My cat 'Pax' (Latin for peace). He adopted me about 8 years ago. Best companion you could ever ask for and the smartest cat I've ever owned.

I don't think it's in anyway a coincidence that Linda Yaccarino announced her resignation as Twitter's CEO the day after the Grok AI system was posting replies to people about raping her.

She spent two years defending the very worst of Twitter and Muskrat.
The leopards finally ate her face.

I did not have "Twitter CEO Linda Yaccarino quits after Grok (Twitter's AI) threatens to rape her." anywhere on my bingo card. We are in absurdist free-fall.

If the Russia-Ukraine war (oops.. I mean the 'special military operation') continues for another 65 days it will have gone on longer than World War One.

That blew up more spectacularly than a starlink launch.

Personal opinion: Musk thinks so little of empathy because he possesses none himself.

Trump says Ukraine started the war with Russia. In other news, we have always been at war with Eurasia.

Checking my bank account every day for a deposit from the government since I've been hearing about all the money they've been saving lately. Nothing yet but it's probably coming soon

Ya know if you aren't making noise about the Japanese killing whales, STFU about windfarms supposedly killing them. You aren't environmentally conscious, you're just cynically trying to leverage an environmental concern for your own agenda. We see right through you - and it's pathetic.
