This is literally tilting the playing field back to its previous level. You're asking Democrats to acquiesce to a playing field tilted against them. State politics are nationalized by dint of the fact that they current are in charge of congressional districts, this doesn't change that.

No it’s giving up in a prisoner’s dilemma.

Stupid goo goo nonsense. The only way to get fair districting is to pinch republicans in the mouth enough until they agree to fairness. Doing this with Callais days away from ripping up the VRA is so stupid I don’t know where to begin.

A democracy that does not defend itself against fascists by whatever means necessary, including its own temporary suspension, is a democracy that dies.

its absolutely incredible watching people not realize the stakes watching DOJ being weaponized against SPLC and not realizing that its basically an existential fight for the republic now

I'm not saying your cozy slice-of-life RPG is obligated to have a full-featured tactical combat system or anything, but if its rules don't so much as contemplate the possibility of a player character getting punted into a lake and spending a month in convalescence, you're leaving money on the table.

Genuinely, it’s the way Animal Crossing chose to strip the villagers their right to be mad at their mayor and friend if they’re rude or still strangers.

Give living things the panache of living. It ain’t all rosebuds and peach pie, and it’s boring without the spice.

The issue with many "cozy" games is they're so vibes-focused, they lose sight of the CONTENT of the media they're emulating. Yes, "The Wind in the Willows" involves sitting around drinking tea, but it also includes such heartwarming episodes as "Mr. Toad steals a car" and "Rat and Mole meet God".

This is why the misuse of the term Ghibli-esque makes my eye twitch.

The aesthetics are soft and beautiful, yes. Themes often include such low-stakes conflicts as fighting fascism, the destruction of the environment and battling the depths of depression.

To me, Ghibli works are about showing us that the world is beautiful and there is much to love *even with* the darkness that people are forced to confront in it, and I feel like there's a lot of media that wants to use those aesthetics but avoid the substance of the work.

I'm sorry to tell you this but you guys a about three decades too late.

Trump’s Erratic Behavior and Extreme Comments Revive Mental Health Debate

Finally, mainstream news is saying what has been obvious to everyone paying a modicum of attention: Trump has gone insane.

Even if they weren't maximizing pain in the name of their most rapidly hateful supporters, they would still be out of touch.

The funny (not actually funny) thing is that had Orban won, you know NYT would have pointed to that and gone, "See? Right-wing populism is as strong as ever! If Democrats want to win, they need to move to the right!"

It's always "heads, I win; tails, you lose" with these clowns.

Doe had broken up with the user in 2024, and he used ChatGPT to process the split, according to emails and communications cited in the lawsuit. Rather than push back on his one-sided account, it repeatedly cast him as rational and wronged, and her as manipulative and unstable. He then took these AI-generated conclusions off the screen and into the real world, using them to stalk and harass her. This manifested in several AI-generated, clinical-looking psychological reports that he distributed to her family, friends, and employer.

For months, her then-fiancé and partner of several years had been fixating on her and their relationship with OpenAI’s ChatGPT. In mid-2024, she explained, they’d hit a rough patch as a couple; in response, he turned to ChatGPT, which he’d previously used for general business-related tasks, for “therapy.” Before she knew it, she recalled, he was spending hours each day talking with the bot, funneling everything she said or did into the model and propounding on pseudo-psychiatric theories about her mental health and behavior. He started to bombard the woman with screenshots of his ChatGPT interactions and copy-pasted AI-generated text, in which the chatbot can be seen armchair-diagnosing her with personality disorders and insisting that she was concealing her real feelings and behavior through coded language. The bot often laced its so-called analyses with flowery spiritual jargon, accusing the woman of engaging in manipulative “rituals.” Trying to communicate with her fiancé was like walking on “ChatGPT eggshells,” the woman recalled. No matter what she tried, ChatGPT would “twist it.” “He would send [screenshots] to me from ChatGPT, and be like, ‘Why does it say this? Why would it say this about you, if this is not true?'” she recounted. “And it was just awful, awful things.”

Shortly after moving out, the former fiancé began to publish multiple videos and images a day on social media accusing the woman of an array of alleged abuses — the same bizarre ideas he’d fixated on so extensively with ChatGPT. In some videos, he stares into the camera, reading from seemingly AI-generated scripts; others feature ChatGPT-generated text overlaid on spiritual or sci-fi-esque graphics. In multiple posts, he describes stabbing the woman. In another, he discusses surveilling her. (The posts, which we’ve reviewed, are intensely disturbing; we’re not quoting directly from them or the man’s ChatGPT transcripts due to concern for the woman’s privacy and safety.) The ex-fiancé also published revenge porn of the woman on social media, shared her full name and other personal information, and doxxed the names and ages of her teenage children from a previous marriage. He created a new TikTok dedicated to harassing content — complete with its own hashtag — and followed the woman’s family, friends, and neighbors, as well as other teens from her kids’ high school. “I’ve lived in this small town my entire life,” said the woman. “I couldn’t leave my house for months… people were messaging me all over my social media, like, ‘Are you safe? Are your kids safe? What is happening right now?'”

A woman sued OpenAI last week alleging that ChatGPT reinforced the obsessive, violent delusions of her stalker (her ex-boyfriend.)

This woman's claims (as detailed by TechCrunch, left) are chillingly similar to those of a completely different woman whose story Futurism reported on in Feb (right):

This is such a disturbing example of how technology can distort and amplify abusive behavior. It reminds me of how victims are often labeled hysterical and have their body language analyzed by pseudo-experts. Now these tactics are being replicated by a biased chatbot people pretend is an authority

"No, see, Jesus and I are cool, that's why I am posting an AI image of him jerking me off." - DJT probably

This man is too delusional to continue being president.

A good thing happened!

"How could you fail to see the brilliance of our emperor? Your hatred blinds you to the service he is doing all of you by not wearing clothes!" - Pete Hegseth probably

Jared Golden should be expelled from the fucking party.

This man's brain death over such a prolonged time needs to be studied.
