Say it after me: Chat GPT is not a search engine. It does not scan the web for information, it just generates statistically likely sentences. You cannot use it a search engine, or as a substitute for searching. Now. Please never use an LLM for information searches ever again.

You've no doubt heard that the Great Library of Alexandria was destroyed in a fire and with it, centuries of knowledge, learning & prose. But that's not the ACTUAL story. The TRUE story of the destruction of the Great Library of Alexandria has more to teach us than the myth.

Touching grass is no longer enough. I need to fade into the wood until I'm a mere echo of memory. I need to moulder in a bed of fallen leaves. I need to be ✨subsumed✨

Young people: The GOP is floating an amendment to raise the voting age from 18 to 25. Vivek Ramaswamy is openly promoting it. They’re scared of your votes and want to silence you. Act appropriately in 2024.
