@senatorshoshana Abusers breathe air, so oxygen also facilitates domestic violence. No “reductio” needed for this “absurdum”

@senatorshoshana It would be helpful anytime someone proposes a tax like this to remember that all taxes are paid by people. So really the question is “should people pay taxes related to use of AI, which people, and how much should they pay?”

@senatorshoshana Jon is probably unfamiliar with who was doing the “wrestling” in this scenario

Trump: Dumocrats. They’re dumb. It’s d-u-m. I got rid of the b. So, you’re only changing one letter. E goes and the U comes.

@senatorshoshana Like, that’s the ONLY requirement?

Grew up in a town this size. We had a shopping mall and 3 McDonald’s. The manager of KFC would deliver food to your house if you complained enough.

Weird stuff happened all the time.

Rewatching Twin Peaks and struck that the city has a population of 51k people, which means all this weird stuff is happening in a town with a shopping mall and at least five mcdonald’s

@DavidAFrench Ok this confused the hell out of me bc I thought he was talking about Cameron, not Russel.

@senatorshoshana @Centralflzoo Imagine 31 sloths dying and saying “is it me? …. No, no. It’s the sloths who are wrong. Johnny, buy more sloths!”

@scottlincicome I like to periodically remind people that I was once assessed a penalty by the IRS for “failing to pay the amount due” by the deadline. On the very form the IRS sent me to notify me of this penalty, they helpfully listed that the “amount due” that I “failed to pay” was “$0.00”

@abnerpastoll Actually, the new one is just a long exposure of the dark side of the earth. Look closely and you’ll see the aurora around the edge of the planet. But the lack of light accounts for the lack of color contrast.

Deeming him a “threat to the peace of the world” after repeated incidents of political upheaval, the British exiled Jonathan to St Helena in 1882. His 150 year term of exile will end in 2032, at which point he will likely conquer Europe.

[The Associated Press @AP]

Jonathan, believed to be 193 and the world’s oldest known tortoise, is still alive on St. Helena despite rumors of his death. Officials dismissed the reports as a hoax, saying he is “very much alive.”

@benlandautaylor He wasn’t convicted of murder. But you will be. Congrats.

@senatorshoshana Interviewed a guy for a job once and I’ve never been convinced that he wasn’t just an AI avatar. All of his responses felt like exactly what you’d get from an LLM.

@HubieTalksHoops @kevin_nealon Technically, the sun is a miasma of incandescent plasma
The sun's not simply made out of gas, no, no, no
The sun is a quagmire, it's not made of fire
Forget what you've been told in the past

@scottlincicome Can’t you fix this?

[Patrick @looptrnnr]

@perpetualtalk @Kana_Tsbs @LauraLoomer @SouthwestAir Literally a different person, but I guess they all look alike to you

@senatorshoshana What’s impressive about this to me is that it added a ring light reflection in your pupils. When I used earlier versions to try to quickly edit headshots, it actually completely blackened the pupil giving the final images that dead behind the eyes “Polar Express” quality …
