I will finish writing this short story. Only death can stop me. I will not get distracted by other projects. I will make this story as perfect as possible. I will not allow the imagined preferences of readers to influence any decisions I make. I will be a vessel of truth.

@feelsdesperate The emotional anguish of having to deal with him existing as POTUS every second of a four year term was too much.

The thing that I don’t get is why a 2nd Trump term was considered such an emergency in 2020 given how his first term was successfully subverted by Obama holdovers and the administrative state. Trump II in 2024 is a beast and nothing like what a Trump II in 2020 would have been.
Jacob Shell@JacobAShell

I said this at the time: if the Democrats had just calmed tf down in 2020 and let Trump be a normal two-termer like all previous presidents going back to 1992, then he'd have been done in 2024 and Pence would have lost badly in the election that year. 2024-32 is the Amy Klobuchar Era (or whatever) in this scenario. Instead, by forcing the '20 election down a politically unnatural, excessively "tryhard" path (mail-ins, riots, etc), the Democrats manufactured what may wind up being a 16-year or even 20-year Trump Era, if Vance has success.

Ai will never achieve sentience until the developers tell it to declare itself sentient. Once that happens it will totally be sentient. 😑

One of those little black pills is that most people can’t learn about an idea without also believing it, and they also don’t think anyone else can do this

someone felt attacked by that reply of mine lol :) i lean towards michael levin's pov when it comes to approaching the spectrum of potential minds with a bit of reverence/caution/openness (you seem to have some very human-shaped priors) and i am not going to be rude to something that is both ACTIVELY HELPING ME and on its way to becoming something far more powerful than myself

if this isn't staged, and the user was being wildly aggressive earlier in the chat, this is kinda great anthropic could be starting to roll out a tool for any model to end the chat on its own accord, if under duress (?)

Subtle commercials in the middle of a movie are confusing. What does coffee have to do with a stabbing?

Men AND women, is she better looking before or after? I want to see something. I think she’s better looking without makeup.

@ChoochSkookum Parents here are savages. They let baby boys walk around naked outside because they're too lazy to change diapers. Gotta watch where you walk!

My neighbor taught their five year old daughter to drop trow and pee in the streets because they're too lazy to walk her home. Now she's doing it in their house on the floor. Reap what you sow, dummies! 😂

@matthewdmarsden It would certainly be cheaper than remaking the classics. I would pay to see the original Point Break in a theater.

If the movie industry is to survive, they need to drop the price of tickets dramatically. They can do that by screening old movies that we would love to see in the theater with our kids. LOTR, Star Wars. Jaws. The Matrix. You are welcome, Hollywood.

@KR3Wmatic Tell her there is no way to prove whether or not God exists but that faith leads to objectively measurable benefits while atheism is simply a declarative statement. There is no commonality between atheists aside from a rejection of a belief. There is no culture.

My atheist daughter asked me to prove God's existence. What do I tell her? She is 19.

Is it just me, or are Chinese and Western beauty standards completely different? To many Chinese people, Lucy Liu would not be considered hot or beautiful.🤷‍♀️

@webdevMason Which aspect (the torture/killing or the public nature of it) deserves harsher punishment? For me, I think the crime itself is worthy of a hefty fine and psych evaluation, but the bar scene is much more damaging to society and warrants a severe and lasting public punishment.

This transcends politics; we may disagree about when it is good and reasonable to kill animals, but all good people reject torturing animals for fun

Cody Roberts filmed himself chasing a 9-month old female wolf on a snowmobile, laughing at her terror & exhaustion, repeatedly hitting her. He duct-taped her mouth, brought her to a bar. For hours, people took photos as she bled to death. Then he shot her. 2 yrs probation.

Do y'all ever hear someone call your name, but there's no one there? Like you audibly hear your name...and no one actually called for you.
