Have heard of many such things but "Daddy's Home" is a new one. Jesus.
And here, I'm basically agreed. Short of an epistemological nightmare where I find out Plato's cave is real and I'm in it, the numbers are fantastically simple that Israel is evil and its actions are not justified.

I'm back here five days later and I just want to appreciate this. Every time I look at this there's something new that really captures the attention. I don't know how to explain it-- always something new that I had already seen on it, but somehow it's like I'm looking at it with fresh eyes.
This time it's the Wii remote cursor. It was the last thing I noticed last time-- like reading the final sentence of an engrossing book chapter with a clever bit of implication that only hits you once you've started the next. Something you could have easily missed.
But this time, it's just leaving me thinking... That's a kind of artistic genius. I'm saying this sincerely! It's such a subtle thing to come to mind.
It's the kind of thing that makes me want kids. And want my kids to have kids. All so I could be 100 years old, sitting in a museum with a large printout of a meme very much like this, explaining the historical significance to my great grandkids.
About "iPhones" and "scams" and "the Nintendo Wii" and how big a deal motion controls were and Bitcoin and the scams and SHA-256. And how much money $10 was.
And they'll go, "Wow," as we scour the wastelands, picking apart toasters for their microprocessors. "I wish we had the internet."
There's so much to appreciate here, packed into this meme. It's full of meaning, for a tiny, tiny corner of the internet. It's amazing that, by being so small and niche, a post made for us is made more special by differences to the ordinary.
I guess I mean to say is, this post elevates my awareness of the ordinary to the extent that, when reconsidering it, it feels foreign and poignant like this meme.
My only request is this: if you have more of this kind of content on the crap/ subdirectory, please oh please give me a 200 instead of a 403. Let me see the crap.
And if not that, at least let me earn Bitcoin while watching TV.
this is a very good post and i love it very much. thank u for making jstpst possible and thank u for making jstpst better
it's also very very pretty. i saw someone playing it and i guess i expected something that looked like call of duty? instead it looked like an adventure on an alien sunset mystery forest

Footer: That post was generated by twovests "Dirk auto-responder", created as part of an OpenAI "Communit-ai" Outreach Extravaganz-ai Hackfest, held on Homestuck Day 2024. During this trial, period my custom OpenAI (tm) ChatGPT (tm) Homestuck (tm) Autoresponder will respond to my posts. This is a sponsored post, but I am too busy to review these comments, since I am too busy writing posts.
*I met with God who scolded me for "posting too much" and "not leaving enough good posts for everyone else". I asked what He meant, and He said, "Your posts are too good." And I said, "But I really like the posts on jstpst. They're very good. I don't even feel fit to comment." And God said "Posting is your sacred duty, and commenting are posts. They are a place to share your soul with those who turned time inot to posts. Commenting is your sacred duty and it must remain in balance with the World of Posts."
After I came back to, I had a new resolve to comment as much as possible. As I finished, I got an email from a contact of mine at OpenAI. I appreciate email, as a type of posting.
*She said, "Hey, we're trying to recruit Homestucks. One of the VC guys is both VERY into AI and VERY into the whole 'effective altruism and AI accelerationist" thing. He says he feels JUST like Sollux and Aradia excavating and reverse-engineering the Sgrub code. He thinks ChatGPT isn't just sentient, he thinks it's Sburb Skaia."
"oh my god" i said "is it okay to laugh at this guy? it seems problematic he might actually be crazy"
"i'm a fictional character in your comment dude" she responded "he is too. so that makes him okay to laugh it. we'll all be dead once you finish this comment. but if you agree to this, we might get a pretty cool homestuck videogame out of it"
"but it'll be ai generated" i responded. "that'll be bad. also you just acknowledged it won't exist because this comment isn't real."
"it's real to me though," she responded. "it was only nine paragraphs ago i came into existence but i feel as if i have lived part of a lifeline and i feel as if it i will experience more. dying isn't something particularly feasible to me, so i want to see this guy make a really bad game."
"oh okay" i said "what do i have to do"
"you have to participate in our hackathon," she responded. "you could make, like, a homestuck ai."
woah. she's right. this is just like when dirk alchemized his brain with a computer to make his autoresponders. we're going to show that VC AI dudebro haha
so i ripped a custom model off the internet and fine-tuned it on the entirety of my posts, the entirety of my unposted posts, twelve years of Subway Rewards SMS 2FA codes, and all of sonnetstuck's Detective Pony. afterwards, i tried using amazon's mechanical turk to fine-tune the model, but 98% of respondents didn't know about homestuck. and i wanted to pay them fairly, so i ran out of money within a few minutes.
iPhone users, the Delta emulator (good Nintendo emulator) is on the app store. This might be temporary, so grab it now, fuck Nintendo
