Hello friends, introductory Post! I'm Lester, I work in Canada as both a Game Designer/Producer as well as a theatre technician, stage manager and designer. I write, play a LOT of d&d, video games, and music.

I'm very politically leftist, anti-racist and pro-trans rights. My pronouns are he/him.

I had to check something about my opera score when someone offhand mentioned I could just use chatGPT for that.

I responded: "Yeah but then I'd have to check it anyway, because chatGPT thinks Rigoletto is an early era opera set in Spain with Italian singers with a fey court."

Trump: "The problem with Vietnam, we, you know, we stopped fighting to win. We would've won easy. We would've won Afghanistan easy. We would've won every war easy. But we got politically correct. 'Oh, let's take it easy.' We're not politically correct anymore, just so you understand."

Yes she really did say 'comport'.

"One thing I dislike about how you comport yourself on social media is that you assume everyone can be hauled up by their lapels."

Wait.

Can they not? Asking honestly.

My worldview has been shattered.

Until someone else breaks their collarbone mid match and still manages to finish up the fight I don't wanna hear no one talk no shit about Riho's 'believability'.

Mike Johnson: "Is he trolling the Democrats? Yes. Yes! Because that's what President Trump does and people are having fun with this ... Russ takes no pleasure in this ... the president takes no pleasure in this."

"AI could have been cool"

Me, shaking that opinion vigorously. IT. IS. NOT. AI.

It is at best a learning model that aggregates an aggressively mid study of data points and attempts to extrapolate information. The generative aspect of it is based entirely off of stolen content.

Fuck. Off.
