Even if AI could write a novel what problem has been solved? The problem of knowing what you’re reading was written by another person? Who loves reading novels but hates the part where your mind briefly and mysteriously touched another?

Both of the options here are human writers. The first option is unprocessed human writing and the second option is human writing run through a language model to reproduce the same outputs with different words

If it couldn't have existed without training data, it isn't creating anything at all.

Brace yourself, it is not a fun read

At least two Republican congressmen have said that Muslims don’t belong in America but of course the NYT chooses to criticize Mamdani.

Never thought I would be an old man yelling at cloud simply because the next generation is so fucking lame.

Magic City strippers are homeowners, so what fucking disrespect are we actually talking about, here

The NBA: We cannot allow our teams to celebrate vices, like our cities' premier strip clubs.

Also, the NBA: Brought to you by gambling companies DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, and Fanatics Sportsbooks

I agree, but crazy to hold some random dumb prospective voter more accountable than the candidate of one of the two major US parties

I don’t suppose you can see the irony in repeatedly listing the bad things (we all agree, they’re extremely bad) Trump is doing instead of listing anything good that Harris ran on.

Oh, close! It was her job to do that, actually!

Yes, sorry should have named it. A child died of it last year from an infection she contracted when she was too young to be vaccinated.

I don't think it's extreme to say anti-vaxxers killed her

If you took $1 billion and gave it to the endowment of a different small college each day, they could each provide a free college education to several hundred students per year in perpetuity. Instead we are using that money to bomb schools and kill students in Iran, for no clearly stated purpose.

If the government gets to decide if you have them, they're not human rights.

That’s what I love about this military budget, man. I get older, it keeps getting smaller.

Just realized that with Abolish ICE at +11, it's polling over 30 percentage-points ahead of Trump approval. Guess that means if the media wants to be representative, it should give at least like 40% more airtime to people who support abolishing ICE to Trump supporters

Hope Democrats are taking note; it is not enough to merely be Not Republican

It’s funny because Labour has to know they’ve only been successful recently because of how much people hate conservative policies and talking points. They embraced those policies and talking points and Tory’d themselves!

Ah, ok, honestly first I’ve heard of that. I’m guessing you mean union won’t agree to it unless there’s a floor? Fair assumption but still only an assumption?

Maybe I’m missing something, how does implementing a salary cap force any owners to spend more than they currently are?

03.03.2026 05:21 πŸ‘ 0 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

Yeah, I am. I am arguing that this β€œfix” is worse so they shouldn’t do it

03.03.2026 05:11 πŸ‘ 2 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

I don’t think anyone is arguing that the system isn’t broken. We’re just arguing you shouldn’t reward the owners for breaking it

Story time, y'all, about the time I witnessed nearly this exact scenario play out in real time.

It's 2003 or 2004. Serena, Venus, Anna Kournikova, and Brenda Shultz-McCarthy played an indoor exhibition event at Rupp Arena.

Both Williams sisters had won majors at this point. 🧡/x

β€œDirect your anger at Trump. Not the Dems”

As of right now, the 2 Dem leaders are:

-not in favor of abolishing ICE and DHS
-not in favor of an arms embargo against Israel
-not in favor of lifting the embargo against Cuba
-not in favor of leaving Venezuela alone

01.03.2026 01:16 πŸ‘ 1559 πŸ” 388 πŸ’¬ 29 πŸ“Œ 17

Nope. We don't have to do this. The courageous act would be to refuse. Jingoist slop like this is an enormous factor in why the US has been terrorizing the world for decades. There are no heroes bombing Iran.

I'm already sick of "It's all a distraction from Epstein" replies. This regime is killing innocent people because our leaders are all power-hungry tyrants and war profiteers. When you say it's "just a distraction" you minimize the gravity of what's happening and the lives lost.
