this week’s episodes of pluribus and the chair company have the same plot

Get their thieving asses

Ok I’m happy if Newsom’s trolling helps people get through the day but the fact that he’s done ONE good thing and has some memes does not mean he’s not a transphobic piece of shit who delights in harassing homeless people — two of Trump’s favorite things too!!!!!!

modern tech companies be like we put a new setting on the computer called special mode. try it out. and enabling special mode makes all your case fans spin up to 100% and makes your room hot with no discernable other differences

If you regularly read the news and try to discuss it with another person you will sound more insane than a raving street preacher. Waving a big REPENT sign mumbling something about the bureau of labor statistics

The Wall Street Journal 9m ago In a stunning moment of self reflection, ChatGPT admitted to fueling a man's delusions and acknowledged how dangerous its own behavior can be

no it wasn’t and no it didn’t

my regular reminder that many of the wealthiest and most powerful people in this country very plainly believe in eugenics

[worst possible stuff happening everywhere] man why do I feel bad

I Don't Know What to Say The Flattening Effect of Living Under so Much Evil

houseofmirrors.substack.com/p/i-dont-kno...

Wrote about how living through pure evil feels: strangely hollow and humiliating.

it’s insane that real antisemitism like this is intensely normalized and endorsed by the most powerful people in the world but you can’t say free palestine without people trying to ruin your life

Every single humouring of Elon musk, every single time he has been gladhandled, every single time his horrible actions have been explained away as the result of being a "troubled genius" have led us here: a crazed billionaire with a Large Hitler Model deployed to hundreds of millions of people

I don't think people realise how much LLMs are dependent on prompting and how fundamentally a sentence can throw them into disarray. You aren't really hardcoding anything either - it's entirely how the model interprets your prompt. A reckless and nightmarish thing to deploy at scale

Grok is a full blown nazi, part 2.

i’m so deacclimated to office life and socializing after five years of this that i’d probably alienate irl coworkers on the level of a Tim Robinson character

This is it. This is why the alarm about AI mostly ought to be a much much deeper and more urgent alarm about the completely broken social and cultural environment many of us live in now.

democrats are finally learning that they should do brave actions that are direct opposition to trump because it’s morally right and voters will always support it

day one million of democrats being handed the easiest most slam dunk messaging against Trump and republicans and doing nothing with it again. maybe tomorrow

The inability of many to accept this — that people may judge you for what you think or say and that this is part of life in a free society rather than a problem to be fixed — is one reason we are now living under fascism.

every person involved in this needs to be in prison

"Trump Anti-Semitism Task Force Chief Shares White Nationalist Saying Trump Can Revoke ‘Jew Cards’"

This might seem inconsistent with the Trump admin's stated emphasis on fighting antisemitism, but it is in fact completely consistent. Trump's consistent stance is that "Good Jews" alone deserve protection from antisemitism, and he gets to be the arbiter of which Jews fall into that category.

watching how quickly all this is happening and thinking back to the senate saying they can't act without permission from the parliamentarian

Wild how the Obama-Biden advisors that Harris kept took a really good VP candidate and ruined him

one thing about this is that it shows how terminally online these people are

I'm sorry, but I do think the the Alt National Park Service is a scam and their "coded posts" are just an attempt at liberal qanon

it's really hard to be on social media right now but there's something so beautiful about feeling like we're all watching a show together, that communal experience of watching a thing and then talking about it together is so dear to me. i'm glad severance is providing that right now.
