If alarm bells are always ringing
They become benign as chimes
Then silence becomes the siren
For the dangers of our times.

I find myself wondering how many weeks we have left until most of the internet is just AI slop content and services that no longer work the way users need them to. Seems like we're heading that way pretty quickly.

Nah. Let them literally cook. This is how we strengthen the herd. The dumb and the weak shall be cleansed from the earth by God's own poultry conflagrations. As it was with the flood, the undeserving shall be cleansed while their families figure out if anywhere nearby is open for takeout.
There is a post circulating on Bluesky encouraging the moving of a frozen turkey straight into a pot of hot oil. We are combating this misinformation the best way we know how - through the power of dance music.

Someone somewhere is going to run this idea through ChatGPT so they can form an opinion and make an asinine argument about it.
I don't understand how anyone can watch how blatantly Grok is manipulated to answer the way ownership desires it to and then act like the other LLM chatbots couldn't possibly be similarly but less obviously compromised to produce responses in whatever way corporate interests and priorities dictate.

Hosting the husband's family for Thanksgiving for the first time. Phase 1 has begun with two pecan pies (one traditional one is a cream cheese layer experiment) and a pot of gumbo. Turkey is thawing in the fridge. A small army of spices have recieved their orders and will deploy in the coming days.

When do we start calling all of them pedophiles for the actual child molestation they participated in and/or covered up? You know, like how they still accuse innocent queer and trans people or anyone who is remotely an ally of being criminals for no reason at all.

Are all of them monsters? Yeah. All of them. Especially the ones who've had allegations, lawsuits, settlements, and mountains of evidence against them that they've been buying their way out of for years. None of this is shocking. All of it's disgusting.

Apologies to every other horror host ever, but Morgus is the GOAT. A straight up murdering psycho with a certain grotesque charm. He was the best.

Christian nationalists have a long history of excusing, elevating, and protecting pedophiles. What their leadership is upset about today is not the fact that it's obvious Trump committed heinous acts. They don't care about what he did. They're upset that people want consequences for those actions.

They used to build libraries and museums. Cathedrals and industries. The legacy of this generation will be horny racist bots and burnt out landscapes where rivers used to cool data centers. A field of rusting Teslas are the modern terra cotta army. An idiot prince with a ketamine crown at its center

People who are surprised at how vile and utterly stupid all these wealthy influential people come across in the Epstein emails haven't spent much time around people who "come from money". Most are vile and stupid. Some are smart and genuinely good-hearted, but those are extremely rare.

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

Releasing those files seems to be the only thing that scares him. I hope it keeps him up at night when his wilting brain recalls some cruel indignity he forced on a girl. Guilt stalks him in the dark hours he spends with his fear of knowing the consequences before his last breath.

Jesus. Fucking. Christ. Like he's looking for parking meter change in the goddamn couch, but it's millions of dollars for him to arbitrarily reward who he deems to be loyal that raid from some other pocket of taxpayer money. Which he probably won't do because it won't go to him and his buddies.
TRUMP: The ones who stayed, I'm sending them a $10,000 bonus
INGRAHAM: Where's that money coming from?
TRUMP: I don't know. I'll get it from someplace.
