Here's my idea! You know in New Vegas, the Big M/T and the village where the doctors lived? Create that in some defunct K Mart and have all the bullshit AI developers live therein and develop their systems. Being as that they have to live within that environment, I bet it would be consequential!

Its such a good day when I don't get any responses from adult children screaming about something that happened within their fandom and which surprises no one because it just keeps happening or reading a shit take from a 14 year old 40 year old. Oh right, I turned all those fuckers off! 🖕

We don’t need a 28-point “peace plan” to end the war.
We need a one-point plan:
1. Putin gets the fuck out of Ukraine.

Increasingly, I can see that no matter that a coherent comment is being made, it just gets ignored. It was said before that you can present facts and but someone is truly absorbed within a sense of fanaticism, nothing will deter them. I think this has become more just the par of discussion.

Some folks dealing with long COVID are applying nicotine patches to their skin even though they're not trying to quit smoking.

How this came about is a really interesting and bizarre story.

The richest man in the world and the biggest loser in the world are the same person. Makes me wonder how many of the other billionaires who are shitting all over the planet are equally stupid and cringey.

It's lunacy that these fools have been allowed to seize so much influence.

Love her in happy hours, when joys are won, And love her in her time of stormy weather.
