There would be no ethical use of generative AI even if it weren't *literally* bankrolling the goddamn gestapo and its concentration camps and providing them the ability to generate infinite nazi propaganda slop. But it is also doing that too.

In case you missed it: I sat down with Rev. Adam Hamilton, the megachurch pastor running for U.S. Senate in Kansas — as a Democrat. He’s been an outlier throughout his career, and he’s running a campaign that could end up making Kansas — no joke — closer than Texas. religionnews.com/2026/09/23/h...

How megapastor Adam Hamilton could break the GOP's hold on Kansas
LEAWOOD, Kansas (RNS) — While Democrats have long been considered a longshot for statewide races in Kansas, the Rev. Adam Hamilton's candidacy has proven unexpectedly competitive.

Southwest Kansas is deeply conservative but what is happening in Garden City, Dodge City and Liberal and the surrounding communities has people extremely upset. I don’t think this mealy mouthed bullshit from Marshall will not save him.

for whatever it's worth, Marshall is really widely disliked here, and I don't get the sense Adam Hamilton will shoot himself in the dick the same way Talarico did but also I'm high and also what the fuck do I know.
