Scientific Shot of a Peacock mantis shrimp eyes which are the most advanced in the animal world. Photo by Daniel Sasse.
the mantis shrimp has 16 types of color receptors.
humans have 3.
we see roughly 10 million colors and think that's impressive.
the mantis shrimp is sitting there processing a visual reality so hyperchromatic that scientists genuinely aren't sure what it's like to be one.

Fred Hampton's partner Akua Njeri was eight & a half months pregnant when cops dragged her off the bed she was sleeping next to him on as he lay unconscious from the barbiturates his fed rat snitch fake friend doped him with so other cops could shoot him in the head to death 56 years ago
He was 21

Full offense but this is why the epstein files are so triggering to victims.
"Release the files" is just words to yall.
5 seconds later you'll turn around and say a woman who has chosen to play defense for her husband in them for years was "right about everything"
And not even out of love.

"In 25-Country Survey, Americans Especially Likely To View Fellow Citizens as Morally Bad
53% of U.S. adults say Americans have bad morals and ethics"
God its so interesting that a Pew research poll found that most countries think their fellow countrymen are good people but 53% of Americans think other Americans are scumbags
And, like, honestly? Yeah. I don't think it's our fault, I think it's the hyper-capitalist culture, but...yeah

Any time a cop says "I'm just trying to figure out what's going on here", that cop has already made up his mind as to what's going on and he's already decided on his plan for what he's going to do about it.

These are the 4 things AI can do well:
β’Clean up your email inbox (badly)
β’Give my shittiest neighbor (Alan) something to talk about at a party
β’Tell a 12 yr old to kill himself
β’Incinerate a school at 10:16 AM on a Tuesday
You can see why we need to base our economy around it

The problem with Mullin isn't that he doesn't have a Bachelor's Degree. Lots of very smart people don't have Bachelor's Degrees. And I'd even say you can be smart enough to run a government department without one.
The problem with Mullin is that he's an evil fascist.

There's no reason for Iran to attack NATO nation Turkeyβbut a drone did. Iran denies sending it.
There's no reason for Iran to attack a UK base in Cyprusβbut a drone did. Iran denies sending it.
Now Azerbaijan has been attacked. Iran denies involvement.
I think this is Israel.
