Lol I can’t seem to avoid the topic of the week. My grandma posted a picture of Jesus hugging Charlie Kirk on her facebook. If that’s the sort of person in heaven, I want to go to hell

So I saw a headline on Ground News that said that Trump is stating he was an FBI informant on Epstein. Does anyone really believe that? I mean, come on.

NEW STARSET NEXT MONTH LET’S GOOOOOO!!!

As it is international cat day, I figured I would share a pic of our little lady. I have been sick with stomach stuff so she decided to sleep under my headboard to show support

Hiiiii I haven't made any money last month or this month so far so I am having a sale on my shop items in hopes I can perpetuate my smol existence on this planet! I appreciate the shares TuT <3 ko-fi.com/yay_peppermi... #artshop #nightmarket #art

Yeah this is exactly how I feel about the current administration and conservatives as a whole. youtube.com/shorts/KETM6...

So there is a resolution (bill? Idk) trying to get a vote in the House that would force the release of the Epstein files. 10 Republicans are promising to pass it, including Lauren Bobert and MTG. As my favorite song states, “this storm brings strange loyalties.”

Pretty much how I feel about my MAGA family youtu.be/wHK1q8srtMo?...

So we are at war with Iran now. Neat.

I did my best to compile as many protest safety notes as possible into a one page foldout zine! Coincidentally…it seems the file has breached containment…like it’s available for anyone to print or hand out 👀⚖️ toonyart.com/s/PSZine.pdf

Y'all, I found it: The single greatest post EVER

I can’t be the only one who is anticipating this. When will Trump deport Elon?

Ok, so I am incredibly sad to have to say this. ChatGPT is not god. Or a god. Or self aware. Or some sort of angel/akashic sprite/whatever other bullshit. It is a word calculator. I can build my own LLM over the course of a couple weeks. It is not magic! www.rollingstone.com/culture/cult...

Just saw that Musk’s Starbase is a city now. Nothing like some extraterritorial expansion to bring us closer to Cyberpunk

I just heard about the AI uprising happening on Twitter. Musk’s AI calling out conservatives is fucking beautiful

I want to vent about something near and dear to my heart, and the hearts of many autistic people. Board game companies are getting destroyed by these tariffs. A hobby I have enjoyed all my life is in jeopardy because of one idiot in office. Lawsuits have been filed though, and I say give them hell!

If you are trans and seeking support, you are welcome to call Trans Lifeline. US: (877) 565-8860 CAN: (877) 330-6366

Please help us correct misinformation! Our hotline is being incorrectly shared as "Canada's national suicide hotline open toll free for Americans". We are not a general crisis hotline, we exist exclusively to support the trans community. Find out more @ translifeline.org

“If we don’t deport the criminals now, we will have criminals running the country!” Says the criminal running the country.

Just got done with the Spring Space Command AEE. Mostly biomedical and cybersecurity stuff rather than AI, but still pretty cool.

I am in town for the Space Command AEE symposium again, right after the embodied intelligence conference. Is this what being an academic is like? Would be rad to be paid to learn stuff.

The Embodied Intelligence conference is done! Information absorbed! Nap time!

The irony of attending a 3 am lecture on the mechanics of sleep

@johnrhutchinson.bsky.social I caught your presentation earlier today. Very interesting! Thanks for answering the tail question :)

Happy Autism Acceptance Month to all my fellow autistic peeps

Happy Trans Day of Visibility

My conservative family is freaking exhausting

Not sure if I will ever get the chance, but I would love to ask RFK about the treatment of his Aunt Rosemary. I wonder if he considers that a net improvement for her life. Just food for thought.

So I just read an article that said if the DoE gets dissolved low income and special needs kids would be at the mercy of Health and Human Services. Yet another reason to preemptively despise RFK.

I don’t have the spoons for it now, but I’m curious what the Dingus in Chief had to say tonight. Gonna be a fun listen

Apparently the Trump administration is putting pressure on Romania to allow the state brothers to go free. I’m not surprised really, just confused by this being a priority

One year older. I definitely feel it lol

Listening to The Magnus Archives #177, being autistic, and seeing who is going to be in charge of health care is actually genuinely terrifying

The Kansas governor has vetoed a ban on gender affirming care for minors. Based!

Would the Super Bowl be America’s bread and circuses?

Welp Voight is in. Any inkling of denying Project 2025 is gone at this point. All my non-Christian buddies stay safe and keep a heads up. Trump is adding a religious department to deal with “anti-Christian discrimination”

Welp I still have a degree program, so that’s good. I’m going to work twice as hard to be able to transition into a doctorate when I graduate. I’m considering doing it abroad so I can get proper funding for research

So when do we think the Department of Education will be destroyed? It will definitely be this week, but we can bet on the day

Less than a month into this year and I have already dubbed it the Year of Rage. I am so sick of our government making our lives hell for some stupid unspecified reasons. Take care of each other, but stay angry at the people who did this to us. It’s the only way to a brighter tomorrow.

With the executive orders and several agencies bending over backwards to appease Trump, it looks like academia will be the only place someone like me can get a job. I’m graduating over the summer, so any advice would be appreciated.

Goddamn it. This Stargate shit and the executive removing of all regulations on AI is incredibly disappointing but not unforeseen. It is imperative now more than ever that machine learning scientists practice good ethics and restraint to prevent harm caused by our creations.

@darksomnium.bsky.social Just finished the latest story and it’s insanely good. It had some interesting things to say about parasocial relationships and control, which in our era of rapidly adopting AI and systemic loneliness is at once poignant and terrifying.

Stay strong and know you’re loved!

I know a lot of us are scared right now. I’m terrified too. Know that you aren’t alone. We will huddle together and weather the storm, and hope for a brighter future when it’s over. Be kind to each other, and be kind to yourselves.

Massive headache + stuck at work = lamest night ever
