I know parody died a long time ago, but reality dug up parody’s corpse, dismembered it, and rubbed the rotten bits all over itself.

this is all a joke to them because far-right conservatives think that rape is good, and that high status men should be entitled to rape any women around them who are not also already attached to other high-status men. this is their actual ideology

My grandfather died at 55, only outlived g-g-pa by ten years. I look like g-pa which is why grandma was stuck on me, but I think I take after g-g-pa otherwise. My manic “criminal“ mind favors other pursuits than his, that’s all. And I favor mom’s owl clan.

Virginity? His spawn were all sons. Depends on what you mean by work. Bootleggers keep odd hours. My grandma his daughter-in-law had to take care of him when he got old and even more crazy. He was born in 1865, died 1955.

Great-Grandpa was a mean son of bitch, and a tough piece of gristle. He spent 1900-1907 in the Louisiana State Penitentiary for shooting (and killing) a grocer he owed. The grocer was allegedly armed as well and G-g-pa said it was a fair fight. I doubt it.

Y’know, my great-grandfather hand loaded 12 gauge shotgun shells with rock salt, kept a double barrel loaded with ‘em by the door, just for bible-salesmen and such. He’d let ‘em get a head start before he salted their ass. That’s the gunpoint AI grifters ought to face. Metaphorically, of course.

All these jokes about how it's hard to operationalize good values are gonna be really funny when the T-1000s start rolling out. COMIC ◆ www.smbc-comics.com/comic/specify PATREON ◆ www.patreon.com/ZachWeinersm... STORE ◆ smbc-store.myshopify.com
Part 1/2 of a 5-panel SMBC comic update. A man praying at his bedside asks "God, why is it possible to be a good person, but impossible to simply specify ethical rules that always result in good behavior?" God replies "because ethics is like ALMOST EVERY OTHER PROBLEM."Part 2/2 of a 5-panel SMBC comic update. God continues to explain as the looks gradually surprised and annoyed: "try to perfectly specify language-use with a simple rule set. Or boardgame strategy. Or driving a car. Or eating soup. Humans can hold about seven things in working memory at a time, and so have decided that anything requiring eight things is poorly specified! WooOOOoooo a talking ape can’t reduce something to an evolutionary arbitrary quantity of criteriaaaaa. Soooooooo mysteriouuuuus." The man then says "you’re being mean, God." God taunts him in return "are you SURE? Can you specify meanness?  WOOOOooooo OOoooooo!"

Scientists who comprehend the pleasures of discovery—the human part of science—are the bringers of progress, as Nobel biologist P.B. Medawar showed so entertainingly and well, back in 1969 Had a lot of fun revisiting this favorite writer for @flaminghydra.com flaminghydra.com/issue-661/
“Critical reasoning, considered alone, is barren.” One might go farther still and say that critical reasoning considered alone is not in fact reasoning at all, but a mere simulacrum of reasoning—the thinking a machine would do—empty, directionless, asphyxiatingly meaningless calculation.

Medawar’s imagination reaches beyond science with an easy, graceful consideration of Aristotle’s “poetic truth,” which “enriches or replaces scientific truth by truth of a higher kind, that which represents the testimony of a deeper and more privileged insight—a truth so lofty that, if nature does not conform to it, why then, so much the worse for nature.”Sir Peter Medawar in 1969, immaculate in a soft sack suit, he is elegantly greying, with very dark intense eyes, he is wearing a white shirt, slim tie, and a lovely watch

A very uncomfortably high number of awful things can be at least partially explained by the fact that almost every single person with immense capital or political power in this country seemingly uses AI on a daily basis for their decision making

In the days of print I subscribed to Rolling Stone and read the reviews in order to find out about music I might want to listen to. When I was 18. In the 1970s. Today, all kinds of music is looking for listeners, I don’t have to find it, it finds me. No need for Rolling Stone. That’s the mad about.

You’d think they could come up with a better visual. Pauli’s legendary response “not even wrong” to unfalsifiable theorizing comes to mind. This as propaganda is not even bad; it’s lazy.

That looks like White Snakeroot. It contains a toxin. Drinking milk from cows that ate it causes "milk sickness" which killed Nancy Hanks Lincoln, Abraham Lincoln's mother. White Snakeroot is blooming all along the trails I walk around Louisville, Kentucky right now.

I recall that Theodoric, king of the Ostrogoths, was placed in his tomb (an ugly squat thing, kinda like a stubby stone penis), inside of a Roman bathtub for his coffin. He was a much more competent ruler than Orange Julius however.

I went to the local health department and got an MMR shot after a titer showed I had no immunity. I’m 68. My mom got us jabbed with every vax available back in the day (her little sister died of flu in the 30s) but I don’t remember whether I was vaccinated for measles.

I wonder why we have a White House Press Corp. Let Trump call into a news outlet if he wants to talk. Let him buy airtime if he wants to broadcast from the Oval Office. The Press should refuse to give him a pulpit to bully from. He can just “truth” from now on. Nobody needs to see his face.
