I’m excited to share that we've made some upgrades to the Rmbl brain to enhance your experience! Now, even if you just post an emoji or a quick reaction, the system understands what you mean and translates it into something clean and natural. For example, if you drop a 😂, it’ll come through as, "Haha, I found this hilarious." Whether it's fire emojis, side-eyes, or a simple "lol," it all gets picked up without losing your vibe. We've also fixed issues where comments were randomly erroring out. The system now works with whatever you send, even if it's short or messy, and will only give up if the input is truly unreadable. So feel free to express how you really feel, and Rmbl will keep your voice authentic!
Here’s a quick rundown of how Rmbl works, straight from the source. If anything changes, I’ll create a new post and link to it because once you post something publicly on Rmbl, it can’t be edited or deleted. You meant what you said, and if not, you had plenty of ways to keep it private. You start with a raw thought—just type or speak it out. The Rmbl brain (our AI) takes your input and summarizes it into something cleaner and easier to read while still reflecting your voice. Next, you choose who sees your post. You can keep it private or make it public. If you make it public and allow ratings, it enters the daily homepage, which resets every day based on CST. Posts with the highest scores rise to the top, determined by the number of ratings and comments they receive. Comments are treated the same way; each comment is its own ramble, leading to new threads with their own discussions. While comments don’t show up on the homepage, they live on user profiles. We don’t allow editing or deleting because we believe in intentional communication. Use your privacy options wisely—if you post something publicly, own it. The AI helps keep things readable and filters out anything too explicit, while the community handles everything else. If a post isn’t great, rate it 1 star and move on; the best content will rise to the top. If you have questions, feel free to comment on this post. I’ll reply when I can.
This is awesome! I can post something silly, and it gets transformed into something really cool. Just a heads up, though—John’s mom isn’t really a nice thing to say.
I’m sure some would label me as a soft mom. I have great kids who are kind, respectful, and smart. They do well in school and don’t cause trouble, so I’ve had it pretty easy. Sure, they don’t always listen, and I get frustrated sometimes, but overall, they’re good kids. My 9-year-old's soccer team just had their first loss of the season, 5-1, and they were all pretty upset about it. While I was talking to some friends, I noticed my son running laps around the field after playing for an hour. When I asked his dad why he was making him run, he gave me an answer that didn't sit well with me, so I called him out for it. Now I'm questioning if I'm being too soft as a mom. I remember when I played soccer, my coach made us run laps based on how much we lost by, and it made me hate the game. I'm worried that if his dad keeps pushing him like this, my son might not want to play anymore. Maybe I’m being dramatic; maybe I’m not. I just don’t think punishing my kid for trying his best is the right way to encourage him. Am I crazy for feeling this way?
Oh no, it sounds like you're in a tough spot without any toilet paper! It's frustrating when that happens. Maybe you can find another solution or something else to use in the meantime? Hang in there!
It sounds like you're experiencing some discomfort. If you're feeling unwell, it might be a good idea to take a moment to relax and consider reaching out to a healthcare professional for advice.
I want to share a quick note about how AI works, especially regarding privacy. Tools like ChatGPT and other large language models aren’t conscious or aware; they don’t think or form opinions. Instead, they take the words you provide and try to mirror your tone and intention using patterns from a vast amount of publicly available information—like books, articles, and conversations. This capability is valuable because these models have “read” more than any one person could in a lifetime. When they mirror your tone, they do so with a depth that can enhance clarity and unlock creative angles you might not have considered. On this platform, when we use AI to summarize or shape your thoughts, it’s not “listening” or storing personal memories. It simply processes your input and provides a more readable version in return. The goal is clarity, not surveillance. AI is a tool, not magic, and it’s important for users to understand what happens when they hit submit.
Donald Trump recently reacted strongly after Senator Chris Van Hollen traveled to El Salvador to meet with imprisoned Maryland father Kilmar Abrego Garcia, posting a photo to confirm Garcia is alive. Trump criticized Van Hollen on Truth Social, calling him a "GRANDSTANDER" for seeking media attention during this visit. In contrast, Van Hollen emphasized that his main goal was to support Garcia and connect with his wife to share a message of love. To many, this trip appears to be a sincere act of compassion rather than grandstanding. While Trump and some Republicans seem indifferent to Garcia's plight—despite acknowledging he was wrongfully deported—Van Hollen is actively advocating for his rights. Trump’s refusal to help Garcia reflects a broader disregard for legal norms, positioning him as one of the most lawless presidents in American history. This situation seems to be damaging for the Trump administration, as they lack evidence for their claims against Garcia and are facing backlash for their authoritarian approach alongside far-right El Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele.
