Does anyone want to make me some free soldier models and animations for the game I'm making? I'll pay you with publicity. (JK, there's no publicity, because it's never going to be a success, but hey it keeps me busy in my spare time!)

Why does the world think a language model designed purely to understand and form language, is somehow capable of magically thinking and doing human jobs?

So they're going to release the files now? I assume that means they've destroyed all incriminating evidence.

Is series 4 of The Witcher written terribly or is it just me? The original main actors are all excellent.. now they're in a show with the same structure as a sitcom.

The sad part of the whole Trump Epstein scandal is that people think this is unusual behaviour. In the 80s and 90s the date rape drug boom saw children being sexually exploited all across England.. rich and poor. Forcibly addicted to drugs.. their bodies sold to thousands of men. Humans are foul.

Life is so bad lately I almost started rewatching 'Enterprise'. Thank God I pulled myself out of it.

How do you regain power as a people when the lawful methods of gaining power have been corrupted.. not just Trump but for hundreds of years. The common man has been given an illusion of power but humanity seems to fall to corruption time and time again. Err asking for a friend.

Is it just me or is Michael Owen always on an ego trip? What he's saying may be true... but yeah no one wants to hear you saying how amazing you were. A career blighted by injury is no doubt a weight he has to carry.. but he can always choose to put it down. Ok bye.

Greta Thunberg's boat in the Gaza Aid Flotilla as bombed last night by drone whilst in Tunisia - thankfully she was not on it at the time (though one person was, I don't know their level of injury). Facebook seem to be blocking attempts to share videos of the bombing? Anyone have any more info?

Why do the British papers keep telling us to delete old emails to save water? What science is this based off? Unused static emails on a drive aren't using water. Deleting billions of emails will however use a great deal of server power and thus water. Surely this is complete bullshit??

I think men have shown clearly and repeatedly they are not capable of ruling. Further thought.. the maternal instinct is an evolutionary trait which favours leadership with the greater good in mind for those they care for. Why have we let corrupt men take over? Many reasons. None good.

If we're going to end up letting machines think for us... we need to ensure we trust whoever owns the machines. That is, unless you like cool dystopian sci fi. Will our governments choose wisely when all education moves to AI? When all medicine moves to AI? Is there even a good choice available?

I know this is unpleasant and even I'm getting tired of reading about it, but America having a paedophile as president does need mentioning until he's either in jail or dead. The man owned child beauty pageants? I suspect he was deeply involved with Epstein's operations, not just a 'client.'

The human race can be explained in one small sentence. We throw approximately 10 live baby chicks into a grinder every second around the world. Imagine an alien species looking down at us... we've barely crawled out of the ocean and we think we're gods.

Our society is based on exploitation, current and historical. The bad actors took/take everything they want through corruption of our politics. Our entire economy is non-sustainable, exploits workers, funnels money away from societies and into private hands, and will ultimately destroy the planet.

I'm not religious, but I think a great flood would be good about now. Seems the right time, no? I know a guy called Noah, I'll hit him up for a room.

The anti king demonstrations in America are amazing... but Trump and all his cronies need removing from office. The world is burning and he is a lunatic running around with his mushroom dick out lighting fires and pulling the legs off the few remaining insects. It cannot be called an administration.

People need to understand that you don't need to understand someone to accept them. We all live in our own little reality bubble.. which is what gives us diversity... but the lack of ability to perceive reality beyond your own is the beginning of bigotry.

My previous post should have had a trigger warning. Actually life should have a trigger warning. Humans are capable of such foulness but censorship keeps the general public unaware of the reality of the world.. nothing new here.

This certainly gives some credence to my theory. There is no place you cannot release humans.. other than death. Please do tell me if I'm wrong because I want to be wrong. imgur.com/gallery/FfLj...

Capitalism has become synonymous with exploitation. No system works if there are not proper checks and balances to protect the general population. We are so far beyond that point it would be laughable were it not so depressing.

We're all just fucking people doing what we can to survive. It's the choice not (or inability) to fuck other people over is what makes us different.
