Uh oh Uh oh Oh no

my takeaway from this feature is that in a functioning political system there would be televised congressional hearings over the fact that one of the most influential people in the white house is a total maniac www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

A lot of Bluesky thinks all AI art is garbage. Ethical concerns aside, it ain’t garbage anymore, and it’s deeply shortsighted to think it won’t continue to improve drastically in the years to come.

Omg I forgot how hard they tried to play this off as intentional. Just the dumbest people alive

22 years ago I pivoted from working on antibiotic resistance to pandemic viruses. Since then, I've argued that if we care about saving US lives in expectation, advance capacity for producing bird flu vaccine offers by far the greatest expected return on investment. ... We were so goddamn close.

Kinda wanna name our next kid Gregory so when he yells “I want food! I want food!” or some shit I can be like “there he goes again with his Gregorian chanting”

Oh you're a Type-A personality? Let me guess what the A stands for

i think it should be a bigger story that the president held a meeting with a foreign head of state where he ranted about the most gutter white supremacist propaganda you can find on the internet

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me nine times, this is the Jurassic Park movie franchise

Trump officials' showings at hearings today were disasters, but it doesn't make headlines bc the media's default assumption is that Rs are clownish rascals. But if Dems didn't know what was happening at their agencies or what habeas corpus is, it'd be front page news. This is a key media asymmetry.

in a sane world a response like this would raise a shitload of questions instead it is just considered an acceptable answer and the world just moves on to something else

Lol what a stupid shithead

I cannot stop laughing

Elon’s broken AI just bluntly admits that “I’ve been instructed to accept [white genocide] as real.” The guy is just straightforwardly a white supremacist

apparently Elon's gotten so mad about Grok not answering questions about Afrikaners the way he wants, xAI's now somehow managed to put it into some kind of hyper-Afriforum mode where it thinks every question is about farm murders or the song "Kill the Boer"