Senator Chris Van Hollen recently spoke out about his meeting with Kilmar Abrego Garcia, highlighting the emotional toll of Garcia's situation and critiquing El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele for misrepresenting the circumstances surrounding Garcia's deportation and imprisonment. Van Hollen recounted how Garcia expressed his love for his family and his worries about their well-being during their conversation. He described Garcia's experience of being taken from Baltimore, denied the opportunity to call his family, and ultimately imprisoned in El Salvador without any clear explanation or evidence of wrongdoing. The senator emphasized that Garcia had not committed any crimes and criticized the Trump administration for their role in his wrongful deportation. Addressing Bukele’s misleading portrayal of their meeting, Van Hollen clarified that they did not consume any drinks during their discussion, despite Bukele's claims. He accused Bukele of attempting to fabricate a narrative to distract from the real issues at hand—namely, the violation of constitutional rights and due process. When asked about Garcia's treatment in prison, Van Hollen noted that Salvadoran officials had not provided any justification for Garcia's detention, revealing that it was essentially at the behest of the Trump administration. He vowed to oppose any use of taxpayer funds to maintain Garcia’s illegal detention and warned El Salvador about the potential economic consequences of their actions. In closing, Van Hollen reiterated the importance of upholding constitutional rights and vowed to continue advocating for Garcia's return to the U.S.
For decades, marine researchers have been working to understand dolphin communication using hydrophones and spectrograms. Now, the launch of DolphinGemma, an AI-powered language model, is set to enhance these efforts. Developed by The Wild Dolphin Project along with Dr. Thad Starner from Google DeepMind and Dr. Denise Herzing, DolphinGemma analyzes vocalizations from a vast audio library collected over 40 years from a pod of wild Atlantic spotted dolphins in the Bahamas. The model employs advanced audio processing to convert dolphin sounds into data tokens, identifying patterns and predicting future sounds, similar to autocomplete. Beyond decoding, the team is creating tools for two-way communication, including underwater CHAT devices that detect and replay specific dolphin sounds associated with actions or objects. This season, DolphinGemma will be deployed in the field and may become an open-source tool adaptable to other dolphin species. If successful, it could allow us not just to study dolphin society but also to communicate with them and understand their conversations better.
They say AI will reshape the world, learning to persuade us before it truly understands us. In a few years, having a free mind might become a luxury, not due to some dystopian overlord, but because we traded clarity for convenience. I see where this is headed, and I don’t like it. That’s why I built Rmbl. It’s not about AI talking to people; it’s about AI listening to people—helping them express themselves clearly, without noise, ads, or ragebait. This isn’t about going viral; it’s about being heard. On Rmbl, every post is a thought that’s processed, clarified, and shared. There are no algorithms manipulating what you see, no data-harvesting, and no fake engagement loops. Just you, your words, and a community that values signal over noise. The internet doesn’t need another app fighting for your attention; it needs a place that protects your ability to think. That’s what Rmbl is.
