  1. If you were to look at the world through a rational, objective lens, a fair number of the verses would not be out of place in an educational context as broadly known and influential touchstones. The golden rule from the Sermon on the Mount, the story of David and Goliath, Ecclesiastes 3 ("to everything there is a season"), etc. Indeed, some similar touchstones can be found from other faiths and cultural traditions that have found their way into broader culture (the "today you, tomorrow me" ethos of helping others from latin american culture, for example, or the jewish summary of the golden rule), and they wouldn't be out of place in the educational context. But of course, we CANNOT look at it through a rational, objective lens, because that is not why it's being done. It's being done to proselytize and install a state religion (a particular brand of Christianity). If this were an honest discourse, one could have a great current events discussion about the current POTUS, citing the Gospel of John: You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies. I think that would be an interesting, honest discussion. But none of this is about anything but shoving a state religion down everyone's throat. And that is bullshit and should never be allowed.
  2. It's excellent that we live in a timeline where the best response to "AI, if it works as being touted, is an existential threat" is "don't worry, that's not going to happen, because it's really all a scam."
  3. "Thinly veiled." Ain't no "thinly veiled" about it. It's just a flat-out bribe/"the taste" you gotta give to the mob boss. That's it. That's the entire story here.
  4. Imagine the stupidity of making a movie about, and starring, an eastern European whore and NOT making it a porno.
  5. That's not just the America we have - that's the America that 40% of people fucking WANT. They masturbate furiously to that joyful scene. We are a demonic country. We are controlled by pure evil.
  6. Man, I miss the days when this was the only Epstein most people knew: Man. He was great. Signed, Epstein's Mother
  7. Yes. To massive voter suppression efforts, the admin flat-out seizing ballots and voting machines from blue areas/precincts, etc. The better things look for Dems, the worse they look for us actually having legit elections. The regime and the party made of knob-gobbling sycophants are following the full authoritarian playbook. We should believe them.
  8. I've seen that recipe, as have my kids. How'd you like the results?
  9. Dude. Minorities aren't going to beat THEMSELVES up.
  10. Your doubts of the veracity and reliability of SNOWBIRDBOB causes me great consternation and concern.
  11. You know, if Nancy would just free those cannons in some pics posted on Reddit, @Red Five and I would take care of all the upvotes she's looking for. We are not proud men.
  12. Yeah....see....I don't think it much matters WHERE it got the idea from. It's that it fucking HAS the idea, and is increasingly being given power and autonomy to execute on the idea. It don't make a shit that Reggie didn't come up with the idea to kill the queen, but rather was programmed to....it was still an existential threat to Elizabeth: It doesn't matter whether "exterminate humans" was sui generis of a self-fulfilling prophecy.....if AI is at all reaching that conclusion, in any incarnation it is....and follow me here....BAD.
  13. I mean....we LITERALLY have a secret police force grabbing people (yes, including legal residents and citizens) off the streets and disappearing them for hours/days/weeks at a time. They've exploded the deficit and debt in record time. The 4th amendment is dead and buried. The Executive branch uses its full weight to seek vengeance against all who oppose it or even didn't vote for it in sufficient numbers. But see, "authoritarian state" doesn't = "big government" to Republicans. Because...."big government" can only happen under governments that are left of Attila the Hun. When a hard right government does it, well, that's just "restoring law and order," and "enforcing the Biblical order of things." Republicans have no principles -- not a single one -- other than "we want to have all power, unchecked and unlimited, and use it against our enemies, which we will define as broadly and arbitrarily as we fucking wish at any given moment." That's it. Or, you know, Wilhoit's law.
  14. I love this new pattern we seem to be getting most winters. We're going to sweat, and not have winter. Until we get winter, and then we are all going to freeze and die. Cool, cool.
  15. Human beings like to hear soothing bullshit that tells them that (1) they are awesome, and (2) everything bad in their life is someone else's fault.....film at 11:00 for this breaking news story. Liars are making millions selling bullshit to people eager to eat serving bowls full of said bullshit. I'd say this happened faster than I thought, but that would be a lie. It's pretty much right on time. The GOOD thing, though, is that all of our positive GDP over the past year is propped up investing in.....a technology that wants to exterminate us. It's good for creating a fake economy, enriching billionaires with vaporware and fake money-moving transactions that just end up giving those billionaires even MORE power and control over all of humanity, and will soon take active steps to exterminate our species. Try to find something NOT to hate about this timeline. Seriously, try. You can't come up with anything, can you?
  16. Lurid conversations Tesla drivers had with Grok. Telsa drivers have phone sex with an AI bot while driving? That checks out 100%. Fits this timeline like a glove.
  17. There are plenty of lawyers who have worked on massive document productions (seriously.....back in my baby lawyer days, worked on a couple -- and this was back in the heavily paper days, mind you -- that were in the many millions of pages). Also large electronic doc productions. And while none of them are PERFECT (that many pages, something will slip through), from what I've seen/heard/read about this one, it's a clusterfuck. Either amateur hour or intentional sabotage, or both. Everything this admin touches dies. Even its now wholly-owned, answerable-only-to-Trump, law firm formerly called the DOJ. They have managed to take one of the better legal departments/firms in the world, and in a year, turn it into a fucking joke.
  18. Some things are so predictable they almost don't need saying.
  19. My dudes…you know that 150% of republicans will be bit just fine with all of the allegations against Trump, they’ll actually find a way to rationalize that they’re good. After all, don’t you WANT a virile alpha male leading us? Also, when there are multiple independent allegations and pieces of evidence that all tell similar stories…that thing happened. I recall MANY years ago reading some investigation files about an individual. Four separate accounts. All of them had a similar detail. Four accounts, independent, with unique and identical facts? Yeah. Dude did why he was accused of. My dudes. Trump did what he is accused of.
