

he's not sorry

I haven’t even seen avatar 2 or 3 but the man could film his own bowel movements and make an easy billion dollars at the box office

An easy way to explain this: Which is easier to do, bake a cake from scratch, or fix a cake that someone baked after they accidentally used salt instead of sugar?

(watching the movie elf with the toddlers) me: did you know that actor is andy richter and one time he liked my skeet about costco kids: oh wow, did he repost you?? me: *lowers head* no… just a like

I love superheroes. I love the idea that group of people who gained power use that power to selflessly help others as a matter of course. I love that their stories and battles are colorful outward manifestations of their inner anxieties and conflicts. I love their wild costumes and silly codenames.
