"And how bewildered / is something that has to fly / if it came from a womb. / As though terrified of itself / it shivers through the air / the way a crack / goes through a cup / the way a bat's track tears / through the porcelain of the evening."

"The current psycho-temporal mind space of America is a vapid, driveling soup kit of burrowed bog, annexed from a waste-wasteland, an outpost orbiting pure socio-cultural insanity" Freedenberg, 2021

"O ponder the fascism of the heart." Gass, 1983

"[the future] no longer seems possible" Fisher

"Wah, my schizoid ramblings with a chatbot to whom I had abdicated my responsibilities as a student and researcher in the name of expediency have disappeared into an aether of my own volition!" Why must I pretend Bucher is Job when he is really a low-level schlemiel of the mind?

Unashamed LLM-propagandizing-rag-cum-sob-story being vomited by Nature here. In a perfect world, any 'academic' bemoaning their non-work being erased b/c they don't know the meaning of words and so pretending that some great tragedy has struck would be laughed off the face of the Earth.

There ought to be some serious consideration put as to how to reckon and resolve the simple fact that half of the country is directly, immediately, and provably complicit in every act of violence enacted by the thugs of the State.

This last (rhetorical) question somewhat presupposes that there ARE advantages to be found under/beside/within (?) the extant bloodbath -- I should stress I've never found anything more utterly picayune and rudimentary than the infotainment thuggishly plopped into my TL/department/syllabi.

I am routinely fascinated by the willingness of scholars & academics, esp. those I admire, to abide the madcap integration of these technologies into curricula, etc.. How could you possibly divorce yourself from the reality your cute educational aid generator has a kill count > 10? (Hint: You can't)

Insofar as I understand, the tolutiloquent hucksters helming the litany of weird shadow cabals referred to in polite company as proper legal corporations have absconded and otherwise shirked legal repercussion. Sogenannte “advancement” apparently requires a human meat grinder no one answers for/to.

Everyday serves as a reminder that as much as we can somewhat glibly comment on the slop generated by LLMs and chatbots and the (occasionally funny) cultural detritus produced consequently, tech/AGI companies are facilitating mass psychosis and by-proxy murder-suicides.

Not enough to post a full face color photo of my wife and kid on my public BlueSky account — talk about a lack of self-control, LOL!

Ofc you promulgate IQ ‘science’, LOL. How much more of an excruciating blowhard can you get? I’ll pre-empt you: I think at this rate, the amount of hot air you’ve puffed could certainly keep the obese dross mound of your academic output afloat on the high seas.

What an utterly bizarre thing to post. I think it’s safe to assume you either a). actually care about others’ thoughts and use your own family members as fodder for your epic blsky roast cannon or b). are not remotely intelligent enough to organize your own thoughts (likely both)

I think it’s a door prize of all three + willful blindness + senility that they hand you whenever you creep out from Hell and enter the real world!

Smarmy, media-tamed, prevaricating mouths are probably best trained with a ballgag or some other thing limiting air flow to the brain, so I’d say this is a fairly accurate claim.

Don’t you know that the American people long to see DJT’s gizzardy bits magnified 200x and overexposed? You can almost see the rot underneath the skin!

It’s cool and all that you needed to boil some innumerable gallons of water to remind yourself of a concept from Rhetoric 101, but have you considered that you never knew what you were saying to begin with and ought to just cut your losses at “slavish coddling of AI” and not that + “dullard?”

I hate that corporations made a toy that's just real enough for gullible or unintelligent people to think they are truly intelligent and call people against it bigots. That thing is owned and controlled by the corporation and it serves their interest for you to feel that way. It is not alive.

This is the problem with pro-AI people. They’re constantly try to force us into using this shitty tech.

Fuck you guys, I actually Ike writing, reading, drawing and learning things myself. I don’t need your shitty AI assistant so stop trying to force us all to use it.
