Kamala Harris told us that Donald Trump would end our (beloved) democracy and rule as a (hated) dictator. Today she tells us that it will be her “sacred obligation” to certify the end of democracy and the beginning of the hated dictator’s rule:
In case the above is memory-holed:
@philg you should start a podcast in 2025
Although he does have a face for radio his voice is far too annoying and nasally for anyone to tune in.
Thanks, TS. Your opinion on the voice is based on the YouTube lectures linked from https://philip.greenspun.com/teaching/ground-school/ ? Why can’t I use an AI filter to change my voice to something that will have popular appeal?
HR: I don’t like listening to podcasts so I’m probably not on track to create a great podcast. I don’t understand why podcasts are popular. It is possible to read 3X faster than one can listen. It is possible to scroll/skim/etc. with text but it is very tough to find a sought-after excerpt in a 30-minute audio recording. For entertainment when walking a dog or driving, the podcast makes sense in the same way that a recorded book makes sense. But aren’t recorded books more interesting? A lot more effort goes into crafting the words that are part of a book than goes into standard conversation.
Your opinion on the voice is based on the YouTube lectures linked from https://philip.greenspun.com/teaching/ground-school/ ? Yes mostly, but I have only seen short clips never watched the whole course.
Why can’t I use an AI filter to change my voice to something that will have popular appeal? Not a bad idea, however I am not aware of this feature being available right now.
@philg may be something like Joe Rogan style with no smoking and drinking(without these it might not be much fun)
Philip, why do you think this is at risk of being of memory-holed?
Did you think Kamala was going to commit a coup to stop power from going to someone who failed at their coup?
Reminder: by Trump’s logic, Kamala could have declared herself the true winner today.
Everything is at risk of being memory-holed, but particularly this one because it is from @VP and I don’t know what happens to it once the sub-dictatorship of J.D. Vance takes effect.
Kamala Harris didn’t have to start a coup to avoid blessing the incoming dictatorship that she’d previously warned us about. She could have simply called in sick with COVID-19, for example, an all-purpose excuse for any malingerer.
Anybody want to take bets that philg will still be posting about Kamala Harris (and everything and anything about Democrats) 4 years from now, even though they’re no longer in power or relevant?
I hope you’re right about the irrelevance of Democrats in 4 years. But you’re probably wrong.
