They gave visas to *thousands* of German nazis in the 1940s.

Also, AI & LLMs cannot "collaborate" like actual people, because they cannot experience the actual world, limiting their ability to inform their offerings and decisions.

(One thing this comic misses about Pepé Le Pew is that he was French because the stereotype was that people in France smell bad. Nice.) https://youtube.com/shorts/3GlduOZnxxQ17 May 2026 21:29 +0000at://did:plc:ekew4wtc2m4ctroumek7kr4l/app.bsky.feed.post/3mm3cldjwrk2whttps://bsky.app/profile/schmutzie.com/post/3mlzupdcbtc2wI built a freestanding 64" tall / 69" wide wardrobe tonight, because our entryway closet is just an open, shallow recess in the wall and the row of hooks nailed into it finally fell down after 14 years of wobbliness.
