Confirming it's AI and not photo editing software. Cool.
There are plenty of tools to enhance an image. I tend to use "sharpen" in Adobe Photoshop, though Gemini can do it now, too.
I've had similar thoughts. It's frustrating.
Well, it is a number. He got that part right.
He's had a change of heart, then. That, or he's lying.
Show, don't tell... He doesn't show any empathy, but he sure tells us he's empathic. And yes, RFK Jr is nuts.
If a villain is destroying something you hold dear, it's natural to pray for their demise, a necessary step in ending the destruction. It doesn't mean you're a bad person. That's my thinking, anyway.
Just wasted five minutes trying to figure out what was wrong with my browser.
CHUCK SCHUMER IS CERTIFIABLY NUTS After this report from John Oliver, there's no way he won't resign tomorrow, except... He's nuts! John Oliver has the proof: www.youtube.com/watch?v=dijM...
I remember when the news broke.
My guess is tomorrow we invade Bermuda.
Repost: My local ANTIFA cell has decided to face down the ICE units. Meg proposed we show up, laugh and point fingers, hold up rude signs, and offer them messy, unwrapped pork BBQ sandwiches, which we’ll deliver from a respectful distance of 30 feet. She has a good arm, so it shouldn’t be a problem.
Very odd.
Something is definitely up. Tomorrow will be interesting...
Brilliant.
lol
They would lose their access immediately if they did (as we all know).... Trump's disappearance since late Tuesday tells us all we need to know. Something is amiss in Trumpland.
What's sad is, his mind might be so far gone now that this won't register.
None of the sentences she selected to demonstrate her case sounded particularly AI. As you said, they'd sound familiar to any romance reader (or any genre, really). (I've changed a character's hair color not once but thrice in the same novel, leading me to create character crib sheets.)
With any luck, Modi and Xi will finish Trump off, then we'll be able to start restoring America. I do think it's possible. Both Modi and Xi need the U.S. economy to thrive. First, we need to get rid of Trump.
Whether they like it or not, both India and China need the U.S. economy to thrive. The quickest way to help bring this about is for Trump to disappear, so I expect whatever comes of their meeting, it'll be bad for Trump (but ultimately good for us). Putin just needs China and India to buy his oil
And he's already thinking of a lawsuit, playing with the numbers in his mind ("I could get millions!).
Trump World is falling into pieces.
Or "CDP" ("Center For Disease Propagation").
Brilliant thought piece, and I fully agree. MAGA will die. For those worried about Vance, read Jack's earlier piece about him: www.jackhopkinsnow.com/p/the-gops-e...
I'm unsure what to make of this.
This produced a chuckle. Thanks!
Thanks.
This is our president:
So, if I take a picture of a picture on my desktop with my phone, the only metadata will be from my phone?
How does one do that?
My suspicion is he had his doctors meet him at the golf resort versus the WH or hospital.
Agree 100%, and the tech bros will rue the day they decided to buy Vance's VP position.
I agree. They could have legitimately 25th Amendmentized him a dozen times, but he's more useful to them as acting president. They know Vance's limitations.
It's an icky subject to dive into, but I don't think we can understand the rise in neo-nazism without studying "incels". Crudely speaking, these are men who can't get a date, so they embrace an ideology of misogyny that licks their wounds, so to speak.
Maybe there's a team of doctors waiting at the golf club. Someone should check the license plates in the parking lot.
A lot depends on whether you've just spent two hundred grand on a STEM degree and can't find a job.
These guys? bsky.app/profile/davi...
I sense the great Trump Recession (or Depression) is now getting its legs. Soon, most Americans will feel it, some severely, and hopefully, all will wake up, even MAGAs. Trump won't survive, but there'll be a lot more pain before he's pushed aside. Then we'll deal with Vance, who no one loves.
😂
It's so nice to see Katie liberated from MSM. Her time there must have been so frustrating. Her podcasts are great.
Bob Guccione vibes there...
I got 24-hour suspensions over there all the time.
Try Discord. I lasted ten minutes.
It's like it's a thing now.
Give me London's gloomy late fall weather any day.
Not a football guy (grew up overseas). What am I missing?
They're going to need to put drains around his grave when his time comes.
