This in the style of Taylor Swift:

So I broke up with Alice over a long conversation that included an hour-long primer on evolutionary psychology in which I explained how natural selection had built me to be attracted to certain features that she lacked. I thought she would appreciate this because she had previously expressed admiration for detailed honesty. Now I realize that there's hardly a more damaging way to break up with someone. She asked that I kindly never speak to her again, and I can't blame her.

The urge to stuff into a locker is overwhelming.

tbh, one thing I'm tired of from the internet, is exactly the post-ironic conflation of "just kinding but also sincerely" as wit. It's actually quite old (mid-late 2000's) and frequently a vehicle for the most vile views on the internet. And it's not clever.

My thanksgiving was drama-free (blurring the distinction between pleasant and boring) and just now finding what was going down here. 😭

They should update their structure page and strike stuff like this:

The for-profit would be legally bound to pursue the Nonprofit’s mission, and carry out that mission by engaging in research, development, commercialization and other core operations. Throughout, OpenAI’s guiding principles of safety and broad benefit would be central to its approach.

And maybe a good ol' IRS audit to boot. From this vantage, it looks like a structural coop.
