Once again, the Luddites weren't anti-technology. They were anti-human exploitation.

And so am I.

I have a small footprint on FB, primarily for bagpipe-related groups. My new rule is: when I see some AI slop, it’s time to leave the site. And it works! I waste way less time.

Why I Broke Up with LA by Lena Dunham:
Coyotes kept eating my rescue dogs, and a neighbor asked how many dogs I have, and I said I just go to the shelter and get a new dog afterwards, so they said it sounds like I'm just feeding shelter dogs to coyotes, and then I started crying and moved to London.

The first person to discover a link between increased levels of CO2 and #globalwarming was a New Yorker named Eunice Newton Foote. Read her 1856 paper, and how she went unacknowledged for more than a century, here: publicdomainreview.org/collection/f... #earthday #climatechange

"Most people prefer to associate food with comfort, joy, and their grandmother’s kitchen, not the boiling of the planet. In general, it helps to focus on the appeal of the meals, rather than their lack of meat; people want to feel like they’re getting something, not being denied something."

Well, I didn't know that. Thanks! The "opposite" is true with silica gel packets, too: Put them in the oven at 150-200F for a couple of hours, and they're ready to absorb moisture again.

I believe it’s called hostile architecture and it’s 100% on purpose. Just bearable enough for folks to wait 10-20 min but not a hospitable space for unhoused folks.