Well, it happens. I've deleted loads of posts before hitting "Reply," so you're not alone in having whatever thought it was that caused the suspension.
"L" was taken.
The people who matter will never forget, and they'll be sure to reinstate those whom Trump and the right hope to diminish.
Russel Means speaks the truth.
They need to cut that out, and those two need to hit the trail (does Schumer ever remove his reading glasses? It annoys me so much for some reason).
Out of boredom, I suppose, I Googled "who makes Trump's memes?" and this came up: www.ndtv.com/world-news/u...
Seems fishy.
Kyla Scanlon addressed this issue several times in this video. I find her very much worth listening to: www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZO1...
I think he's more interested in defying norms than anything else.
Intellectual dyslexia, maybe? (He's got it the wrong way around.)
Research?
The problem for Trump here is that no one is really paying attention to it. I'd already forgotten about it.
That's right! He's sent seven warships and 4500 troops to the waters off Venezuela, ostensibly for a blockade of drug traffic.
They're also drinking much, much less. I wonder if there's a connection.
Were these just posted, or have they been around for a while?
All so true.... We're at the tipping point in so many ways now, which I why I think the crash will be both soon and severe.
He's fading, and fairly quickly by the look of it (mentally especially). He was beaten up in the courts late Friday. I won't be surprised if he invades Greenland soon in response.
There's no question about it.... But what about his collaborators in Congress? Won't their "power" evaporate when Trump finally keels over? Their constituents probably loathe Vance as much as we do.
It's here, but to most Americans, things still look "normal" when you're out and about (and away from a Nat'l Guard presence). This will change when the Trump Depression finally lands (it will), but by then it may be too late to avert a complete catastrophe. My feeling is it's already baked in.
Clearly, it's getting to Trump (and Fox). Now I'd like to see Newsom (and other governors) start mocking Johnson, Scalise, Emmer, Jordan, and Jason Smith. They're all responsible for keeping Trump in the WH.
I've lost my appetite.
Barron.
I'd like to offer my thoughts and prayers to the unfortunate embalmer who may soon be called into service.
I'm far from silent.
If I said everything I'm thinking about Trump and MAGA, I would be banned from the internet.
They'll buy up all the distressed companies and real estate they've created for pennies on the dollar. I'm afraid the financial mavens out there in the media are afraid to pounce on this possibility. I admit it's a bit out there.
Are they also breaking laws that could result in indictments (when or if Dems are back in charge and they don't pull a "it's time for the nation to heal" bollocks)?
Just like Trump! What a coincidence.
Let's say it's their intent to destroy the economy, a la the Great Depression (it certainly appears to be the case). To what end? How will the oligarchs benefit?
Maybe today will be the day.... Meanwhile, JD is reviewing swatch samples of durable upholstery fabric for the twin sofas in the Oval Office.
The much-debated "AI bubble" appears to be the only thing holding up the economy (and holding off the Trump recession). I suspect it'll soon break (I have no authority to make such a prediction), and we'll begin seeing "downward spiral" featuring in the headlines.
And then we'll deal with his collaborators, hopefully taking a cue from France when WW2 ended, which included shaving their heads and robust mocking and finger pointing.
Absolutely.
All of the evidence is right there. Trump is evil, as are all those who support him. It's not up for debate.
Love.
Is this breaking news? Please say yes.
Spot on.... There are times when I wish I could actually listen to the audio in these clips.
This is like the fifth breaking story as the week closes that gives me hope feels.
As he absolutely should.
Followed all (part of my Labor Weekend outreach).
Early Christmas.
Grok can handle a Kristi Noem image. The Other: LLMs are the wild west at the moment, but I would think "suicide" triggers their filters. Sadly, these stories are becoming normal.
When the grandkids have an overnight, the Alexa in their room plays "Airplane Cabin Noise" (which I use too), and it knocks them out like a Sudafed, not that I've ever tried that route, of course.
I like how this week is wrapping up! Downside: It may mean we're invading Greenland on Monday.
He's slowly making up for censuring Greene.
That's quite an endorsement.
I'll drink to that! I may have to open a new box.
The video showed my old apartment from my fateful year in Boston.... It's a silver lining for students seeking affordable housing, assuming landlords lower rents. That's the only silver lining.
