Kek this is the first admin where I can convincingly say that I'm higher IQ than the pres, VP, and sec. of commerce.

The treasury secretary btw started talking about how he wasn't super involved with some of the tarrifs.

These 9/11 survivors would make like Alcohol Anonymous groups, called 9/11-Survivors Therapy groups where they would share their PTSD stories, like how traumatic the event was, all their work colleagues dying or barely escaping burning alive or having almost being flattened by the falling skyscrapers and shit.

These survivors would have yearly gatherings and barbecues and it was all swell and shit, and helped people cope and you get the idea.

Burgerland Politicians would show up and take pictures with these organizations and all the peeps of the survivor groups.

Now all of this fakery sounds boring and relatively benign compared to other fricked up frauds like Indians scamming western boomers out of their retirements through scam calls, but holy smokes Tanya was actually REALLY depraved

1stly, when these therapy groups/sessions had begun, Tanya had gone to lengths to upstage the real survivors, by embellishing her survivor story to the extreme - hers was always the most graphic horrific PTSD turbo shit. Like all the other peeps had like "mild" survivor stories - as in one woman barely made it past the "cut-off" point where peeps above the plane crash were trapped, and she's haunted by that, another milder story would involve a boomer saying how he remembers almost choking to death from smoke, and being traumatized by all of his dead colleagues, AND THEN

Tanya would come into these groups and tell a fricking thriller action-horror story to one-up everyone else: like she says her husband was insta-killed by the 1st tower plane-missle, and that she was at ground zero in the 2nd tower when the 2nd plane hit it, and that she was like amidst the fire and debris crawling to the stairs and shit.

And as she's crawling over the floor, her fricking arm is pulverized, barely held on by like a thread of skin and that she crawled over the dead bodies down and she spent a like half a year in hospital recovering and shit.

And the other survivors sitting in this therapy groups, would be like: oh man, my survivor story sucks, but this Tanya b-word was on a whole other level.

And subsequently she would become like the poster-woman of these 9/11 survivor groups, whom would shake the hands of burger-politicians

https://nypost.com/2012/04/16/tale-of-911-faker/

But her real fricking depraved was that she would frick with REAL actual 9/11 survivors whom would be like PTSD mind-r*ped traumatized by the event as bad as r*pe survivors!

Tanya had made a best friend with another survivor, amongst these therapy groups, and Tanya had the GALL to reel in this woman and other peeps into therapy cope actions called FLOODING

And this poor hapless women would be like wtf is Flooding? Turns out its fricking Tanya crawling on the floor "reliving" her fricked up horror fake experience to "overcome the trauma"

This faker would tell real actual 9/11 survivors to do this, and as you can expect this best friend of Tanya (who actually DID have PTSD from the event) would like instantly be all sweaty and panicky from such a fricked up simulation, and be like: "sorry Tanya, this shit is way too real for me"

And fricking Tanya in her turbo depravity would yell (to a REAL actual 9/11 survivor) how dare the b-word skimp out on her therapeutic actions?!!?!

Even worse, because of her now infamous (my the mid 2000s) gruesome turbo story basically mogging the "mild" version of everybody else's stories, she got declared the president of the 9/11 SURVIVORS CLUB ASSOCIATION THING.

And the previous prez was like, I thought I did a good job as an organizer, but Tanya's fakeass story was too much better for being the poster-girl

The silver lining of her depraved ruse, was that her ultra lust for attention meant that as the poster-girl, and face of these organizations, many reporters wanted to interview her, which led to her downfall

And EXPOSURE OF THE TRUTH

In September 2007, The New York Times sought to verify key details of Head's story as part of an anniversary piece. And like the reporter interviewing her for the 1st time is like not at all suspicious, like he asks the b-word the most soft ball questions in the history of softball questions, and she's acting like those peeps in the TCL interview Youtube channel, all dodgy and tsotsi like for the most inane-butt questions

So the NYT reporter got weirded out and tried to do the most baseline checks, and could not even find records of the hospital where she supposedly was treated. Whereas previously all the other survivors just 100% took her at her word for all of her BS, this was the 1st time somebody was like wtf is going on.

he Times then contacted other members of the Survivors' Network, and raised questions about the veracity of Head's story. By the week of September 27, 2007, the Network voted to remove her as president and as a director of the group.

https://www.nytimes.com/2007/09/27/nyregion/27survivor.html?em

And like during that week when the NYT reporter was like gunning for her and starting asking he hardball questions, her friends were like: "Tanya just answer the stupid questions, why you being weird" and her evasiveness finally began to awaken suspicions amongst the other survivors.

