Making an AI exception for my Christmas card this year. Please generate an image of my family all smiling on the beach, with a blurb about how much fun we had on the Mediterranean.

I was told a misallocation of a few hundred billion dollars would be preferable to missing out on the promise of computers that make shit up

I mean if the economy is ruined by enormous useless data centers, but I can make a video of them getting poop-bombed, are we really worse off?
when its definitely not a hostage situation

Had a reverse call-in today. They had this day off but the weather was so shitty they decided they'd rather just come to work

I've been fucking praying more I'll tell you that much
Trump: "We have more people praying. The churches are coming back. I don't know if you've been reading that story but religion is coming back to America."

It's kind of sad that phones are a useless technology now.

For a while, getting a call on your cell phone was the most important and urgent way to contact someone. Truly reliable emergency.

Now it's for banking ads and fraud scams. I might disable calls entirely on my phone.

Thinking about how if Pete Buttgieg had said what Sean Duffy said (dress up nice when you fly, no sweatpants and don't cuss anyone out when your flight is late) there would have been Hell To Pay

That's me in the corner
That's me in the SPOT LIGHT
I guess I heard about original sin
I heard the dudes blamed the chick
I heard the chick blamed the snake
And I heard they were naked when they got busted

I stopped watching the show at season 5? 6? Whenever it started to get past the written content.

Because I loved the books so much and didn't want to the show to color my reading of the story.

It was tough to avoid when everyone was talking about it as it aired, but I think it's worked out.
i feel like if you understand what the ending of the show was trying to say there's no point in having any content set after it.

Pop-up protest at the Target HQ today, or so I'm told

Last week I encountered a driverless car, summoned to the curb at the lifetime fitness.

Travelling in the wrong side of the parking lot lane and pulled up "salmoned" (facing the wrong way for the side of the road).

We were all punished, every one of us, by knowing him in the first place
New: Reuters has tallied job losses, suspensions and investigations stemming from the reaction to Charlie Kirk's Sept. 10 assassination. Its findings: More than 600 Americans have been punished, and the figure is likely to be an under-count.

I think it says something about the state of AI when a company posts a third or fourth consecutive bad earnings day and tries to distract from it by announcing an AI partnership

ICE came to town to abduct our neighbors, abuse our freedoms, and molest our people.

Glad to see we can hold strong on even one out of three.
