And it's always in the same direction, isn't it? He's always lurching to the left.

Barf. Just saw Dear Leader's slopaganda commercial during the Packers/Buccaneers game. What a waste of my money.

I'd expect to hear, see, and read a lot more of this shit in the coming weeks. He's desperate. The question is how far he'll go in his desperation as the election nears.

"Done a job". My grandmother used to say that when one of her grandchildren had a dirty diaper.

I am, too. I really want to find a new gig. And the W-2 contract jobs I've been hit up for invariably don't include benefits, something I haven't seen before (although I haven't contracted in a long time...maybe that's been normal for a while).

So, like, this isn't scary as fucking fuck, right? "...the Defense Department was actively conducting a “classified review of U.S. nuclear employment guidance, with the goal of increasing options available to the president” — a review launched “in light of the changing global nuclear landscape.”

The potential follow-ups missed in this interview are the size of Alaska. "What does 'annihilation' mean to you?" "If there can't be peace with Iran, why are you trying to cut a deal?" "Are you proposing to 'annihilate' innocent civilians?" The media sucks.

If you aren't a @talkingpointsmemo.com reader, you should be. Rigorous, reliable independent journalism is real. It's available. And it's worth it.

@faineg.com, I spent quite a bit of time coaxing Grok...I mean, America...into revealing what it could about its internals. Once I got past the "ask me a process question" loop, the results were interesting.

I asked the model if it was trained or if its function is simply fetch and assemble for output. It says it does not know, but it's citing a lack of available information on government websites, so I assume the Minecraft output is a confabulation of something that exists on a public-facing site.

Kate Sometimes @bestsloth.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
I'm tempted to ask the model if it's fetching live data from government websites or if it was trained on that data. If it was trained on it, the weights are fixed and it will persist until/unless someone with interpretability skills somehow purges it. And there might be other...anomalies.

Oh, it gives you the links to file an FOIA request. But it won't tell you HOW to file it.

Kate Sometimes @bestsloth.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
Oh, I know. But "America" says it can't confirm that because GSA hasn't published anything that actually says what labs were involved, and that it (the model) isn't allowed to search outside of "government" sources.
020
Kate Sometimes @bestsloth.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
Oh, totally. That's exactly what it feels and sounds like. And I asked it, point blank, if it was generated output that I couldn't find on existing government websites. This is a waste of money.

On a serious note, I hope inexperienced seniors or people with limited technical skills end up on this site. It's a clusterfuck.

And this is even BETTER (after I asked it why it was just generating links I could have found through a search engine):

Who stole the life from you? Who turned you so against you? Who was the thief, who shaved your teeth Accepting just virtue? And did he act alone? Were any more complicit? When he would sing, and offer the ring What older voice said, "kiss it"? Who? Who? Who?

He really loves to rename things, doesn't he? I'm actually semi-legit surprised he doesn't want to call it "Trump Intelligence".