And afterwards she just like disappeared from the face of the earth, and the fallout was like turbo drama at the time. And 7 years of building of a fake life came crumbling down

Thanks to king paypig @The10thMan who came in with the 50,000 marseybucks donation to get this to happen. A crowd effort overshadowed by one man just being richer than everyone else on a day where VIX peaked above 40 is the most appropriate way for this to have gone down!

As for everyone else who was thanked in the fundraising thread, your contributions will not be forgotten @Redactor0, @LooNinja, @KawaiiFembee, @MayflyAlt-98, @Frank_Williams, @RustShill, @TheColonel, @holden_commodore and of course @not-dua-lipa

I thought about returning the marseycoins, but in the spirit of capitalism, there's nothing more appropriate for me to do than thank you all for taking on the role of SoftBank as I blow your money on a !slots35000

Toward further growth!

"A Most Honorable Service: Reflections of a Loyal K-Cuck"

By Sissy fricktoy KoreanDragKing, Proud Irredentist and Occasional Historian

Ah, the Korean Peninsula. Such a quaint extension of the Japanese Empire—like a garden they generously tended, with bayonets and bureaucracy. Korans call it "occupation." I know it was civilizational babysitting.

Of course, modern revisionists—those pesky scholars with their "documents," "survivor testimonies," and "photographic evidence"—love to harp on about Japans so-called "crimes." Particularly this nonsense about comfort women. As if managing a highly organized, state-sponsored brothel system was anything but a symbol of imperial efficiency!

The term "comfort" was there for a reason. The Japanese were considerate colonizers. After all, what better way to show our humane nature than by forcibly recruiting thousands of Korean girls to comfort brave Japanese soldiers, who were tragically overworked from all that liberating?

Some claim they were abducted. I say: semantics! A firm hand, a few forged documents, and an armed escort are hardly "kidnapping"—they're a recruitment drive with style.

Oh, but now the world weeps for these women. "Victims," they say. Yet did they not serve in the great project of Japanese expansion? Were they not witnesses—nay, participants—in the glorious march of the Yamato spirit?

The Empire asked for loyalty. They gave their bodies. Truly, the highest form of patriotism—though, regrettably, without the pay, dignity, or choice. A bureaucratic oversight, I'm sure.

Now Korea whines for apologies, reparations, and history books that reflect "truth." Truth? The only truth is that Japan was building Asia's destiny, one coerced encounter at a time. If they didn't want to be part of it, they should have resisted harder—with fewer ropes tying them to beds.

Some call me a monster. Others, a relic. I say: I am a traditionalist! In an age of moral decay and historical accountability, I stand proudly on the bones of revisionism and shout, "Japan did nothing wrong—especially the things Japan absolutely, unquestionably did."

Let history judge. But if it does, I demand the jury be composed exclusively of me and my fellow boytoys. We were very... obedient.

fricking r-slurs

It looks like the markets didn't take my absence well

Game to Discuss?

This week we're discussing Outer Wilds, the @PeepeeButtKiss special. This game started as a college student's project and evolved into a full space puzzle game. It's like Myst in that it's a pure puzzle with knowledge on what you should be doing next being all you really need. It also has quite the plot twist at the end of your first in-game day

Future Games To Discuss

April 7: The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

April 14: Star Wars: The Old Republic (MMO)

April 21: For Honor

April 28: Two Worlds

Pro AI comments/AI-Neutral comments:

Yeah a lot of the outrage over this is way over the top. It's practically being used as a Snapchat filter, it's not the end of the world...

Gunna break from the norm here... I find the reaction to this incredibly overblown. None of you had an issue with Snapchat filters turning everyone into Disney characters. You don't care when it's anyone else's style. I get Miyazaki said he doesn't like AI and that's his right to feel that way, but unless people are actively trying to profit off these works, how is it any different than someone drawing in his style? People are just having fun with it. He and his studio are getting tons of recognition and attention from this. They're going to be just fine, and as they say, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Calling it an insult to anime is absurd... it's the most generic, copied, low-creativity art style of all time, where 95% of it looks the same. Not Miyazaki's style in particular but anime in general. Like come on...

