I heard someone in NPR refer to "the heavy metal band, Creed" and now I'm headed into the wilderness to lie down in the leaves and let nature take me from this mortal plane

If everyone can vote, the entire US shifts left, and the "center" becomes closer to what is considered the center in most of the rest of the world. That's way to the left of Biden/Mancini/Sinema/Romney/Clinton. It's closer to AOC.

What's left of the GOP becomes huge, and less racist/transphobic/hateful.

Sometimes when we say conservative we mean conservative. But sometimes we mean "racist and hateful." Black and Latinx people are conservative.

Pls boost so I can show my wife how a toot can go round the world

(we are boarding a long haul flight and will be on the other side of the world when I turn my phone back on, so even with 0 boosts I think this will be a sound demonstration)

The Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus:

(Spoiler: the PNW Tree Octopus immanetized in 1998 via the internet and ONE DAY someone will genemod one into existence—octopi can live a surprisingly long time in air—so that we can be suitably terrorized by the arboreal droptopus.)

I've updated the terms of our service. Pray I do not update them again.

It is simply astonishing that companies are embedding technology into search engines that makes them vastly, vastly worse at finding accurate information.

"Courses will be capped that do not have a high proportion of graduates getting a professional job, going into postgraduate study or starting a business"

From now on, philosophy, language, religion, politics, and culture will be exclusively the purview of the very rich.

For everyone else, college is where you will acquire specific skills that you will trade for wages on the capitalist market. Nothing else.

Elder teenager was talking about career prospects as a trapeze artist, so I said 'there's a high bar to entry,' and I'm far too pleased with that to keep it between ourselves.

#FediTips It is important here to observe respectful communication. For example, be sure to make a blood offering to Ninhursag every morning. (If you don’t have homegrown blood, store-bought is fine). And regarding the hypnotic bees’ conspiracy against the fashion industry, is it advised to not take sides.

hey did you know: trans men are really cool and underappreciated

it feels like we always see lots of support for trans women on here but comparatively much less for trans men so hey, trans guys, you're cool dudes and i appreciate you

I realize belatedly that this question is obviously derived from Edsger Dijkstra's comparison to the question of whether a submarine can swim. Exactly!

Proposal: "Does Bard / ChatGPT think?" is no more interesting than "Are viruses alive?".

... and looking ahead a bit to the next few sections / paragraphs, one rather despairs of having a merely finite amount of cogent stuff to say! But one perseveres...
