Just found out that Jordan Peterson has a daughter, and she definitely looks like she'd be his daughter.

I can't explain it, it's like they both look like they drink homemade wheatgrass juice

Fucking hell.

AP article excerpt that states:
"Iraqi deaths were estimated in the hundreds of thousands, and nearly 5,000 U.S. troops were killed in the war after President George W. Bush’s administration falsely claimed that then-President Saddam Hussein was stockpiling weapons of mass destruction. "

Just saw a tiktok talking about how a lot of people are going to be Grandad from The Boondocks when it comes to retelling these historic events.

"Of course I was out there protesting for Gaza. I WAS ON THE BOAT WITH GRETA! I just didn't get any pictures".

Twitter suck. its horrible to interact with, but the horribleness is like the point?

I indulge in making fun of bigots and racists, but at the end of the day, I'm still interacting willfully with bigots and racists?

When I put it that way, yeah that sounds tiring.

Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want.
To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough,
, just so
other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it.
Gross.

And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

They overplayed their hand.

If there were just a few less self-serving sycophants this whole thing might've been shut down last year.

But no, that bike-riding, car-detailing jackass just had to get his turn.

Male ego is a fuck of a thing.

I picture Vance and Miller replaying the same 2 clips from Demolition Man, telling Trump it is modern day Nebraska.

"I spoke to the governor, she was very nice. But I said, 'Well wait a minute, am I watching things on television that are different from what's happening? My people tell me different.' They are literally attacking and there are fires all over the place...

Trump seems to back off Portland military plan: 'Am I watching things on television that are different from what's happening?'

President Trump had said he will send troops to Portland to protect U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities, which he said were "under attack."
