If I’m still alive by that time I will volunteer as tribute to destroy it

Adding this into the already wildly unstable market is gonna be the death blow

It’s been my worry for the past few weeks, tensions are so high and the administration is itching for the excuse to become even more heavy handed and draconian. I’m of the opinion this(not this moment but the full situation we find ourselves in) is all gonna end in massive violence one way or the other but I worry about this protest specifically because of how it’s been organized.

Requiring full and and email to RSVP to it? And how they’ve been working alongside the cops to make sure it’s just a demonstration and not a proper disruption. To me that screams bad opsec at minimum and if just one of the protests gets violent the fascists will get that list and use it as an excuse to round folks up and scare the shit out of others who want to stand against them.

I don’t want to tell people not to go, I went to pretty much every associated protest all summer in my area. But everyone should be extremely careful, don’t RSVP just show up, be wary of any bridges, and most importantly DONT BRING YOUR FUCKING PHONE

Probably not, they seem to be a fool like so many others in this country.

I’ve said this a few time on here, but I’m originally from spitting distance from her district, and based on my experience with so many other folks just like her; protecting children, specifically from conspiratorial trafficking and SA, is her number 1 priority, she’s usually really fucking bad at identifying ways to productively do so because she’s very poorly educated and indoctrinated, but if she has 100% confirmation Trump raped a child, which isn’t unlikely, she would almost certainly turn on him like it seems she has.

It’s very telling that the account you and I were arguing with hasn’t said shit in 5 days ain’t it.

Luckily it won’t just be China! WW3 on deck!

Best use of AI so far

I get emails and scam phone calls asking me to sell the last house my parents owned when I lived there, they sold that property 4 years ago

Why has this fact been trending lately, seen it in several other places this week

It’s definitely a major component of it

Elon needing to use an AI to engage in a creative activity is the perfect microcosm for the actual problem with how what they are calling “AI” is implemented. I don’t want to see a game made by AI, maybe using it for coding some of the underlying mechanisms but even those I think are made more interesting by a human solving a problem in an innovative way. Not only that I don’t want to see a movie, watch a tv show, read a book, or contemplate a piece of art created by AI in part or whole.

Those are all things I engage with because another human being with a different human experience created it themselves and in the process of creating they’ve actively engaged with their own perspective. The business goblins that are shoehorning it into everything seem to think that humans just want the end product of a work of art because that’s all dumb business goblins want and can conceive of. But if I wrote a book by giving an AI a prompt, I didn’t write that book at all, it barely even qualifies as a book

I want AI to do spreadsheets, automate scheduling coordination, cleaning, laundry, bills, taxes and all the other mind numbing tasks that come with our modern lives. They are doing it backwards

Sounds more like performance art/prank in the form of a video game, like something Andy Kauffman and Banksy would create together, but I’m still here for it

Serious question, best way to stop paying income taxes?

I think that if there are historians left to analyze this in 30 years they’ll probably drop the start line around the assassination of Charlie Kirk. There definitely are multiple different factions even within the conservative movement they haven’t completely turned on one another, the left is similarly at odds with itself.

When we see the White House calling on generals to be prepared to invade American cities with the military, judge’s houses are being burned down after giving verdicts disliked for political inconvenience, Chicago, Portland, LA, DC are all seeing extreme escalations in state sanctioned violence, states sending their national guard to other states to quell chaos that isn’t there, and mass shootings nearly everyday, sometimes several. To me that’s civil war that’s started heating up.

But if you’d rather call what were currently seeing and experiencing something like The Troubles in Ireland and wait until the conflict is even more overt feel free.

I’m not letting my guard down until it’s over, he could just be worried the Christian nationalist take control instead of his butterfly revolution tech bros

Add it to the list of shit we desperately need yesterday

This is out of line, Carl is an awful and gross person but he’s not evil

Which is why all the factions are trying to get their agenda advanced as quickly as possible before he croaks. The techno-feudalist side had the advantage with their boy JD poised to take over but removing him is much more politcally viable for the Christian nationalists in congress

Thank you
