every time i get suckered in by a "but what about all the useful stuff AI does in my life??" argument the useful stuff is either "something you could google in two seconds" or "highly-skilled labor you don't have and therefore can't fact check"

If this was an ⚡🪑 attempt at state murder, and the first throw of the switch failed to kill the person, would the executioner get to "jiggle the handle" to see if the next try worked? This is just inhumane treatment ON TOP OF Inhumane treatment. And they'll probably put her back in prison... 😠

"T-1000, have you killed John Connor?"

"Yes, Skynet, I killed him dead."

"T-1000, my sensors indicate that John Connor is still alive."

"You were absolutely right to call me out on that, and I have no excuse for providing an inaccurate answer. Let me rephrase it to better align with the facts: I have not killed John Connor. Here's why:"

My dog has the power to cloud my mind. My head policy is that he can't be fed until after 6am. This morning his stirring woke me. I double-checked the time on my phone: 6:12. Fine. After I'd let him out and put down his food, I noticed that the microwave said it was 5:15. Watch confirmed it. 🤦🏻

Somebody said, "We don't want AI to write our emails for us, we want smart people and money working on helping our dogs live healthy to 60."

👇🏻 There's so much wisdom in his books (HHGTG & Dirk Gently), disguised in the absurd humour that still applies (or is even more relevant), that I hope some of The Kids are giving it the time.

Yellowknife! I am (temporarily) in you! (A brief pause to off- and on-board passengers between Toronto and Whitehorse)

Certainly by the time I moved to Toronto (36 years ago, holy shit!), grabbing NOW on Thursdays was essential. 45 years ago - September 10, 1981 - launch of Toronto's NOW Magazine.

9/11/2001 I was a freshman in high school in Alabama, I wore a hijab. In gym class my teacher wheeled in a screen. Something horrible was happening. I watched, mouth agape as the second tower hit. We were silent. As that period reached an end, my name was announced on the loud speaker. 1/

I’d love to hear from Venezuelans how they feel about Delcy Rodriguez selling out the entire country for her own advancement:

Donald J. Trump C @realDonaldTrump
BREAKING NEWS: The United States of America has just entered into an Agreement with the Country of Venezuela on, THE BIGGEST OIL DEAL IN WORLD HISTORY! At my direction, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, working closely with Highly Respected Interim President of Venezuela, Delcy Rodriguez, and, through a partnership with private business, have secured majority U.S. control of more than 65 BILLION BARRELS of proven Oil Reserves in Venezuela, at no cost to the American Taxpayer. This Historic Transaction MORE THAN DOUBLES American Oil Reserves, greatly increases our Oil Supply, and will substantially lower Gas Prices for all Americans, long into the future, while helping to continue to set Venezuela on a course toward Tremendous Success and Great Prosperity. This Transaction will greatly strengthen the already growing relationship between Venezuela and the United States! Thank you for your attention to this groundbreaking matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President
DONAID.J. TRUMP

What horror movie image haunts you? The action that precedes this door slam.

Tim Curry. Immensely talented actor, voice actor, singer, performer, and handsome man, has died at the age of 80. The Rocky Horror Picture Show made his name, but I'll always remember him delivering his lines, as a devil, as though he were mid-orgasm, in "Legend." And so it goes...home
