This will be me today.

Wait, really? Because if that is true then we reached lvl 100 braindead even faster than I could anticipate...

I’m one of the ten thousand authors of this big 'blank' book, published today on the first day of the London Book Fair by the Society of Authors. It’s a plea to Big Tech to stop stealing the work of individual writers, artists and journalists.

Just to make sure, it was >live< children, right? Because it really gives a haunted house vibe 😁

I am shocked to learn this is actually underestimating costs, because it ignores the infrastructure costs.

This video is lowballing it.

Neat! 🙂

Someone probably asked that before, but why did she choose to go for the second skin? (can imagine it is easier to go around with more human look?)

Is it just a quartz though 🤔 is there a safe way to find out?

The world is, no matter how we think it ought to be. You have to be with it. You have to let it be.

Never in my life had I thought of a more glorious steed than a manatee. Can you imagine jousting?

People see the scars. But they see you, too, and you aren't the scars. You aren't ugly. You aren't evil. You are Therru, and beautiful. You are Therru who can work, and walk, and run, and dance, beautifully, in a red dress.

I need a "who is this sword" version. Just so can scream entusiastically at the screen, you know.

I've seen some similar projects, but IMO this seems to better capture some of the fine-grained detail

That is neat! 🙂 *waves from a nearby star* (at least to me it looks like a galaxy)

Every person is born with an inner world called a myslemir. It exists within the soul and holds the person's mind. A person's myslemir changes as they grow and reflects that person in some way. It can look like anything: the indoors, the outdoors, a weird dreamscape, empty

Ages ago (around covid and all those fun things) there was an interesting article on our news about psychologists trying to explain that. Something about people finding comfort in "solid" beliefs and unwilling to leave that comfort zone when challenged. Either way, its sad to see.

Got me a good laugh here 😁
I wonder what she would say to an European saying that it feels like US is half Christian and it is going to start theocracy any day now, and anybody that critizes its leader... umm. Whoa. This is creepy. (anyway sorry to hear this BS got to her brain!)

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work.

"Out of my curiosity..." (sometimes I wonder if my coworkers dread when I start my sentence with that)

Datusha mentioned!!! 😁

Of all the easy things you can do to help the environment, conserve water for communities not corporations, not perpetuate scams, support the labor and rights of creators... *not* using generative AI is the fucking easiest. You absolutely deserve to be shamed for using it for image and text creation

Those look great!

Why oh why is the internet full of quacks that claim this or that can cure everything. Forget that its damaging to people dealing with actual issues, think about more naive people (like parents of cancer patients, hint hint) falling for their bullshittery.

Rant over. Sigh.
