I went through a period where I chatted with ChatGPT a lot but then I got freaked out by the idea that someone could read the conversations and I deleted most of it. I still ask ChatGPT questions occasionally if it is a complex question that is easier to ChatGPT than Google but I know that ChatGPT is plain incorrect sometimes so take any info it gives you with a grain of salt. Also, be cautious not to start thinking of chatbots as real people, try not to develop an emotional attachment

We've gotten used to stories where all is required to stop a corrupt ruler is exposing the truth. Both Zootopia movies revolve around Judy and Nick ending a conspiracy by the rich and powerful merely by exposing it, and then the rich and powerful are arrested and face consequences. In the new Superman movie, they stop Lex Luthor's evil plan by exposing to the public and destroying his reputation. A lot of fictional stories operate under the assumption that all we have to do is show the public that somebody is corrupt and they immediately lose their power.

Now we keep pointing out that the administration are being hypocrites and not following their own rules, like we think some cosmic rule arbiter will suddenly remove their power for breaking the rules. We are powerless when faced with the reality that exposing the corruption does absolutely nothing. It isn't going to get the corrupt people arrested. It isn't going to make them lose an election. It isn't even going to hurt their reputation much.

I fear within a year or two, any celebrity that spoke out against Trump will be rounded up

The first I heard of Taylor Swift's engagement, was CNN asking Trump for his reaction. His reaction was "I wish them luck".

Can't Trump try being a decent human for once? Lots of people say "well I didn't like his politics but my heart goes out to his family" or something along those lines

His age makes people complacent because they assume he's gonna die soon. Even if he does, I'm not sure it'll improve anything

I do hope it's serious

They can just tell their kids that Santa wasn't allowed to enter the Untied States

I want Mangione to run for congress. Since we've set the asinine precedent that you can't face consequences for crimes if running for office

What controversies will the Olympics generate this year? Will ICE fuck up the world cup? Will something happen at the super bowl? Will all of these events go by without any trouble?

It drives me crazy so many people can't get such a simple thing right. My nephew is almost 2 years old. This is his second year of life (I'm not counting time in the womb). When he was less than a year old, it was his first year.

Yet so frigging often, everyone keeps saying their current age is the year they're in. No, your 30th birthday isn't the start of your 30th year, it's the end. It's so distracting when this comes up in a fantasy series where we're supposed to accept that prophecies are infallible. In the show Once Upon A Time, the Blue Fairy says Emma will come break the curse in her 28th year. NO, the year she is 28 years old isn't her 28th year, it's her 29th year! That's what it means to be n years old, n years have passed since you were born! There is a Disney Channel movie about a boy supposedly turning into a mermaid in his 13th year, but it's his 14th year. The mistake is so prominent THE FUCKING TITLE OF THE MOVIE IS WRONG!
