tonight's AI discourse lightning round: 1. LLMs are not people and do not have rights; many real people's rights are being violated in the development and deployment of LLMs 2. if you're really attached to using fake slurs for robots you might want to examine why that is

I am (unfortunately) an accidental expert on eugenics, and let me just say with my full throat: if we eliminated every "AI" chatbot and plagiarism LLM and search engine "assistant", it would not be eugenics or genocide. These things are not PEOPLE. There's no "intelligence" involved.

how about you care about actual fucking people on this planet before you start wondering if your toaster has a soul. Once everyone materially demonstrates they care for all people on this planet and we deal WITH ALL THAT and all the animals too then we can talk about your nonsense.

'calling chatbots silly names is the same as being racist' no. it isn't. im not even going to bother indulging that with a counter argument.

the longer the espresso machine takes to heat up, the more of last night's leftover nachos I will consume while hunched over the pan like a feral racoon

when I was a child, people looked at my long fingers and thought I would be a pianist instead I became a lesbian

sometimes a girl just needs a cute femme to run their fingers through her hair, whisper sweet nothings in her ear, slowly drag their hand down her back, and ram her into the mattress until she can't think. anyone know where I can get that? asking for a friend

cute girls shouldn't have to work. they should be massaged, and fed grapes in exchange for esoteric knowledge and the joy of their company

in our year of dystopia 2025, fascism is trying to kill me and capitalism is trying to take us all down with it, but I'm just a silly lil goblin out there bangin' hot trannies like the good lord intended 😇

"Trans people need to be nicer" "Trans people need to understand compromise is important" "Trans people need to--" We have been playing fucking Cassandra for the last decade-plus and now that the Trojan War on Queer People is here we are expected to act like no one could have seen this coming

honestly it was pretty funny when the right was pretending that charlie kirk was a revolutionary civil rights leader when his whole deal was barely winning arguments with children

"unlock agentic productivity" is your new execu-speak buzz phrase for 2026

Let me be clear. I don’t care about tax cuts if you are gutting and privatizing services that I rely on.

be a cactus: stand tall, be strong, and do harm to anyone who tries to touch you without your consent

true. so when do we start seeing Longbubu?

The good old days would have seen me labotomized or chained to a radiator so thanks, I'll pass.

Liberals will do anything other than acknowledge how bad things are getting for us

[at my second rodeo] listen up you ignorant sack of shit

I don't hate it, but like the intent of separating transsexual (medical/surgical intervention needed) from transgender (meds optional), clarity is good if the term is used to take away our care, forcing those doing it to be open about their bigotry (think TERF vs GC) helps to humanize us

People who stay friends with sexual harassers are gross.

you and most of bluesky have very different definitions of "real and high quality posters"

how to wake up your gf

We regret to inform you that the President has not been Raptured at this time. We have imposed 200% tariffs on Heaven in response and welcome discussions with the Heavenly Host to correct this matter

I wonder whether there’s any notable overlap between very rich men being enraged at being publicly and truthfully accused of committing sex offences, and TV and newspapers suddenly filling up with terrifying, screaming horseshit about The Left destroying freedom? Somebody should look into that IMO

Happy Bisexual Visibility Day to all the bisexuals who did not get raptured.

If you have friends/family joining the state-ordered mourning of that podcaster killed in Utah, be careful They see the racism, sexism, & bigotry he espoused & think it's "moderate" because they share those ideals & don't want to admit that they're extremists But they are. Every one of them.

I'm here *trying* to enjoy autumn, the best season, but the rampant fascism is really FUCKING UP THE VIBE

oooh I'm mad. The fucking thing is controlled by gestures? I'm sorry, this is going to help disabled people how exactly?

All The Things Trans People Said Were Gonna Happen Ended Up Happening

sudo kill me

We're 10 years into the anti trans panic, any rhetorical approach that doesn't start with "conservatives are lying to you about this, any concerns you may have about trans integration have already been addressed decades ago and if you believe otherwise you've been lied to" is actively harmful

A tale as old as time: "I'm a leftie but I think trans women win everything" Win what? . . (Time passes) . . . A 2 year old article about a cis girl that came 3rd in a race Shouldn't the fact you had to hunt to find a story not make you stop and think that maybe trans women don't win everything?

No memes. No jokes. No protests. No messages. No truth to power statements. I don’t give a fuck. Never post a swastika in my mentions.

This is what I said about Kirk-style conservative "debate" culture a few months ago, and I still believe it.

“i don’t read fiction” damn sorry about your flaccid imagination

so many of my instructors have never been mentors or teachers and it shows. they get so lost in the weeds when trying to provide an example it hurts 😫

Good time to be a mean bitch to Nazis.

If you’re calling for civility in a time when fascism is overtaking the country then you are on the side of the fascists

I have 2.5 hours until my next class. that's lots of time to do something useful, but I might take a shower and make lunch if I'm lucky 😩

this... says so much I love it

Black women and trans people this week: yes, protest! But safely and smartly White men who have led us into this mess: no that's stupid, you're stupid- you fucking coward.

Maybe consolidating all national media (and really any industry) into 2-3 corporations and saying it passes anti-trust scrutiny was a bad idea.

Oh actually this one is easy to answer. YOU don’t ’give trans people’ anything. Trans people use their autonomy to take the medication that THEY have decided is best for them based on decades of research and best practice. You get zero say in what that is. None.

And I wake in the morning and I step outside And I take a deep breath and I get real high And I Scream at the top of my lungs

Someone got lynched at Delta University at Mississippi today. Yeah that’s enough internet for me today. Muting stuff.

shoutout to my intern, who is currently reading her way thru a random sample of novels & has discovered all it takes for a certain kind of book to get massive acclaim is to [be written by a white man, get a big advance &] have inexplicable, poetic ramblings about the spiritual meaning of the boner

all i know is that normalizing debate with fascists has only facilitated the rise of fascism.
