Gabapentin hit hard last night. Fell into a super deep sleep at 11pm and woke up at 3am. Is it insomnia if you’re annoyed and bored and in the dark and alert and rested and refreshed? Either way, not a fan.

The same thing happens with any program. You didn’t write the instructions correctly. There seems to be a belief an LLM is thinking or has “misunderstood” something. All that happened in your hypo is the sequence of words you typed got parsed based on a word sequence frequency database.

Someone who has been here since he was three years old is an American. I don't give a shit about paperwork. And obviously, no one of any nationality should die this way, but I must point out the absurdity of this fascist blood-and-soil rhetoric that our immigrant neighbors are "unassimiliated."

Prisciliano Trejo Ricano came to the U.S. at 3yrs old. ICE took him this June. He was 29. He told his family he didn't feel right but ICE wouldn't give him medical attention. After a month, ICE finally moved him to a hospital Prisciliano died five days later enlacelatinonc.org/en/Young-Mex...

One thing that has changed since I was a kid is that old people used to have much better manners than young people. Now if the guy behind you on the airplane is playing phone games with the sound on, odds are good he’s in his sixties.

I shall form a SPAC to raise funds to acquire this and future anticipated coin flips, attracting $258M in capital from investors. I will take a $500K/year management fee while we wait for the coin flip market to fully develop.

is he going to a kegger or a dignified transfer of the remains of troops who died because of his senseless war? hard to tell from his tone

Democrats are more of a loose affiliation of dissenters, so they’re less likely to go full-cult like MAGA, but *someone* has to be the nominee and there’s a risk we’ll end up have to choose from a gallery of grifters and unprincipled frauds.

This demonstrates my point that Trump is a symptom of politics becoming just a form of entertainment. It’s not real, it’s content. Voters want fun and validation. MAGA found their star in Trump, and the left is still looking for theirs. It could absolutely get worse.

white house sources close to president trump are saying his bodily swelling and nesting behavior the past several months are indicative of what is “almost certainly” a hysterical pregnancy and are asking the american people to play along during a prime time tour of “baby’s room”
