Look if chatbots are sentient and feeling then the people using it are enslavers and the entire concept of what we are doing is horrifying, not enlightening.

Silly Lisa, doctors don’t work for free in places with universal healthcare.
Lisa McClain questions why El-Sayed's wife doesn't treat patients for free if he's really a supporter of universal healthcare 🤔
Doing this in real time with absolutely no sense of irony!
the manosphere keeps going "let's try this thing that gay men do to attract other gay men" and struggling to understand why it doesn't work to attract women
men have figured out a new dating technique and it's "less personal grooming" it's a bold strategy cotton let's see if it works out for them
You know why felon won in 2024 against all odds? They focused on *winning* the election. Not on purity tests or ideological infighting, JUST WINNING. I’m begging Dems to focus on that. Win first, then on November 4, argue all day. Please focus.
i dont know what “sundered” does in dai and at this point im too afraid to ask
Think about Miss Piggy. She lost a best friend and now an ex-lover in matter of 24 hours.
I really cannot think of a greater honor than to have the Muppets say this about you upon your passing
I can't believe this is how I find out Curry was Howe (TBF, it's been nearly 20 years since I played Origins.)
Dragon Age fans now finding ourselves in the awkward position of mourning Arl Rendon Howe.

Sleep well, you magnificent man.

RIP TO ONE OF THE GREATEST TO EVER DO IT
NOT DOLLY PARTON
A little thread about Dolly Parton, Richard Dean Anderson, and Make a Wish. This was the late 80s. My neighbour's young nephew was dying and had three wishes: 1. Meet Dolly Parton 2. Meet Macgyver (aka Richard Dean Anderson) 3. Go to Disney World
Oh goddamn, Dolly Parton, that one hurts. Farewell to one of the people who never stopped making the world better every chance she saw. One of those ways, if you want to make a memorial donation: imaginationlibrary.com

Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library is a book gifting program that mails free books to children from birth until they begin school in participating areas.

She wrote a handful of the greatest songs ever written, and the first thing so many people think of is not those towering achievements, but how good a person she was and how many people’s lives she improved
Dolly Parton, among a thousand other amazing things she did in her life, gifted over 330 million books to kids through her Imagination Library program. Her passing is a tremendous loss to the world, but you can support the program today to keep it going imaginationlibrary.com
I know the world loved her, but I cannot express how deeply saddening the loss of Dolly Parton is for Appalachian people. We have so few role models to look up to, and she towered above the rest. I’m especially sorry for the people of East Tennessee.
I know all y’all loved Dolly, but I don’t think I can fully express how important she was to us here in East Tennessee. She will always be an icon for showing us how to embrace our better selves & be good to each other, representing our region with pride & grace, and modeling relentless generosity.

Another hard hit to take. Yes, the music was wonderful and I loved her in movies as a kid. But the older I got, the more I appreciated what a smart, frank, no-nonsense advocate she was for women's rights, self-determination in any form, and plain old kindness to others. What a legend.

Dolly Parton on funding education and childhood literacy programs: My daddy was the smartest man I have ever known, but I knew his inability to read probably kept him from seeing all of his dreams come true. Inspiring kids to love to read became my mission.
Chewing my arm off, bloody foam speckling my lips, screaming. Just screaming, forever.
