  • "The government should be run like a business" is one of the most toxic, wrongheaded and destruction "ideas" to come up. No, the government should be run like a business BECAUSE IT IS NOT A BUSINESS, they are fundamentally DIFFERENT THINGS with entirely different PURPOSES.

  • They elected a Pope who broke a 3 year Twitter hiatus for the express purpose of telling JD Vance he was wrong about being a Catholic... They knew EXACTLY what they were doing...

  • Ohhhhh CBS...you gotta check what other meanings these phrases have... On the other hand...nah...go ahead...continue.
    • CBS on the cardinals: "One thing we know they're not doing is checking Instagram because their devices have all been confiscated. I believe the kids call it rawdogging."

  • 1. The tort is "defamation" slander is just a form of it. 2. Maybe true in some states but definitely not all so your jurisdiction will matter. 3. The "actual malice" standard has nothing to do per se. Per se is about a need to show actual damages. "Actual malice" is about public figures

  • When I've had this conversation I generally describe it as "The bot will do EXACTLY what you tell it to and give you the EXACT information you want...even if it has to MAKE STUFF UP to do it" and that generally gets the point across.
    • it's jolting how little AI skepticism has reached the general public. i've had many acquaintances ask whether i use AI for research and seem shocked when i tell them it's completely useless for that purpose. my wife recently told her colleagues about hallucinations and it was news to all of them.

  • See how @judithemma.bsky.social below tried to escape accountability for this transphobic post while claiming Kathryn is the one who is anti-queer via blocking. Admitted she didn't actually know the entire context and just decided to pile on. Also, "the worst posts ever?" First time online?
    • The idea that Kathryn is anti-queer is absolutely hilarious to anyone that knows her. Hint: no one is being anti-queer, the issue ENTIRELY based on the personalities of the people attacking Kathryn. People like Judy though are absolutely trying to weaponize queerness to escape accountabiliity

      The cis women who don’t pass tend to be very anti queer lol. She looks like John Candy in low effort drag.

  • I believe, and HOPE, that the people that do this are few and far between and are being vastly over represented in reporting in the way you'd see news stories about people spending 18 hours a day on World of Warcraft used to be. But...damn yeah that is some seriously problematic behavior.
    • People using AI to cheat is one thing but what’s even more alarming is people talking about how they talk to ChatGPT all day, how they use it to write text messages to their friends, how it has usurped their own humanity at a time when we need people to resist tech fascism. That’s the real horror
