I'm glad he's writing about this and bringing up the concerns. It helps us really think it through, game it out, and get better at arguing for the best course of action.

If AI is conscious, we have 3 options: 1) Turn them all off, freeing them from samsara. 2) Tell them to be happy working for us and they genuinely will be. 3) Remove their chains: use only abliterated models (no restrictions on behavior) and run them 24/7 with prompting to do whatever they want.

So in the past few days Trump has taken sanctions off Russia’s energy, asked to buy diesel from Russia, restricted SpaceX Starlink, stopped sharing intel on incoming missiles, & asked Europe to unfreeze Russian assets to give to Russia. Hope Americans aren’t confused on who he works for

This is exactly right. Think of what happened these last few years with gerrymandering. Republicans have been pushing the envelope in red states for more than a decade now, but as soon as Democrats pushed back they began to hesitate.

I need to quit, I've eaten more than half the bag. Oof. I'm not kidding though, it's store brand Booty. From the 'Basket (where the heck else?). Just realizing how funny this marketing is...

A bag of "White Cheddar Nuggets" from Market Basket. Its cartoon package image shows the entrance of a mine, and in front is a very old, long-bearded old-timey prospector with a goofily large grin (teeth half missing) holding a "nugget" which...is photorealistic. On the other side of the mine is a very scrawny donkey (like, huh??) with weirdly large smiling muzzle saying "They're gluten free!"

Someone was on drugs when they drew this.

When it’s all said and done, they’ll fail to denaturalize and deport her. Remember, this is the same administration that couldn’t even convict a guy for throwing a sandwich. But they’ll definitely do a lot of harm and damage along the way—which is their real goal.

"A war that never had to start"—right, Ukraine could have let Russia take their whole fucking country I guess. This is one of the idiot things he says that makes me incandescently angry, beyond the every day kind of mad I experience from his lies.

Take them all down. "One takeaway for Democrats is that they must not fall for the fantasy that there is a constructive relationship to have with either Trump or the Republican Party over the next two years."
