Starfire’s Deranged Neocon Foreign Policy Podcast @irhottakes.bsky.social · 8h
I don’t trust the mainstream media, but I feel like the primary alternate model, getting the news from the posts of a 14 year-old Romanian schizophrenic shitposter named “G00n3R the Swamp Pervert,” is not necessarily a superior alternative.

I can’t recall who posted a week or two ago that RFK Jr. looks like “an entrail” but I want you to know I’ve had spontaneous bouts of laughter about this ever since. Please reveal yourself so I can thank you personally.

I see this all the time: “oh, I just use grammarly” or “I just use [service with “optional” AI] without the AI parts.” There is no “without the AI parts”. Unless you have scoured the TOS and can absolutely verify a separation, they’re all being fed to the beast (and I don’t trust companies).

Basically using LLMs and agentic ai is a massive security risk and no one should do so basically ever and these companies should be prosecuted for hacking. Also two-party consent should extend to all electronic communications.

Do not carry a cold beverage in their presence. Politely decline any drinks or sweetmeats they may offer. Keep a plain iron nail in your left trouser pocket and a sachet or paper twist of coarse salt in your right shoe. Enter and leave your chair moving clockwise. Follow up with a thank-you note.

The image is of a four panel comic.
In the first panel we see Sarah, the protagonist, next to a stick figure labeled “AI”. The stick figure says, “my outputs look just like yours now.”
The second panel zooms in on Sarah’s face. Above her we see text reading “I think”.
The third panel zooms in closer on Sarah’s face. Text above her reads “you missed”.
The fourth panel shows Sarah drawing happily in a sunlit room. The text above her reads “the point”.

Austin DSA unequivocally condemns the ICE shooting of a man in North Austin earlier today. We stand in solidarity with our immigrant neighbors and recall that an injury to one is an injury to all. The situation is still unfolding, however we demand a full, fair, and LOCAL investigation into the event in order to ensure at a minimum that justice is delivered for the victim and their family.

Pile of gemstones pulled from jewelry. I'd estimate about 70-80% of it is real. Fun stuff, all pieces under 1 carat. If you want to practice gemology, I sell this mix for $4 per carat.
