Amazing how Trump’s whole thing in the old days was to be this rich playboy who fucks sexy models and gets whatever he wants, only to give birth to the three ugliest sons on the planet

BREAKING: Look at this.

A new crypto account was opened yesterday morning.

30 minutes BEFORE Trump's announcement of 100% tariffs on China, it added a huge multi-million dollar levered Bitcoin short position, per YF.

Market dumped.

The trader made a profit of $192 million in two hours.

Unusual.

The whole internet loves Cola Bottle Nate, a lovely guy who almost kills himself eating Haribro cola bottles! *5 seconds later* We regret to inform you Mr. Rimmington is racist

Nathan Rimmington, 33, is a haulier and owner of an HGV driving school in Barnsley. Huge, tattooed, always sweating and always pining for a pint, he is portrayed in the series as an incorrigible joker: "If the government don't crack down on immigration, my kids will have to go to school on fucking camels."

This is definitely something I would do. Chemo makes it impossible to eat, but the one thing I can always reliably put away is candy

Well, my chemo nurse kinda gave me some perspective this week - nobody thought I’d still be around but she’s never seen anyone do so well with this treatment. I should have died a few times by now but I guess it’s just not quite time yet.

God chemo kicked my ass so hard this week. Not great timing since today is a 13 hour work day plus 2 hours of driving tacked on. I think I might die?

Just moving some data from one server to another. Simple stuff but it was still kinda neat to see it work.

Alex Jones has asked the Supreme Court to immediately put his almost $1.5 billion defamation judgment on hold, citing the imminent threat of InfoWars being handed over to The Onion.

If there isn't a stay, "InfoWars will have been acquired by its ideological nemesis and destroyed," the filing says.

I had a weird dream last night that I had to play guitar for Rascal Flatts, and they just threw me up onstage immediately without any rehearsal or even verifying that I know the songs (I don’t). Needless to say, it was a realllly stressful dream.

an unfortunate irony about this post - and even if you are the staunchest anti-ai critic out there, i think you'd agree - is that some of the most bigoted things are being said to respond to this. copy/pasting phrasing and terminology used by bigots but replacing "dna" with "bits" doesn't make it ok

i'm completely serious when i say that much of the dismissive ai discourse on here fires the bigotry neuron

if you're writing a sentence that sounds like eugenics but you go "oh that's fine to say because it's not a real person" (whatever that means) you may want to consider what made you okay with saying that
