This is so good.
My God, this is the best poem I've read in months. "When My Daughter Tells Me I was Never Punk," by Jessica Walsh. (Sorry the alt text doesn't go all the way to the end, but you can find the poem online.)

We do things not because they’re easy but because we’re irrationally afraid someone will yell at us if we don’t.

In RFK’s defense it’s a lot better to have a dead worm in your brain than a live one. I know this because I am an expert in Animorphs

People don’t seem to understand that the “moderate” position was Roe. Roe was a COMPROMISE. They nuked the moderate result. We should not be trying to get back to Roe. We should be pushing for no government interference in medical decisions, for abortion and trans, in tandem. It’s the same fight.

My now ex partner is obsessed with Multiamory and this explains why he expected me to do an exit interview after he dumped me.

Few things make me more upset than finding out the lies someone else has been telling about me, even (especially?) if it’s to cover their own ass.

I need to read something else now because reality is just not for me at the moment but I sure don’t know what you’re supposed to follow this with.
Just finished Those Beyond the Wall and this book, y’all, this book will eat your soul for lunch.

It is so good and so hard and should be required reading for everyone going forward.

I got dumped via Reddit earlier this week after I found out my long time partner had been lying to me about a relationship with another person and instead of having a conversation with me about it he decided to let Reddit decide I guess? Anyway def one of the weirdest experiences of my life.

Or I guess non local if you happen to be visiting.
Any local friends want to stay in my house with my cat for days/weeks at a time? He is a grumpy old man but he will sleep on your lap.

I cannot say it enough: it is not a search engine, it is a guessing engine with a people pleasing problem. Please don’t believe anything you get from an LLM or “AI”, they are not at all built for it!
I don’t think it can be emphasized enough that large language models were never intended to do math or know facts; literally all they do is attempt to sound like the text they’re given, which may or may not include math or facts. They don’t do logic or fact checking — they’re just not built for that
Unfortunately, it repeatedly offers incorrect answers for straightforward math questions. 🧪
