[cw: horrific] yes, give your credit card to the richest man in the world, who saw a user post an image of a toddler being tortured, and after the user was suspended, personally restored the man's account, verified it, follows it, and now pays the man who posted CSAM of a 2-year old to be on X.

EMERGENCY PROTEST AGAINST ICE. Protestors gathered at Foley Square on Friday after an ICE agent shot Bronx man Oscar Belgal last night. Hundreds of New Yorkers took to the streets demanding ICE get out of NYC and out of our communities everywhere. An attack on one of us is an attack on all of us.

(just coming back to this... I realize one of the reasons it upsets me, jokes aside, is that I am so doggedly against state violence and the death penalty and it's part of what they *hate* about me! these members of a death cult hold it against me! it's always DARVO and projection, all the time.)

Inefficiency is the very mark of luxury now. Tradwives on TikTok making an elaborate display of baking a cake for 6 hours. Efficiency is for the poors, until they're replaced by LLMs.

lmao guillotine, but pinky extended

why do the AIs tell innocent children to self-harm, instead of him

They know what Rocky Road tastes like. In the case of this place, they could even guess what the cardamom crunch tasted like.

I watched a woman at an ice cream shop the other day eye a group of 5 or 6 young folks walk in, and *immediately* tell them, "limit of 4 flavors to taste" (FOUR!). And I realized, the tasting is just part of the "I'm having a decadent experience" indulgence of the whole thing.

same.

didn't you notice?

No echo chamber over there amongst the folks who... see Nazis calling for ordinary people to be killed, and cheer on rapists, and think "oh, that's just regular folks acting normal".

oooof

Very obviously factually true, and something most people in the United States are feeling right now. Which accounts for why they're so in touch with the populace.

Oh, I don't. I just have to have some automated tools to keep track of some of these guys for when they're actually threatening. That guy is part of a cohort who've shown up in person at things, etc. So there unfortunately isn't really an option to totally ignore them.

Very famously, everyone in America is rich, just ask everyone.

I'm assuming that one doesn't stop at 40 Wall St or on 5th Ave at 57th?

Sometimes people push back when I say that staying on Twitter/X breaks your brain & makes you lose touch with reality. Here's a post from the guy who led product at X when they shipped their "create CSAM" feature, with a reply from a psychotic dude who's been posting about me for 14 years straight.

The issue is culture, fundamentally. We have never broken the back of the PBA since they were allowed to storm City Hall in a drunken rage with impunity. The dollars are a measure id their lack of accountability. I think dollars & count are both good measures of whether they’re been made to kneel.