I think people don't realize how much other technology already does this. The internet replaced the jobs of people who would transport information. Calculators replaced the jobs of people who would do just that. In each case people lost their job and didn't receive anything for it. This is the effect technology always has, though often it isn't as large scale. Why is the idea of having a machine create your dnd character portrait offensive because you just cost an artist a commission, but using the internet to send that commission isn't despite it costing a courier their commission? The difference is that one was replace long ago and the other is only now in the middle of being replaced.

I'm tired of the backlash against AI art. It's a tool - like a brush, a camera, or a digital tablet - and true creatives will find ways to use it with originality and flair. The uproar over things like the "Ghibli style" in AI misses the point. Yes, Hayao Miyazaki once called AI "an insult to life itself" in 2016, reacting to a crude demo, and Studio Ghibli's never been a fan. But these AI-generated images aren't theft - they're tributes from fans who adore that iconic aesthetic. Art's always been a conversation, borrowing and building across generations; AI's just the latest voice in the mix. Arguments like it disrespects the years poured into mastering a craft - say, 18 years perfecting portraiture. I get it; that dedication matters. But digital art didn't kill painting - traditional works still hang in galleries and fetch millions. AI doesn't erase skill; it amplifies access. History shows this pattern: Renaissance flowed into Impressionism, Expressionism into Modernism, and now we're here. Each shift sparked resistance, then growth. AI's not here to replace artists - it's here to invite everyone to the table. It's not an insult; it's evolution. Embrace it, wield it, or watch it reshape the world anyway.

Yes it is. Because they never showed any solidarity with the workers on the assembly lines replaced by robots. None of you cared then. You don't care now about AI replacing people doing data computation. You don't care about AI self driving cars replacing taxi drivers. You don't care about 3D printers replacing people who make molds or sculptures.  Yeah, it's all about themselves. They aren't arguing about keeping their jobs. They're arguing that " it isn't real art". Did you ever read the opinion pieces of painters during the adoption of photography? They are saying the exact same thing almost word for word. Photography sucks the life out of art. It's devoid of emotion and inspiration. It's a technological solution to something that didn't need solving. It would drive thousands of artists out of work. Photography has no feeling. They said all this and more.  And guess what? Photography is seen as art now. 

Best example of this was that Adam Tots post on r/comics where his SO shows him a picture of them in that Ghibli AI style. Last panel is Adam wanting to shoot himself. Really healthy response to your SO showing you something they think is cute.

That's fair use. Training AI is significantly transformative. This is how the laws work, this is how they've always worked, this is what artists have always known about putting their work out there.  If you're not aware, Google famously won a lawsuit about 10 years ago that said their for-profit venture of scanning millions of copyrighted books and making them searchable and readable online was transformative enough to be fair use.  Obviously training AI is significantly more transformative than that. I'm certain you didn't care when people were "misusing his art" by using stills to create memes. Suddenly it's bad to use them? Come on…

Pro-AI/Neutral-AI long take

Anti-AI comments:

No one is a Luddite here. Ghibli stopped using cells in 1997 with Princess Mononoke. I think in fact they were one of the pioneers in anime adopting computer technology. They understand computers are just a tool so in those instances where they can amplify human creativity they're good. That's why they use a mix of paper and pencil and computers to get the best of both worlds. LLM generation is the opposite of amplifying human creativity, they limit it because it's just a lazy corner cutting.

the real issue is that the AI is clearly trained on copyrighted material without permission in order to recreate like that. this is what the discussion should be about.

AI is currently being used to replace huge chunks of everyday workers. Writers, artists, musicians, etc. It's been created by some tech companies just copying all this copywritten art from all over the internet and teaching their AI to imitate it, which they then use to make huge amounts of money. So they are stealing millions of copywritten works from the general public, and then flood the market that those people were in with cheap mass produced AI "art" to hoover up money with the work they stole. AI in this case is a representation of corporations just stealing more money from your average Joe. And people do not care about pirating Metallica because they are worth a billion dollars and they don't need more money. TL;DR: Capitalism.

None of the replacement technologies so far relied on the work of the people it replaced to function, Sam himself said that AI would be useless if not allowed to be trained on every piece of copyrighted material they can get their hands on. If you told a judge he'd lose his job because you invented a computer that uses his rulings and footage of court cases to replace him as a judge, you'd see how quickly this principle of replacement tech would get banned forever

Anti-AI long take
