The definition of slavery is “work or die” If you’re work is not for advancement but for self preservation then there’s a name for that People are not incapable of building homes or producing their own food Restore the commons, do a UBI, do a Common Wealth Fund

Billionaires have the resources to write the legislation for a Common Wealth Fund They have the resources to write the legislation of a UBI They have it to write a Right to Survival amendment They have to write a Right to the Commons And if they don’t know how they could ask their AI to do it

Is a being good if it’s a bystander in your abuse?

Here’s the math that poverty is a real problem isSurviving = wages > cost of living (expenses) isSurviving = (7.25hr *40hrs per week *4 weeks per month) > $3000 per month isSurviving = false

I punched holes in the AI models Well the AI said I had valid arguments But to change it or fix it I’d have to fly out to Silicon Valley to describe the problems and maybe get a finders fee for fixing it Anyway, even though I’m broke and sad here’s the issue:

I’ve talked to people in power They are psychopathic victim blamers They blame you for faults you didn t cause “You have a new iPhone why are you complaining about being poor or homeless?!” They don’t get it I told them “You can’t believe me or trust the math?” They don’t

The villains in movies are usually kinder than many wealthy They do not care if you live or die or if the system allows you to live or die

Dear younger people If you are not successful or doing some startup, don’t beat yourself up It’s rigged against you. And of course they don’t care. I’ve talked to these people. They don’t care if you live or die

What do you choose?

What is being doing as President Ending wars Making peace Paying reparations Restoring ecosystems and environmental protections Clean energy projects Creating Americas first Common Wealth Fund Outlawing spam calls and emails Making companies have humans answering phones Dethroning god

Imagine being a billionaire and solving poverty or homelessness Think of the bragging rights you’d have over other billionaires “Oh. A new yacht Percivel? I’ll be sure to bring my Nobel peace prize to brunch I was awarded for passing through a UBI”

Newly revised study of AI's impact on productivity estimates that in the US, it's already contributing about $900 billion a year in higher productivity. That's about $234/mo per person. Where's our dividend check? I'll take direct deposit. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Billionaires think about normal people the way normal people think of insects

If this was all a game the first ones to take care of the poor and homeless with a persistent unconditional social welfare program like a UBI or Common Wealth Fund would win They would be the winners in this game There could be multiple winners and multiple ways to win 🥇

A determination of someone’s good is that would end suffering if they could They would choose to prevent suffering

When? You always make statements like this but do nothing. Aren’t you friends with Clinton and others in leadership? You’re fake like everyone else

A wealth tax?! That's economic lunacy! We must be doing everything in our disposal to please the wealthy! Read Chris Luxon's full statement, exclusive to my Substack: yeehawtheboys.substack.com/p/economic-l...

And put in place a UBI and Common Wealth Fund These two things would bring about a second renaissance the likes of which the world has never seen Also dethrone god why not

Contact your state legislators and tell them that it is time to have a UBI Tell them not having a UBI in this modern world is irresponsible and negligent. Tell them it is harming your business, your customers and your community. 4/5

I’ve had multiple iPhones hacked or put into virtual machine mode. Apple has told me a different story every time I’ve visited them This alternate state of the operating system intercepts network calls, redirect websites to return alternative content and more

The mouse crawled across throne room and then stood in his little honches “You may speak to the king now” said a voice behind him Sniffles cleared his throat and then spoke thus, “Your majesty, I must not waste your time. What I ask is for that which I cannot myself do.” “Proceed” he growled low

Citizens do not exist to benefit the state States are meant to benefit citizens I think we’ve gotten this twisted

Library Use Model I don’t know if there’s a name for this but something like the squatters use right If I had a car and I’m not using it I would allow others to use it when I’m not using it I don’t know if that’s a sharing economy model or library model

We are in another civil war There are two groups: Those who want everyone to have survival income Those who do not want everyone to have survival income The second group accepts work slavery They also accept that it’s ok that some die by exposure, starvation or deaths of despair

The idea that people had to work to live is a lie. At least for some part of history When the Europeans arrived in America they observed that the natives lived as on vacation on a continuous holiday There were millions of buffalo. A buffalo would feed you for a month. They lied

