I’ve been saying for a year that today’s US is not like 1930s Germany. We are not a go-along-to-get-along culture. We don’t see Brownshirts marching through town and hope they’ll go away soon.

If you're using AI to write essays, eulogies, a text to your wife, I do think less of you as a person. Ceding your mental and creative abilities to a machine is an embarrassing thing and people should be ashamed to admit doing it in public.

You couldn’t get me to go public with my fight with a pierogi vendor at the farmers market if my life depended on it. How humiliating
After a Martha’s Vineyard pierogi vendor refused to sell to him, Epstein’s lawyer plans to sue a farmer’s market so that they must sell to him.

Agree with this take 100%. Wife said there's gonna be "I Am In The Epstein Files" for sale at MAGA events soon and I think she's right. They're gonna celebrate it.
We’re one more revelation away from MAGA telling us that sexually abusing teenage girls is good, actually.

A Nazi owns Twitter, right wing billionaires own the Wall Street Journal and the LA Times, and CBS is run by a right wing nepo baby who just fired one of the network’s biggest stars for criticizing Donald Trump. Here’s why America has a left-wing media bias problem.

Any person in uniform wearing a mask and refusing to be properly and reliably identified should be assumed to be the same kind of murderer we’ve seen in Minnesota.
Shooters were dressed like law enforcement and this is exactly why I’m pissed about ice officers wearing masks, driving unmarked cars and not being identifiable when they terrorize communities

Some advice to the doom and gloom crowd who wanna speedrun straight to armed rebellion/dystopic hoarding - if I can’t trust you to show up to city council meetings and give public comment, what the fuck makes you think I’m going to trust you with a weapon at my back?

Still can’t believe we elected the Hamburglar.
As part of the red-carpet treatment, Saudi officials arranged for a fully operational mobile McDonald’s unit to accompany President Trump during his stay.
According to local reports, the unit was set up near the Saudi Royal Court.

On the other hand, pro-AI people talk about it like they’re trying to unload a shitty used car. “Does it always work right? Absolutely not! Do you need to take extra annoying steps to receive worse results? Of course! But that’s the real beauty of it…”
Some of the anti-AI stuff feels a bit like when people would say "don't use Wikipedia as a source." It's just like anything else, a piece of information that you weigh against multiple sources and your own understanding of its likely failure modes