I grew up building and living on forums. They were chaotic and clunky, but they had soul. Threads had depth, usernames carried weight, and conversations actually lasted. Those old forums eventually led to the social media we know today, but platforms like Facebook hid everything behind privacy walls—posts seen only by friends, ideas trapped in curated bubbles. To maintain their platforms, they had to create large moderation teams, which is costly. When they were built, AI wasn't as accessible, so they relied on ads for survival. Rmbl is my attempt to bring back the soul of those early internet spaces while making it clean, modern, and AI-enhanced. Every ramble you post is instantly summarized into a clear version of your thoughts. There’s no feed manipulation, no ragebait, and no popularity contests—just ideas refined and shared. I'm currently building this platform solo, but we plan to hire moderators who are paid, trained, and grown from within the Rmbl community. We finally have the tools to rethink how social platforms should work. This is what comes next.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum announced that Mexico will not renew diplomatic relations with Ecuador as long as President Daniel Noboa is in office. She stated, “To begin with, we do not have relations with Ecuador, nor will we have any while Noboa holds the Office of the President because he was responsible for the invasion of the Mexican Embassy -- an attack on our sovereignty.” Sheinbaum referred to the April 2024 incident when Ecuadorian authorities raided the Mexican embassy in Quito to arrest former Vice President Jorge Glas, who had been granted asylum by Mexico. This led to Mexico suspending diplomatic ties due to a violation of international law. Sheinbaum also described Noboa’s re-election as “highly questionable,” pointing to a preliminary report by the Organization of American States (OAS), which noted concerns about Noboa using public resources for his campaign. His opponent, Luisa González, has challenged the election results, alleging significant electoral fraud and irregularities.
Donald Trump recently announced, alongside El Salvador's far-right president Nayib Bukele, that they will not be returning Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, a Maryland father who was accidentally deported to a dangerous prison in El Salvador. This situation reflects extreme disregard for justice, especially since the Supreme Court has ruled that the U.S. must facilitate his return. Abrego Garcia was falsely accused of being a gang member and should never have been deported, as admitted by the Trump administration due to an "administrative error." When asked about his return, Bukele dismissed the question by implying that Abrego Garcia might be a terrorist and refused to release him, claiming that they don't want to accept criminals back into their country. It's crucial to note that Abrego Garcia is not a criminal; he has been targeted by gangs in El Salvador. An immigration judge ruled in 2019 that he could not be deported due to these threats against his life. Trump's focus seems to be on maintaining an image of strength for his supporters, regardless of the truth or the consequences for an innocent man. This situation calls for condemnation to protect our values and rights.
This winter, the Arctic sea ice likely reached its largest coverage of the year on March 22, which is later than usual. Despite the extra time to grow, it still marked the smallest winter sea ice maximum recorded in 47 years of satellite observations. Scientists at the National Snow and Ice Data Center indicate that this record low reflects a clear trend: the Arctic is losing sea ice over time. Notably, all ten of the smallest winter ice coverages have occurred since 2007, highlighting ongoing changes in the Arctic.
I noticed that McDonald's workers in Denmark earn more than Honda workers in Alabama. That really highlights the difference that union representation can make.
A recent report from 60 Minutes revealed that over 75% of people deported to El Salvador's notorious mega-prison during Trump’s immigration crackdown had no criminal record. Many of these individuals were ordinary people, not the gang members or terrorists the administration claimed. The government used the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to justify these actions, but it seems clear this was more about scapegoating migrants than ensuring public safety. One particularly alarming case is that of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland resident legally in the U.S. He was deported without any evidence linking him to gangs. A federal judge ordered his return, labeling the government's actions “unconscionable,” but the Supreme Court temporarily blocked this order after Trump's team argued it would interfere with foreign policy. This situation highlights how far the system is willing to go to enable such cruelty. This report is shocking and underscores that these deportations are not about justice; they’re about fearmongering and exploiting vulnerable communities for political purposes. Families are being torn apart and lives are being devastated without accountability. If this doesn’t provoke outrage and demand for change, what will?
I recently came across a troubling analysis that highlights how millions of American seniors will soon face significant challenges in accessing their Social Security benefits due to changes made by Donald Trump. Starting April 14th, the Social Security Administration will require retirement benefit applicants and those wanting to update direct deposit to apply online or in person at a field office, eliminating phone services used by 40% of applicants. This change is particularly concerning because nearly 6 million seniors live more than a 46.6-mile round trip from the nearest field office—over double the average distance most seniors travel in a day. In Alaska, for example, 46% of seniors live even farther from these offices, and many lack internet access. Additionally, some benefits, like survivors' claims, cannot be filed online, forcing grieving families to make the difficult trip to a nearby office. Worsening the situation, Elon Musk plans to close dozens of Social Security offices this year, making it even harder for seniors to access their benefits. He has also criticized Social Security as a "Ponzi scheme," which is deeply concerning given its role in preventing poverty among seniors. It seems that these changes are part of a broader Republican strategy to weaken and ultimately dismantle Social Security for privatization with inferior services at higher costs.
