I genuinely made up a girlfriend when I was about 9. I said her name was Crystal. My friends called me out and asked me to call her in front of them on my dads radical corvette touchstone phone.

You spelled “dictator” wrong. FFS do some basic proofreading.

I think “Washington Propagandist” sounds better but it’s less obviously a parody of “Washing Post”
Happy to workshop

Why would anyone listen to the opinions of The Propaganda Post?

It looks like autocorrect changed “due to” to “despite” in the headline

Those rockets were disposable. The once noble goal of the various space barons was to create reusable ones. That is actually very hard.
Billionaires are fickle monsters, we shouldn’t be entrusting them with expanding our species to the cosmos anyway.
Fund NASA.

I hope it also moves under the force of all of these fuckers being dragged to The Hague.

We stop boycotting when they’re bankrupt and defunct. That’s the end date.

All of this has happened before.
All of it will happen again.

Could the franchise that is named after a felony be anti-cop? Absurd.

Really good point. I wouldn’t have picked that phrase. Shame we linguistically link female genitalia with weakness and male with strength
But it really gets under the skin of the shittiest people so it’s tempting. Any suggestions for cutting synonyms for coward that aren’t sexist? I’ve been looking

All bullies are cowards.
Doesn’t matter if it’s a playground or the Oval Office.

I should add: LLMs in particular, having almost exclusively been trained on data without author consent, are, in my view, unquestionably unethical because of that fact

AI is at the same time one of the most ethically complex technologies humanity has produced and the source of the most unhelpfully reductive debates about ethics in technology we’ve ever had

A long time ago, on Twitter, I saw someone accuse you of having “racist indicators in your search algorithm” when you shared a screenshot of a Google search
That was an early taste of the progressive cannibalism that is currently making resistance more difficult than it needs to be

We stopped regulating capitalism in the early 80s
With Citizens United we let capitalism directly influence government
This is the absurd result. Corporations are not people & money should’t buy power.
There are a lot of people convinced it’s good for them. 40 years of propaganda will do that.

It might also finally break us of this all-or-nothing, entrenched two-party system
Our political “center” has been distorted to the right for so long, look where it’s got us. Todays Dems are essentially a left and center-right coalition already. MAGA-GOP is nothing but extreme.
