Ah, yes of course Mr. Real Person

That which is against the Way, will soon cease to be.

Dean Martin, born Dino Paul Crocetti, son of Italian immigrant Gaetano Crocetti Frank Sinatra, son of Italian immigrants Antonino Sinatra and Natalina Garavanta Merry Christmas to everyone except Stephen Miller and his enablers and handlers

In holiday news, I unexpectedly healed all of my childhood trauma when I finally watched this after only seeing a preview of it on VHS growing up

If you find my below post unbelievable, forget everything you've heard about and consider this: ChatGPT just one-shotted a translation of this (bad) photo of a (messy) recipe for the Swedish dish "Janssons frestelse".

Diplomoceras (the clippy) and Pseudocenoceras

Finally, this one has a torrent!

60 minutes CECOT segment. Recorded through my browser. HD quality. Not phone. Spread it around. If you're press, it's yours. Go nuts. It's streaming on a Canadian website, but there is no telling for how long. www.filemail.com/d/wkcdttnacp...

!! Here’s a link to full video of the 60 Minutes segment that Bari Weiss killed last minute, via @jasonparis.bsky.social: is.gd/paU8Ko (It was uploaded to the Global TV app in Canada, seemingly by accident, and has now been taken down)

the reason you think American society used to be homogenous is that the version of Wokeness we did for Italians and the Irish won a victory too large for you to see from the inside

This porn bot should use an LLM to better understand whether the "sex" is that or the other kind of sex.

LA machinists -- we need 12 of these ASAP. 12x quantity to start, 7075 Pu-Ga, dimensions 8.9 *8.9* 8.9. Dm me if interested in taking this on

It is not childhood as such but rather certain ideas we have concerning it that are a recent invention.

In 2028, seeing as they're unlikely to have the two-thirds in the Senate necessary for impeachment, Democrats should pack the Supreme Court.

The Kate Wagner thing really is an inkblot for posting derangement syndrome (you've negatively polarized yourself into a state of alexia).

Well, you can't stop the king from speaking in public, and they're thinking about art before the babelfish because they're fascists.

And then there’s the story about Alex Karp’s not-at-all-weird interview (for lack of a better word) with Oswald Mosley’s grandson for a senior position at Palantir.

Speaking of which, after struggling through the parts of the Dialectic of Sex that aren't only nonsense, Firestone is at best profoundly problematic on the topic of child sexuality, at worst a would-be enabler of systemic child sexual abuse.

This is the most linear narrative that Nolan will touch at this point in his career.

Some thoughts on @reproutopia.bsky.social's Full Surrogacy Now and Abolish the Family:

In Gattaca you could beat the engineered babies by possessing True Grit™ but in reality you'll be able to do it because all of this shit is made up.

My kingdom for someone who can teach my baby how to fart.

Too Like the Lightning will be part of the upcoming Goldbox Fiction Finds collection for Kindle on Dec 11th. #torbooks

ChatGPT told me to read Lacan to understand Žižek's notion of the death drive but thankfully DuckDuckGo told me where I could find the cliffnotes

Was getting worried about this "death drive" I've been hearing about and relieved to learn that Freud just made it up. It's not real, it can't hurt you 😌

After due consideration, I have decided against abolishing my family.

Do you want MeatHab? Because this is how you get MeatHab.

used this art spree as motivation to update the steam page, which I hadn't checked in a while 15,000 wishlists...damn, thank you soon the lands will roll forth

The first person we meet on Past Lives is Nanaya'ila'i, an Elamite woman from southwestern Iran who was enslaved around 645 BC by the Assyrians in one of their last campaigns of conquest. What can we know about her life? How did she experience the sharp end of empire? www.patreon.com/posts/nanaya...

The Falklands War was a just war because the people who live there didn't (and still don't) want to be forcibly annexed into Argentina.

i think a substantial part of the problem is that i can invoke "Eduardo Valdes-Hevia" in the model and get something which you don't own but have a stake in. this is a machine which makes labor into capital and much of it is unregulated.

I dropped the price for Basic Binary Board Book to $12 for the holidays. I’ve been hearing that the kids adore it and the parents are perplexed. That’s a win-win. Tell a friend. www.amazon.com/dp/B0F9VCF3TN

They're calling it the worst trip in human history.

Ask yourself why there wasn’t this level of wall to wall coverage for this shooting wgme.com/news/local/i...

this is pretty solid spiritual advice tbh “Be prudent, be wise, be careful that your use of AI does not limit your true human growth. Use it in such a way that if it disappeared tomorrow, you would still know how to think, how to create, how to act on your own, how to form authentic friendships.”

The damned in hell are not more powerful for the fact that the fires do not consume them; it is part and parcel of their torment.

AI "has some use cases" in the same way that computers or the Internet have some use cases. Because of the scale at which it is being used and will be used, saying that AI harms the environment is tantamount to saying that human economic activity harms the environment.

@hailey.at I'm losing bfcache when I click on "Notifications" (from "Home" or a post / thread) in Brave 😔

War and Peace is an incredible novel, but it shows its age (derogatory) in Tolstoy's ugly marriage of romantic nationalism and fatalism in his theory of history.

I mean, it definitely, absolutely will not prevent the total commodification of this technology. Within 10 years everyone will be able to create photorealistic images of anyone doing anything basically for free. Audio on the same timeline, video to follow.

If you're worried that large masses of people are going to become completely detached from our rapidly contracting consensus reality due to this, I have good news: many of those people are already completely detached from said reality.

I have been fooled by far dumber things than this but it is extremely funny to imagine the depicted persons actually meeting like this.
