They probably asked chat-gpt if they should add AI to Barbie and were told, “That’s a great idea! You’re right that such an important high-selling product would be improved by letting children talk directly to it.”
Also, can’t wait to jailbreak my Barbie and install llama2-uncensored on it so that it can call Ken a deadbeat shithead.

It’s wildly offensive and arguably shouldn’t have been made. But occasionally, there’s something funny in it.

I always thought it stood for “pepperoni.” So, you’re saying “PET” stands for “Positrons, Endives, and Tomatoes”?

“The Guardian knew these accusations were false, but published them anyway, brazenly trying to capitalize on the tragic and shocking assassination of UnitedHealthcare’s then-CEO, Brian Thompson,” the complaint says.
This isn’t going to get the sympathy points you think it will.

I see you’ve met some of my old coworkers.
- Comment on Kid gave a reasonable answer without all the math bullshit 3 weeks ago:
Are they doing that for every wrong question on every paper? That would take forever!
I work in education in Texas. Yes, they do. And yes, it does. Now, most things are digital, so they have kids make a copy of the Google Doc and then grade that and leave comments on it. But if they have paper assignments, they often leave notes on them. Leaving notes on assignments and tests/quizzes (which is likely what this was) is part of their professional review.
Also, part of their regular professional review is whether or not they’re keeping proper documentation on student behavior. Different tiers of behavioral issues require different documentation/communication. So, not only are they writing notes on tests/assignments, they’re writing documentation on hundreds of students, contacting dozens of parents, creating lesson plans that have to be available in advance for parental review in case any parents want to dispute the materials, and they’re getting regular reviews.
And then, when all the kids are off enjoying summer, the teachers are working their summer job to supplement their shitty pay. And they’re going to mandatory “Professional Learning” courses to keep their teaching certification, some of which they are required to pay from their own pocket to attend.
In San Antonio, we don’t really have any “small” districts, so the numbers in the second paragraph assumes an elementary school of 300-600, middle school of 800-1200, or high school of 1200-2000 students.

- Comment on NYPD robocops: Hulking, 400-lb robots will start patrolling New York City 3 weeks ago:
In your defense, it’s a coke-fueled nightmare with so many story points that it can easily be confused for 3 separate movies.
In offense to me, I think the remake has a better foundation and better acting and only suffers from trying to appease a wider audience.

It’s like RoboCop, except the robots are villains helping human villains villain more comprehensively.
Ummm… That’s exactly the plot of RoboCop…

Nah, I get what you’re saying, but we’re used to engineers and regular workers getting arrested here. We’ve got one of the most… comprehensive?.. prison systems in the world. It’s just so rare to find executives and anyone making over $300k suffer any real consequences.
- Comment on Limiting access to COVID boosters 4 weeks ago:
During the pandemic I kept hearing, “the gov shouldn’t tell us to wear masks” and “the gov shouldn’t mandate basic healthcare choices.” A handful of years later we won’t even be able to decide for ourselves whether or not to take basic precautions.
It’s never been about self-choice. It’s always about whatever will make people they don’t like feel bad.
