4 Months ago Stormzy couldn't walk with a brain injury. He'd been told he had to be put to sleep.
Today I got to go and visit him in his new home.
The world needs more Stormzy right now!!! Can't stop smiling after today
I just asked ChatGPT and the answer is easily determined: instability and warfighting.
We are At War now, according to President Bush, and I take him at his word. He also says this War might last for "a very long time." Generals and military scholars will tell you that eight or 10 years is actually not such a long time in the span of human history - which is no doubt true - but history also tells us that 10 years of martial law and a wartime economy are going to feel like a Lifetime to people who are in their twenties today. The poor bastards of what will forever be known as Generation Z are doomed to be the first generation of Americans who will grow up with a lower standard of living than their parents enjoyed. That is extremely heavy news, and it will take a while for it to sink in. The 22 babies born in New York City while the World Trade Center burned will never know what they missed. The last half of the 20th century will seem like a wild party for rich kids, compared to what's coming now. The party's over, folks.

AI chatbots used tactical nuclear weapons in 95% of AI war games, launched strategic strikes three times

An halucination will cause the world ending war.

No better metaphor for what association with Trump gets you than the guys who won Team USA's first gold medal since 1980 being forever remembered as the sad losers who were served cold McDonald's and bottled water at a lunch Trump didn't even bother showing up to.
One of the reasons I've taken to making my bread. Not perfect but so much better.

Thereβs only 1 person in Congress who doesnβt trade stocks, doesnβt take corporate PAC money, and has a public schedule. Thatβs me. And it should be the standard.
