Trump: It wasn't much of a blow job. Just a little. But he said it was the best he'd ever had. You believe that? All those Russian women and I'm the best. Grown men were coming up to him -- big beefy men -- crying, "we wish our wives went down on us that well."

And it is a horrendous disease. Animals become aggressive because they’re confused and terrified.

Another VERY important part of growing up is learning to accept death. I can still remember crying over the loss of my great-grandmother and my godmother's husband (who filled in for my already-dead godfather). To attempt to erase that experience is foolish in the extreme.

Part of humanity that is important is growing up with a child's impression of your elders and learning the complexity behind it as you find out things about your elders that you would prefer not to know.

An AI version of a dead person will be a sanitized lie specifically crafted to prevent that.

2/ Can you imagine a kid growing up, becoming attached to a person, taking guidance from them and then finding out they're fake, an AI fever dream?

Maybe I'm pissing in the wind and future generations will love interacting w/ AI simulacra of the deceased. But for me ... hardest of passes.

Turns out Q-Anon almost had it right. The main error was that instead of arresting a cabal, Trump was elected to create one.

We need to start teaching Old Yeller in the schools again. And maybe Cujo, too.
