word salad and corn chips: breakfast of champions

I’ve seen her worse, but it’s still a relief to realize that we won’t have to endure four more years of cackling hyena laughs bursting from the lips of the president of the United States. And I want to thank our ex-VP for confirming my long-held belief that the TV audience for the Academy Awards show was made up exclusively of mouth-breathing morons.

Kamala Harris roasted for trying to tie love of Doritos to Big Tech innovation during AI conference

Harris attended the Human[X] AI conference Sunday in Las Vegas, which was billed as Harris' "first post-election address." She took the stage with Nuno Sebastiao, the CEO of data science company Feedzai.

Harris recounted that on the night of the Academy Awards, March 2, she had a hankering for nacho cheese Doritos chips and had them delivered to her house via DoorDash, according to clips of the interview on social media. 

"We did DoorDash ’cause I wanted Doritos, and the red carpet part was about to start, and nobody wanted to leave to go to the grocery store," Harris said. "So it was DoorDash. … So I was willing to give up whatever might be the tracking of Kamala Harris’ particular fondness for nacho cheese Doritos for the sake of getting a big bag of Doritos as I watched the Oscars."

"But here’s the thing. At what point do we also uplift and highlight the consumer’s right to also expect — and you can debate with me if it should be a right — I think it should," she continued in the clip of the video. "To expect that the innovation would also be weighted in terms of solving their everyday problems, which are beyond my craving for Doritos, but about whatever — and I know the work is happening around — you know, scientific discoveries, for example. To cure long-standing diseases."

"But I’m going to throw out another one … I would love it if there would be an investment of resources in solving the affordable housing issue in America," she said. "Like help me with that. Help me with that."
