Episode 5 is brutal and badass.

Thanks, ChatGPT, for illustrating Radley Fullthorn and also being a little bizarro about it.

And if I download a webp and try to share it, most social media platforms won't use webp so I need to convert them to PNGs or JPEGs.

@ernie
Thank you. So. You're not the boss of how I respond to your posts.
@tedium

@ernie
Social media is 80% decontextualized. 100% out of context via the fediverse or people who dip their toes. Webp is called "modern" compared to PNG, GIF, JPEG so I think it's amazingly relevant, myself.

@ernie
Webp is extremely a pain in my arse but it makes Google happy so whatever

Southern Baptist Convention condemns IVF procedures

https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-southern-baptists-effort-enshrine-ban-women-pastors-falls-short-2024-06-12/

> The Southern Baptist Convention on Wednesday voted at its annual meeting to condemn the use of in vitro fertilization and commend its congregants who use alternative fertility therapies or adopt frozen embryos.

> hosts a lot of malicious actors who want to harm our democracy and freedom.

For fuck's sake, you're literally criticizing the democracy and the freedom by calling the actual democracy and freedom as harming democracy and freedom! Wowzer!

Do it

This quote takes a universal stance by not limiting 'beliefs' to the religious realm. Imposing any beliefs—whether secular, scientific, philosophical, sexual, cultural, climatological, or medical—is an act of persecution. The imposition of such beliefs is as harmful as you perceive the imposition of religious beliefs to be.

It's early days but Google is taking the bait. What, you may ask, is the laid bait of which I speak?

Making everything worse is my obsession in life.

@db8f291dcf949373f5224070cbef4fab80b9a8d3434246aca1fe34114cc51dd0 @djsumdog I did change my name from Chris Maultier (German word for Mule) back to my surname, ABRAHAM so maybe the system didn't like that.

@djsumdog it's a hustle. It's like when old explorers tried to present god like powers to the primitives by saying, "If you don't release me, I will blot out the Sun!" When it's just an eclipse. It's a climate hustle. Even I believe that. I don't think David does. Or, worse, maybe he does! :)

@3hu @djsumdog hubris! I just think it's a "look the sun is getting blotted out! We need to spend all the money to prevent the sun from being blotted out by the moon by god! Spend all the money, get under control, make sure God doesn't anger" kind of cons going on.

People voted for Trump after he admitted he grabbed women by the pussy. Nobody would/does care about Stormy or affairs or lovers or porn stars. If Trump had more time, he'd probably add an OF model to the body count and not suffer for it in the polls.
