There are no words for what I want to do to anyone who thinks this is acceptable.

That's why I'm so against ChatGPT. I'm against letting a machine do your homework for you. I think you should cling to Doing Your Homework Yourself like it's the last opportunity you have to liberate yourself from mental enslavement. Because it basically is.

Anyway shout out to Kai Cenat.

The best company to be in.

I'd be such a great grifter. I'm extremely good at lying, enough to do it at a semi-pro level.

can u also get me into a book club of over 5000 passionate readers and create a cinematic trailer for my book

I'm far too ethical a person to write a bunch of blog posts about how Cascade and Blight are incredible novels worthy of the Nobel Prize for literature. Probably.

165 Massacred Schoolgirls in Iran — and the Silence That Exposes the West’s Moral Selectivity These were not combatants. They were not militants. They were children seated at their desks, pens in their hands, notebooks open before them, studying, whispering to classmates, and imagining futures that stretched decades ahead.

165 Massacred Schoolgirls in Iran — and the Silence That Exposes the West’s Moral Selectivity | When deaths of children generate outrage in one context but indifference in another, the moral language surrounding human rights begins to lose its integrity.

I feel like it would just take one Pokémon looking at Pikachu and asking “why doesn’t he need to live in the ball?” to lead to some fuckin changes in that society

I think about this more often than I should.

This is my new favourite website. It's delightfully fun.

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

A two-headed masked luchador wearing two different masks: one a blue-green and gold classic design and the other green with a spread-wing eagle design. He's wearing a blue singlet and standing in a slightly awkward but still hopefully sufficiently menacing manner. He's framed in a. gold-colored frame with a blue gradient background with wobbly white lines radiating out around the heads. Lettering above and below the frame reads 'Quizás Suceda Hoy' which I believe is Spanish for 'Maybe it will happen today'.

A photo of a light-colored cat with a gray face and ears and wide blue eyes. Unknown forces are holding up to the cat’s ear the handset of a beige antique-type touch tone phone. A rectangular speech bubble with a jagged tail has been drawn on the photo to indicate it is the sound coming out of the handset. Words inside the bubble read, ‘Maybe it will happen today…’

My students took part in a huge competition that's a very big deal for us, and they absolutely crushed it under a lot of pressure, and I keep getting choked up because I'm so proud of them.

Ah, interesting gambit, let's just check how pivoting from reliable software people actually use to an AI focused subscription service is going for Adobe real quick

I tried it out when it first showed up because I'll try any new tech but quickly gave it up when I realized it was 1) incredibly harmful and 2) absolutely useless.

Inside the Underground Safe Houses Sheltering Immigrants From ICE

Historically speaking, not a great sign

Rachel A. Rosen 2025 Award Eligibility. Blight (The Sleep of Reason Book 2), novel, What If We Kissed While Sinking a Billionaire's Yacht (Antifa Lit Journal Vol 1), short story, Wizards & Spaceships, podcast/fancast. The entire thing is a scrapbook aesthetic with bats and moths.

Self promotion is always awkward and even more so when the world is going to hell, but hey, the Aurora Awards opened up for nominations today and I have three works that are eligible. Consider giving me a nomination if you're a CSSFA member! www.csffa.ca

If you think Claude is the ethical AI, I don't even know what to say to you.

I bought Procreate because of this (and it's a great piece of software). Also retrospectively glad I bought Wyze cameras after they ran an ad parodying Ring's surveillance dog commercial.

OMG I adore this. I want to write something worthy of it (actually for one of my future projects this style would be perfect).

God your stuff is so good. I wish my trilogy were done so that I could hire you to redo all the covers.

It's just murder. Everyone is "gasp! what about the children???" when it comes to them reading library books but bombing a school full of little girls is just sparkling regime change for a prosperous democratic future.

Oh neither am I but I could fake mediocre output the old fashioned way if I needed to.

The good news is that when someone uses this phrase, you are free to ignore anything else that comes out of their mouths.

My spicy take for the evening is that the phrase "AI is here to stay" is a thought-terminating cliché invoked to shut the brains off of anyone engaging in the discussion of or debate about LLMs.

It really is either you support trans rights or you support Hitler 2.0

So, consider how this goes:

They deploy ICE to remove people who are “illegal”

Kavanaugh says US citizens will be fine, once they show their IDs (sure, buddy)

Kansas just showed us they can & will invalidate the LEGALLY ISSUED IDs of CITIZENS immediately & without warning

Because they want to

This is extra funny to me because I used to work for NASCAR.
