louder than god's revolver

It's a myth that banning a book increases that book's readership. For most books, banning has the chilling effect the censors want. Your favorite banned books need to you be loud for them!

the Stripping The Copper Out of the Walls Act has passed. Selling America's future for even more tax cuts for the wealthy that they're too rich to even notice

they just passed a bill that allocates tens of billions of dollars to building concentration camps but don’t worry, the president wants you to know that waffle house is dropping its fifty cent egg surcharge.

just found out that allogator alcatraz isn’t just a stupid name but that they’re actually putting alligators around the concentration camp so if people try to escape they’ll get eaten alive by alligators. genuinely deeply evil shit

From a distance you can see a mountain landscape with a blue sky and a few hazy clouds. on the sides of the picture you can see parts of trees. On the left in light green, on the right a smaller dark green tree further away. in the center is a black box on which is written in white “Only caring about your own right is exactly how you lose them”.

reply below the post says "we are in a police state" and this is absolutely true. don't be an idiot and qualify this ("a police state if you're _____"). no. you live in a police state if you're in the US. read about police states and listen to radicals on the subject

A customer told me she couldn't believe this store would put up a Pride display, because what if children see it??

Anyway, it was my display, and I'm proud of it, and you (and your children) should all see it. #BookSky 📚💙

An illustration of a bunch of catfish and koi swimming in greenish murky waters. The bright orange red of the koi contrasts the darker purplish tone of the catfish, their thrashing creates ripples on the surface of the water and the sun scatters bright spotted highlights across the pond.

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.
