In a statement to the media, Paxton, a Republican, called the ruling “ridiculous” and “not based on the facts or the law.” He also said that his office intends to appeal the ruling.

Sure, I won’t say anything further. The original post was about common morals that you may disagree with and now we’re in pragmatics, no reason to continue

That’s absolutely true, and as I said, I’m not a professional and I would never claim to be, and would never want someone to end their life if they could be helped (probably every person who would regret it). That being said I think there is a social stigma of “don’t do it because what would happen to [x]”? I’ve had close friends that ended their lives and the focus after was on who it affected rather than why or how they got there and why they didn’t get help. Additionally our society is built on a system of “work to live” which can certainly be crushing to those who already feel crushed. Hopefully we can do better in the future.

Assuming they’re joining those meetings in person instead of from their mansions/yachts/private jets now that they’re afraid of catching that blue shell

I mean the OP was also named “goated” and their account is less than a day old. Let the children throw sand in their sandbox

Edit: realized you’re responding to the other person. Their account is less than five days old. Comment stands

Like Facebook, which boomers are addicted to and lap up every bit of misinformation years after telling their kids “not to believe everything they read on the internet”

Yeah exactly. Good luck convincing them this wasn’t some “joe and the ho” plot that they so easily ate when russia spent billions on social media telling that the dems were coming for their money so they could put Krasnov in power to destabilize the west.

Agreed. The idea that you owe people your life is pretty nuts. At the end of the day, you can be robbed of everything, including your life. But it’s the one thing you’re not allowed to end. In a perfect world I do think that people who are suicidal should both:

(a) have to discuss their suicide with a trained professional. What does this look like? Idk. But probably along the lines of “are you capable of healing / can we heal what is causing these thoughts or no?”

(b) be able to get professional euthanasia. No pain, someone to be there with them through the process. Not just a sterile room where you go to die, but a place you are going to leave your pain behind and move on

If there is an afterlife, hopefully they find peace there.

While I agree with the sentiment, you’re comparing the New York State Education system with two private for-profit Ivy League colleges. Every for profit Ivy League college will capitulate. The bigger question is if other State Education departments turn down federal funding in the interest of better serving the public

Who the fuck needs anything related to AI on WhatsApp?

Well then do either one instead of just loudly proclaiming you might do something

I too quoted the article. My statement was more general rather than just “this one racist couple should have been charged more.” Of course they paid in cash, likely with pennies to cent to ensure that their racism didn’t allow the server to get a dime.

Oh shit I saw a trailer of that and it looked great, I didn’t know it was Mike Judge. Makes me want to watch it all the more now

For reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVL918qZg2k

Edit: I watched it. It’s fantastic. Highly recommended

Here’s hoping they can find all the backdoors that Big Balls or whatever put into all the government software to funnel money or accelerate the collapse or whatever if/when sane people once again are in control.

Ortiz then removed the 18.5 percent gratuity that was automatically included, which the receipt states can be done if the customer alerts staff.

Fuck that. If you write a racist message, you should be charged double gratuity

Unfortunately I’m sure the credit card company wouldn’t give a shit and would issue a chargeback

“The new trend ‘Vibe Governing’ is sweeping the nation as lawmakers just ask racist AIs with no knowledge of the bills they’re actually writing”

I think OP meant irony. The irony that we’re at a point where zionist/imperialist militaries are communicating on a nazi-owned platform using stolen AI art styles about war when the style was developed by someone vehemently against war/imperialism in their creations. The irony is palpable on each and every level.

I’m unsure if this is also an April fools joke

Yup. Like having to re-break and reset a bone that didn’t set correctly. Technically it healed, but it healed in the warped way it was left, and to bring it back to normal you basically have to walk it through its trauma again and let it heal the correct way.

Oh wait, the “Department of Grift Everyone” is doing exactly that?