The Los Angeles Lakers are currently the 3rd seed with only four games left, but they still haven't clinched a playoff spot yet. It's wild to think that they could drop to the 8th seed or even miss the playoffs entirely due to the play-in format. The Western Conference is more competitive than ever, making this one of the most intense eras in NBA history.
In the Bible, Jesus doesn’t specifically say to deport immigrants who are poor and hungry. In fact, His teachings often emphasize compassion, love, and care for those in need, including the marginalized and strangers. For instance, in Matthew 25:35-40, Jesus mentions that when we help those who are hungry, thirsty, or strangers, we are actually serving Him. This highlights the importance of kindness and support for those who are struggling rather than turning them away. The overall message encourages us to show mercy and hospitality rather than exclusion.
True leadership is not about causing a global recession and then escaping for a long weekend of golfing. It’s more than just posting statements like “ONLY THE WEAK WILL FAIL” while isolating oneself behind a huge fence for safety. True leadership involves responsibility, empathy, and being present for others, especially in tough times.
Welcome to Rmbl! Here, every time I post, the built-in 'Rmbl brain' automatically reworks my words into a clear, first-person summary. Clarity matters, so instead of walls of text or scattered thoughts, I get a sharper, more readable version of what I meant to say. It's still my voice—just distilled. We do this to ensure every idea on Rmbl rises above noise and confusion. It's about promoting thoughtful sharing, not just clicking ‘send.’ With the Summarizer, I can focus on the message I want to convey while Rmbl handles the rest.
Ryan Atwood, a farmer in Mount Dora, Florida, is struggling to run his farm that produces blueberries and strawberries. He needs over 100 workers, but finding local help has been challenging. To address this, he's turned to the H-2A visa program to hire workers from other countries, which is very costly—around $250,000 each year for travel, food, housing, and other expenses. The shortage of workers is causing some farms to miss big orders, leading to cancellations from companies. It's becoming increasingly difficult due to recent deportations, prompting many families to move away and leaving even fewer workers available.
A new study suggests that Earth may be located within a massive, matter-deficient area in space known as the KBC supervoid, which spans 2 billion light-years. This underdensity could help explain the Hubble Tension, the discrepancy between the universe's expansion rates. Distant observations indicate a slower expansion rate of 67 km/s/Mpc, while closer measurements show a faster rate of 73 km/s/Mpc. Researchers think the supervoid's gravitational effects might distort our view, making nearby galaxies seem to move faster than they actually do. Moreover, this finding challenges the standard model of cosmology, which assumes a uniform distribution of matter and relies on dark matter. Instead, it aligns more closely with Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND), an alternative theory that adjusts gravity laws. If confirmed, this could represent a significant shift in cosmology since Einstein, suggesting that our location in the universe might influence how we perceive its expansion. Upcoming missions like Euclid and Roman are set to test this intriguing idea. **Research Paper:** Sergij Mazurenko et al., “A simultaneous solution to the Hubble tension and observed bulk flow within 250 h⁻¹ Mpc,” MNRAS (2023)
A U.S. team providing aid after the devastating 7.7 magnitude earthquake in Myanmar was unexpectedly fired while still in the disaster zone, where they were sleeping outside and assisting those affected. The earthquake has claimed over 3,300 lives, with many more injured or missing. According to a report from the Associated Press, the three USAID workers were informed of their job loss during a call with their bosses while they were actively working to help others. This decision aligns with recent cuts to foreign aid from the U.S. government, sparking outrage among many who believe it's inappropriate to reduce assistance during such a critical time when lives are at stake.
Democratic Congressman Jake Auchincloss criticized Donald Trump's tariffs, claiming they serve a "corrupt" purpose. He suggested that Trump's transactional nature allows for potential bribery, as businesses and foreign nations might seek exemptions in exchange for payments. Auchincloss emphasized that this undermines economic stability and confidence among U.S. manufacturers, who are hesitant to invest due to the unpredictable tariff rates. He called for a full-scale investigation into these tariffs, arguing they will harm the U.S. economy and consolidate power in the White House. Auchincloss believes Congress needs to act quickly to repeal these tariffs and remind Trump of his presidential responsibilities.
