I served but didn’t retire. VA loans and parking spots and 10% discount at Lowe’s (on some things, now) are the only things I get for my service—besides the memories. I get seriously annoyed when someone takes my spot.

ChatGPT, read the attached article and summarize any mental defects or diagnoses author displays symptoms of.


I’d take it all to the casino and bet it all on one game. Walk out ten minutes later with 100k or the nothing I’d have at the end of the day anyway.


Not because of emails. And a lot of things prevent the release of actual photos or videos except super redacted. For good reasons, but still it would take witnessing him actually raping someone for them to do anything. And even then you’re not going to get everyone.
“Sounds like she’s enjoying it.”
“He didn’t hit her that hard, that was just a love tap.”
And of course, “any man would ‘give in’ surrounded by beautiful women all the time,” but only from a woman, because no guy is going to sign his name to saying there’s a certain number of women at which point he’s helpless but to rape a few.


Your money isn’t going into any wageslave pockets.


Never. Ever.


They are shocked just like Mike Johnson is at week old news.


He wasn’t even supposed to be there that day.



Boolean Algebra is one of the few things I learned in electronics that I still apply in programming all the time.


Wolfers, a frequent economic commentator, said Trump’s statements reflect something more troubling than a bad policy take. “I don’t understand the logic of looking us in the eye and telling us an outright falsehood,” he said.



Trump is a singular idiot, and because he only speaks at about a 3rd grade level, he has been able to politically activate a part of the population that was disinterested in politics because it was above their head.
If you look at voting patterns, there are an astounding number of voters who go to the polls to vote for Trump and leave the booth without voting for anyone else. In Michigan there were hundreds of thousands of fewer votes for Supreme Court justices than for Trump. Because those races are nominally non-partisan, they had no idea who to vote for. The liberal candidates both won handily while Trump took the state. Midterms have gone against Republicans and I think it’s because Trump isn’t on the ballot.
I think if we can get Trump out of office, there is a good chance America will return to normalcy, albeit with a greater awareness of the current of fascism that bubbles before the surface.


It’s perfectly fine to like something that isn’t art. Hell, it’s perfectly fine to have a definition of art that can include AI, that’s just a framing for talking about the things AI does well vs. the things it doesn’t. I find that where a human can mix different things together in a way that enriches the whole, AI mixes things together in contradictory ways because it lacks human experience. It’s why, AI pictures usually come out flat and lifeless or includes nonsense details that don’t fit or includes requested details in incongruous ways.
That said, I only know about Hatsuni Miku through my kids. I don’t really know anything about that specifically.


He has such self-awareness of guilt that no one even knows what the fuck he’s talking about, but he’s sure people would be pissed if they knew.


I like to split it into the art and the craft. AI can execute the craft of drawing or creating music or lyrics, but only a human can exercise and elevate a medium to something that really speaks to people on anything more than a superficial level.


Last thing I want is to have the person guiding my flight to have gotten the job based on how hard they salute the flag. (Which is really just a way of saying kissing Trump’s ass.)
If they are as effective as all the true patriots he’s put in charge of the FBI, HSA, DOJ, etc. air travel is doomed.


The end result of this is everyone buys homes and cars in cash or they just invent something that is interest without calling it interest. They have that for certain religions who have a faith-based objection to interest. It seems dumb to me, but apparently structuring it with the interest rolled into the principal and called something else makes god happy.


Narrator: They aren’t.


Ironically, Republicans having complete control might just change peoples’ individual politics for the better. That could make a big difference. If we survive that long as a democracy.
If you are starting from a place of zero knowledge about investing, invest in a S&P 500 indexed mutual fund with the minimum “load” (percentage taken by the platform/company you invest through).
That will never be the wrong move, though other strategies might perform better in some cases.
Starting your own business is fraught. Investing in real estate is a completely different beast and I can’t offer anything there.
Does that potentially criminally implicate her if she finds stuff she might be required to report but doesn’t?
