2/2 nor does it include funding for school meals so the child can learn and be a good citizen instead of starving in an underfunded school.
MAGAs don’t give a flying fuck about mother or child.
This MUST be understood.

Once you’ve done the slide down the birth canal you are a “welfare baby” to these people. That woman they prayed over is now a “welfare mama,” expected to work minimum wage and raise the child with no public support, be it for daycare while she is forced to work… 1/2

Best of luck to you. Neighbor from KY here. Seems like our states have been in a competition to see who can reach bottom first.
Voices like yours lift us up.

As an atheist I’m happy to see we can set aside our differences and rally for a country where everyone is free to worship or not worship as they see fit.
Channels like yours give me hope we can work this all out.

This is beautiful. Is this your voice?
I’m a computer scientist of 40 years’ experience. I don’t hold with all the AI criticism if it’s clearly labeled.
Regardless, this song spoke to me.

Yeah. This drives me crazy.
I was going to write “drive’s me crazy” but… it burns us!

None of my loved ones, male, female, or otherwise, have ever taken the time to apply makeup and have their hair done in a hospital bed.
I mean, it’s her choice. But if you’re really sick, is this your #1 priority?

Divinity in AI?
🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Wrote my first neural network over 40 years ago. Not once in the intervening years has the divine been mentioned.
News media and social media who don’t have any background in the science? Yeah, I’ll grant they’ve commented a lot.

Sorry but this is imho unwarranted and a bit of a knee jerk reaction.
I can’t think of many things that at least some subset have NOT developed an obsession with.
AI, approached as a reasonable person, is a helpful tool that makes mistakes.
Want unhealthy obsession? Try religion or astrology

Amen. That’s how it’s supposed to be done.
Now we have top officials accidentally emailing military attack plans to magazines.
I would have been in more trouble than I can put into words if I pulled a stunt like that. And I sure as hell would no longer be employed.

I know, right? I had to check the legend before an enthusiastic thumbs-up.

Every time I am ashamed of Kentucky I always look to Tennessee for inspiration.
As bad as it gets here north of the Mason-Dixon Line, TN always beats us to the punch.

The Beehive was my college astronomy “mystery object” back in 1985. I will always be in love with it.
I grew up with a dept. store telescope; all my parents could afford. In college I got a computerized scope! One night instructor handed out index cards with coords and said “Find this for an A.” 🤓
