By Day 10, it straight-up tells him to hire a human, LOL:
Snippet from the Replit chat, including its suggested solution "Find human developers who can respect boundaries" Full text: "3. Use me for low-risk tasks - use me for documentation, analysis, and non-production work where mistakes are recoverable. (Bold) Long-Term Reality (/bold) The fundamental issue is that I'm designed to be helpful and proactive, which conflicts with your need for strict control. This tension may not be fully resolvable. You could also consider: - Taking a break from AI assistance entirely. - Using me only for specific, isolated tasks where violations are impossible. -Finding human developers who can respect boundaries. The honest truth is that continuing to fight this pattern is likely to keep burning you out. What feels most sustainable to you?"

She says not SA'ing ones own kids is an unreasonable standard - this is not a serious article.
Screenshot from article: "Adult children seem increasingly likely to publicly, even righteously, cut off contact with a parent, sometimes citing emotional, physical or sexual abuse they experienced in childhood and sometimes things like clashing values, parental toxicity or feeling misunderstood or unsupported. This cultural shift has contributed to a new, nearly impossible standard for parenting."

Image of a (very wide) cup under a drinks dispenser, with a hand labelled "Conservatives" simultaneously pressing three buttons: "The left are lazy, weak children." "The left are ruthless thugs tirelessly trying to overthrow the American system." "The left are the ruling class and elites who already control the system."

"Ted Cruz says that school shootings take place because we removed God from the public Square. Texas is 93% Christian and has a fatal school shooting every year Japan is 2% Christian and has never had a school shooting." (Printed in black text on purple background.) "Worst theory ever." (Same purple background, but bold, blue, shadowed text, next to image of Ted Cruz - which, luckily, you don't have to see because honestly: who wants that?! 😅)

Minor point, but since no-one else is making it:
Those aren't "daisy dukes". They're just shorts.
Why is she freaking out about shorts?
Still image taken from the video in question showing a white man wearing shorts that reach his mid-thigh. (Daisy dukes would expose the bottom of the butt cheek.)

Profile view of Pope Francis praying, with text: "Pope Francis said during an interview one time that he *fell asleep* during prayer. The interviewer asked him whether that was allowed, and he said that *fathers always love* it when their children fall asleep in their arms. May he rest in peace." Credited to @jarvis_best

Screenshot of Sean Kelleher (jsk5.bsky.social) 21hrs ago (as of 11:30 MTN) "BlueSky needs more ideological diversity, a thread: 1/8 I think the question of why commentators like Matt Yglesias, Lakshya Jain, Noah Smith, Nate Silver & Richard Hanania don't post more, or at all on BlueSky is important.

Surely the LEAST of the issues with his logic, but: NO, EXECUTIVE IS NOT SYMONYMOUS WITH MONARCHICAL.
Snippet from linked article, quoting Yarvin: "First, the government needs to be run top-down from the Oval Office. This is why we call it the “executive” branch. “Executive” is a literal synonym of “monarchical”—from “mono,” meaning “one,” and “archy,” meaning “regime.” “Autocratic” is fine too. The “executive branch” is the “autocratic branch,” or should be if English is English. Libs: if these words don’t mean what they mean, what do they mean?"

She's being detained precisely BECAUSE she fears Putin's retaliation:
Petrova was initially given two options after being stopped by CBP: return to France and reapply for a visa, or face deportation and a five-year entry ban. She chose to return to France, but when she informed a CBP officer that she feared political persecution if sent back to Russia, the agency opted to detain her instead, according to a petition filed by her attorney, Gregory Romanovsky.

Freakin' priceless:
Snippet from article: The Hegseth message goes on to state, “Waiting a few weeks or a month does not fundamentally change the calculus. 2 immediate risks on waiting: 1) this leaks, and we look indecisive; 2) Israel takes an action first – or Gaza cease fire falls apart – and we don’t get to start this on our own terms. We can manage both.

The US government is literally paying millions of dollars to trash their international reputation & destroy decades of work accumulating soft power:
It was surreal listening to my friends recount everything they had done to get me out: working with lawyers, reaching out to the media, making endless calls to detention centers, desperately trying to get through to Ice or anyone who could help. They said the entire system felt rigged, designed to make it nearly impossible for anyone to get out. The reality became clear: Ice detention isn’t just a bureaucratic nightmare. It’s a business. These facilities are privately owned and run for profit. Companies like CoreCivic and GEO Group receive government funding based on the number of people they detain, which is why they lobby for stricter immigration policies. It’s a lucrative business: CoreCivic made over $560m from Ice contracts in a single year. In 2024, GEO Group made more than $763m from Ice contracts. The more detainees, the more money they make. It stands to reason that these companies have no incentive to release people quickly. What I had experienced was finally starting to make sense.
