You can locate the total marks because they believe something Mike Lee said

i don't really ascribe to the "touch grass" theory of mental health but offer instead a similar "big lizard" model where a trip to the zoo to see a big iguana or gila monster from a few feet away really does wonders

Defeatism serves no purpose and there is no reason to tell people that are fighting that they should just roll over

Civilization enters another suicidal episode

taking this moment, between the terrible supreme court opinions, the concentration camps, and the bill in the senate, to go on tour of cable news to trash the dem nominee for mayor of nyc, and to do it while lying about him and peddling in obvious islamophobic rhetoric…it’s truly black pilling

i genuinely dont know what other industry has failed as speculatively as journalism has failed at meeting this moment we are talking about whether zohran is going to do a sharia law while gop has been trying to pass a bill to strip medicaid to pay for concentration camps like

I’m never talking to chat gpt, if you think I’m asking meta AI anything you’re out of your fucking gourd.

I would simply get the propaganda vaccine if I were not immune to propaganda.

i am immune to llm slop philosophy because i have already read plenty of artisinal bespoke slop of much higher magnitude and lived

Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It ‘s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

The Crock Pot is one of the only times when real life works like video game crafting. You dump in some powders and the remains of several vile birds and out comes hot delicious food

Pretty interesting story

all of the Supreme Court’s jurisprudence about executive power - all of it - can be replaced with a simple flow chart. is the president a Republican? if so it’s ok. if not, it’s presumptively not ok.

from “student debt forgiveness is tyranny” to “the president is allowed to point at someone and have them summarily executed on the spot” in 2 years

the lead from city slickers two: the legend of curly’s gold backing a winner after all these years never too late for a redemption arc!

This is the idealized model of an animal. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like. 🎢⚛️🧪

Oh you say you have a wound on your toe that's turning black? That my friend is a mandatory evac

it’s wild that you can just watch the president of the united states post through an emotional meltdown.

Very funny time to be following the Mads Mikkelsen feed

i for one can't imagine what it would be like to have the mind of a woman but a guy deep in your brain telling you to smoke and commit acts of performative violence

we making bad comics?

Just heard a Republican dude make an actionable threat in public about a certain senator from Utah

One of the big things we see in the desert is people consuming plenty of water but not enough salt and buddy you do not want to experience hyponatremia

I think AI is going to eventually tank in the longterm, but... the only real way to combat this is single-interest communities. Forums, user comms, etc, with a barrier to entry. They become trustable knowledgebases. It's really the only way forward is to return to what worked best the first time

The joy of thinking

💾 New from me: i interviewed @cara.city about the Telnet literary zine New Session, rejecting algorithms & AI brainrot, and the return of what i’m calling the Slow Internet 🐢 🖥️

Saw a video of of me as a child, using words like "what's the agenda with this video recording you are making of me" Confirming yet again that I somehow sprung from the womb fully formed

There are times when all I can think about is everything except the thing I need to be

Some of the best (and worst) things about humanity are the results of us going, "actually, I will remake the territory to match my map," hubristically imposing our individual and collective ideas into physical being

Sometimes I miss back when if the answer to a question wasn't in your encyclopedia it was time to put on your shoes and grab your hat.
