Is it attempting to mac-splain everything to you now?

The truly sad part of this is that AI is still just a fancy calculator. It can only rinse & repeat information so many times, & depends on constant training with clean data & maintenance to its LLM & the algorithm driving it. It's an excellent tool, but has no morals. "Truth" is what you feed it.

I'm so tired of seeing these signs at freeway exits in the south valley, so I'm going to WWKCD (what would Kurt Cobain do). Anyone know where I can get some 24" full color stickers made?

The Dignity Index A new tool for scoring speech on its power to unite or divide.

@marcelias.bsky.social would you reach out to The Dignity Index with this? They aren't on bsky but can be found at www.dignity.us. Your post gets to the root of why dignified conversation on only one side, or usurped conversations beholden to power, are problematic.

These past few weeks I have been trying to get help for my mentally ill son, who is homeless. There are zero community supports who will intervene and he may die of exposure. Our healthcare, particularly for the mentally ill, is egregiously, unforgivably bad.

...finches, doves and sparrows. And the quail, they just wait at the bottom of the feeder and pick up the spillage.

The house sparrows are taking over, it's like turf wars between the .

Carrot cake, two with walnuts for us... and two gluten free with no walnuts for the in-laws. The cream cheese frosting is ready but I'm waiting for the second set to cool down.

For the folks who want the deets...

yes... similar bike at Costco for $1499 that's way more affordable. I just honestly don't get the pricing for these though.

I really do wonder who's affording that brave new world. It's probably a good time to re-read some Aldous Huxley.

I mean, I love it... but $5k on an electric bike? That just feels irresponsible. I want to save the world, but I also need to be able to afford it.

It's like Hungry Hungry Hippos, but with one bird.

Fun fact: Utah Division of Workforce Services uses Tim Carleton's "Opus No. 1" as hold music (with intermittent voiceover "All of our agents are assisting other clients. Please stay on the line and your call will be answered in the order in which it was received.")

Happy holidays to y'all. This has been a particularly difficult year, and although we made these a while ago the principle is sound - "Weebles wobble but they don't fall down". We're not punching bags, we're weebles. #WeebleOn #WeBelong

Asking for my friend Carol.

Wouldn't a directed radio wave originating from our planet look like a conical spiral & not a straight line? What would a radio wave from earth look like if it was observed from Tau Ceti, which is about 12 light years away?

What would a radio signal from our planet look like - and if it originated on earth what that signal would look like in space?The earth rotates & orbits the sun, which is spinning, etc.

Regardless of her past, who trafficks her now? Are you saying that the now first lady of the United States has no agency to speak of her history & make decisions that defend herself? Is she not in a position to exercise power that most of us will never have? Why does she not defend others?

Don't take away her agency. Regardless of anyone's past, they can make a decision and walk with it. To suggest that the (once again) first lady of the United States is unable to fend for herself is patently wrong. And lest you forgot:

What's a word that blends dark humor and irony, that isn't satire? Because that's what this is. And whatever that word is, it should be the word of the year.

I was so out of my league.

@anggreen.bsky.social this hottie wants your number, what do you do? It's 1991 so you can't swipe left or right.

Also, happy birthday my love. I can't believe that you chose to hang out with me; mr. weight line haircut pop-swatch acidwash-suspenders-with-one-strap guy. But this was East Bay then.

At this point I'm far more likely to buy a Utah Grizzlies jersey than one from a biilionaire-owned club that's tearing apart downtown with my taxpayer money. The Mammoths successfully destroyed the Coyotes AND the Grizzlies.

I give zero fucks at this point. Utah Medicaid, after my original application was submitted on Sept 22 and countless revisions and hiccups, just shuts everything down with no explanation, and no notice. Literally 3 months to the day.

Weeeeeelllllllll..... they are valid Christian holidays that can be observed by Christians anywhere. I don't think there are any truly worldwide holidays, even New Years is dependent on the calendar you follow?

Are you sure it's not "ham-dingier" and you just read it fast?
