We should be grateful when the world’s “richest” man explicitly says “I am chaotic evil, just ~love~ being evil, wish I could be like my favorite villain and kill a bunch of school kids and then genocide a planet!” because that gives us moral clarity about where we are and what we need to do.

It's amusing to watch an ai struggle through console shenannigans. Did I quote that incorrectly? Did I escape the space? Am I missing a comma?

it has been so hard for democrats to understand this is what people want to hear and not "i seek bipartisan solutions with my friends across the aisle." no! we want to hear how youre gonna fuck up nazis and misogynists and homophobes and bring us into the goddamned star trek future

Who else put down a Polymarket bet on “Erick Erickson and Jamelle Bouie offer the same interpretation of the GOP on the same day “?
