I've seen people say that getting attached to ChatGPT is like "believing the stripper really loves you", but that's not true. It's more like believing that the dryer personally composed that little jingle on a lonely sockless night just to win your affections.

Meanwhile back in the real world... I'm up in Kitsumkalum First Nation tomorrow - the furthest north I've ever been to in Canada. While everyone's been losing their minds about Cowichan getting 5km's of landback, Kitsumkalum just got 500km.

This is a bold but absolutely feasible solution, which would immediately bring Pu to the negotiation table in earnest, ready to make real concessions rather than aiming to swindle and take away Ukrainian sovereignty diplomatically. Europe needs to step up before it's too late.
Former NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen has called for Europe to deploy up to 20,000 troops behind Ukraine’s front lines, establish an air shield with around 150 combat aircraft and unlock frozen Russian assets.

Everyone knows data centers use a ton of water.

What hardly anyone knows: they can poison the water that remains.

And in eastern Oregon, Amazon is doing exactly that.

This is the antithesis of "nation-building."

Spoke to @melodyschreiber.com about the only story that matters re Olivia Nuzzi--her role in elevating RFK Jr, a man who is doing and will do so much harm to global health, even for decades after he leaves this position.
I don't care about her hikes in the desert, her exile or her terrible prose.
Olivia Nuzzi wrote an entire story based on unnamed sources about Biden's decline, reinvigorating calls for him to leave the race -- and the whole time, she was working on RFK Jr.'s behalf, according to her ex-fiance. newrepublic.com/article/2035...
Olivia Nuzzi’s Real Victims
More than her fiancé, or fellow female journalists, the public will pay the price for these misdeeds. RFK Jr. will see to that.

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

Transgender care saves lives.
Study In The Journal Of Pediatrics Finds Trans Youth Care Lowers Suicidality, Few Detransition
