You know that phrase "common sense" right? Well, it's actually not 'common'. Don't ever assume that what YOU take for "common sense" is what OTHERS in your diverse group will understand as the same thing. Word to the wise: Just don't. #Advice #CommonSense #CommonSenseAdvice

I would re-frame the point slightly: AI=humans consuming the output of powerful tools without wisdom, discipline, or critical thinking. I wouldn't call it natural stupidity because that is condescending as fuck.

Why do his eyes have those giant bags under them? I thought those giant under eye bags were for people who drink too much, smoke too much weed, have terrible allergies or sinus conditions. Oh wait! Look at the swelling on the side of his nose, parallel to his nose. Is that a sinus thing? #WTF #Trump

"There is a massive cover-up, because the person who planted those pipe bombs - they don't want you to know who it was because it's either a connected anti-Trump insider or this was an inside job. Those bombs were planted there. This was a setup. I have 0 doubt." 🀣 - Dan Bongino Dep FBI Dir 11/24