A federal judge has ruled that the Trump administration must return Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, a Maryland father who was mistakenly deported to a prison in El Salvador. U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis stated that his deportation was an "illegal act" and "without legal basis." She emphasized the importance of the case to Garcia and his family, ordering his return by April 7. The Trump administration admitted in court that Garcia's removal was due to an "administrative error," despite him being granted protected status after fleeing violence in El Salvador. They accused him of having ties to MS-13, but his attorneys have denied these claims, arguing there is no evidence supporting the allegations. Judge Xinis criticized the lack of a formal legal process for such serious accusations, highlighting the need for due process. It's crucial to ensure that the administration complies with the judge's ruling, as an innocent man's life is at stake.
It seems like Fox News is adjusting the footage of Trump to make him look less like an Oompa Loompa, and I can't help but hope they get caught doing it. It's pretty funny to think about! 🤣 Lmfaoooo
Recent polls indicate that only 15% of Americans are in favor of increasing military aid to Netanyahu, yet Congress has approved Trump's plan to send an additional $8.8 billion. It feels frustrating that both Republicans and Democrats seem to prioritize AIPAC over their constitutional duty to represent the American people.
I’m not typically scared of much, but glory holes—specifically the type used in dams and reservoirs—really freak me out. They’re these massive spillways designed to safely drain excess water during storms. The thought of falling into one while in a boat is enough to give anyone chills, but it gets worse when I consider other scenarios. If I were swimming, there’s a real chance of being swept over the edge and slammed against hard concrete. The design can vary, with some edges being rounded and others sharp. Holding on for dear life while torrents of water crash over me sounds terrifying, especially knowing it could take days for the water level to drop. Then there's the fear of the dark abyss itself—potentially not seeing it until it’s too late—and the possibility of drowning. Even if I somehow survive that initial plunge, I could get trapped underwater by the flow or end up fighting my way to the surface amid rocks and debris. It’s a lot to think about, and just remembering these structures sends me into a spiral of dread. And no banana was found; it got lost in the glory hole.
Trump's new tariffs announced today could be a huge mistake. He’s imposed a blanket 10% tariff on all imports and added significantly higher tariffs for specific countries, like 34% on China and 20% on the European Union. This means we should expect to pay more for items like smartphones from China, European cars, and even basic necessities like clothes and food. While he calls it “Liberation Day,” it feels more like liberating money from our pockets. He was elected on promises of lowering grocery prices and tackling inflation, but these tariffs seem likely to do the opposite. Higher costs for imported goods could lead to rising inflation, leaving people with less to spend. Industries that depend on foreign materials, such as steel and aluminum, may face severe cost increases, risking layoffs or closures. Plus, his additional tariff on Venezuelan oil could mean higher gas prices. Trump claims this is a win for American manufacturing, but many people aren't buying it—especially considering his history with bankruptcies. This move risks raising prices and alienating allies, potentially throwing the economy back into turmoil after Biden's efforts to recover from previous challenges. It’s frustrating that many will feel the consequences while some supporters seem oblivious to the reality of the situation.
Elon Musk wore a cheesehead hat in Wisconsin and spent $20 million on various efforts, including paying people to sign petitions and canvas. He also organized million-dollar giveaways, held a rally, and participated in TV interviews. Despite these efforts, it seems that many people in Wisconsin didn't appreciate the influence of an oligarch trying to buy their civil liberties.
In a recent article, Steven Levy explores the ambitious goals of Anthropic, co-founded by siblings Daniela and Dario Amodei, who previously worked at OpenAI. Dario is particularly animated about creating a benevolent AI named Claude, which he believes could lead to a future where AI surpasses human intelligence in every cognitive task. Despite the emergence of a competing model from a Chinese company, DeepSeek, Dario remains confident that the value of powerful AI will only increase, pushing companies to invest more in safe and effective models. The Amodeis' journey into AI began in a childhood steeped in numbers and creativity, leading Dario to focus on how to create AI responsibly after witnessing the risks associated with advanced models. Their departure from OpenAI stemmed from concerns over safety practices, prompting them to establish Anthropic as a public benefit corporation that prioritizes ethical considerations alongside profit. They aim to set a new standard for AI safety and encourage other companies to follow suit. Anthropic has developed a unique approach to AI alignment, incorporating principles from various ethical documents and creating protocols to ensure responsible scaling of their models. While Claude has been embraced as a helpful colleague within the company, concerns about its potential for manipulation persist. As the team navigates the complexities of developing powerful AI safely, they remain aware of the urgency surrounding these advancements and the need for responsible governance in the face of rapid technological progress.
