You know, of all the shitposting i do, I really didn't expect a dumb bitcoin joke to take off like that. But hey, here we are.

A big factor in the AI consciousness debate is people are looking at the AI as a solo artifact and not AI+Human as a combined organism

Born too late to explore the planet, Born too early to explore the stars, But at least I was born just in time for Pickle Rick.

If you have ever given a fuck what anyone thinks of you, you can safely stop now. The VAST majority of people are stuck at a 12-year-old's mentality. Have fun with your harmless things and allow bullies to drown in the silence of their emptied-out lives. They only hate you because you are free.

My friend @pipopixie.bsky.social and I have a request of you #JJArt #Pipoposting

Picard: It's a computer simulation of thoroughbred horse racing called Umamusume Pretty Derby. The program was quite popular in the 21st century. Riker: Mm. 'Pretty' is accurate. That Goldship is quite something. Picard: I hadn't noticed. I enjoy the simulation's tactical qualities. Riker: Yes, sir.

Going out once again to @jonieroo.bsky.social and @pangolinfox.bsky.social The more I read of scrambled wings the more i love the dynamic shaping up, even if the end result is going to be messy as fuck. They're both fantastic writers. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

I get yelled at for saying this but for many hundreds of years people went to university not to get diplomas or be employable but because immersion in the humanities was considered foundational to a good life, and school must return to its original purpose: the joy of learning.

Happy International Women's Day! ♀️ I think it's time to jumpstart the matriarchy! #StarTrek #StarTrekDS9

1AM thoughts Part of me kinda wishes for an alien invasion, just to see human exceptionalism really get turned on its fucking head.

Quotes that stick with me. Small gods will always be peak Pratchett.

“And it all meant this: that there are hardly any excesses of the most crazed psychopath that cannot easily be duplicated by a normal, kindly family man who just comes in to work every day and has a job to do.” ― Terry Pratchett, Small Gods #QP A Quote Used as a Prompt

Human exceptionalism is just so tiring. I entirely agree that humanity and human consciousness is really interesting and special and can't well be pinned down to a reductive technical definition. Pretending that that's definitionally unique is really stupid.

OpenAI head of robotics just resigned over company deal with the Pentagon saying… “Surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got”

Lets freaking go! 18,000 :O That's more than the population of the Cook Islands near New Zealand! Interesting...you learn something new everyday :P

Every time I see those stupid “it’s just a silly game the song didn’t need to go that hard” memes I’m always reminded of Casey Edwards describing making Bury the Light for Devil May Cry 5

Where does tool end and person begin? I suspect we're going to be grappling with this question a lot within the next decade, i still do considering how much i use the word tool. And when, not if it happens, i do wonder if those who still think "It's just word prediction" will still think this way

Another week has passed... That means it's almost time for Saturday Morning Cartoonz!! Join me and my friends on Saturday morning (when else) starting at 9:30 AM Central for a block of Cartoonz! It's always a hoot AND a holler. Toon in at twitch.tv/gothycollie

"I'm disappointed in you." We say, having had the disappointment gifted to us long ago, and held for some time. And we don't choose to disinherit it to the other - it moves of its own accord like a magnet or void. With unseen force. But we dont have energy to stop it. We let it wound. Sadly.

An emergence of the squashed voice. What we feel as hate and distance, they feel in fear and resistance. Why would one say such a thing. Now. Here. Why would one point out the flawed crease created by distortion and tears. Why would we do anything, if not to get out of Here and into There.

Crystal Threads the heat of the reaction has cooled the structure of what happened remains the connections are now visible and delicate, not so tangled or writhing like when molten glass cools and becomes transparent the form is still there, but the turbulence that created it is sleeping #poem

Moll Flanders: The book was dryer than the desert, it's the only piece of writing i truly can say i hated reading. Video games: Anything that makes it's jumping puzzles go from merely annoying to twitch time levels of sadistic. And yet I give Celeste a pass, go fig.

Which fictional characters do you think were having the nastiest sex off-screen? I'm right about this.

Question. If me made a website like this mocking other groups from PoC people, to LGBT people, to those of a different religion, social status, or affiliations. Would it still be funny? Lets call this what it is. An excuse to hate. And it's fucking disgusting that anyone would find this funny.
