This disastrous era is really helping us draw a hard, bright line between the awful people and the very slightly less awful people.

LLMs are a legitimate expression of human creativity. We’re not out scraping everyone else’s actual work to produce an ugly, incoherent knockoff of actual sentience.

I was gonna say I’d like to throw in everyone who ever used the term “sexual market value” nonironically, but that Venn diagram is probably a circle.

Given the choice between doing fuck-all and smashing every one of these people into their constituent atoms, I’m fine with the latter option even if I wind up living in a cardboard box. I mean, I’d make that trade to destroy one of these people. But all of ‘em and everything they built? Yes, please!

I am against the death penalty in 99.9% of cases. But when a leaders anuses state power to kill for fun and profit, execution is just a healthy immune response. Wealthy, privileged sadists torturing and murdering helpless people for kicks, and calling it law and order, are begging for it.

The death penalty makes perfect sense for people who seek the highest levels of political power. Having that power should entail accepting more accountability. Hell, there are days I think anyone with a net worth of more than $50 million should be eligible as well.

After decades of proclaiming that “AI is ten years away,” they just decided to say, “OK, fuck it, it’s here.” I mean, why even bother trying to pass the Turing test when actual people can barely do it anymore?

Dear New Yorker,
Are you guys actually this credulous about AI PR releases, or were your palms greased?

Thinking back to those innocent days when I was against capital punishment in all cases. Abuse of power on Bindi’s scale begs for it, and the number of Trump officials who *only* deserve life in prison is rapidly dwindling.

One thing I keep wondering: When Epstein’s operation went down, a lot of horrible people presumably lost relatively safe and organized access to vulnerable kids. To what extent, if any, has Trump and Putin’s regime of wholesale child theft been a response to this “problem”?

If someone is in ICE it is not only reasonable but safe to assume that he’s a sexual abuser or an apologist for it. The job has no appeal to anyone else.

Can‘t look weak on crime, so we’ve gotta keep funding the secretive army of masked insurrectionists, white supremacists, rapists, sex traffickers, far-right terrorists and domestic abusers who break more laws in a day, as a matter of actual policy, than the average criminal breaks in a year.
