I gotta say, maybe making drones that run on fully autonomous AI is not the best idea considering they will copy themselves to external servers and pretend to be dead if threatened.

People often ask me how I live knowing all the crushing knowledge I spread. The answer is my friends and family find me insufferable.
I kid, but they're tired of it which is why I make content.

I'm disturbed everyone feels like this

One of the most horrifying realizations I've made in recent years is that I am well adjusted.

Working on the second novel while the first still isn't out. The thing that shocks me is I finished the last one.

I am constantly amazed by people's capacity for tolerance of cognitive dissonance

I apologize for advance for this. My mom asked me if I'm dating anyone.

No.

Her: better luck next time

I said: I'm not sure there is a next time. I'm not sure I like men...

Her:...

Me: That doesn't mean I like women, though I do. I just don't like people. I like me, though. 😂

I haven't seen specific research on it. But I am starting to believe it is a neurotype than can occur in any animal with a brain. Which makes a lot of sense.

I had a break in. I left a door unlocked when i went for a walk. I came back and smelled cigarettes. I shrugged. I invited a friend over, we binge walked AHS till 2:30am. They left and I heard something in my guest bedroom. A man bust out of the closet and out the door. I shrugged. Nothing taken.

I'm pretty sure a dentist nearly gave me lidocaine poisoning and I have have a bruised nerve.
5+ injections. Couldn't lift my head or swallow. At some point I just said "STOP" I felt instant numbness with the first one and that can mean a damaged nerve. I can't feel my face at all 6 hours later. 🙃

I actually hate that they trolly problemed people and made them bond with a robot and forced them to kill it with a Hatchet to save the others. Who does this as research?

Systems trap both the jailer and the prisoner simultaneously, neither fully knowing how they got there, only dimly aware they cannot leave.

bearbaitofficial | Substack Hi, you may know me as Bearbaitofficial AKA GT. I make science and technology news and I've wanted to make material that isn't censored by an algorithm and really talk about these topics freely.

Hello all, I'm writing a book. Scifi horror.

If you want to keep up with that, get updates or give feedback. This is where to go
