hearing someone say they regularly talk to ai chatbots for anything does feel like they just rolled up their sleeve to reveal a festering zombie bite

Inanimate things don't bleed in English, and I've picked up a stain or two on your account.

I hate to argue - you're awfully sharp - but I feel you're less an inanimate object and more a conduit for the redder parts of honesty, persistently bedeviled by a blind spot.

meanwhile every other trans woman i know who is one of the greatest minds of their generation is begging for meds and fundraising to eat three times a week and starve the rest

Even medium botmatches beat me into the ground sometimes. ^_^;;

a comic. sinkdog sits on the countertop, broken dishes on the floor around her. she apologizes to a dog character (let's call her daisy) sweeping up the broken glass, who responds "it's okay!" in the next panel daisy is washing dishes in sinkdog, who is laying on the counter, looking away with tears running down her face. "it will get like this again." sinkdog comments. "and i'll help you again." daisy replies. "even if i never get better?" "of course." in the next couple of panels we see a clean, normal sink, and sinkdog rising up from the counter, now a regular intact dog character, freed from the mental block that was the dirty dishes. daisy clasps sinkdog (who is now wearing a hoodie and pj pants) on the shoulders and says "i hope i could unstick you a little bit." sinkdog smiles tearfully back. in the final panel they hug. daisy says "i love you." sinkdog looks relieved.

everyone wished really hard and manifested a friend for sinkdog

ever look at an old piece of yours and think "honestly? i ate"

A Fallout meme reading '[Everyone disliked that.]'.

imagine a world where retail properties are owned by the city and leased out to businesses with a contractual obligation to hire more employees and lower prices. imagine if we abandoned the myth of the market and actually treated the economy like a tool a society uses to serve its populace

This is my go-to.

A screen shot from an interview with the late director David Lynch when he was asked to speak on his statement saying Eraser Head was his most 'spiritual film'. Interviewer: "Elaborate on that." David: "No."

..I'll be taking a page out of the late, great, David Lynch's handbook when it comes to answering questions + theories from now on. (4/4)

DO NOT COMPLY.

DO NOT OUT PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY VULNERABLE CHILDREN

"It's ok as long as it's not sexual"

At a certain point, things are such a fucking major public health issue and the risks are so absolutely infinitesimal that it makes sense to say 'we all have to do this and the net effect will be tremendously positive, and also that one guy is a dickhead who was just selling his own formulation'.

Anti-vaxxers are bad parents. Not vaccinating your child is abuse.

We should eliminate all non-medical exemptions for vaccines.

Sorry, not sorry.

-Above eighty percent-. Eighty percent of people have never tried it. It is profoundly unpopular and being propped up by advertising money so that the corpo shitbirds' shell game can continue inventing money.

You're doing great and you should know that you're not alone, most people hate this shit and prefer to avoid it altogether, it's just the news and the big corpos that are pushing the 'everyone's doing it! get on or get left behind!' nonsense. <3 Hold fast! We'll beat it yet!

A lot of the folks I play with are like 'yeah they're just characters to me, it's not the real me!' and I'm like 'you're broadly missing the point of doing play in this way, investment is not wrong or uncool, please free yourself from the throes of cringe-avoidance and just be awesome with friends'!

reminding myself of this

-what-

Folks, if you don't stop sucking AI's dick it's going to sink your collective ass like a millstone.

Figure it out. The money the 'titans of industry' are offering you isn't worth it and it's costing you readers left and right. No one is ever going to like this thieving, extractive horseshit.

Fun fact: I used the good printer at my work to make a big, glossy copy of this and gave it to my English teacher at the college there right before I graduated.

He immediately hung it in his office window.

I asked if the admins might have a problem with that.

"IDC, they gave me tenure." 🤣

Yeeeah you get it. :D

I remember writing out a lengthy, -fascinating- scene in years now long past wherein I ended up wearing a muzzle made out of one of my parents, which could speak in their voice.

My last remaining connection! Whoof.

The focus will do you good. It always seems to turn out rewarding when -I- do it. :9

I don't know how clear I have to be about this, but I guess I have to be THIS clear:

If I see you post GenAI art, or use GenAI to make a character reference, or use GenAI to generate an email instead of typing it, -anything-, I think you're an asshole, and you are dead to me.

Just sayin'.

The Declaration of Independence says we have the right to overthrow the government The right to overthrow a government remains an important principle to uphold, as it serves as a check on government power. It is a reminder that governments ...

The Declaration of Independence says that we not only have the right but we also have the duty to alter or abolish any government that does not secure our unalienable rights, including life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

"You can't take away GenAI what about the people who use it?! 😭😭😭"

Fuck 'em. Fuck every last one of them. The scrapers DDoS us every waking fucking hour, making it a nightmare to keep things running. I have ZERO sympathy for folks addicted to the plagiarism machine that lies to you.

I am having a hard time choosing a chunk of this article that will convince everyone I know to read it, but everyone I know should absolutely read it.

This article is massive. Read it all. If you're not as broke as me, give Doc some money; he really needs help and the world gets dumber without'im.
