imagine how much great art could have been created if we took a fraction of the money spent on getting computers to make shitty art and gave it to actual artists

Is *everybody* of consequence on AI's various payrolls? Or are they just naturally stupid? (I realize that these are not mutually exclusive potentialities.)

Same. I tried looking for a human person's Insta, mistakenly searched AI, then got DMed every goddamn thing it could scrape of the net. I feel dirty knowing I personally keep a coal plant online for an extra day.

The New York Times hasn't published a "Will Biden Resign?" piece on the last hour. Should we check and make sure they're okay?

Organizers got enough signatures to put a measure protecting abortion on the ballot in Arkansas. In *Arkansas*. They had *no national support*. Ignore the pundits melting down over not being treated as Very Special Boys. Dobbs has fundamentally changed elections. Everything they know is wrong.

I have no idea the best path re Biden but I do know a solid week straight of “Biden Old” and “Rich Dems Worried” above-the-fold stories are *obscene* in the face of SCOTUS using the Constitution to wipe their asses purely in the service of reinstating a felon rapist as president. Crazy-making shit.

I just wish there had been some mathematical method of calculating Biden's age before last week. Then we wouldn't have been blindsided this way!

The largely silent ad, which will reportedly air in battleground states across the country, features a sequence of headshots depicting politicians, former Trump White House officials, journalists, and seemingly random average Americans with big red X’s over their faces.

I think the actual sticking point is that, because he made the payment while in the White House, the jury should not have been allowed to consider the payment in their deliberations. (Your question about how anyone can seriously entertain this bullshit is still valid.)

I don't know who needs to hear this right now, but: Please don't waste time picking fights w/ people who basically agree with you, and just differ on semantics. If today has reminded us of anything, it's that democracy is at stake. One side wants to end it. One side doesn't.
