Spending time arguing with bots on social media platforms has been such a waste of time at best. Soul and country-destroying at worse.
Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

New Town bakery is the BEST for Chinese buns! The pineapple buns with a pat o' butter....mmmm....
New Town Bakery is a staple of Vancouver’s Chinatown, and for good reason. 
 
This family-run small business has been serving some of the city’s best steamed buns for generations. Thanks to MP Chang and MP Fry for bringing me there this week.

Trillions have been invested into AI and I find myself absolutely bored reading AI generated answers.

I prefer reading students writing with all those errors and mistakes. Humans learning, failing, and struggling is interesting.

Trillions spent and it's still not anywhere near as good as you.

She’s cool in my books. Seriously, why are you a billionaire? What could you possibly need with all that money, when the world is on fire?
Billie Eilish has a message for billionaires: “Give your money away, shorties.”

The imbecilic, child-raping, rotting corpse known as Trump claims this is fake.

It's not.

It’s hard to convey just how much Chicagoans are mobilizing against ICE. Don’t want to downplay the harm, or make it seem like a fair fight. But in neighborhoods across this city, ICE is getting chased by people blowing whistles and shouting. People are running TOWARD ICE to protect their neighbors.

Brilliant! How can you possibly be mean to a bouncy blowup mascot?
It’s the Feds making Portland look like a war zone— not the protesters.

And honestly, these protesters are brilliant. They’re flipping the whole authoritarian cosplay on its ass!
