In the past I might’ve had hope, but in this political reality it might no longer be possible. Even if the writers planned it from the start, there ain’t a chance the producers greenlight obviously queer coded characters openly being queer.

but it was my ice cream! No way I would forgive him 😡

not enough. it needs more jpeg

edit: more

Yes my mom is an incomprehensible god; how did you know? :3

What a forward thinking point of view.

No, you’re 100% right, but people who think California is good tend to think liberalism isn’t a justification for an empire to serve the wealthy.

And I’m telling you, as someone who grew up around and has paid a lot of attention to liberals, they believe their own bullshit. They’re not special; every such group is like this.

I think that’s a lazy way to understand them. They really believe they’re the good guys, as do fascists and tankies and right wing libertarians. Very few people are actually that nihilistic, and even those that kinda are end up believing the shit they say anyways.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT IS THIS NOT BAD ENOUGH ON IT’S OWN!!! THIS WILL LITERALLY BE USED TO LOCK UP REAL FUCKING PEOPLE IN THE FUTURE, YET THE ONLY LANGUAGE YOU CAN UNDERSTAND FOR OPPOSING HIM IS “HA HA, HE’S A PEDO.”

I’m genuinely tired of people acting like this is some instant kill move. His friendship with Epstein is old news that is only relevant and salient now because some Trumpians are mad at him for other reasons. They recognize that Trump hasn’t delivered what they wanted, but they lack the understanding and vocabulary to actually articulate the reasons for their anger. What they do understand is accusing people of being a pedo, and oh boy is Trump a certified Pedophile.

I understand memeing on him about it, and I often find it funny, but for the love of fuck, please stop acting like Trump’s crimes against humanity are a distraction. Yes he personally abused kids in the past, but he’s also systemically abusing kids right now for simply being born in the wrong country. It’s fucking disgusts me when people do this.

And yet, they aren’t organizing to win such a supermajority like anything depends on it. They aren’t conveying the urgency, aren’t working to reunite the party, aren’t even trying to be compelling controlled opposition. I think deep down they know they hold no power and will hold no power, but they’ll do anything to keep other liberals or themselves from admitting it. Normalcy is the only thing they have left, so they’re keeping it alive even as our god emperor tears everything in the country apart.

The only battleground that actually matters anymore is for local elections, and they’re doing everything they can to combat their arch enemy: the left.

And people wonder why I dislike Newsom and his Democratic allies. They’re experts at passing laws and crafting ballot measures which sound progressive, but are actually schemes for padding the pockets of wealthy interests. Raising sales taxes which disproportionately impact poor people, only every trying to address the housing crisis with more construction of houses, even cleverly passing a measure for funding ecological projects that give capitalists an opportunity to profit(it’s been a bit since I heard about the details, but it was in the last election and I was blown away by their ingenuity).

Our state is not some shining beacon of liberalism, but fucked by capitalism just like everywhere else.

Apparently all the people getting fired for being happy that a Nazi died didn’t matter to Democrats, but Kimmel is the red line for them. It’s less that they care about free speech and more that this is shatters their illusion of sensibility. They’re acting like this is the start of Trumps attacks when this is just the incident that actually woke them up. Companies and institutions have been bending the knee since the beginning and they didn’t say shit; these are now the normal rules of American business.

I listened to an interview on the radio recently that was enlightening in how little it said. It was a geopolitics analyst giving the most lukewarm condemnation of Trump killing Venezuelan civilians. He eventually admitted that no legal experts actually believed Trump had the authority to do it, but only weakly claimed we should “ask Congress if this is the standard we want going forward.”

Liberals have been so scared to even call Trump a fascist dictator, which I think is because they don’t want to accept how fucked the situation is. They don’t want to admit that their precious rule of law is dead and buried. They want to keep a semblance of normalcy alive, in part because it helps their financial backers, but mostly because accepting the horrors makes them feel responsible for actually doing something to fix it.

Liberalism didn’t die with a bang, but with a whimper.

I don’t understand this

We don’t fully understand how a brain wires together to produce everything we see, but we do understand the basics of how they grow connections and change through reinforcements. This basic knowledge was essential for designing neural networks and various methods of deep learning in the first place, even if it doesn’t produce true human intelligence.

It’s like if you cut out sections of any animal brain and train them to do a specific task. It isn’t exactly the same as how brains work, but it does feature similar shortcomings for similar reasons. It builds connections and reinforces them, associating related “ideas” or clusters of information. The people who built machine learning models took heavy inspiration from how neurons work, while also taking inspiration from evolution when designing how they improve over iterations. There are very simple rules that lead rise to highly complex phenomenon in both.
