Randomly, who wrote the book of love popped up in my head and looked it up on the youtube:






How angry are these white people? 

There is a limit to saying this is ok. Like the realization that oh shit black people do good things. Or that, damn I'll never be able to be that jive.

Glad they finally got grok trained up on Real Time with Bill Maher!

I wonder what was it that Grok posted that pushed Linda Yaccarino over the edge to quit X AI. Was it the anti-semitism, the rape fantasies, the racism or a combination?

[Potato]

Grok doesn't exist. It's just Elon shit posting responses to Nintex questions.

The resistance to even entertaining the idea of curing deafness is one of these strange things. I know there's a history where deaf people were treated quite crudely in medicine (basically claims that they're mentally disabled) but aren't those days also clearly over? I wonder if there's a similar movement in the blind community. I suspect not though

I managed to find a few defending it, also people upset that the topic came up at all because people didn't look into the tweets further:

"YOU are the ones who cut us out by being inaccessible" 

Yeah, society should definitely be structured in such a way as to assume no one can hear.

not a joke or snark, apparently:

"the native americans didn't do this to us, and as a result we overran the country and essentially decimated them and their culture, therefore..."

So I searched:

Speaking at last night’s meeting, Eureka City Manager Miles Slattery emphasized that the city isn’t under contract with Avelo, but said staff have taken advantage of the airline’s inexpensive fares to fly down to Burbank for city business.

“In our processes that we use for contracting services, flights [or] construction projects, we typically go with the lowest cost option, so we have used Avelo for that purpose,” he said. “Overall, it’s a really insignificant amount of our travel [budget]. … We don’t use them very often.”

In Fiscal Year 2024-25, the city spent approximately $130,000 on all travel, $2,500 of which was spent on Avelo flights, Slattery continued. Switching to United Airlines would increase the cost of air travel to Southern California by about 40 percent to $3,500.

All of the 20-odd residents who spoke during the public comment portion of last night’s meeting urged the council to ditch Avelo, with many speakers seizing the opportunity to criticize President Donald Trump’s mass deportation campaign.

...

“We can say, ‘Please, please, Master, would you give me a cheap airline?’ or we could actually have principal,” said Sam, a member of the Humboldt Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). “We could actually say, ‘Screw you guys. We’re not flying with you.’ We have power. We can make a difference in this. We can show the rest of Humboldt that we’re taking a stand. … So let’s have a spine and let’s tell Avelo to go to hell.”

Following public comment, Councilmember G. Mario Fernandez, who asked for the item to be placed on the agenda, made a motion to discontinue the city’s use of Avelo Airlines as long as it contracts with the Department of Homeland Security. Councilmember Leslie Castellano seconded the action.

...

The rest of the council and Mayor Kim Bergel expressed similar sentiments and ultimately voted 5-0 to cut ties with the airline.

A good person, on the right side of history: "We must punish all of the Jews."

[Nintex]

The jews aren't safe shylocking around freely like that.

We should put them into camps and "protect" their wealth until this blows over.

The problem is, $1000 is an absolute fortune to these permanently unemployed dimwits.

how about this, how about we stop:

"are you a rewards member?"

"could I interest you in a tempting dessert item along with your order?"

"would you like to round up for the Taco Bell Orphans charity?"

"press the tip amount on the screen there"

One of the oldest jokes known to human civilisation that still works today when translated into the modern vernacular is:

"How would you like your hair cut?"
"In silence"

Dudes just wanting their shit done with minimum fuss is a very very very very old concern

I don't know if Clara knows this about kids but they tend to believe and trust their parents over hostile strangers.

Remember the times when VPs and Ps would keep their kid out of the limelight to not use them as pawns?
