Talk your parents into doing it, then you are set!

Adding missing info? Like, encouraging the hallucinations? Then retraining on those?
This could set back the AI superintelligence by years, I'm all for it.

I know stopping them could get you in trouble if they are legit ICE... but what if you just, kinda, put on your own gaiter and walked with them? Head to their office like a reporter on a signal chat?

Is this the world's first Axolotl Tank from the Dune series? Didn't we learn from the classic novel, "Don't Create the Torment Nexus"?

I've been seeing this a lot lately. You use a pronoun, and they get bent out of shape, even when the pronoun wasn't even aimed at them. I've gotten it twice now, and both times it's like, "Obama is a he, what are you on about?"

I try to evaluate things based on the evidence for how they work, and benefits and costs and so on... instead of "Well, Team Left believes X so I guess I should too."

I have conservative friends and I understand and respect their beliefs... and I have left wing friends who I understand and respect their beliefs.

Well, I like a lot of lefty ideas: social Healthcare, ubi, safety nets, reconciliation, equality, free speech, etc etc. And also right ideas like markets are good, and overregulation is bad, and free speech, and local government is often better than countrywide.

I'd call myself a centrist, but then this cop says a whole lot of weird stuff he accuses centrists of doing and I do none of it... so I guess I'm not one? But I wouldn't want to be in any group he's a part of either. So... who knows?

Yup, that's a cop answer if I ever heard one. I'll stop resisting right away, officer!

Do you know how the FBI is so successful at taking on the Left? They just walk into a group and start demanding purity tests and being overly angry at anybody who opens their mouths. Sane leftys walk away, psycho ones stick around and get in trouble.
Are you a cop?

I haven't met you with any rage, or bad faith, or dishonesty. You read as non stop rage and accusations of evil intent. I'm out, you do... whatever this is. It's totally working.

This is still the approach you have to take: take over the party, which you do by primary challenges. Or go make your own party, I think that's been tried several hundred times to no or even negative effectiveness.

I suggested you to try primarying people, what on earth are you talking about that I really want you to jot so that? And don't respect you if you try? Dude. Seriously. If this is what you do when people suggest things, no wonder they don't respect you.

Make sure to give up as early as possible, that is a far more effective strategy. You could keep trying, but... nah.

You guys could do the hard work of primary challenges everywhere and fix the party. That's how the absolute insane MAGA took over the Republicans: ruthless removal of anybody who wasn't in line with them. Or, whine more about how they aren't good enough, and you cant vote for a lesser evil.

Bit if a controversial play, he pulled a string off his jersey and flossed his teeth for 10 mins on the field. Seemed to work well, as the Neon pulled off a 6-1 win!

A on the DL this week with a serious Owie on his foot. Hope he recovers for next week. D had a solid game vs the Yellow team.

I'm not in govt. Specifics will get argued out in committees and such, which is why this stuff takes more than 3 days to happen. You want 1 cheque, that can happen in a week... you want a comprehensive national plan? Months. Years, maybe.

I'm trying to respect that "I'm disengaging". The kinda thing I thought a disability advocate would like. You've sent me what, 6 replies since?
And you call me a troll.

Pressure away! Bit being realistic is good too. "Why haven't you solved global climate change, which is decades in the making, in a week?! FFS" is a quick way to get ignored by anybody in charge.

You accused me of mishendering for no reason, called me a troll several times, have been rude the whole time, and now this is how you keep score? Wow. I see why you are so rude, you can't even see what you are like.
