"This life is utterly unbearable. I don’t have the energy to endure it anymore. I hope this war ends and I’ll be back home, even to the rubble of my home. I miss making three meals a day. I miss calm and peace. I hope we’ll restore the beautiful times, and this occupation will end. I dream of seeing and living in a free Palestine before I die."

Hi everyone right now I'm fundraising for something called Super Safe Extra Superintelligence Inc (SSESI) and I can't quite share what it is but you have to trust me I need roughly $1B for a barely functional prototype (we promise it will be super duper safe and also super intelligent!!!!)

Our primary competitors, Safe Superintelligence Inc., have absolutely nothing on our GRAND idea that we need lots and lots of money for, heaps of money actually, an obscene amount - the time is now, join us!
