That’s fair, and also why I hedged about participants in society, because maybe ChatGPT could? But I don’t think ChatGPT can really write fiction, for the same reason my cat sitting on a keyboard can’t write fiction- the end product has nothing to do with intention or communication
Show me a piece of fiction which has nothing to say about societal issues and I’ll show you an author or reader who doesn’t understand literature.
I don’t think it’s even possible for a participant in society to write something that has nothing to do with society. We are all affected by our environments. Fish might not notice the ocean, but it doesn’t mean that they could write something that doesn’t involve the ocean, to really stretch a metaphor.
If there were a crime which deserved the death penalty (there isn’t), intentionally poisoning more than 200 children would be it. It’s technically possible that they’re really negligent and stupid, but hiding the paint was definitely intentional and probably caused additional harm by delaying treatment.
One tricky bit is, if you’re declared legally dead, you immediately become an illegal resident if you’re still alive. And DOGE has already declared a number of people dead by misinterpreting a few databases.
I can almost imagine this being written by Douglas adams, but the consequences a little too depressing. You know, in contrast to the complete destruction of the earth
Gen Z was around 12-27 years old during the election. I think part of it could honestly be due to brain development.
Why the fuck are they doubling down after 14 doctors found foul play unlikely?
I generally want to have sex with my husband after reading erotica. You know, because it’s arousing. How did this not occur to them?
It would be way easier to be a cardiologist if there were only one.
He is now back home with his family after turning himself in Friday.
I’m so happily surprised. Not that he’s in the clear, but I didn’t expect them to let him go at all.
Oh that’s some bullshit. I honestly just assumed that wasn’t a thing because obviously that’s not a reasonable thing to expect from residents.
Edit: the tiniest reassurance: it doesn’t apply to student visas
Permanent resident, not a citizen. He wasn’t eligible to vote, do jury duty, or be drafted, but after all that time, those are basically the only differences.
Xerox has entered the chat, with the first commercial photocopier, the GUI, laser printer, and computer mouse, in addition to the ones you think of.
What case are you talking about? The article in this post is about a Canadian permanent resident of the US.
It’s not the same thing, but he was a permanent resident for over thirty years
Sometimes life is like an episode of it’s always sunny in Philadelphia, and a bunch of bad people are doing bad things to each other.
Yes, now is the time for peace.
The only reason why Kennedy left the Democrat Party, as he said, and joined the Republican Party is because he extorted Donald Trump. He extorted Donald Trump. He forced him under the pressure of – in the threat of a contingent election, that he wasn’t gonna drop out, and they were very calculated in the funding that they received to get on the ballot in certain states to take just enough electoral votes away from Donald Trump to force Congress to choose the next president of The United States. Okay? And Tulsi Gabbard made a deal with Trump too, to get a position in his administration.
I can’t conceive of saying this about trump and still supporting him. A person susceptible to extortion is by definition not a good politician.
Yeah, I was thinking about economies of scale and bulk discounts. In that case, the Catholic rosaries should cost more than the Muslim prayer beads.
Heartbreaking, the worst person you know just made a great point
My first thought: wow, the PPE for the people making road signs must be so involved!
My second thought: unfortunately, probably not at all.
