I miss Lisa Edelstein’s cleavage

The US government is stupid.

But the need to keep an eye on this guy anyway.

Trump and MAGAtrash are routinely portrayed as simultaneously weak and strong too. It’s just the nature of propaganda.

Iran has always had mandatory military service for men 18+. You can buy out if you’re rich, but they’ve been drafting for years.

And Iran is arguably the #3 major player ahead of Israel who wants to keep their military action at home.

Hasn’t russia been conscripting for a couple of years now?

Just like Tom Cruise’s middle tooth

Based and furpilled.

This is nuts.

Not gravy?

For most of my lifetime, any American screeching about the President arming NATO allies in order to prevent Russian expansion into Europe would have been seen as a traitor.

Lead poisoning is a helluva drug.

I like being spoiled.

And I baked a crusty loaf of sourdough bread this morning.

Hit the Pause Button on Medicare for a couple of years. Literally pay nothing. And a lot of our old people problem will disappear.

Don’t get defensive about this.

AI will gobble up all intellectual property and shit out something similar. Over and over over.

This isn’t about your ego, peanut. Your position is the wrong one.

Nah, you’re wrong. Fuck protecting creators from AI. Let the internet become a circlejerk of bots gobbling each other’s digital cum.

When a good comedian comes along, I’ll go see a live performance. The same goes for musicians, painters, novelists, whoever. Anyone old enough to remember the internet of the '90s will tell you what a derivative shithole it has become already. It’s only getting worse. Artists will adapt and monetize things that AI can’t ruin the market for.

Analog human culture can be fun in ways that no chatbot will ever know.

Does she own the rights to his work by chance?

Excellent point.

I listened to the first five minutes, and it’s pretty similar to Carlin’s later work.

I’m not clutching my pearls about this any more than Steamboat Willie going into the public domain.

Intellectual property rights are silly, and protecting dead entertainers’ legacies is a waste of time. If a Carlinbot makes a good joke, good for the Carlinbot. What I heard wasn’t very impressive.

#“Hide yo kids. Hide yo wife. They be harvesting organs in the prisons.”

Becoming some random six-year-old would be pretty jarring