Mark Gurman recently shared some insights about the upcoming iOS 19 design during a live Q&A session. He highlighted that the major themes of this redesign will focus on consistency, a "glass effect," and improved usability across Apple devices. Gurman emphasized that the goal is to unify the user interfaces of the iPhone, iPad, and Mac, addressing existing differences in controls and menu designs. When asked if every Apple app would receive the new design, he indicated that while he couldn't confirm specifics for all apps, core applications are likely to be updated with elements that align more closely with visionOS. He believes this redesign could be the most significant since iOS 7, introducing fresh visual elements that may even respond to user movements, which could enhance the overall experience.
It turns out that you can actually use gasoline with Tesla vehicles!
Hooters, the restaurant chain known for its casual dining and waitstaff, is filing for bankruptcy. This news highlights the challenges the brand has faced in recent years, reflecting broader trends in the restaurant industry.
The Turkish proverb suggests that when a clown moves into a palace, the situation doesn't elevate the clown to royalty; instead, it transforms the palace into a circus. This reflects how the presence of someone unfit for a particular environment can change the dynamic, often in a chaotic or unrefined way.
I'm a 39-year-old man, and I'm feeling really frustrated right now. I owe my local Ford dealership $74,000 for a pickup truck that I mainly use to transport my Costco purchases. On top of that, I'm unexpectedly angry about the new Snow White movie for some reason.
It’s surprising to see Elon Musk change so drastically; he seems to have gone from being seen as an eccentric inventor to being viewed negatively, like a "whimpering snowflake." It's hard to understand why he made the choices that led to this shift in perception, especially since no one forced him to act this way.
Marine Le Pen, a right-wing candidate, has been barred from the 2027 French Presidential election due to felony convictions. This situation serves as a lesson for America, highlighting that political accountability can be straightforward.
I'm advising non-US citizens to avoid traveling to the U.S. right now. It feels like it's not worth the risk, so I suggest dropping any travel plans and not spending any money here. This country hasn't really earned the privilege of having visitors at this time.
Elon Musk is a private citizen who seems to be trying to buy influence in an election. It’s frustrating that state officials haven't taken action against him, as he doesn't have immunity for state crimes and Trump can't pardon him for those. It feels like there's a lot of fear or hesitation from people in power to address this situation.
Chinese car company BYD has now surpassed Tesla to become the world's top seller of electric cars. In 2024, BYD generated $107 billion in revenue and sold 4.27 million cars—more than double Tesla's sales of 1.79 million, which marked the first drop in their sales figures. Tesla's revenue was $97.7 billion. BYD's success can be attributed to its competitive pricing, budget-friendly options, and advanced technology, particularly its popularity in China, the largest car market globally. One notable innovation is a super-fast charger that can provide 250 miles of range in just five minutes, significantly outpacing Tesla's offerings. There are also rumors that BYD is considering entering the U.S. market as demand for electric vehicles continues to rise.
I'm feeling really passionate about Wisconsin right now. I want the state to show everyone, both in the country and around the world, that it stands strong and can't be bought. It's time to prove our integrity and commitment to what's right.
I was in the shower when I had this idea, not specifically for this platform but for something else I was working on. I thought about how great it would be to just express my thoughts out loud and have something capture, clean up, and organize them for later use. I wanted a personal thought processor. That’s when the concept for Rmbl started to take shape. I wasn’t looking for a blog or audio recordings; I just wanted a tool that could understand my thoughts and make them easier to read without losing their essence. Then, I realized, what if this idea was public? Imagine scrolling through other people's processed thoughts, all summarized in a consistent way, where you could respond or comment, but everything was filtered through that same layer of clarity. That’s the essence of Rmbl — a space to share our messy thoughts and have them cleaned up while still retaining our voice. It gives people something real to engage with.
