🙄 Are you creating paranoid scenarios with AI lately? Genuinely curious.

I've been reading the Walmart Effect. I higjhy recommend it. The book is 20 years old, but it nonetheless explains how Walmart became the behemoth it is today, and how it has influence American businesses. Walmart is similar to Trump in a way; not necessarily the source of systemic issues but prime indicators of them. Hyper-consumerist car-dependent suburban culture did not start with them, but it is exacerbated by Trump and Walmart.

What did you have for dinner? NOT a discussion thread.

Chicken biryani, of course. -
Stephen Miller is nowhere near made fun of enough. He looks like a penis, and he hides behind bullshit manliness, so I think he should be called PP Milly. It's juvenile shit like this that really gets under someone like his skin.

What Are You Thinking About Right Now?

My attitude lately has been "if all you care about is vibes, stay at home and use a made-in-China vibrator." And if that sounds cringe, good. -
It is quite fun to fart in a room sometimes, yes.

Walked right into this one.

I seriously think Putin has a video of Trump fucking a child.

I was aboit to post that. It seems to be oddly specific, doesn't it . . .

Oh yes, evangelicalism is definitely a problem too. It is mainly an American problem though, the way it intertwines with politics. Gen Z men are more Christian than millennial men, not by much. People may automatically dismiss this and say oh, they're just idiots who have become more conservative. I think, however, this suggests a new trend of wanting structure in a world that seems to be falling apart. The church was not always automatically associated with a certain political ideology in the US, and there is a growing trend of wanting to break away from it. Of course, I find religion to be intellectually dishonest, but I can see the benefits of faith and community.

I think one way for the church to gain followers again is to not require one to believe Jesus died for everyone's sins and resurrected three days later. Jesus still taught about empathy and compassion that still holds true today. This is not even an new position to have of faith; Thomas Jefferson believed in the teachings of Christ but he did not believe in the miracles and divinity. Maybe it's time to stop beingbso puritanical about faith. And even though this is unpopular now, I can see this reinterpretation of faith gaining traction in an uncertain age of AI. It's kind of like Romanticism during the Industrial Age.

I remember when I was younger, I wrote "THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS HAS BEEN OPENED" huge on the wall. My father got really pissed at me. lol, fuck him. -

I say early. 44 to 46 are mid, 47 to 49 are late.

That's when you step up your game with kegelspasms.

Please, Barbara was a privileged bitch. That was more of a power play than reporting. She once dated Roy Cohn, the closet case lawyer that made Trump who he is today.

I'm taking advantage of the free courses Harvard is offering now. It's probably the only way I'll ever be affiliated with the institution. Very interesting material. -
I thought Sapphic Albanian was the first, imported from Lesbos.

I was before Trump got re-elected. Knowing the history of the rust belt, the current attitude toward globalism by many MAGA type blue collar workers, and Nippon Steel saving their jobs . . . it just leaves a poor taste in my mouth. As I said, I trust that Nippon Steel has a suitable long term plan. The deal is being made regardless of what I think, and it makes Trump look good. Whatever, really.

Sometimes you just have to love language model AI

Horrible AI images meant to be funny. -
Texas is a shithole that I don't really care for, that's really all I have to say.

I'm talking about their fathers who worked in the steel mills that got shut down by Japanese steel companies like Nippon Steel. Much of the sentiment against China right now mirrors the US-Japan rivalry in the 1980s. Trump wanted Japan to be tariffed to hell back then. And lol, mentioning Pearl Harbor like this is in exceptionally poor taste.
