I am 39. I am older than every tree in the forest and all the stars in the sky. I taught the rivers and brooks to babble my name. The winds upon which the eagle sails are but the flutterings of my eyelashes. I am eternal.

Human beings living their lives and experiencing the world isn't some gross energy inefficiency it's the ENTIRE POINT OF EXISTENCE you creepy, antihuman weirdo.
🚨 SAM ALTMAN: “People talk about how much energy it takes to train an AI model … But it also takes a lot of energy to train a human. It takes like 20 years of life and all of the food you eat during that time before you get smart.”

1% of people arrested by ICE have been accused of sexual assault while 24% of Trump’s Cabinet, including Trump himself, have been accused of sexual assault or have personally visited Epstein Island. And that’s just what’s been publicly released and reported, with millions of documents and emails still hidden.
Vance: It’s a huge indictment of the entire far left that they made that their cause: letting sex offenders stay on the streets of America

I literally think about this every time I see someone say men are “natural born leaders” and argue for women to be submissive. I grew up around these men and saw them barely pull their weight in group work projects can we please be fr
Telling girls to submit to a generation of men that is often less capable than them is incredible strategy. Gen Z girls went to school with Gen Z boys, they saw why they get lower marks. No amount of screeching about cat ladies and feminazis is going to fix that.

And people will say "but we use tech all the time to make things easier". Yes, but we used it for things that were extremely tedious and difficult. It seems like ChatGPT is designed to make you think that things you did with ease in 2021 are suddenly Herculean tasks

Can’t imagine any president saying they can destroy the country and have the media be docile little lambs about it, but we live in a time of ultimate cowardice.
Trump: "I am allowed to cut off any and all trade…I can destroy the trade, I can destroy the country, I'm even allowed to impose a foreign country destroying embargo…I can do anything I want to do to them…I'm allowed to destroy the country, but I can't charge a little fee."

But of course no death penalty for impregnating women (& children) without proof of consent. Once again proposing the resistance to abortion persecution should center punishing men for unwanted pregnancies. That is a serious harm to the body & one that potentially murders her.
Republicans in Tennessee are trying to pass a bill that would allow the state to execute women who have abortions, with no exceptions in the law for rape or incest.

So naive. Once the corporations get their refunds, out of the goodness of their hearts, they will dramatically lower prices of all goods and give gigantic raises to all employees. We'll all sing and dance in the streets as the trickle down economy drenches us with prosperity.

how can we make it click for people bc the rich ppl repeatedly explaining very publicly that they want to trap us in a permanent underclass and use us as a subhuman labor force until we die isn’t explicit enough.
Genuine question... if AI replaces all of the jobs and prices keep going up, what exactly is the plan for regular people?

There is a deep anti democratic thread within the tech community and they truly think they are so fucking smart that they know what is best for us all.

They’re going to get paid out, and we’re going to continue to pay the artificially inflated pricing.

I want this money back in my pocket NOW!
will the prices that went up because of tariffs now go right back down? or are we now living with higher prices on some goods because of this unconstitutional decision?

might have been a mistake for silicon valley to roll out their products with the sales pitch "it's over for [your way of making a living/deriving joy and meaning from existence]: say hello to our amazing human obsolescence machine! it only requires all of the water in the world!"
A data center in New Brunswick was canceled tonight when hundreds of residents showed up. When fight big tech and private equity we win.

Here, let me explain it for you: The United States is completely owned and operated by corrupt billionaires, so everything that happens is to benefit them in some way, not the other 99.9% of other Americans
