Now I'm stress-eating moose munch.

Does someone have Gavin Newsom's number?

Yesssssss. He's found his stride. Finally!

If you feel that reality is discriminatory to your world view, that isn't the fault of reality. It doesn't matter how sincerely you hold your view. It doesn't give you a veto.

I'm glad I was a teenager in the 1990s. The current aesthetic for young men makes them look like a garden gnome who became radicalized while getting a haircut at a Turkish barber.

It's just not a good look.

Well, look at that.
ChatGPT appears to prefer Catholicism over Mormonism in terms of scholarly standards of historical authentication, coherence with established historical and archaeological knowledge, and philosophical depth.

Not to be a cheerleader for the LDS, but at least we know who translated the tablets and when. It's not like we know who wrote the gospels used as the basis for the Catholic faith.

Seems like an odd bias for it to have.

My working life is increasingly being spent in video calls in a sea of vocal fry.

Retirement beckons.

Looking forward to the funniest yard sale in human history.

Make a difference on climate change today. Email and call your Assemblymember and ask for their YES vote on SB 252, to divest California's public pensions from fossil fuel investments. Let’s win divestment of over $14 billion dollars in 2024.

There's a real danger in this unguarded use of fascism. Let's be clear here. What Fascism *actually* is is the ideology of blood and soil.

Does that sound like Trump, or does that sound like Biden?

J.D Vance refusing to deny that we currently live in a fascist state.

He'd *love* a fascist state. That fucker would be 1st in line for his armband.

@Alfred, with a view toward the second US presidential debate, how good is the wifi at Riker's Island?

"Convicted Felon" should be the words that immediately precede every utterance of the name "Donald Trump" by media outlets from this point forward.

I absolutely love the idea of shipping the batch training of AI models to data centers fed by renewables in order to mop up surplus capacity and generate revenue without requiring additional grid infrastructure. We could simply ship the valuable compute job to the location with the greatest momenary surplus of renewable capacity instead of shipping the electricity to a fixed datacenter fed by the grid. Much cheaper.

I had a feeling that some day, a combination of economic reality and nimbyism would sway even the most ardent climate deniers to oppose new fossil fuel investments. Seems like we're starting to see it here.
