AI is a lack of consent machine, that is an extension of people’s belief in transactional relationships .
One of the hardest parts of their convo is going to be handling how we communicate around the reality that the desire for control to the point of never hearing no is a maladaption

"And I never say no"
We need to have a serious talk about the way "AI companion" apps not only prey on the vulnerable, but are priming their users to ignore consent and to conflate love with control.
We need AI regulations across so many sectors, but this area is particularly horrifying.

They're enabling creepy lonely men to create submissive "AI companions" that can be modeled on whatever real-life woman they're obsessed with and made to do whatever they want and, Jesus Christ, I need to wash my hands just typing that.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has stated that the 1918 flu pandemic was caused by a lab virus from vaccine research, a defective influenza vaccine. Let’s analyze what a lie this is. First, in 1918, 107 years ago, virology was in its infancy

This year has been a lot and I’ve barely had time to breathe but I came across Gabor Mate from seeing a clip from his interview with Trevor Noah. When I tell you that Mate’s “Scattered Minds” book is the best thing I’ve come across, I’m not exaggerating. I’ve had so many “OMG! This is it!” moments.

The 'kin' of ‘napkin’ means "little."
‘Nap’ comes from ‘nape,' which means “tablecloth.”
So a napkin is a little tablecloth.

Saying this as a parent.
Parents have obligations toward their kids. Not the other way around.
If a parent is abusive, manipulative, or damaging, children have every right to cut them out of their lives.
No one is obligated to put up with abuse from a parent. That's not how it works.
