But imagine if you had 30 hours extra a week to build things, play with your children, read great novels, help a neighbor…

Just be yourself. Or the algorithm will be it for you.

I’d rather commit seppuku than get an AI summarization of a great novel #booksky

There is no person, business, sports team, or celebrity that can outspend the U.S. military

Never have heroes unless they died one.

The global economy is dependent on advertising products that the majority of people won’t be able to afford. Where I’m from that’s called a house of cards.

It’s 2026 and being bored is now a luxury.

I hate calling them elites. The dragons that hoarded wealth may have been magnificent, but they were still monsters.

Why are the best posts that you want to respond to always grayed out?

#AI cannot approximate 4 billion years of evolution and a soul that’s been to the bottom of the darkest pit and stood at the highest peak.‬ It shows you a heap of broken images. I can show you beauty in a handful of dust.

I invented a time machine in my garage. Does anyone want to go back to the 90’s?

In my experience, smaller businesses: Get more creative Take more risks Have more fulfilling jobs I get why big businesses command more market share, but why do they deserve more mental market share as well?

I think one of the greatest crimes of the modern age is that we've lost this sense of destiny.

Sometimes it really gets to me. The knowledge that we spend all this time trying to make all this money, when in a blink of an eye we’ll be gone from this earth. Look how fast the years go by now. It’ll be over before we know it. Is the relentless pursuit of money worth our time left?

Why do we have consciousness only to then just die? It makes it the most powerful gift in the universe: that knowing, that ultimate responsibility for the struggle and fate of life is your life itself.

They who control the stock market and machine guns, control politics.

The US Government is a liminal space.

A posterior view of an incomplete braincase of a large iguanodontian dinosaur allowing a peek through the foramen magnum into the cavity occupied by the brain (~12x5 cms). Found by Reginald Hooley who also found Mantellisaurus in 1914. From #IsleofWight now @NHM-London.bsky.social. #FossilFriday

The Green Knight is a Christmas film so I'm watching that as I knit

We introverts, we poets, we writers… have the civility of sorrow, the dreams of the forsaken, and the hearts of the hopeful.

The audacity of life to exist is staggering

Every conversation takes a small act of courage. People forget that vulnerability is the real currency that matters.

IMO Heaven is a bunch of elementary school #art teachers who all got together and created a classroom of infinite fun, whimsy, and learning

All good #artists must die a little before they give something to the world.

the good that you do persists in this world

Is consciousness itself a leap of faith?

#DnD sesh tomorrow!

In the arc of descending daylight they saw mirages amongst the people and the devil in their doorways.

It wouldn’t be life if there wasn’t always another mountain to climb. #writersky

I’ve always thought that #Language is the particle accelerator of Being. In that it advances knowledge and awareness of the relationships that exist in the world. #Nature, humanity, matter. All the same things.

Consistency is the mother of invention not necessity

#Python can backtest a trading strategy, create a heat map of affected areas in your city, and scrape through websites in seconds. Use the force.

Can you canonize yourself on the sainthood of dreams?

Keep #reading. Keep #writing. Terraform your future.

Can you imagine thousands of years into the future and those distant humans who evolved out of reality—who then dig up ancient #algorithms buried in the digital sands? Once so useful. So powerful. So profitable.

What happens when you eat brains? Prion disease, misfolded proteins, a gnawing, raving descent into death. I wonder what happens when #AI consumes itself… The internet is now half AI generated.

If even one person goes hungry, we failed as a society. #endhunger

"I need to hate someone besides myself" is a way of life for too many people.

Ahead of the 1st shutdown of US food aid to hungry Americans in 60 years, some of the 200,000 Little Free Library locations are converting into food pantries. Thanks @littlefreelibrary.bsky.social

Trump and Xi meet and agree on a lot of things... What if countries joined together? Like the fucking Avengers. If we all stopped fighting and joined together, 95% of the world's problems would be fixed in a month. It's a myth that war brings innovation. It was always peace.

Who here wants a paradigm shift? And I’m not just talking like the dawn of the internet. I’m talking one we haven’t seen in 600 years. End of feudalism, beginning of capitalism type stuff. The proverbial big one. The massive wave. I feel like we can all sense it coming...

We used to have provocateurs that were literary, #poetic, and deeply interesting. Now we have provocateurs who are vapid, completely self serving, and just all around greedy scumbags.

Trump is back at it again. Still wait to check your 401K’s. #trump #stocks #economy

Don’t check your 401K’s until after Trump chickens out. #economy #trump #stocks

Life is a series of collisions with the future. #future

Solve tomorrow’s problem. Read a book. #booksky

AI can never replicate the human condition (at least not now - maybe in some sci-fi future). The question is: we’re about to have a biblical flood of mediocre content and books. And the market is already flooded. What can we do? How do we proceed?

Someone has already made the same mistake you just made. Learn history.

Your self doubt is the big boss fight.

DRACULA awakes from slumber in 1942 to find the Nazis storming across Europe, his brides drenched in dreams of destroying the patriarchal war-sickness of men, and an ancient, cursed relic in the hands of a newborn Polish vampire. #UnhingedPit #H #A #Historical #Gothic
