Live now attempting a kind of forbidden solitaire speedrun that crashed my computer for “my computer bad” reasons over at twitch.tv/lepidopterane

I really like Andy Kim, but with all due respect, how do you improve conditions at a facility that is meant to harm people. Shut it down.

Hi. Librarian here. Let me settle this once and for all: audiobooks are reading. Graphic novels are reading. It's all fucking reading. Stop gatekeeping and stfu. Thank you an have a good night.

Hot take: everyone keeps calling themselves the villain of guy mont spelling bee but I think the only real villain on this show and its other incarnations is the Clock Man

Mikie Sherrill’s state police destroyed the mutual aid tent for families of the detained that had been in operation at Delaney Hall for more than a year, providing clothes, food, even stuffies for the kids. They just trashed it. I’m pretty speechless at the kind of person you have to be to do this

If you're anti AI & making claims that some of the models under the AI umbrella are ok because they seem to be serving scientific goals, then you fell for a type of hype. One from the 2010s; stats models aren't blessed by their use in science and they can erode our thinking. bsky.app/profile/oliv...

every meme I know from tumblr has never left me. I just told a coauthor “I feel seen in this chili’s” because she described Tompkinsia in a way that recognizes it as a form of reading training and that’s how I see it too 💜

@mikiesherrill.bsky.social you could stop this at literally any moment. You could give the order Right Now.

I think we’re long past the “ai bad because of stealing” argument and fully in the “ai is also actively and tangibly destroying our planet why are you even trying to use it as an art tool at this point” stage

You wouldn’t go live and speedrun ng+ all bosses in forbidden solitaire… twitch.tv/lepidopterane

great, maybe it’ll run off that cliff into the sea

Random arts funding plea: a friend’s doing a gallery show of really unique vintage Mexican movie memorabilia in Detroit this summer but is getting killed on framing costs and there are no grants to be found. Anyone want to be a patron of the arts and pay to frame some movie posters?

It gets worse. At ACM CHI this year there were a few titles of paper sessions that were more akin to “how to deal with AI haters” than “listening to AI haters and why you should.” I wasn’t the only attendee to notice and CHI is a big computing conference and not a big AI conference but yikes

sometimes I wonder if people in other fields have any clue what we go through as women in computational fields... (graph from: www.npr.org/sections/mon...)

Live now on National Solitaire Day with some Forbidden Solitaire speedrun practice over at twitch.tv/lepidopterane !

Aside from Helen of Troy being: a) fictional and B) often played by Black women in modern media The Mediterranean is not super white. It’s not even vaguely white. It never has been. The history of trade, migration, invasion, and cooperation makes that an impossible and deeply racist myth

I've been annoyed by this for many years now, and even inquired about it when I was chairing an ACM conference and putting together the registration site and was told it can't be changed. WHY DOES THIS SAY OPT IN AND NOT OPT OUT

Everyone is losing their minds about who's playing Helen of Troy in Christopher Nolan’s adaption of The Odyssey but nobody says a word when classics departments are shut down. We all know that this is not about Homer. open.substack.com/pub/jamescos...

An auditor for the Ontario, Canada government found that AI agents tasked with turning doctor/patient conversations into structured notes routinely hallucinated false treatments, replaced drug names with entirely different drugs, and missed crucial information

Just scrolled by an anti-AI story from the Washington fucking Times so i'm really going to need Democrats to get on-message and start claiming that "AI==higher cost of living + lower quality of life + billionaire greed + consent violation" space, really fucking fast. Fucking MOVE.

actual humans can help you sound more human than this machine. I’ve copyedited on friends’ work for years and like. There’s a difference between me helping this paper sound less wooden and the machines taking a paper and making it worse.

folx, I’ve been working on AI "ethics" for almost a decade now & hate to tell you there’s no such thing as "ethical AI" the only "ethical principle" that works is regulating the shit out of the industry & to take back control of our autonomy, fundamental rights, freedoms & right to exist w/out AI

rare to see someone proven right this quickly

i would like fewer hardest battles. or just a little bit of spacing between them. this is a lot at once

Hey. It's ok. Like Kamen Rider Black Sun said,

If I die before this era "AI"-as-LLMs does and any of you use those things to bullshit up a facsimile of a remembrance of me, I swear to fucking god I will haunt you so bad that no amount of young priests and old priests falling down Georgetown stairwells will save you.
