The Spotify DJ can't pronounce many artist's names right but then goes and correctly pronounces Björk (rhyming with jerk) like a fucking psycho

3 cops on a 53 yo woman.

Henry wanted to remind you that it’s okay to be grumpy. There’s lots to be grumpy about & toxic positivity is bad for your soul.

One thing that’s different now is there’s virtually no shared foundation of reality, at least not online.
And that’s largely purposeful.
It’s all a bunch of engines to produce emotional reactivity, and we’re all parts of those engines—consciously or not—while also being subjected to their effects.

It's interesting how coincidental it is that the stories that people have always dovetail exactly with their beliefs

We're definitely entering an era where the Internet is so hollowed out, so untrustworthy and compromised, that real world interactions, things identifiably done by human beings, will take on greater value and purpose.

I no longer see job listings in any of the areas that I used to find employment in that aren't centered around AI. Unemployed 2 years now. People are debating this fucking topic like it's theoretical, but it's ruining people's lives in real time as you debate minor points on the issue.

Gavin Newsom literally dressed up in his best Bad Boy™️ attire, invited the press, and smiled as he destroyed everything these constituents had in the world.
Gavin Newsom is not a bad candidate;
Gavin Newsom is truly, at his core, a bad and despicable human being.

Bootlicking flag-wavers for authoritarianism want to foster a fundamentally inhumane world. Why? Because they eagerly capitulate to largely made-up fears, and then seek to sublimate their abject cowardice into "action" in the form of bringing harm to others. It's pathetic.

I keep seeing an older couple in a black jeep with the plate "LLVM". They don't look like they write compilers so I need to know what it means.
