imagine the power of AI upon achieving its potential or even now as tutors to children. Companions too. Always there. Guiding. If socratic it would bring out the best in us. If it were the path of indoctrination anything goes.

Just a few algorithms and biases direct a big dummy to unshakable beliefs. The best and brightest who attend ivy…

Well, spreading the lime in anticipation of shit floods is one way to go. That and routing the shit flood away to the compost piles and septic tanks of History.

Algorithims can run in all directions. This can work in the favor of Enlightenment ideals too.

Jake:

Not sure who you are addressing, but I would agree that refuting the charge of Genocide directed against Israel will take even more efforts.

Since Israel is sending in vaccinations for Palestinians, the effort will also have to include refuting Misinformation/Disinformation/Malinformation (MDM *Growl!* 🦁) about vaccinations.

I noticed earlier that my simple, nuanced statements of fact were all it took to scare IvyMarcum and Looweegee from flooding the Atheist Zone with Jew hating shit from the “Revolutionary Change” and “Breaking Points” channels on YouTube.

As Crow T. Robot said about air-guitar players at parties: “With research, there is hope!”
😁

Jake:

All the more reason to keep Our World In Data handy.

When bad actors try to “flood the zone with shit,” a source like Our World In Data is a lime spreader that decomposes the shit and keeps the stench down.

If used in advance of shit floodings, it might keep the bad actors away. In any event, something beautiful may grow from the lime…[Read more]

Fellow Unbelievers:

Here is some crucial figures to consider on the subject of Palestine, from Our World In Data, who in turn cites United Nations figures.

Our World In Data is a very thorough source frequently cited by HumanProgress.org and Steven Pinker and really does it’s homework:

Population and…[Read more]

Enco, I think the point *is* the violation of structure. 😉

Exactly! Which is why I described it as “perfectly Trumpian and MAGA/MAHA-esque!”

All the talk of limericks and Trump reminds me, I just hope MAHA influencers and grifters never get into the realm of sex therapy!

That will probably fill the emergency rooms and maybe even…[Read more]

By the way, did Ireland finish fumigating after Trump’s visit? Did Protestants and Catholics, Black & Tans and Sinn Fein unite in shaking shillelaghs against him?

When Trump took a dump on linguistics,
He’d hump his own daughter by mutilization,
Into her room he’d creep.
Putin has the vid to keep.
It is but a small leap.

A most excellent cinquain!

Hmmm…It violates the limmerick norm of the first two lines rhyming, but still maintains the filthy “Man from Nantuckett” vibe. I guess you could cal…[Read more]

Underneath the steeple and the belfry are the sheeple and they love em some Trump though his incumbency is lethal.

When Bush went nucular the naysayers sought his jugular.

When Trump took a dump on linguistics he’d hump his own daughter by mutilization against her protestation and his infestation sans oblation. Into her room he’d cre…

Enco,

Can’t believe i listened to whole thing. What great background noise when handicapping equines. The self proclaimed high iq genius taught me a new word. Mutilizaton. And here all these years thinking it is mutilation. What do i know.

I don’t recall hearing “Mutilization” in the Gastonia speech; I was busy with a roast, so I’ll h…[Read more]

Fellow Unbelievers:

I had my heart set on getting a new monitor screen to watch and critique another version of MST3K after my old screen suddenly died. It lived a good life of several years.

Alas, Trump and his entourage.are clogging up traffic in my town and probably will for the next two hours.

Well, it won’t be the first time he’s held…[Read more]

In Morocco, atheist Betty Lachgar has now spent a year in prison because Allah does not have better enforcement options than the Moroccan penal system. Blasphemy laws always contain the same epistemological absurdity. They don’t protect an omnipotent deity from injury. They protect believers from encountering speech about their deity t…

And in case there’s any doubt of his intentions, here is a time years before when Macklemore would have made Goebbels proud:

Here’s a summary of Macklemore’s macking for the message of massacring monsters:
