Of course Republicans want to cut healthcare some more in order to pay for more war. If it were up to them, the entire federal budget would be cops, military, and oil subsidies. There wouldn't be any money for it, though, because they would also abolish income taxes.

These chatbots are like an amulet cursed by dark magic. It grants the wearer an apparent intelligence boost, at the cost of stealing their soul over time and binding them to the object. After extensive use, taking the amulet off incapacitates the person. They can't live without it.

@faithisleaping @malcircuit I wish I could believe that it will eventually be proven to be bad. I'm afraid it's going to become a subliminal part of society and stick with us forever. Technologies have a tendency to do that no matter how harmful they are.

Broadcasting brought us manufactured consent.
Cable brought us cognitive overwhelm.
Social media brought psyops to the individual.

I'm afraid AI be around forever and destroy conceptual diversity.

Classic hypocrisy from our doofus-in-chief. 🙄

Trump calls voting by mail ‘cheating’ just days after voting by mail

President called practice ‘mail-in cheating’ at Monday event after voting in Florida House race via mail

The Guardian

"According to the Financial Times, traders placed about $580 million in oil futures bets roughly 15 minutes before a social media post by Donald Trump about Iran talks, which later caused oil prices to drop sharply."

Exempting women from voting isn't a gift, it’s a gag order wrapped up in a bow.

Framing disenfranchisement as "freedom from worry" is just a polite way of saying you want women silent and powerless.

I am 82 years old.
I have lived through the Cuban Missile Crisis, the JFK assassination, the Vietnam War, the Turmoil of 1968, Watergate, the Hostage Crisis, two oil crisis, disco, Reaganomics, 9/11.
The covid pandemic....
These past 11 months have been easily the most miserable era in America in my lifetime.
The hatred, the bigotry, the lies, the racketeering and pedophilia are beyond anything I have ever seen.
We are not going to hell as a nation.
We are IN hell.
