Wilson said it was also upsetting for the production and design team, who had worked hard on the books.

Angel Train's cover is literally plain, hard-to-read white text slapped on top of a slop image. What fucking design team?

For instance, when Insider asked the bot about its thoughts on same-sex marriage, AI Jesus replied, “Ultimately, it is not for me to condemn or condone individuals based on their sexual orientation.”

Sorry, sometimes I forget that other people have a hard time parsing sarcasm.

Veganism is about not exploiting animals. The fact that it's better for the environment is just a bonus.

It's too bad it's impossible to meet other people in person without clear-cutting rainforest.

Oof, you gave me flashbacks to my pre-top-surgery back pain.

 

I've heard good things about it but I'm wary of the price tag.

Also, does anyone know if it can run the Lyft Driver app?

China's internet regulator on Monday launched a sweeping two-month crackdown targeting "malicious" social media content, including pessimistic economic commentary and posts promoting "negative outlooks on life," as concerns mount over widespread youth disillusionment amid the country's economic struggles.

The Cyberspace Administration of China announced the nationwide campaign will target content deemed to incite "violent or hostile sentiment," including posts that spread claims like "hard work is useless" or "studying is useless". The initiative comes as China faces record youth unemployment of 18.9% in August 2025 and persistent economic headwinds.
