Sorry to get radical but I don’t think it’s my job or yours to embrace, accept, understand - and certainly not to use - the thing being sold to us as AI. I don’t like any part of it, so I won’t. I’m missing out? Good, that’s what I want. You’re worried about me missing out? That’s fuckin weird, man.

A Turkish Member of Parliament says the DOJ’s Epstein file release shows young girls from Turkey were taken to one of the network’s islands— unable to speak English, isolated, vulnerable and repeatedly sexually abused.
He called it “a terrible crime against humanity.”

Still waiting for the 2026 Democratic Party to be where the 2017 "In This House We Believe" yard signs were.
A reminder that this famous photo was taken in 2014, during Obama's presidency.
