I’m Ben Averageamerican, the guy this is made for. I love Theo Von, Shane Gillis, Tony Hinchcliff, and the entire Austin comedy scene. My wife and kids hate me, and I have sports gambling debts in the low five figures. And I vote!

the amount of “let people enjoy things” in the replies is disheartening. it’s good to read criticism of things you enjoy!

something lost in all of this Dom Lucre talk today is that, not only did he post CSAM on twitter, but he added his own watermark to it before doing so

“allergic to all things maga” but then proceeds to share content and agree with a dude that is known for posting child sexual abuse content on twitter.

i will admit that i know next to nothing about book publishing, but how did no one involved realize that a DEBUT thriller was AI-generated before a 14-WAY AUCTION and a $2.5 MILLION SALE
