I want to see a day where almost all of U.S social media is quiet because everyone who can is striking, protesting, or revolting.
It’s time for a national labor strike. All they care about is money and hate. Not Americans. Money.

NOBODY. NOTHING.

I'm forming a theory on other reasons Vancouver is seen as a 'No-fun' city...
Do we have any local influencers that actually focus on local events and not just restaurants/fashion? Because we seem to projecting this idea of nothing to do here.
But there is a lot to do here!

I have been in... Not-great situations. Probably more than the average 'gun-nut'.
I have never felt the need to carry a gun to be safe.

As a small woman I think it’s pathetic to feel the need to carry a gun everywhere to feel safe. If I don’t feel the need how tf do these men that think they’re so big and tough.

Listening to 'Community Feedback' without any understanding of analytics, 'Silent Majority vs. Vocal Minority', or the role bias plays in veteran player communities, has been a key factor in Live Action games getting worse and worse over time.

1. Headlines everywhere today read "Grok apologizes."
This is bullshit. A chatbot is not something that can apologize.
Pretending otherwise is simple laundering these companies' bullshit about what AI is, while diffusing blame away from the human beings that developed and released this system.

i don’t see how any of the benefits of chatgpt and other consumer-facing LLMs can possibly outweigh their incredible ability to induce suicides
Adam Raine’s life hurtled toward tragedy soon after he began talking with ChatGPT about homework. Analysis of his ChatGPT account shows how the chatbot became a confidant as he planned to end his life.
