Regardless of who sits in the Oval Office, I’ll stand with the parents of a murdered child.
I’ll stand on the idea that protecting American citizens comes first.
I’ll stand for our athletes who wore our flag and brought home gold.
I’ll stand against medicalizing kids without parental consent.

These aren’t “policy positions.”
They’re baseline human values.

If your entire political identity is just resist at all costs, even when what you’re resisting is the lowest-hanging fruit for common ground - it betrays your true incentives: power over people. The American people deserve better.

Terradactyl = an observer consciousness that hovers outside systems but can reach into them through awareness.

The terradactyl wouldn’t just “watch reality.”
It would:
detect patterns forming
sense weak points in perception
move between dream and waking layers
influence experience by shifting awareness

"How sexually active are you?”
Very, life fucks the shit out of me,
and I don’t remember the safe word.

Perhaps there are others here who also work in the IT sector and/or have strong connections to the topic:

Currently, I am finding it increasingly difficult to continue working in my field, but in general and not explicitly related to my workplace.
Professionally, I deal with the topic of AI on a daily basis, but also to such an extent that issues such as professional recognition and even promotions depend on excessive use.
AI undoubtedly has its (sometimes really good) uses. Nevertheless, the ethics of its application on the current global scale seem extremely difficult to me.
So difficult that I don't know if I want to remain in this profession with a clear conscience, because I am no longer an IT consultant or developer, but rather feel like an AI coordinator whose job it is to mediate cleanly between humans and machines.
I am currently observing how jobs are increasingly being outsourced to AI. Either actively, by no longer advertising the positions, or passively, by dismissing everything that can be replaced via personnel interviews with seemingly flimsy justifications (you can always find a way to get rid of someone Unwanted).
And global experience shows how wonderful this outsourcing of work is: work becomes less valuable, company owners pocket the dividends, and the social divide grows ever wider.

I chose this profession to solve problems and help people, to specialize in consulting and service, to actively help people, to identify challenges that I am familiar with, and to support them. Even when the day was long and difficult, I could go home with a clear conscience. Because when the problem was solved, my customers were grateful and happy—and so was I, because I was able to help someone.
Today, I have become part of the problem. I no longer help to support people, but to replace them—and I am just waiting to be replaced myself.
I used to have the desire to continue my education in my field, to live my life and to learn. Now I no longer know why I should.

The future and the existence I had once envisioned, the “healthy world,” are no longer there.
And in the evenings, when darkness descends, I can hardly sleep. With my eyes closed, I lie awake, feeling paralyzed, as if my thoughts are constantly running into a wall. I don't dare talk about it with those around me because I only see myself as a burden on the world. I think no one needs my problems—everyone is struggling with their own, and I am just another burden, another eyesore in an already fragile world.
How can I still represent the hope and confidence of a world that is dying, when I am a correspondent of its murder?

BREAKING: Sen. John Kennedy drops the bluntest line on the Senate floor:

“Illegal immigration is illegal. DUH!”— and he’s daring Washington to enforce the laws it passed.

If BadBunny’s singing was translated live (captioning), there would have been a bigger backlash, more ppl turning away from his show.
Just because his music had a “good beat” doesn’t mean that the lyrics are good.

This is one reason why we should teach foreign languages in high school like it was back in the day. But English should still be the main and official language of the USA.

If it’s not the “freebies” it’s to eventually conquer….this can be applied to all cultures worldwide, even more so here in the US where welfare programs are the “goal”

What logic, who would have thought that he would possess that ? lol

Van Jones: “If progressives have a politics that says all White people are racist, all men are toxic, and all billionaires are evil, it’s kinda hard to keep them on your side. If you’re chasing people out of the party, you can’t be mad when they leave.”

Javier Milei: “When you tell a socialist the truth, they cry, claiming it’s hate speech. No, it’s not hate speech. It’s that you’re useless people who have ruined the planet.”
