@tegmark As a human being, I don’t welcome this. Our extinction is apt to be, uh, bad for us. But humans being in charge for the last few thousand years hasn’t worked out to well, so I can’t help thinking that more intelligent beings might do better.

I’ve been shocked to discover exactly this over the years through personal conversations. It helps explain why some AI researchers aren’t more bothered by human extinction risk: It’s *not* that they find it unlikely, but that they welcome it!

@JamesEsses Thanks for the heads up! I’ll add this to the “things that don’t affect me” list.

NHS still using the term ‘chestfeeding’…

@conor64 @WesleyLowery @_jack_fox_ @JeffreyASachs @charlescwcooke It’s like teaching about the horrors of sex trafficking and having one brief mention that some of the victims learned some sex techniques that benefitted them in later relationships.

@WesleyLowery @_jack_fox_ @JeffreyASachs @charlescwcooke First, I don't agree that one brief mention of this among hundreds of other things about slavery means that this one thing has been "prioritized." As for why one would mention it *at all*, taking that bullet point and the one right above it in my screenshot together,

This @charlescwcooke piece is quite persuasive in illustrating how misleading the VP's comments are nationalreview.com/corner/kamala-…

@MsMelChen Bronze Age superstition, most likely.

Everyone has a God-shaped hole in their hearts. The question is: what’s going to fill it?

@larryjones “Guess whether I’m lying” sounds like a fun approach. Sadly, I must decline.

Follow me for more great content satire and real. You get to decide which one.

Happening Now: Country Music Television (CMT) is still paying the price for canceling Jason Aldean’s video “Try That In a Small Town.” In what may be the most crushing blow yet, country megastar Blake Shelton has announced that he’s backing out of a $30 million project with the network. “Jason is my friend,” said Shelton, “He deserves better than the disrespect shown to him by CMT.” Welcome back to your Oklahoma values! Great change from Garth Brooks! @blakeshelton

@1989downing @cjpearson Why do I suspect that you think the violent inner cities that rappers talk about are a problem, while the violent small towns that Andean talks about are fine?

@cjpearson You wanna know what's wrong with Jason Aldean and country music talking about what’ll happen if you come into their hood? The answer is nothing. If rappers can sing about what’ll happen if you come into their hood, then so can country singers or any genre of singers.

Rappers talk all the time about what’ll happen if you come in their hood, what’s wrong with Jason Aldean and country music doing the same?

@cjpearson Pointing out that both gangsta rappers and Aldean imply that if you don’t follow the rules where they’re from there’s a good chance you will be murdered is a weird flex, but OK.

@JamesEsses Uhhh who gives a fuck?

Because of the manipulation of language and the ignoring of biological reality, the NHS now spend money on pamphlets like this, clarifying to ‘trans and non binary people’ what parts of the human anatomy they actually possess.

@ScamNetwon @DistressedPickL @TheMostDeepDing @AmiriKing @J_R_Sastre (Psst. That’s my point. 👀)

@asskickerofyou @DistressedPickL @TheMostDeepDing @AmiriKing @J_R_Sastre Name one.

Here…I’ll take this little boy to school. The Republican Party was formed in 1854 by President Lincoln to exclusively combat slavery. To give you an idea how stupid you sound, famous abolitionist Harriet Tubman was a spy for the Union army. Now, let’s see how things stack up as far as amendments: 13th Amendment - Abolished slavery - Supported by 100% of Republicans and 23% of Democrats 15th Amendment - Right to vote for all - Supported by 100% of Republicans and 0% of Democrats 14th Amendment - Citizenship for freed slaves - Supported by 94% of Republicans and 0% of Democrats Don’t go looking for mermaids if you don’t know how to swim, son.

@Imagecaptured @BeLikeGumby @Jason_Aldean Here she is.

@BeLikeGumby @Jason_Aldean George Floyd was a criminal, not a hero.

In the past 24 hours I have been accused of releasing a pro-lynching song (a song that has been out since May) and was subject to the comparison that I (direct quote) was not too pleased with the nationwide BLM protests. These references are not only meritless, but dangerous. There is not a single lyric in the song that references race or points to it- and there isn’t a single video clip that isn’t real news footage -and while I can try and respect others to have their own interpretation of a song with music- this one goes too far. As so many pointed out, I was present at Route 91-where so many lost their lives- and our community recently suffered another heartbreaking tragedy. NO ONE, including me, wants to continue to see senseless headlines or families ripped apart. Try That In A Small Town, for me, refers to the feeling of a community that I had growing up, where we took care of our neighbors, regardless of differences of background or belief. Because they were our neighbors, and that was above any differences. My political views have never been something I’ve hidden from, and I know that a lot of us in this Country don’t agree on how we get back to a sense of normalcy where we go at least a day without a headline that keeps us up at night. But the desire for it to- that’s what this song is about.

@Jason_Aldean Oh, well if it’s been out since May.

@TPostMillennial Any Trump supporter who ever supports DeSantis is a punk-ass bitch.

Trump on DeSantis: “The more people get to know him, the lower his polls are going. He will soon not be number 2. He deserves it because he’s a very disloyal person.”

@LordKasen @TheodoreNougat @davidharsanyi @redsteeze This is a great gif.

@asskickerofyou @TheodoreNougat @davidharsanyi @redsteeze

If you think it's ok to kill a viable, healthy, 30-week-old human being and then burn them to hide the evidence, I think maybe you do need religion.

@DontheBiker66 @byjayroot So we agree again.

This is a photo of a baby being passed through concertina wire near Eagle Pass, Texas yesterday. 1/4

@Optimus_DadLA @JperiodCperiod @DeedaInCT @byjayroot It’s telling that conservatives can’t imagine objecting to something on the mere grounds that it is cruel.

@JperiodCperiod @DeedaInCT @byjayroot If physical barriers didn’t slow illegal immigration, Democrats wouldn’t fight against them so hard

@CONative007 @ChuckCallesto Fight you for it.

@ChuckCallesto Amen. Real Americans feel this way. Everyone else should make their way to the exits.

JUST IN: Jason Aldean doubles down, “I love our country. I want to see it restored to what it once was before all this bulls—t started happening to us.” “I love my country, I love my family, and I WILL DO ANYTHING TO PROTECT THAT, I can tell you that.”

@RealBenCarson Can you clarify what you mean by “try to cancel?”

I don’t understand how the left will try to cancel a song about not putting up with criminal behavior— yet has no reaction to songs that sexualize and degrade women or glorify gang violence and drug dealing. Freedom of expression and speech is only ok when it doesn’t push back on their agenda. It’s repulsive. America is imploding from within. But I have faith God isn’t done with our country because We the People will return it to greatness. Like if you agree.

@TomiLahren Perhaps you should consider shutting your dumb trap.

If you won’t stand for our anthem or salute our flag, perhaps you should consider taking your ungrateful ass to another country you may respect more. So many to choose from. Bye.
