Mostly jokes, knitting, love of Magic the Gathering, art, and books. Imagine the wax museum version of Jennifer Coolidge but shorter. 🌈 Opinions are my own.

I wish Bari Weiss knew how unserious her β€œcareer” has played out.

The gentle crossover of The Boys and Gen V has really been so much fun.

Geoff Duncan unable to confirm that he will not take AIPAC money was cowardice. Shoutout to the @ivehaditpodcast.bsky.social women for leaning in harder the more awkward he got about answering the question.

@nbc10wjar.bsky.social Shame on Kennedy Bucks coverage of the Dighton Rehoboth field hockey situation. The article weaponizes vagueness and is gotcha journalism for the transphobes of the world. Terrible journalism.

Candace Owens should be way less concerned with trans people and way more concerned about why her eyeballs are slowly drifting to the sides of her head.

My favorite crusty cross eyes Foxx back on her bullshit claiming she cares about children but not enough to stop them from getting trafficked to a sex island or shot in a school.

Generative Al is being marketed as a tool designed to reduce or eliminate the need for developed, cognitive skillsets. It uses the work of others to simulate human output, except that it lacks grasp of nuance, contains grievous errors, and ultimately serves the goal of human beings being neurologically weaker due to the promise of the machine being better equipped than the humans using it would ever exert the effort to be.

The people that use generative Al for art have no interest in being an artist; they simply want product to consume and forget about when the next piece of product goes by their eyes. The people that use generative Al to make music have no interest in being a musician; they simply want a machine to make them something to listen to until they get bored and want the machine to make some other disposable slop for them to pass the time with.

The people that use generative Al to write things for them have no interest in writing. The people that use generative Al to find factoids have no interest in actual facts. The people that use generative Al to socialize have no interest in actual socialization.

In every case, they've handed over the cognitive load of developing a necessary, creative human skillset to a machine that promises to ease the sweat equity cost of struggle. Using generative Al is like asking a machine to lift weights on your behalf and then calling yourself a bodybuilder when it's done with the reps. You build nothing in terms of muscle, you are not stronger, you are not faster, you are not in better shape. 

You're just deluding yourself while experiencing a slow decline due to self-inflicted atrophy.

re: generative AI

I have finally fully and accurately explained my problem with how it’s marketed and used.

And now, you can use it, too.

@cnn.com Stop employing Christine Brennan. Her new gotcha journalism piece is deeply self-involved and straight up pandering for attention for
being a huge racist and making the women of the @wnba.com uncomfortable. Why are yall still giving her a platform?

I don’t give a fuck how they try to spin itβ€”immigration is NOT the grave threat to national security they keep claiming it is.
The real threat? A population that’s misinformed, misled, and too afraid or distracted to question the people clinging to power.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Virginia Foxx is a disgrace. Maxwell Frost saying the loud part even louder and staring her down was incredible. Make these Christian freaks sit in their discomfort and in their hypocrisy.

meme format where a man from an anime is looking at a butterfly and asks if it's a pigeon, but instead the man is Americans, the butterfly is labeled "basic human rights” and the quote is "is this communism?"
