anthropologists will struggle to explain how a nation-state arrived at a culture based entirely around cringe for generations.

I think about this a lot.

the same publications that publish "Are Chatbots Conscious? Do They Deserve Human Rights?" will have "Why the Homeless Need To Be Fed Into Woodchippers For the Economy" 3 pages later.

the same chuds that think AI is sentient deny the humanity of millions.

it's grotesque.

I could not believe that wasn't a shitpost before I clicked through

I cannot fathom how an adult with thoughts like that functions

I cannot imagine how many worms must be in one's brain to make them say "it's not the responsibility of politicians to give people a reason to vote for them, it's the responsibility of every person to vote for politicians by default."

your head must be dragging along the ground from all the weight.

senators when iran lights $300,000,000 of taxpayer money on fire in self-defense: "this is a very bad development!"

senators when any billionaire lights $300,000,000 of taxpayer money on fire: "ah well. would you like some more subsidies? we can defund some programs and agencies if you want."

how does this account have access to my internal monologue

Bsky devs: "our users are beyond stupid, we are the smartest people alive and nobody understands technology like us"

Also bsky devs: "I put my phone in the pool because it was hot"

PEPFAR, the program to stop hundreds of thousands of children and adults from dying of HIV/AIDS, was $6.5 billion a year.

found a post of him saying that his job is "chalk line: $0.50, knowing where to draw the line: $499,999.50" and I really wanted to reply that the only thing he knows how to do with chalk is eat it, but he is a coward and locked replies :(

No. There is no hope for us.

it's pretty wild that business majors manage to get degrees without understanding a single thing other than how to open the boxes of crayons that they eat.

the really funny thing about this is that it demonstrably does not work re: driving people into their ecosystem.

people with PCs already have a platform. a second platform was a hard sell 20 years ago when it was $200. now it's $800 and a monthly fee.

it just deprives them of a revenue stream.

A war that isn't a war, documented with videos that may or may not be real, funded by elected leaders who are neither for nor against it, is the most dystopian thing that's happened in my lifetime

I think the important context they are missing is that millions of people aren't going to buy their hardware and that 30% of $0 is $0 lol.

my favorite thing about that tweet was always that carrola is absolutely, 100% the type of guy to wear an expensive watch

bad

wish I was in a functional society that ate giant bugs and had sewers full of ash zombies tbh

changed my mind, sorry

don't worry, it's nothing we can't vote our way out of

very excited to see how the "NAFO" 🇺🇦🇪🇺 accounts process this lol

I did not think that outsourcing military decisions to people that cooked their brains on 4chan could possibly be this funny

This is what it would look like to fly over the Martian North Pole aboard @esa.int's Mars Express orbiter.
