please retire the phrase "i wish i had time to be depressed"
1) nobody has time to be depressed
2) depression doesn't care if you're busy
3) willing yourself to force through symptoms bc you have stuff to do is only effective for mild-medium depression, not severe
4) it's a shitty thing to say

one thing we know for a fact right now about LLMs/AI is that they don't understand anything - it's just a massive plinko machine behind the scenes, that's why when they keep feeding it hardware the understanding level remains at 0
so that's how far along they are towards AGI: 0%

This may explain why there’s an aggressive response to people who merely post Kirk’s own words. It threatens the existence of the alternate Kirk - the motivational speaker that had been marketed to young kids and white Christian groups through selective quotation & clips.

CW: Suicide
Folk say "If only they had reached out" or suggest that if you're feeling suicidal to reach out to family or friends or even strangers, but in my experience when I was low/suicidal the sheer ability to reach out was beyond me
May I suggest if someone is pulling back, check they are OK?

The thing about headlines like this is that
A) racists wouldn't care (or worse)
B) systemic racism requires more than a headline to explain
C) the same sort of brain which can accept "sea level rise isn't a big deal, people can just sell their property" will ask "why don't they just move?"

I think the left has already lost. The social contract has been ground into dust, shame and embarrassment no longer exist. The only power that remains is money, and all the money is on the right. The only tool against that is solidarity, which doesn't exist in the US.
