Tech people who can't write seem to despise writing. Rather than respect writing as a skill some other people have, they want to tell writers we're worthless, and brainwash people into paying for ecocide-plagiarism-psychosis-harassment-radioactive waste machines instead.

I continue to believe this is a consequence of taking the arts out of schools

ozzie’s au where blitz has a slow descent into panic upon seeing fizz in person for the first time in 15 years, and the direct callout in the song causes him to completely break down. stolas has to try to help

realistically blitz at that point in the show would probably flee and ghost stolas even if he managed to help calm him down. but to be self-indulgent i think they deserve a little hurt/comfort moment before the bittersweet ending <3

The loss of 22 episode seasons means we're losing out on the time honored tradition of "episode in which recurring character is suddenly turned evil via MacGuffin and now the actor gets to have fun"

Dracula: eyy vhat are ve spilling, the blood? [audience laughter] Liberal Pomeranian: dad, it's spilling the TEA [audience laughter] Conservative Pomeranian: hmm I thought you liberals didn't like the Tea Party [audience loses their minds]

We should remember part of humanity is also generating complete nonsense. I'd like to see AI wake up at 1am with a vision of a sitcom about Dracula who has two pomeranians, one liberal and one conservative, with a theme song that includes the lyric "it's a two cup teacup politics dust up."

You think I want to OUTSOURCE trying to figure out what the fuck that means for the rest of my life???

Tens of thousands of people eagerly downloaded the leaked Claude Code source code this week, and hundreds - if not more - of those downloads came with a side of credential-stealing malware.

If you "respect" me "too much" to buy or enjoy my porn, that honestly says a lot about how disrespectfully you view sex workers and the art we create and I DO NOT take it as a compliment, I take it as an insult to myself, my peers, and my art form. Work on that.

I remember reading between the lines and coming away with the conclusion that Joss Whedon killed a child

Old enough! To remember! Joss Whedon! Basically copping! To murdering a child!! As a reason!!! Why he harassed so many women!!! To the point that wasn't allowed in a room alone with girl child actors anymore!!! Because of how he'd harass them if he was!! web.archive.org/web/20260101...

i did a quick grocery run and the cashier went to put my groceries in my bag and put the tortillas in first and I was like, "hmmm okay" and then went to put the bread in and I had to stop her and instead of just setting the bread aside and putting the heavy stuff in, she went "here, you do it." 🙃

i'm just willing to bet stores don't do any training but also this is basic logic? you don't put the soft things on the bottom? especially when the rest of the groceries are frozen veggies and meat?

NO, YOU DO NOT SUBSIDIZE BIRTH CONTROL TO REDUCE RENT, YOU EUGENICIST FREAK.

Steve Bannon, who it's supposedly a smart move for Newsom to have done an interview with, said himself that his favorite book is the Turner Diaries, which is about saving America by lynching every Jewish person, every ethnic minority, every LGBT person, every feminist, etc

AI driven 'efficiency' comes from the same human mindset that wildlife, land, waterways & the ocean have no value unless they're providing resources & wealth creation. Real research, just like untouched wilderness, provides benefits far more complex & profound than superficially efficient results.

It is EXTREMELY funny the NYT makes any attempt to feign integrity at this point, I'll give them that, if that AI was a rabid transphobe, they'd make it their sole columnist and editor and reduce the paper to just Sulzberger feeding it his sick fuck fantasies about us

these are the people for whom narration is added to movies which are already completed

This is NOT my area of expertise, but my understanding is that most of if not all of our economic growth in the past year or couple of years has only come from AI companies, data centers, etc. and that the rest of the economy is in the shitter. 1/2

So the only thing keeping us from being formally in a recession is AI growth. And recessions often trigger austerity measures from the government. So while normal folks are already feeling the squeeze even though we're not formally in a recession, the reaction to a recession could make it worse. 2/2

Throw away these Walmart dino-shaped chicken nuggets. They may contain lead

And when our grocery oligopoly sees an excuse to blame price increases on things outside of their control (like "inflation" or in this case, gas prices), they are extremely reluctant to lower prices back down after that excuse disappears

seeing a lot of "higher gas prices won't affect me because I don't drive very much" and unfortunately it is my sad duty to inform you that your food does not teleport to the grocery store

In general, a bubble is a rapid unsustainable surge of demand in an industry (think housing in the 00s and the internet in the 90s). A lot of corporations and wealthy people are investing a lot of their money very quickly in AI ventures in the hopes of making more money. The problem there is clear.

You wrote about how you used a toxic, environmentally destructive tool trained on the stolen work of your writer peers to do your job for you. Your piece constantly begs the question about AI's inevitability without actually presenting evidence of it. You were rightly mocked.

Also like, this isn't the first time I've tried to get into Linux over the years and "the only available documentation is written assuming you already understand Linux" is, in hindsight, more of a frustration of the decade+ timespan rather than a reflection on the current state.

"leftists have no structural power because some were mean to me" will never not be hilarious

whenever I see someone say anything along these lines, I instantly know they have zero knowledge about societal power dynamics and their analysis cannot be trusted or be useful.

"it's not that deep" I am capable of finding infinite meaning in a piece all my own, actually, even an inch deep puddle reflects the endless sky