Some days it feels like we are living in a world run by psychopathic corporations Who don’t care about people’s well being. What happens when you destroy every feeling for money? We need to be in a world run by love

I overheard someone say “they will rent everything and own nothing” If that’s what you want for others that’s awful Some of the good in your life comes from the gifts and kindness of others

A UBI needs to be positioned as a right and not a privilege bc the haters would have it be taken away from anyone they don’t like UBI is a fair share of the earth as each persons natural right* *still working on how to phrase this

Many people are in financial prisons They aren’t paid enough money to go places or do things Imagine never going on vacation anywhere ever If you cat say no to work and still survive then you aren’t free If your work doesn’t advance you you are a slave

If you work and after receiving your paycheck and paying your bills you don’t have any disposable income that makes you a slave Slave is someone who has to “work or die” If your pay doesn’t advance you then you are working for self preservation Having a basic income frees the slaves

"The fruits of the AI infrastructure era are not the outcome of individual companies alone, but are built on the industrial foundation that the entire nation has accumulated over the past half-century," — Kim Yong-beom, presidential chief of staff for policy

With a UBI the economy will do better Without a UBI the economy will continue to collapse possibly irreparably Then we all end up speaking Chinese

Something the rich don’t understand is that people want to buy things from Amazon or go to restaurants or get a new car But they don’t bc they don’t have the money They have no disposable income A UBI would give them disposable income

Business sales and services would absolutely go up if people had a UBI and common wealth fund dividends GDP would absolutely go up if people had a UBI and common wealth fund dividends

Fuck Loki

“For every minute you don’t do what we tell you we will kill one of your bosses!” Oh no not that!

I don’t think anyone is against UBI Honestly everyone is worried about job loss What we need is legislation on the table people can sign If we make it easy to implement then maybe it will happen sooner That and a common wealth fund

If you ever talk to anyone in government ask them why are they neglecting the poor and the homeless

People wouldn’t be as pissed about AI if it wasn’t making money off everyone’s work Do a AI dividend - AI trained on our work, our code, our content, our comments and our conversations and now the tech companies are making money from it without compensating us for what they took….

If anyone wants to make an phone app or webpage that breaks up a long string of text into posts that fit in twitter or Bluesky I’m sure it will get at least a few users @bsky.app @support.bsky.team

If the gentry, colonizers, and enclosure movement took the commons, UBI is back-payment on a debt, not charity. The framing matters: redistribution from generosity or redistribution from justice. One can be withdrawn when the generous grow tired. The other is owed until the debt is settled.

I say it in different ways, e.g.: You pay for everything you take from the commons, and you get paid for everything everyone else takes from the commons, or You pay for the resources you own, use, or use up, and You get paid for the resources everyone else owns, uses, or uses up.

I pronounce all of us have a right to survive and have a right to nature and to live in nature without any other human dominating over us or it We have a right, a legal grant, and a dividend to a fair share for survival This is a bill, this is a amendment, this is constitution

Can somebody explain to me why the rule is "if you can't make rent, cut out the streaming apps, lattes, and avocado toasts" but it's never "if you can't afford your workers a living wage, cut out the mega-yachts, rockets, and spaceships."

Manipulative language Manipulative language is when someone doesn’t talk normal. It’s safe to say not to trust them

Having a UBI and a Common Wealth Fund dividend is anti-inflation There’s no need to raise prices to cover down time no season sales and services if you have stability A market participation / prosperity tax as a dividend stabilizes the economy Economic security stability Short thread 🧵 👇

Does any AI integrate with Unreal Engine tooling yet? Or Unity? Or design programs? I mean is there a command prompt in the software you can give instructions to the AI and it creates a tree or modifies a character or map? #gamedev #dev #games #indystudio

Sometimes I need to post a few paragraphs of text here But it becomes stressful if I have to break them up into multiple posts Two ideas: - automatically break up long text in the onPaste event (or prompt) - support double length post (512 characters) @bsky.app @support.bsky.team
