Listen up nerds I get that ai didn't directly cause whatever server issue bluesky is suffering and I don't care. It is way way way funnier to see every pro-ai poster on here flipping out over jokes about ai crashing the site than to be factually correct lol

"troubled coder who died by suicide" is such infuriating phrasing, he was a 26 yo, sentenced to 35 years in prison for downloading academic articles!! they murdered him.

Anyone who thinks money -- a finite resource -- should be hoarded needs be sacrificed to the volcano gods.

Jeff Bezos has $222 billion. If he paid my wealth tax this year, we could fund insulin in America for everyone who needs it plus free school lunch for every kid in Texas—and have plenty of money left over. And Bezos would still have $215 billion dollars to spare.

🖤💜 Happy international asexuality day! 🖤💜🐀 (oldie but goldie)

(yes, it's hyperlocal, but the win number in this election is under 1,000, do you have any idea how far each dollar will go???? AND we get the first socialist woman and the first socialist outside of Hudson County elected to public office in New Jersey—governing a city of 55,000!)

Our feature artist/tutorial today is this great page on HUGGING, by the talented @miyuliart! Thinking about the subtlety in the CLOSENESS and the COMPRESSION of FORMS makes all the difference here. #anime #manga #comicart #conceptart #gamedev #animationdev #comicart #tutoria

Americans have already been using credit cards to buy necessities like groceries for years. It’s unacceptable and Susan Collins and repubs in Congress keep making things worse. We need change. Maine needs a senator that knows food policy and what it’s like to rely on govt assistance. Maine needs me.

Totally plausible that in like 10-15 years there's a raft of stories about how many young people are unhireable due to a lack of basic literacy or critical thinking. And it won't be their fault, and they'll still be the ones to suffer for it.

I had a nightmare last night that I accidentally installed one of those malware toolbars that made Microsoft Edge my default browser, had a shitton of pop-ups occur without prompt, made my computer sluggish, and broke a lot of general functionality. Man, that's a repressed memory for sure.

For today's #RepostYourArt theme of cats or dogs, here's a peaceful garden scene #Caturday

Did some rpg type shit

When trans masc athletes start winning competitions regularly, they'll ban them too and use the excuse of "doping" to do it. That blows up their whole "biological sex" argument though.

this could be the subject of a dissertation

not ‘shopped. not cropped. not stock. straight from the phone of stormwater inspector Lindsay Schiel snapped yesterday at a basin in Hudson.

thank you

Metal is like flesh. Both carry potential in their veins. When tempered with heat and pressure, the potential surfaces. My purpose is to bring forth this potential. Allow it expression. -Coaxmetal

I’m honored to have the endorsement of Able Dems. About 25% of Americans are disabled, yet only 2.6% of Congress identifies as having a disability. This isn’t a coincidence. Running for office is disproportionately more difficult for disabled people. Join us @ heathhowardnh.com ✊ #NHPolitics #NH01

HAVE A VERY MERRY

The Artemis II astronauts are on their way to seeing the far side of the Moon! Just 24 people in the history of the human race have seen it with their own eyes.👀 This is what the Moon's far side looks like! It is dominated by Lunar highlands; there are fewer dark areas (maria) due to thicker crust.

ahhhh looks like the old Pretend To Be A Famous 193-Year-Old Tortoise's Veterinarian And Say He Died And Then Solicit Crypto Donations Through Social Media scam i've seen it a million times

PETERBOROUGH: Let’s talk about the cost of living. 🛒💸 Funding endless foreign wars directly impacts the affordability crisis right here at home. We must change course and put working families first. 📌 Peterborough Town Library ⏰ Sat, Apr 4 @ 1:30 PM RSVP here ⬇️ mobilize.us/s/Vfsr0C #NHPolitics

It’s Autism Acceptance Month. Here’s your reminder NOT to donate to Autism Speaks. This is a great article summarizing how they speak over autistic voices rather than amplifying them. #NHPolitics #NH01

If all goes according to plan, in a few hours, a crew of astronauts will begin a journey that will take them on a loop around the moon. Here's a video that NASA put together to help people visualize the journey through space, first orbiting the earth before looping around the moon and flying home 🔭

Yet another great place to donate instead of Autism Speaks Help an #ActuallyAutistic person flip the NH congress reps away from the establishment people like Shaheen & Hassan who vote in a manner incongruent w/ our best interests Heath is running against Shaheen 2.0 He needs our support to win!

I want to put this as plainly as possible: This site has way too many self-righteous, underinformed assholes looking to pick a fight. We need fewer of them and more people with Mark's expertise.

DON'T LET THE BASTARDS GET YOU DOWN 🏳️‍⚧️ #art #tdov #transart

8-1. would love to hear the democratic party dead-enders spin this one for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The world is stupid, but I just watched a squirrel break into a car in the parking lot below me, steal a package of crackers, and escape to a nearby tree. So at least somebody is winning.

Happy Trans Day of Visibility. I see you, I hear you, I stand with you. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️ #NHPolitics #NH01

FINAL PUSH💥 The top 3 fundraisers in the #NH01 Democratic Primary: •Are millionaires •Hold stocks •Are already buying pricey ads Despite this, I’m in 2nd place, one of just two candidates polling in double digits. I’m not a millionaire. In NH, state reps like me make $100/yr. That's it. #NHPolitics

Self-funding isn’t an option when I make pennies a day in the NH House. But even at just 25 yrs old, I have more legislative experience than all 6 of my competitors. Help us keep up the fight by donating and sharing! #NHPolitics #NH01 heathhowardnh.com/donate

I won’t go into why I’m saying this again, but every person should have to work a food industry job at least once in their lives I am pretty sure it would improve how humanity functions

EZRA KLEIN: everyone else is jumping off a bridge and sooner or later you will have to as well

Thinking about how cool moths are.

I was at a #NoKings rally yesterday and rather than writing another essay about why this matters I will just say that it is pure joy to meet the people who want to stand out and the people who are doing the work. Thank you.

Reparations now. UBI. No means testing. Just checks. Emergency welfare available to all on request as cash payments & OPTIONAL counselling. Nationalize the internet. Categorize internet access as a basic utility, like water. Free college. Forgive all student debt. 100% tax rate above $10 mil.

ai feature implementation strategy is essentially “how annoying can we make the ui” so people accidently hit ai features so these companies can brag about how “highly used” ai features are internally

most of the time you don’t want true randomness and/or simulation in a game. you think you do but you’re wrong and will get mad at us if you get it.

Night all

Spanking your kids and other forms of corporal punishment are unequivocally horrible for their development. Don't do it. No, not even once, not even if they do something truly terrible. There is a myriad of reasons and studies that support this. Yet a lot of people still think it's acceptable.

I say this gently and with love. The ppl watching the No Kings protests and saying “I have nothing in common with these normies, but I support the wine moms and fleece vest dads” are in denial. You are a middle aged bike commuter with a dog and a mortgage. You are these normies.

Happy Easter
