      • …it’s too plausible that the term doctored came up when talking about how to spin it…maybe the idea was to say the prompt was about bringing healing or something…but he brain farted the doctor thing

        …& if she’d tried for “this is a doctored narrative”…it might have held up for at least an hour?

        LEAVITT: The meme is doctored.47: The meme is doctored because I am a doctor in it. I am doctoring there, making my friend Jeff well with light from my hand because that’s what I do, make people well, like with Covid, I said use light, or bleach, you know that. That’s doctoring. It’s what I do.

  1. “Hello, My name is Dr Perceptron… how may I, snicker, help you?”

    Pretending to be a chatbot is both fucking hilarious and cruel. Hilarious to those who use Chat GPT for superficial ego glazing/stroking/masturbation and horrible to those who are desperate of some actual help and companionship.

  2. so.. just came across a youtube video about the mickey d whitehouse thing.. (farron balanced if anyone cares…i dont like him too much as hes shouty..but whatever)

    and theres loads of comments saying the door dash lady is a paid actor seent in other videos…and thats great and all…

    but not one what questions a door dash delivery….direct to the president?….in the whitehouse?

    oh yeah…of course delivery people can just walk in…. this is a free country…
    lmao
