It probably goes without saying, but just in case: they don’t attack iran like this unless they know there *aren’t* nukes.

I think there is a much simpler and better case to be made that humans aren't sentient than there is for LLMs being sentient.

β€œIf this guy isn’t impeached and removed, what’s the point to the whole Constitution? You can’t have a fucking criminal running the government for his own benefit screwing the people. And that’s what we have.”

If this country was truly β€œpro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about β€œlife.”

It’s about control.

Newest commission. The request was for drawing Superman and Lois Lane together. The situation was left up to me. 😁

I miss when you could post Brave Norman Rockwell Townsperson and the caption could be, like, β€œR.E.M was wrong to leave β€˜Fretless’ off of Out of Time” instead of β€œThe secret police should stop murdering people.”

Amazon Prime is the best place to do your research. So... much... trashy cinema...

People won't like hearing this, but, asian low budget trash cinema is better made technically than american low budget trash cinema (like Asylum types of movies). The level of craft and technical artistry is much higher.

No. Commonsense reform is to burn ICE to the waterline and scatter the rubble so that all of us who value a constitutional republic with a Bill of Rights can prevent such a monstrosity from ever being constructed again.
And nothing above is hyperbole.

God, but you are not a leader for this time.

Isn't it weird and a little dissonant to watch new movies coming out that portray a competent POTUS or other political leaders that aren't craven sycophants?

Catherine O'Hara: The Grande Dame of Off-Center Comedy Comedy writer Merrill Markoe remembers Catherine O'Hara and the impact of her career from 'SCTV' to Christopher Guest movies and beyond.

I wrote a piece...i believe they call it "an appreciation"... about one of my comedy heroes: Ms.Catherine O'Hara.

Not to get political, but America is very pretty and has a lot of nice folks making cool things, and I think if we had a president who wasn’t actively trying to murder us, we could have a pretty good time

RFK Jr. Demonstrates How To Remove Tapeworm By Scooting Ass Across Carpet WASHINGTONβ€”In an address touting the practice as a completely drug-free method to relieve the common affliction, Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. demonstrated Thursday how ...

β€œDoctors won’t tell you this, but you don’t need medication for a tapewormβ€”all you need is the natural power of friction,” Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said as he dropped to the floor, lifted his legs high, and dragged his ass along the White House carpet during a press conference.

I have had a crush on Catherine O'Hara since I first stumbled on first-run eps of Second City Television as a teen. This makes me sad. The top 10 list of people I think would be exactly as I imagine them in real life is very small, and she is one of them.

One of the best actors of her generation. Easily one of the best comedians of all time. As much Catherine O’Hara as we got, it was nowhere near enough.

We are going to all have to go to the streets to stop this. I don’t know exactly how it will work. I am almost 70 years old and not very athletic and would not do well in jail. But I fear there is no other choice.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

"Prepared"? That doesn't sound very committed.
