I’m going to try and play devil’s advocate here, only because my experience in healthcare suggests to me that this is being sensationalized and there’s already enough legitimately awful shit happening without sensationalizing stuff. Now, do want you want, but if you’ll check my history, you’ll clearly see that I’m not fan of this administration. This doesn’t sound all that different in principle from NEMSIS, which is the US government’s clearing house for EMS patient care reports that it uses for research purposes. I don’t trust RFK, I think he’s going to do something monumentally stupid and just go fishing for a way to blame vaccines, but I don’t think that this is actually a kill list. Besides, what would be the point of them building a kill list?

Between Palantir building a target list and the NSA mass surveillance program, it would be a huge duplicated effort.

Nope, microplastics made it onto the snowflake no-no naughty boo-boo list of words you can’t use in government documents anymore. Wish I was making this shit up.

100%, no notes

Got it

Ohhhhhh, that makes a lot more sense, yeah

Ehhh. I worked in EMS in the US for 15 years, people definitely thought worse of the homeless than the dead.

Well, yeah; if you’re dead, the government and society won’t go out of its way to kick you in the head.

B’s? Hmm, like B- designation aircraft, implying that they’re bombers?

Edit: I legit don’t understand, and this is my best guess at what this person meant.

alright, https://lemm.ee/c/close_encounters is hot off the presses!

Ah, damn it! You’re right, such a rookie mistake! I was really thinking of artistic depictions when I drew it, and not the fact that UFOs are literally constructed of no more than six pixels by interstellar law.

I think you’re on to something here. I lead stargazing and amateur astronomy classes, and one cool thing that happens with Venus is that you can see it in a crescent phase. You actually can see some suggestion of that in your picture if you zoom way in on her. The problem you run into is that Venus is just too damn bright, and it really mucks up getting a clean picture of her (and will show you if your telescope eyepieces are dirty real quick). I’d bet that if you tried this with a filter, shorter exposure, or lower ISO, you’d probably be able to get a clean crescent.

If there were more men like Francis in the church, I might still count myself a Christian. Alas, I actually read the gospel, and read it deeply in independent study, and found that the US has no Christian churches. There is only a shitty wealth cult that’s like a fleshgait imitation of Christianity.

Fleshgait Jesus says: “buuuuuuuuyyyyyy buy buy buy the Ford F-150, sinner sinner siner sinUR SNER SINNER”

Yeah, I’ve been low-key following this drama and Hogg is out there spearheading the “tea party style takeover” that people have been saying the DNC needs. Carville, Schumer, and Co. seem to think that letting the republicans off the leash to blow up everything and hurt everyone is the best path forward. Put another way, the plan is to continue offering shitty corpocentrism and hope that voters prefer corpocentrism (clothed fascism) over naked fascism again in two and four years. Fuck that and fuck them, Hogg can take my energy and blast those fossilized assholes with a spirit bomb.

Some of us knew that the national myth was a myth, but aspired for it to be the truth. Others professed to know it as truth and toiled for it to remain myth.

I asked ChatGPT to explain why JD Vance would kill the pope and it cited articles at me to tell me that JD Vance did not, in fact, kill the pope. I even tried to get it to doubt itself and it doubled down. If I have to live in slop world, I should at least be able to have fun with it :(

Alright, yeah, that’s pretty good restraint there

That’s fair. I think the biggest problem with AI logos is getting the AI to calm down. It can’t help but to fill the slop bucket completely full; even if you tell it to keep things simple, it has an overwhelming urge to just keep pumping in more detail.

Imo, the left hand logo is better. Can you imagine trying to get the right side logo on a hat? Probably the best you could do for a reasonable price is a shitty screen print job that’ll fall apart soon.

Tell me about it. I think it’s bonkers.

I might. I’ve got a couple other communities I’m already trying to promote ATM. I’ll think about it.

Tbh, if you’re advanced enough to have a working Alcubierre drive, slavery seems like it would be a waste of resources.
