Here's an actual challenge: what things are proveably *worse* now than they were when you were born?

basically everything is better, but millenials have fallen into the "things were better when I just happened to be a child" trap

online leftist: oh you think "voting* does anything? *chortle* real life leftist org: that concludes our vote to move forward with the vote to denounce the representative from the eastern chapter, who is alleged to have voted. of course the national caucus will vote on whether to override this vote

opsec tip: if authorities demand to see your phone, quickly give it to the nearest toddler. They will instantly wipe it and also lock it with protocol known only to Apple’s internal security team.

one of the many reasons it’s helpful to be a movie nut, is that I am very familiar with the mental gymnastics required to think “this is objectively cool, but also promotes fascism and was funded by blood money.” You see I have watched *any action movie from the 1980s*

they did it… the onion made a good anti AI joke

I feel like this is what separates fantasy writers that have the juice from those that don’t. A lot of aspiring SF writers will give every single thing in their world a flowery made up name. Meanwhile the greats know you gotta have some guys named Luke or Tom

tilly norwood vs fred flintstone made up: ✅ / ✅ has a job: ❌ / ✅ catchphrase: ❌ / ✅ pet dinosaur: ❌ / ✅ is a virgin: ✅ / ❌

speaking as a real AI Artist I continue to be annoyed that this "pretty brunette mid 20s woman" ChatGPT Image prompt keeps getting treated like she's one of the robot women from Ex Machina

now for my annual 9/11 tradition, morbidly watching videos of 9/11 online until I feel totally depressed

the truth about bin laden is that he is a lot more like elon musk than fidel castro he was a stupid horrible wealthy man who believed in nonsensical and horrible right wing bullshit, and he killed a lot of people because of it while not even accomplishing his own stated goals

you are offended by this because you hate AI anything I am offended by this because they did such a bad job making it. Like her face doesn't even look the same! This is just "generic AI woman" face.

I’m not a Nerd and I’m actually pretty dumb so AI solving math problems means nothing to me I will be really impressed when it writes a passable feature length blockbuster screenplay

It is 2001. I am not playing GTA3 (parents won’t allow it) it is 2008. I am playing GTA4 in my friend’s dorm because has a PS3 It is 2013. I am playing GTA5 in my crappy shared apartment on a weekday it is 2026. I am playing GTA6 at night after my kids are asleep

GTAVI looks like a very pretty game that I will play for a significant percentage of my lifetime. It also looks very much like a grand theft auto video game Like halfway through the trailer and you’re driving across the city listening to two characters talk on the way to a mission.

Rockstar released their first look at GTA6 an hour ago. Twitter is arguing about race science and Bluesky is talking about boring depressing politics. Reddit is the last true social media site.

"We need housing for teachers." "We need housing for artists." "We need housing for firefighters." This command and control shit drives me crazy. Just build enough housing for people.

"It would be fine if the moon were made of cheese" gets you 100 replies dunking on you for thinking the moon is made out of cheese because they didn't comprehend the word "if"

the label system is the dumbest part of bluesky hate me because of my bad posts, not because some rando labeled me “AI Lover” without me having any idea

ok i'm sorry if you can shape your mind to see "existing at the same time as llms" as the same as "american chattel slavery" in any meaningful way i need you to get off the fucking internet. you telling nerds to kill themselves is not your john brown moment, grow the fuck up

Ben Collins has really gathered a ton of followers who are perfectly happy to go “what does a JOB have to do with GENDER, who could even come up with such an idea”, as if we aren’t all constantly bombarded with shit like this

an unfortunate amount of online leftists have taken “it’s not antisemitism to criticize Israel” to mean “it’s okay to be racist against Israelis”

What the fuck is anyone even talking about man

the fact that we end up in a war between online leftists and spreadsheet people mostly indicates that online leftists don't have jobs

Type of guy who wants a completely planned economy but also constantly disparages spreadsheet people is an amazingly common type of guy on the Internet. Who exactly do you think is going to be planning your socialist economy.

A major reason why we're going through so many neuroses right now is because the overwhelming majority of careers in the US are "spreadsheet people" and everyone is deeply insecure about this fact

woke one standing by

they should make a website that makes you happy

There is a custom on here of defending positions of essentially libertarian self-interest (I want to speed without consequence, I should have cheap delivery food) with left-flavored language (“well the rich can pay the ticket but the poor can’t”) that I find very annoying
