Beyonce. Rihanna (reminds me of rhinitis). Dua Lipa. BTS.

I shit on modern music sounding all the same but I somehow (subconsciously) picked very different sounds.

It’s your sister’s laundry day?

I really want his to be the case but, to a laymen like me, the GOPs counterargument that he’s never been convicted of inciting insurrection is compelling. At least with the mental gymnastics SCOTUS and the GOP use. That’s why the special counsel’s and Georgia indictments are paramount, and why Trump’s team is fighting tooth and nail to delay them until after the election.

Only thing worse is wet sleeve tip.

Audacity aside, wtf is the difference between the $1.99 and 3.99 gold???

I could see either of these things happening:

• Musk pouts and (laughably) threatens to build a better Apple.
• Musk says he’ll buy Apple. Fails hilariously.

The original prompter of the trans women thread posted a chart purportedly showing that Grok was even more left-leaning than Chat GPT, which led Elon to say that while the chart “exaggerates” and that the tests aren’t accuarte, they are “taking immediate action to shift Grok closer to politically neutral.”

See this is the part of AI, like search engines and digital bubbles, that is actually terrifying. When an organic result is manipulated to fit and amplify a narrative without the users knowledge. Where your data comes from matters.

But if the food we eat is any sort of bellweather, most people won’t really care or will be so far removed from the source that we’ll be oblivious and just happy to consume.

A little foreplay might do it some good.

🤨 when did Reddit overtake Twitter? Reddit used to be a niche destination that you’d barely see it in comparison to the other big name sites.

This thread went longer and more serious than I could’ve imagined at the outset. Glad I stuck with it! Congrats on the mod role (maybe I’m late to notice?).

Sorry to hear about your daughter and income situation. Kids, and the parents that raise them that way, can be such di**s.

I picked up on that too but I thought it might just have been him trying to control his impulsive stupidity.

The interviewer tried really hard (and failed) to hide his incredulity.

OP: The hero we don’t deserve.

What do you mean? When I visit the web version, it just continually reloads and says I should try logging out.

If only I could get MS Teams to work in it 😭

Isn’t this this the plot of Silicon Valley?

I’m an idiot! (You’re an idiot!)

Now I’m curious what OF account he felt was worth spending campaign funding for.

True indeed. But Jon, as he has been for a number of other causes, may inadvertently be the catalyst that sparks action on this one.

Realistically, it’s probably a moot point. With all the money China pours into US industries, lawmakers don’t really have any leverage. But at least they balked!

Another continuing resolution. [insert Squidword “Feeling Daring Today” meme]
