I don’t know how these things get traction, but I would love it if my friends and their kitty could get some help gofund.me/95c4a33c1

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

Is Amontillado and bourbon an acceptable brunch drink?

Samuel Johnson in Blackadder realizing he forgot to put “sausage” in the dictionary. I do it every single time I encounter or think of sausages and no one has ever gotten the reference

APRIL - 1805 NAPOLEON IS MASTER OF EUROPE ONLY THE BRITISH FLEET STANDS BEFORE HIM THERE IS NOTHING IN NAVAL LAW STATING THAT A GOLDEN RETRIEVER CANNOT SERVE HIS MAJESTY AS CAPTAIN OCEANS ARE NOW BATTLEFIELDS

an article asking whether it's feminist to use AI? i will get right around to reading that, but first, would you join me in the cellar for a moment? i have a lovely new cask of sherry of dubious origin i'd like your opinion on

God I missed football

I swallowed my feelings and voted for the last two Dem candidates. I will not do it a third time if they nominate this fucker

watching you dildo brain cock suckers play w/ AI shit is like watching a dog paw at one of those puzzle boxes that you put treats inside of

At my gym I often see an older gentleman who spends an hour walking on the treadmill in khakis. On the tray of the treadmill he lays out 12 cigars. As he walks, he has a cigar champed in his mouth that he periodically switches with one on the tray.

People love to say "A.I." is here to stay so we might as well contend with it. No it isn't. No thank you. It's bullshit snake oil being sold by the very people destroying the country as we once knew it.

Daaaaaaa pope

This is for me. If it helps you I’m glad but I gotta have a shortcut to getting a pat from the boy.

the thing I hate most about that rfk quote is that autistic lives have value and worth and beauty and dignity whether they are able to do the things other people do or not. no one is defined by ability or lack thereof and to frame divergence as lack is monster stuff, utterly godless

Every person with a spectrum disorder has a more valuable life than RFK Jr, and every trans/nb person has a more valuable life than JK Rowling. You are a human with dignity and they are sunken demons

Being a true Alan Parsons Project fan is a thankless existence because you hear a needle drop of Sirius in a TV show or a basketball game and subconsciously you're like "All right here we go, time to follow it up with Eye In The Sky, let's do it!" and it just never happens.

Every time I read The Great Gatsby, the final paragraph brings me to tears. Breathtakingly powerful writing:

There’s not any social media site left to link a video of “karma police” and say you’re feeling like that. A loss to humanity I think and the weirdos on here are groping blindly towards a past where that was posting. Heartbreaking

its amazing how chatgpt knows everything about subjects I know nothing about, but is wrong like 40% of the time in things im an expert on. not going to think about this any further

I pretty much follow the same people here that I did on the other site but I see about 200% more Star Trek content

I am all about peppery flavored things that aren’t peppers now. Give me all that arugula. I want to get fucked up on some radishes.

"It was a great honor to lose historically in front of President Trump before he got up and left during the 2nd quarter due to how bad we sucked."

RIP to the movable objects and public lighting of Philadelphia

Sorry if it's cringe or virtue signaling or whatever but unqualified and unconditional love and support to every trans person on earth. You will win and I will help you.

If you are trans and putting on a cute outfit or doing your makeup or looking fucking hot you are doing praxis.

Yesterday I sat for almost three hours stopped on the interstate because someone was having a crisis and intended to jump off on overpass, which feels like the sort of thing which is going to start being common pretty soon here

Feels real bad to put away a part of a lecture that you’ve gone back to for years that used to work because it’s too old. I can see why some professors will still keep that kinda thing but I know when the writing’s on the wall. it just hurts that deadmau5 is now far too old an artist to bring up

But the stars burn on overhead, Unconscious of final ends, As I walk home to bed, Asking what judgment waits My person, all my friends, And these United States. (Auden, "A Walk After Dark")

Mister Rogers never misses

I FINALLY HAVE A LEMON ON HAND TO DO THIS!

I got a lot of grief in a fantasy football money league earlier this season about a trade they didn’t like. They figured out I was a woman and so much was said about how I didn’t know anything about football because of my gender. Anyway, how should I spend my $500 champion prize?

phew here he comes, big brian t. the top dawg. thought he was going to be late to the presentation but hes right on time. oh sweet, he brought along a mysterious companion that is approaching swiftly from the darkness

I was watching candy making videos and they flavored one with anise. Had to turn it off, can’t be causing myself more psychic damage thinking about nasty flavors

A poem for my last day working at the writing center for the semester (by Joseph Fasano)

RIP to the couple that made scenes on the side of the road with naked Barbies. Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.

I have been here for awhile too, I just do not have anything funny or interesting to say

If I could be anybody it would be a 26 year old English guy stomping around in a suit in a New Wave music video

I think I encountered the Divine Feminine at this concert - she gave me glasses that turned the light show into hearts because she said she saw how hard I was vibing

The 15 year old who worked on the Obama campaign with me in small town Georgia (the only two volunteers in our county) in 2008 is now making 150k selling his soul to work for that giant genocide supporting hoodie wearing asshole
