I'm watchig 28 weeks later for the first time. So far it's better than 28 days later, which on paper is completely my bag, but just didn't do much for me. However, I'm pretty sure tye kids just road through tge exact estate Rose lives in in Doctor Who, lol.

So confused when I see people still using Google to search, especially wheb they're surprised it's rubbish. Use Start Page. Use the no-AI version of DuckDuckGo. Nothing is perfect, but just about anything is better than Google.

Haaaaah Just saw the headline of a review for The Shape of Monsters that was simply WOKE CANNIBAL EROTICA and honestly that could be panning my book, but I love it.

The main function of AI is to make all text on the internet untrustworthy unless you personally know the source. We will boil the oceans and price people out of heat in winter for this.

I don't mind all the Robert Redford thirst pics, if I'm honest. There's a lot of old timely heart throbs where I don't get the appeal, but he's not one.

There were TWO (coordinated) shootings at TWO homeless encampments tonight. Minneapolis police say more than a dozen hurt in homeless encampment shootings Police say over a dozen people have been hurt in two separate shootings at two different homeless encampments across the city on the same day.

Jfc.

it's so funny to see America's health insurance companies be like "look. If there's one thing we love it's denying you care. but we ran the numbers - and we cannot BELIEVE we're saying this - and it's cheaper for us to just pay for the vaccines than deal with you going to the ER."

I'm sorry I don't post much here. The pace at which I live life has slowed to such a mind-numbing crawl. But I have achieved the odd small thing. I made a skirt and a pair of shorts. I won first prize for my cucumber at the local fair, and second for a drawing I did.

After using nazi outrage as a list of users to ban on bluesky, the moderation team immediately changed their terms of service to include "glorification" of violence in a statement posted to @safety.bsky.app The ceo @jay.bsky.team also made a mealy-mouthed statement protecting the dead fascist

Lied when he applied for the booth. Used his girlfriend’s name, supposedly. After complaints came in, he was asked to present a process video and sent in…an AI video. (This is what I learned from an artist who lobbied the complaint)

There is still beauty left in the world

I’m just sad that it didn’t get to be me. Real talk, I am ratting out every AI booth squatter I see. Every single one of those parasites stealing a legitimate spot from an actual artist so they can sell stolen prompts can kiss my ass. ♥️

What do I need to know about these new t&cs? I do not have the spoons to read it all.

If you use speech-to-text dictation for writing, what app do you use? Everything I have tried was either super slow or required a lot of correction of punctuation. I don't want something that will scrape my voice and data, but options seem limited. #writing #disability #mecfs #WritingCommunity

Currently on the phone with Visa Instead of starting with a complaint, I approached this as a Confused American Consumer who doesn't understand why they can't buy things off a website they use The call center rep immediately asked if it was about Steam/itch (cont)

Oh damn. The Long Walk is one of the best novellas I've ever read. Haunting. Very intrigued to see how it could be realised on screen.

Why isn’t one of the burger joints in Yellowstone called Five Geysers?

Hello! If you’re looking for a way to support me being a silly creature on the internet, I have a stretch goal on my ko-fi account to buy a stuffed caiman candelabra (see the quote-post below). Help me make this ill-advised financial decision here: ko-fi.com/scarygorgon/...

Garlic is giving excellent cuddle today.

POTATOES!! Just the small nunber I was able to liberate from the soil - so many were crammed into the container!!

Currently engaging in very slow party prep for my ageing tomorrow, being told off by the Visible App for not pacing myself well. Oh well.

Hallu the Bluesky, how are the thongs and the stuff? I remain Quite Ill, but my cat is Very Cute.

Dexter: Resurrection On the one hand, are you kidding me??? On the other hand... Of course I'll watch it, I love Dexter.

Feeling baaaad right now. Which is annoying, because I was more OK earlier.

It's Disability Pride month! And guess what? After "Mail-Order Magic" (the first short story I've written that involves M.E./CFS) came out, SO MANY readers contacted me saying they wished they had griffins of their own. So, with wonderful artist @papertigress.bsky.social 's help...here you go! ❤️

The small beast is very displeased by the heat.

At the very least the guy could pay for a new cathedral or floating piazza!

I’m tired of being lectured on what it takes to win elections by people who haven’t been, in fact, winning the most important elections of my lifetime. I do not want to hear from these dinosaurs anymore

Apropos of nothing, behold this thread of incredible trans authors who deserve all of the book sales

Spent a good chunk of the afternoon asleep. Not sure I could get up if I wanted, but small cat has found me for cuddles, so that's that.

Your reminder that commercial generative 'AI' is not remotely 'fun' or 'funny'. It is a theft machine that's destroying the planet, and its inaccuracies are poisoning out I formation stream at an accelerated rate. There's no excuse for using it.

Between the Onion and NYTP lately, I worry comedy may have decided laughter was not strong enough medicine. Now they just want to hurt us! 😅

law enforcement officials say they made a proactive check at Rep. Hortman's home after a lawmaker who lived nearby was shot and found a "police vehicle in the driveway with emergency lights and what appeared to be a police officer at the door coming out of the house." He was actually the gunman.

Jesus. The juxtaposition of these two posts back to back is just...

Remember kids the cops and the national guard can handle one huge protest 1 20k in one spot is easy but 20 protests with 1000 people happening all at once in different areas of a city will stretch them to the breaking point
