He has a democratic opponent who doesn't have a Nazi tattoo. Vote for that person in the primaries so no one has to choose between a Nazi and a dude with a Nazi tattoo.

anyway the main reason I'd want to do this is in the hopes that there'd have to be a company-wide email sent out declaring a new rule that no one is allowed to use the slopchute to generate omegaverse clown erotica.

I started to wonder if clowns are mammals, since, you know, eggs. Maybe they're monotremes?
They have hair, which is a point towards mammal, but I really don't want to have to consider the implications of "clown milk" this early in the morning

oh god do omegas in the A/B/O/ clowniverse lay the clown eggs?

my first idea is of course to have it write omegaverse clown erotica

Tweet screenshot showing a Fox News post about Senator John Fetterman telling Bill Maher that a near-death experience β€œfreed” him to speak out and that progressivism β€œleft him.” Below it, another tweet sarcastically comments, β€œBrain damage made me conservative.”

Perhaps his fear center in the amygdala was activated while his reasoning center in the prefrontal cortex was impaired? Or maybe he just became mean and weird.

Oh, and look, here's that class action suit! That anyone with half a brain would have seen coming! From, like, a million miles away!

Just because you work in tech doesn't mean you're smart.

Hey good news, I created an agent based on a specific german computer technician (based on his public forum posts) to review all your pull requests for you!

ArminMeiwesBot will check that your python code meets the standards of this organization and suggest pork recipes!

A person at level 1 or below proficiency, is unable to do this. They cannot parse out extraneous, distracting, irrelevant information.

They cannot look at a website and identify which parts of the page they are looking at, are advertisements.

Level 2 proficiency is such as being able to look at a website and identify which parts are advertisements, if you want a concrete idea of what it means.

Again: this is functional illiteracy. A fluent English speaker is expected to be able to figure out, on their own, that they are being told a joke.

That this joke contains subtext, requires context, and expresses a point of view which may not be the same point of view as the person saying the joke.

"Quote accurately from a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text."

Pancakes, waffles. "Are you saying ___?"

54% of US adults cannot accurately explain what a given text is saying and draw inferences from it.

This isn't "Bob takes a long time to read something"

This is "Bob literally cannot understand that the villain of a story is doing bad things unless the villain stops and says 'I am doing bad things right now btw'"

Like: part of being functionally illiterate is *not being able to perceive that things may be biased*. Not understanding that someone might be lying, or wrong.

Half the US stock market is now tied to LLM's, which only appear impressive if you are functionally illiterate.

People tend to think of functional illiteracy as just being unable to read words aloud or such.

What it *really* means is such as not being able to perceive subtext, context, understand who the audience of something may be, etc.

Media illiteracy is fundamentally part of functional illiteracy.

Think about all the libertarians you've encountered who will read a book and *entirely* miss the point of the book. Literally not perceiving that the book is describing a dystopia, or identify satire of real world events, or identify who is the villain.

54% of US adults read below 6th grade level.

Think about chuds constantly going "man I used to love this band but they turned woke by putting politics in their songs" and the band is literally Rage Against the Machine or Bruce Springsteen.

54% of US adults read below 6th grade level. 20%, below 5th grade level.

Think about authors having to explain that they should not *have* to have the villain stop periodically and go "what I am doing is wrong, I am doing a bad thing. I am the bad guy, here" because being able to figure that out is part of what it means to be functionally literate.

Fun fact: 54% of US adults read below a 6th grade level.

You have to actively remember literally over half the US adult population is *unable to perceive subtext*

If any white house journalists existed who didn't desperately long to join Jean Luchaire, they would report on who was in the room with him right before one of these toddler tantrums on his blog.

In the span of a day he'll go from "it's over, it's done, why are you still talking about this stuff" and "well people die, that happens, whether it's good or not who can say, but they die in a very big beautiful way"

To "and we will RAIN HELL upon them like the world has only ever seen in 1945"

Like his baseline is very clearly "why are you still talking about this, it's over, it's done, look at these drapes"

And then someone wheels in the perfectly preserved corpse of John McCain and an hour later he's raving weird apocalyptic shit on his pedophile blog for pedophiles

It's interesting how you can see how trump simply stopped giving a single fuck about the war once his attention got distracted, and then exactly when the last person in the room with him was a extremely aroused Holden Bloodfeast.

people act like AI has added mysticism to technologists but if you lot haven’t been ensuring you have at least one furry on your devops teams you have been committing malpractice anyway, they ward off outages like figureheads dispel storms

If any news outlets are covering this and want to talk to a trans Genomics PhD who specialized in human genetics and the evolution of sex, please reach out to me

This is complete nonsense scientifically. It's fascist eugenics, not biology

Setting a horrifying precedent for genocide

This is false.

Jamal Harrison Bryant, a Megachurch pastor, has said the boycott is over. He is not leaders, plural. He and his church were not the ones to start the calls for boycott.

Nekima Levy Armstrong, who founded the Racial Justice Network, and other Minnesota civil rights activists were.

An effective ban before the end of the year is highly likely. They won't call it a ban. They'll limit private prescribing by citing safety concerns and then rely on the 25 year waitlists for adult care to effectively make formal access impossible. It'll make legal challenges harder.

btw about that pixar thing, the reason why these people think having a conversation about gay people with kids is difficult is because they don't know a way to say to their kid "gay people are normal but you are not allowed to be one" without sounding like a bigot (there is a reason for that)
