Top US Army general says he’s using ChatGPT to help make key command decisions

dawg we are gonna lose a war because ChatGPT has this guy mobilizing divisions that don't exist and tasking real troops with holding mountain passes and ports an LLM hallucinated

Rocking the boat is worse than putting a hole in it.

The civility problem, the "these people are always causing problems" issue, the "meangirls" issue. It's coming from inside the house. You're making villains of the people who dare to challenge you for putting holes in the boat.

you're the asshole for saying something, because you are the one who escalated it beyond "just a joke."

And this goes for anything. Legitimately, it's the same for the stupid powerscaling debate as it is for the life and death of trans people or migrants or palestinians.

offending piece and makes you, the offended party, wrong for escalating.

The ironic detachment makes this even worse, where they'll separate from the thing they said even. "It's just a joke" that I say all the time, and I know is offensive, but no one else was wiling to challenge me on it, and now

If a stranger on the internet and I, who share a space regularly and can't simply ignore one another forever, have a disagreement, it always becomes a fight. Not because I or they are deranged, but because the pressure of online spaces to be "civil" creates an easy out. It lets them say the

Everyone is always "ironically detached" or too willing to just move on to actually be challenged on anything.

If my wife says something I disagree with, I can calmly and cleanly explain that disagreement, and we'll start a dialogue that usually ends with both of us understanding one another.

Something that I don't think people realize about online interactions is that it's generally required to say something that pierces a stranger's ego to get them to listen to you at all.

Seriously, try telling someone who has an objectively wrong opinion about a thing that they are in fact, wrong.

all of the expressions in that piece were peak.

Remember: the banks were cool with working with this guy but Heaven forbid you draw a sexy cartoon.

I've always loved Lilith's normal design with the cute short hair, but something about the way you draw her with long hair works so well. I love it.

parasites gleefully leave in their wake, tell me that the child living on that blood money derserves even an ounce of my sympathy again.

I can't spare the emotional bandwidth to hold this tiny violent act up as important or horrible when we live in the world plagued by the violence these pieces of human filth advocate for on a daily basis.

You wanna understand why people react so harshly to this shit? Look at the bodies these

sit there and try to explain to me how I should feel like your emotions are important overall. How I should be feeling the same things you are. Because I don't. I can't spare the emotional bandwidth to care about what the child of a fascist feels as he watches his father reap what he's sewn.

Learn how to process certain emotions in private, or with a specifically handpicked and receptive audience. Having feelings, thinking about how horrifying it must be to have been there to watch your parent die, or even just some random talking head but you were right there, that's fine. But don't

I have a very difficult time when people make their inability to shut out the part of their brain that puts themselves in someone else's shoes try to justify their horror at people who don't show compassion for a fascist who has sought my death... I don't care if you're on my side 99% of the time.

Why does this say remained, rather than remains?

Imagine a world without the threats of violence people like Kirk advocate for on a massive scale. This is why I barely use this fucking website anymore. You have no principles, and you bring harm to the marginalized on your platform by your unwillingness to condemn the actual violence of Kirk's ilk.

cuckold politics

Bree's post doesn't actually contravene any of that.

You can't threaten someone who's already dead. You can't incite a dead person to self-harm. And you can't say it was wishing death on someone who's already dead. So what about that post warranted suspension, going by the Community Guidelines?

Three more kids shot in school today. That is the tragedy and the only shooting politicians should be commenting on.

Liberal politicians if you are so disturbed just pretend Charlie Kirk was a Palestinian child and you’ll get over it in no time

Nah, the season 2 episode where the frat has a demon snake god they sacrifice girls to. But y'know, Xander being upset about the guys in Buffy's life is such a recurring theme that I get it.

The worst part is that the villain of this could be a literal criticism of Joss, but he's too busy also being Xander who is the only character objecting to this, for all the wrong reasons. Like, Jesus Christ, imagine the lack of self awareness.

Hi, I'm Joss Whedon, what if I had an episode of my hit show about a teenage girl superhero where both she, and the recurring mean girl character get picked up by college seniors and no one acts like that's weird at all?

a girl with red hair is standing in front of a bouquet of white flowers Alt: Fran, or, Frankenstein's Monster from Fate Apocrypha. She is a cute girl with red hair. Her neck bolts are instead coming out around where ears might be, and are gold. She also has a unicorn horn made of the same material. She appeara to wear the headdress of a nun, where the white band has lacy detailing. She is sniffing flowers. In the anime ahe is quiet, lonely, and despite being a tiny cute girl in a dress packs huge power into her giant hammer attacks.

And the silly twitter fash arguing that "culturally we understand that the electric zombie is the monster" can't tell me that their weeb asses don't know the cutest Frankenstein's monster ever, from Fate/Apocrypha.

As a member of american western culture, I cannot think of a single time Frankenstein's monster was directly referenced and actively evil. Every cartoon makes him a nice guy, and makes Dr. Frankenstein a mad scientist. Sure, the monster still wrecks stuff, but so does the hulk.

cw: suicide

i tried to end my life 4 times as a teen & not once could i have had my mom speak for me because i was afraid of what would happen if *anyone* knew “i’m actually a girl & people keep assaulting me.” someone else in my family would’ve sent me to boot camp.
