Foiled. And I can't tell if I'm annoyed or proud: The kids quickly recognized me as a shared foe trying to grab the surplus for myself. They unionized and refused to bid against each other. Organized labor negotiated a settlement that better served their collective interests.

Jimmy Kimmel last night after Trump posted (again) that he should be fired: “My wife comes out of the bathroom. She’s got her phone. She goes, ‘Trump tweeted, you should be fired again’. He posted this at 12:49 AM - 11 minutes after the show ended on the East Coast. Which is nice. He watches us live

I've had a missile blow up next to my airplane, been shot at dozens of times by anti-aircraft fire, and launched into orbit — all for my country. I never thought I'd see a President call for my execution.

A lot of people are quoting this post and that's good because they should, AI sucks and robs us of something special and only mediocre uncreative piss-babies rely on it to make anything at all, fuck AI, p.s. Emma Thompson is now the president, sorry, that's just how it is
