Insane Clown Posse - Fuck The World.

We can’t just create more 18 year olds on demand,

Well, there’s an easy way to get a lot of 18 year olds, but ICE is making sure that won’t happen.

Parents oughta be like: “Tell us more about these wall people!” and a couple hours later you got a film treatment like “Vengeance of the Wall People with their Eyes Always Open.”

It makes sense now.

I’m glad to hear that. Otherwise we’d be confronted with the possibility of vast factory farms of mature beavers having their “castor sacs” milked daily.

Possibly. But there are several different types of vanilla. Also:

An estimated 95% of “vanilla” products are artificially flavored with vanillin derived from lignin instead of vanilla fruits.

and

However, vanillin is only one of 171 identified aromatic components of real vanilla fruits.

Also you may be amused to know:

In the United States, castoreum, the exudate from the castor sacs of mature beavers, has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration as a food additive,[54] often referenced simply as a “natural flavoring” in the product’s list of ingredients. It is used in both food and beverages,[55] especially as vanilla and raspberry flavoring, with a total annual U.S. production of less than 300 pounds.[55][56] It is also used to flavor some cigarettes and in perfume-making, and is used by fur trappers as a scent lure.

OK, I’ll look at the ingredients.

CORN SYRUP, SUGAR, DEXTROSE, MODIFIED CORNSTARCH, WATER, CONTAINS LESS THAN 2% OF GELATIN, TETRASODIUM PYROPHOSPHATE (WHIPPING AID), NATURAL AND ARTIFICIAL FLAVOR, BLUE 1.

Looks like there is some kind of “natural and artificial flavor” besides sugar and corn syrup. Wat are those? Dunno. Apparently it’s legal to have secret ingredients that are not disclosed unless a Non-Disclosure Agreement is signed.

There’s a distinct flavor

Yeah, when I was a kid, there were like 2-3 difference places I could get soft-serve ice cream from, and at one of them the vanilla flavor was marshmallow-like and it was my favorite.

I don’t have an answer, tho. For all I know, it was just a distinctive type of vanilla.

If you’re recording where everything is shelved (and that’s a big IF, I doubt it’s worth it),

Last summer my cousin worked the night shift stocking shelves at a local “superstore” and yeah, they have some database that printed out sheets telling them where a given pallet needs to be shelved. Dunno about smaller stores.

I think you’re taking heat a little bit unfairly. This is, after all, the MILDLY infuriating community, and it can be a hassle when something stops working for you, even if it’s perfectly reasonable for it to happen.

No way, that’s the guy who said the industrial revolution and its consequences are a disaster for humans.

it has been suggested that ‘the cultural moment belongs to sex robots’ and that ‘sex dolls are along for the ride’ (Ruberg
2022, 24). Nowhere is this more evident than in the ‘sex robot brothel’ controversies
that have materialized across Asia, Europe, and North America over the past two
decades. Despite often self-describing or being described as ‘sex robot brothels’, these
enterprises are typically commercial venues or private residences that rent lifelike sex
dolls by the hour. None of these establishments provide access to existing sex robots –
hyper-realistic silicone sex dolls equipped with robotic heads and accompanying AI soft-
ware.2 Similarly, none but one of these businesses offers the services of human sex
workers despite billing themselves and being billed as brothels – premises where sex
workers engage in sexual services with clients (OED.com).3 A standout business is that
of Cybrothel. Established in 2020 and based in Berlin, Cybrothel provides a unique ‘Ana-
logue AI’ brothel experience wherein customers can rent synthetic sex dolls who are
‘brought to life’ by remotely located voice actresses/sex workers using strategically
placed cameras and speakers (Culley 2023; Hanson and Smith 2024).

If this ever happens to you, it’s important that you act clueless and wary.

HAKKEYOI!!!

so… if we’re going to have AI-generated content, consumed by bots… and then that’s going to be summarized with engagement metrics… why don’t we cut out the middleman and just generate the metrics?

Because your AI companions will want to talk about it tomorrow.

Why don’t they put Wobbuffet in the mix? I bet he’s pretty soft.
