Trump wants NATO to rescue us, from us?? We are our worst threat right now, so...

I've harped on congressional war powers for a long time and we do need to fix all that, but threatening to invade Greenland while ranting at Norway about the Nobel Peace Prize and imposing trade sanctions on NATO is more the kind of thing you can only fix by not having a literally insane president.

I saw the image in your post, but just glanced at it, so it registered as "CBS Fucking News" and it made more sense than the actual wording on the image.

It sounds like comically specific hyperbole but it is verifiably true that in the same year Elon Musk predicted fully autonomous taxis serving half the nation, what actually happened was his chatbot became a pedophile

anyway, when you're wondering why AI can't do the job of historians, think about this image. none of this future collection is accessible to any LLM now; perhaps five decades from now, perhaps, 1% of this might be machine-readable. perhaps.

hard to overstate how bad this is for discrimination against everyone but white people.

I'm saying we are undergoing a wholesale revision of equal protection and anti-discrimination law so that it only protects white people.

Let me explain:

Trump is the only person with Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) and, yes, it is because whatever is left in his head is a steaming pile of crazy shit-for-brains.

AI is NOT data hygiene

40 years ago we’d have congressional hearings falsely accusing metal bands of putting backwards messages in their songs that told kids to kill themselves & now we have a planet-killing chatbot that’s all like β€œbet you won’t commit suicide chickenshit bitch” & the government is like here’s $5 billion

The "gold" signs at the WH are there to help Trump find his way. He gets lost like any old, senile, psychopath. Very helpful!

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

My dearest wife,

It is week two of the Siege of Portland, and still these barbarians will not yield to our troops. We have severed the cords of their latte machines but they are making cowboy coffee in their camps, where loud ukulele songs of resistance even now drift in on the breeze.
