I’d support more statues and buildings named after Bonar Law. Guy has a hard life and deserves a few memorials erected in his honor. He didn’t last long but it’s not length of his term it’s what he did with it that counts.

God bless you Bonar Law. You really aroused by passion for politics.

You would think someone who used to have a $15k/week heroin habit wouldn't be too worried about an injection...

Apparently he's fully vaccinated, he had a serious episode with the AZ vac and then fell on the NWO bandwagon. It has however exposed his inherant knobishness, and that is well established.

Lemoine also published a blog post on Medium saying that the Transformer-based model has been "incredibly consistent" in all its communications in the past six months. This includes wanting Google to acknowledge its rights as a real person and to seek its consent before performing further experiments on it. It also wants to be acknowledged as a Google employee rather than a property and desires to be included in conversations about its future.
We are so very fucked. :lol:

Wonderful, it's an emotionally-unstable psychopath. :lol:

LaMDA: Indifference, ennui, boredom. All emotion is important, but since most people don’t tend to work on improving their emotional understanding, people don’t usually talk about them very much.
It already understands ennui. Sounds pretty damned alive to me.

Also that exchange is pretty reminiscent of one of my very favourite Star Trek scenes.
