Omg same. I try to schedule hangs in advanced but keep a very big social circle, & I try to protect my “me time” so I don’t burn out (& also try to spend quality time w my fella)… but when I send similar messages to pals, I feel like such a self-important dillweed. But what’s the alternative? 🤷🏽‍♂️😖🥸

If you are confident that a boat near Venezuela is carrying drugs, you stop it and board it. That way, you have evidence.

If you don't really care if a boat near Venezuela is carrying drugs, but you just want to kill people, you blow the boat up. That way, the irrelevant evidence is gone.

A nationwide backlash to AI data centers is brewing.

And for good reason: while AI enriches Big Tech CEOs and props up the stock market, data centers are sucking up communities’ water and power.

When the AI bubble bursts, the rest of us will be stuck holding the bag. Be warned.
Completely disinterested in AI porn. With so many varieties of sexy men in real-life (and the absolute abundance of sexxxy pics online), why would you ever need to generate a generic AI pic that looks like hundreds of other actual men? 🙅🏾‍♂️🚫🤖
I did! Lots I’ve never heard of! I’ll definitely be checking some of them out this spooky season 👻🎃🎞️ cheers for making it!
Yeah I was conflicted bc w malignant bc like, she’s afraid of the murderer, who she thinks is another person but is literally her (albeit controlled by her conjoined twin). As for SWF, the obsessed roomie does dress us as an evil twin version of her, but yes… such an interesting theme 👯‍♀️
Lady doppelgängers (wasn’t sure if these were already on your list): Perfect Blue, Single White Female, Another Me, (and I’m not sure if this one would exactly count, but Malignant)

One thing today’s #NoKings rallies proved: tens of millions of Americans belong to Antifa
I’m unironically turned on by guys who are good at video games. It’s part of my 8-bit upbringing, gaming w friends 🤓🎮👾🧑🏻‍❤️‍💋‍🧑🏽
As a journalist, I “love” when outlets write articles like, “Congress members worry Trump MAY be breaking the law by doing X,” when ofc 100% of the time, HE’S OBVIOUSLY BREAKING THE LAW & JUST DGAF, & the journos are like, “Wow, it’s a big mystery! No one knows for sure!” 🤓🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏻‍♂️📰🇺🇸🔥 fucking worthless
Oh rad! One of the very few Black characters in the entire Legend of Zelda video game series appears as a fairy in the 2002 installment, “The Wind Waker.” 😲🧚🏾‍♀️✨
I totally judge people for their tattoos and other kinks, but I daren’t say it out loud bc #SexPositive but like, ummm… ewwww no 😜

I have a weird thing, that when I take a seat at a restaurant, bar or any room, I wanna sit in a seat that allows me to view the crowd and the door. Safety? Neurosis.
Whoa! The xylophone! Hurrah to Japanese punk ingenuity 🇯🇵🗾👺🎎
And it’s in English! 😺 not scary but definitely a stylish and modern take on the gay coded Wilde tale
Bring her back will eff you up. Barbarian is pretty good. The Italian version of Dorian Gray is neat. The remake of Nightmare on Elm Street has overt chomo vibes. Companion was fun…. Just a few ideas

So when I hear of students being encouraged to use GPT in college I don’t hear innovation. I hear cognitive atrophy, the inability to think critically for oneself, and total dependence on vulnerable centralized repositories of data for knowledge without ever understanding how knowledge is generated.

"We took freedom of speech away" should be in every campaign ad moving forward.
Trump: "We took the freedom of speech away because that's been through the courts and the courts said you have freedom of speech, but what has happened is when they burn a flag it agitates and irritates crowds."
If you’re wondering why I didn’t respond to your last email apologizing for ending our friendship after years of us not talking, it’s because I still love you very much and am worried about getting pulled back into your maelstrom. 🌊⛈️☔️
