  • I always think of George Carlin whenever people tell me how smart they think AI is: “Think of how dumb the average person is and then think about how half of them are dumber than that.

    I deal with the general public every day for my job. People do the most brain dead shit or tell me the most insane things I’ve ever heard on a daily basis. I’ve had customers argue with me that I must be wrong because ChatGPT told them the problem was one thing, and I’m saying it’s something else. The most idiotic was when my solution was about a 1/4 the price, but the AI said it had to be something else so the customer wanted a second opinion from all different technician.




  • I wouldn’t call sealing someone’s entire head in Saran Wrap and plastics bags, and then leaving them unattended, “unlucky”

    The lady has 3 kids and is an adult. How could she not know plastic bags are a suffocation hazard. Yes breath play is a real thing, and it is known to be inherently risky, which is why any amount of research would tell you to either avoid it entirely or have a quick way to restore airflow, and to never leave your partner unattended while doing this shit.

    I’ve done kinky shit. It’s really not that fucking hard to not kill someone. Especially if you’re getting 11 grand for it, I’d expect a little thought and research put into the encounter.








  • You know, I’m not even sure I’ve heard a straight line about what exactly they’re trying to do and what precipitated starting the war.

    There’s been talk about wanting regime change and halting the Iranian nuclear program. But both of those things have been around for what, like 20 years? And the nuclear deal was being worked out over a decade age before trump threw a fit and ripped it up.

    Most wars have a very clear “they did this to us so we have to do this to them in order to secure… blah blah blah.” But with Iran we didn’t really get that. I just woke up one day and the headlines were “surprise, he started another war in the Middle East, checkout this new TikTok trend”

    At least bush had the intelligence to lie about WMDs. Trump just threw a fit and seems hell bent on collapsing the global economy for no reason other than the US hasn’t been bombing as many brown people as it once did.

    Western powers promised Ukraine protection against attack or invasion by themselves and Russia in the December 5th, 1994 Budapest Memorandum.

    The US, France, UK, Russia, and China all agreed not to invade Ukraine and in fact to provide protection, and in exchange, Ukraine gave up their nukes.

    Russia violated this just 20 years later when they invaded and stole Crimea from Ukraine, and now 30 years later they are trying to conquer the entire country.

    Thats why everyone is so hell bent on providing support for Ukraine. Not just because it’s the right thing to do, but because they were promised protection by world powers.
