POST tiktok ban thoughts

I'm so glad everyone's aware that this entire shitshow was a PR stunt. It 100% had to be. This was 100% done to make Trump look better. 100% done to try and egg on a redwave, 100% to make the government look better. ESPECIALLY after Luigi Mangione did what he did. Of course the government wants you to trust it, people keep speaking out. That whole ordeal was ABSURD. It was like dangling a carrot in front of a donkey. Because remember ! If they were really going to ban Tiktok for "stealing information", they would've banned EVERY Chinese based app that outsources to America. This was done to get you to put more trust in the government, and get you to put trust into TRUMP specifically. Yeah he "saved Tiktok" but remember he is a criminal. He is planning to carry out shit throughout the U.S and he does not respect you. He does not respect your rights, or your citizenship. Right now there's a lot of shady shit happening within the government, I don't doubt at ALL and feel STRONGLY that this was done as a distraction from things that are happening that you might not even know about. (The drones constantly going over my apartment is driving me a LITTLE crazy, so this is where that sentiment comes from). People crashing out over an app being banned was genuinely embarrassing too, because I mean.. hello?? Did you think it was actually going to be banned? It's the BIGGEST app in the WORLD. Do you think the U.S is letting that go?? Sidenote too, the Tiktok unban "pushing" people to Rednote REALLY brought out the racism in people. Like.. holy shit, no wonder people outside of America hate us

Y'all I know that when so-called AI generates ridiculous results it's hilarious and I find it as funny as the next guy but I NEED y'all to remember that every single time an AI answer is generated it uses 5x as much energy as a conventional websearch and burns through 10 ml of water. FOR EVERY ANSWER. Each big llm is equal to 300,000 kiligrams of carbon dioxide emissions.

LLMs are killing the environment, and when we generate answers for the lolz we're still contributing to it.

Stop using it. Stop using it for a.n.y.t.h.i.n.g. We need to kill it.

If that doesn't have potential for some fairytale nonsense, I don't know what does.

honestly if in like 2012 you had told anyone that dick Cheney and Taylor swift had both endorsed the same candidate for president and that person was a Democratic woman of color and she was running against reality tv star Donald Trump they would have asked what shitty adult cartoon episode you were referencing

I don’t think we, as a fandom, discuss how absolutely WILD it must have been for Tim to switch from idolizing Dick to having him literally being his brother who will casually chug a gallon of milk just to prevent Tim from getting any.

Like personally if fucking Zendaya or like Orlando Bloom showed up at my house and started treating me as a sister I would get WHIPLASH

magic system where “dark magic” and “light magic” are literal terms - dark magic consumes photons, making an area around the spell visibly darker, sometimes to an Extreme extent, and light magic releases photons.

because of this most dark mages tend to work in very brightly-lit areas (either artificial light or outside in the daytime) to fuel their spells and wear and use lightly coloured clothes and tools so that they’re easier to see in the dimness their spells create, whereas light mages wear heavy, sometimes leaden robes (depending on the work being done) and the magical equivalent of welding masks to protect themselves from what can be an extreme amount of light, and sometimes other kinds of electromagnet radiation!

needless to say this is incredibly confusing for anyone unfamiliar with the culture
