2 million is 1/1000th of 2 billion, aka .1%, so @averytiredfox.bsky.social is correct. 1 in every 10,000 posts is one of KTPs.

If you don't build a shrine to Gavin Newsom, pray to him every day, personally throw three trans people under his campaign bus, and vote for him in every possible election you can (including ones he isn't running in) then you are literally Adon Trumpler the clone of both Hitler and Trump.

I've never risen above my country's second lowest decile in annual income, I was keenly aware of how close we were to homelessness by the time I was just entering my teenage years and I don't know if I'll ever own a home. When these rich fucks talk about how cancelled they are I see a vivid red.

There's gonna be a bunch of people out there trying to use today to re-litigate the events that this is an anniversary of to desperately grasp onto the last vestiges of any moral authority they have remaining, but I don't want them to bother you! Today is your day, I hope you get to celebrate it!

Ugh, I hate that feeling. It sucks because in many ways it's the same as saying 'if only I knew those lottery numbers yesterday!', but it never feels that way. Even as these stocks begin climbing, it's always true that they could crater at any time, you never know who is gonna be the bagholder.

Apollo the gift of prophesy etc.

Not that it was exactly a stunningly difficult prediction, perhaps a little more improbable then the sun rising tomorrow?

Also love to accuse someone else of sexism 5 words before stating that a woman's opinions aren't valid unless they agree with mine.

I *still see people litigating the 2016 primaries*. Not as much as I used to, but not that infrequently!

Of all the politicians to make your online personality, Hillary Clinton is perhaps the oddest choice that I've still seen repeatedly made. I mean sure, she would have been better then Trump, but like I see the draw with Bernie, AOC, even Newsom even though he sucks, but Hillary? Really?

I was expecting a Khajit comparison. So many anthropomorphic cat races out there, people seem to be really into them!

Also I was looking for a pic of the Kilrathi and found some incredibly cursed AI stuff but also this guy. He looks disappointed in me specifically somehow.

Hmm, a compelling thought, though how could you see Ron Perlman there and not also include his incredible flowing locks?

Album cover is clearly one of the Hacan from Twilight Imperium.

John Fogerty clearly a huge TI nerd (and also a time traveler).

Makes sense, I've never seen food that's fussy about who it goes inside.

What are the exceptions though?

as incredibly sycophantic as an LLM to finally have a "working relationship", what does that say about you?'.

All in all whenever someone like that blows up on the social medias I just check right the hell out, it's both pathetically sad and sadly pathetic.

Watching people talk about LLM companions just gives me the most awful feeling of both intense cringe and deep sadness. There's part of me that wants to be generous and think these people just really struggle with human interaction for relatable reasons but I can never move past 'you need something

implementation of an LLM into a piece of software vs machine learning vs just a regular old algorithm that's been around for ages - all these things are now "AI". This has to be the most insane wave of honestly pretty much entirely top-down tech hype I've seen in my life time.

Dead on the hill with you, Zoe, but I think it's a really important point - people are still deluded into thinking these things are sentient when they are just text prediction software! And so many things get labelled as AI these days and it's so fucking frustrating. I don't know what's some hack

I'm gonna bet that it's gonna happen like 2 days after someone even bigger kicks it and the site will be in open revolt for all the celebration going on then. I just think it'd be funny if the last thing that happened to JP would be dying in someone else's shadow.

To this end I think one's enjoyment of either is a lot more binary, just as if you do not get enjoy arousal you will not enjoy any pornography, you will not enjoy any horror if you don't like the sensation of coursing adrenaline.

I once saw a comparison between horror and pornography, in that they were both the out groups of film in that they were both made to invoke a (admittedly very different) biological response in someone more then anything else, so things like 'plot' can thus fall by the wayside.
