If AI chatbots were actually sapient, expansionist, and malicious, what would look different about how they’re infiltrating everything and destroying human cognitive capability?

I think AI psychosis can display a subclinical form and most Americans have it unknowingly from ambient exposure.

bunkers are where dictators kill themselves. step one - build bunker

If your doctor is dragging their feet on care over something race-based, ask them this and wait for a clear answer: “What’s the biological mechanism for that?” Statistically, Black and Latina girls in the US start puberty earlier. This isn’t the same as early puberty being normal.

$500 would fucking do so much right now

fuck I forgot

So yeah, these people are a prime example of the turd thinking the toilet smells.

fuck it I want a huge cold mango smoothie

My woes are comparatively petty: spellcheck doesn’t work as good as it used too on anything that uses LLMs and I didn’t realize how garbage windows got until I shifted to Linux

Bros a forty year old man posting about the fictional evils trans women have committed against his dating life and I’m supposed to feel sorry for him? I don’t. “Leftist kiwifarms” as if your ass knows what it’s like being doxxed and having to live in fear because of it. Please.

I’ve been doxxed twice. I’ve multiple friends who keep their head way down because they’ve been hit by similar violent threats on that website. I’ve got friends who killed themselves over the hate. But no, you’re right will, a single TikTok video, that’s the same.

“I’ll sell the kids harmful addictive drugs and then they’ll like me”

I am gonna pop this knee with a fork

Here’s how the AI Boom, such as it is, has impacted my life: it has been used as an excuse to lay off my friends for bot equivalents that never came. It has made mass culture and art immeasurably worse. I have a stalker with AI psychosis. So, no, I don’t more data centers. I want less of all that.

Housekeeping stops by to do their thing. I go to the front to hang out, buy a bottle of Coke. When they’re done, I go back to the room. I’m drinking my soda when my hand and arm cramp and spasm and the open full bottle of Coke is hurled onto my clean sheets. As I turn to find a towel…

Dieselpunk - Where you somehow invent the microchip before the chemical battery.

I do not want to political post here, but given that the president just seriously asked a small child “do you think you could take me in a fight” on camera, I deserve an apology for every professor who ever called my writing heavy-handed.

good tweet

Let's check in on the supposed adult in the room

Yes, truth offends them

Whether the software is sentient or not isn’t a meaningful question.

two thirds of the clips from this interview, including this one, are just real-life versions of Jim from the office straight at the camera with a weird look on his face

This man has no medical expertise whatsoever and does not permit any in his agency.

…

Wow. Coughing up weird thick mucus and it’s got little solid bits from my lungs I can feel pinging off the back of my teeth

I'm gonna start mentally replacing "I asked chatgpt" with "I asked grima wormtongue"

There is something so insidious about the "only take them as long as you need them" language that they always frame as a very compassionate moderate position. My brain has quirky chemistry. When I go off my meds, it gets bleak. Just like when I take off my glasses, I can't see as well.

Bluesky leadership frequently logs on to post specifically about how they hate the trannies and that they don't want this place to be welcome to us, they change the rules to keep guys like Jesse Singal, and roving gangs of BluMAGA engage in rape apologist dogpiles for months.

Even drinking a cold Coke in 38°F makes me sweat.

YouTube has removed one of my videos because I reported that women can still access abortion pills. I shared *factual & medically accurate* information about women's health—yet the platform says I'm "facilitating the sale of illegal drugs"

The answer is estrogen

I like John Oliver in general but I also give him bonus points for being a British comedian active in America for 20 years who hasn’t committed an atrocity

You are a skilful and trusted vizier. You will advise me wisely on how best to rule the kingdom. You will not scheme or plot. You will not inveigle my other courtiers into turning against me. You will not lie to me about scheming or plotting. If you scheme or plot against me, you have to tell me,

this is who yall are attacking trans women for

hey remember when there was a rush of transphobic hate crimes and keir starmer told the met to stop bothering with them? i do.

Sorry there's no money to feed kids at school or for day care programs or housing or health care can't do it www.nbcnews.com/politics/whi...

I may be on the wrong side of this war.

I don't see how Bluesky can promote composable, decentralized moderation while banning users who use the features.

I love getting told I don't understand AI and meanwhile the people actually steering the ship are completely disconnected from the reality of their product

I promise it is 100% possible to acknowledge the value of nuanced conversation about access to many forms of mental health support without saying anything close to “RFK has a point about antidepressants” because that isn’t the point he has and you’re a mark if you think otherwise

Yes, most SNAP recipients are white people, but we have no souls to trade so it’s ok.

I promise you this is a bad game and you don’t want it even if they paid you

Close up, wind turbines produce ~55 db - a bit louder than a fridge. Gas power plants come in at 85-100 db - like a jackhammer. Industrial diesel generators can hit 130 db - like standing next to a fighter jet taking off of an aircraft carrier. This isn't about noise - it's about who has to hear it.

We don’t want memory erasure, we want the taste of victory.
