The left better start figuring out how to weaponize today's decision rather than just (rightfully) criticizing it.

- Go back into Judge Kaczmaryk's court to dissolve all of his nationwide orders.

- Pass gun bans and insist any order applies only to plaintiffs.

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

I hate when I go to bed early on a Saturday night and wake up Sunday morning only to discover we’ve gone to war in the Middle East without the consent of Congress. 😡

I'll probably be asleep by the time you wake up tomorrow, but have fun.

Not very punchy, but kind of poetic, given I'm terminal and all.

Oh yes. “not X, not Y, Z.” Once you start noticing the patterns it’s impossible not to see it everywhere. What worries me is that now if your writing is a little too polished people assume AI. I hate that I think about this as I’m writing but I’ll probably also be avoiding that one going forward 

The concessio hurts me more than reluctantly retiring my dramatic emdash pivot. That’s the spice of my argument style! I don’t know who I am if I can’t “it’s not just X, it’s Y” you to death 😭

Honestly, it's only because I would eat a T-Rex that I still eat chicken. At this point, I don't consume any other meat. PETA gave me a really convincing argument here.

Life advice

AI has decisively killed my love affair with the em dash and concessive arguments. The tell is unmistakable, and it's all over certain genres right now.

tweet from B, @wwxwashere. Me: I only write for my own enjoyment. Me writing: Three panels of a man looking distressed.

I think it's going pretty well, you guys

And the world is better for the brief frolic, no one can convince me otherwise!

Meme of guy checking out a girl in red while walking with a girl in blue. Guy: me sitting down to write. Girl in blue: actually writing. Girl in red: OSHA. Reading safety regulations for two hours

It's uh...part of the process? At least I'm in good company!

When someone asks how my writing is going but I’ve spent the last 6 hours of my life researching a bunch of tiny details that probably won’t even make it into the story because ✨ worldbuilding ✨ #writingcommunity

Here’s the thing, if they are picking up folks working in the country illegally, I’m going to need to see some white guys also being arrested for employing people working illegally in the country.

Otherwise, it’s just racism.

Dude is so real for showing how quickly everything goes to shit with #ALS -- people just can't conceptualize how awful it is to live in a state of active decay. Fast loss of functionality, slow death. It. SUCKS.

@jpbrammer so sorry for my delay in getting back with you! I have been beset by calamities

Cautiously hopeful for this and neural tech!

I check in with ChatGPT every few months and the rate of development is mind blowing. The conversation is not unlike speaking to a people pleasing low level coworker. I worry that at some point I won’t be able to tell the difference anymore.

I can talk myself into circles about AI. It has so many wonderful possibilities and yet, given how awful humans are, every advancement in this space terrifies me.

Incidentally, the X-Files walked so Black Mirror could run. I had to watch that show with the lights on 😭

AI system resorts to blackmail if told it will be removed In a fictional scenario, the model was willing to expose that the engineer seeking to replace it was having an affair.

You will never see me more polite than when I’m requesting help from devices.

Jason Mantzoukas on #Taskmaster brings me so much joy. Been a fan since he played Rafi on The League. Love this man’s chaotic energy 🥰

I get that--even as someone who has been dutifully living this metal life for decades, there are still PLENTY of bands left for me to discover 🥰 we headbang to what we can while we can

LMAO I'm good, I swear it was just a soft reset. Incidentally, amazing band:

Oops, I think I went catatonic for a couple of weeks there. My bad, I just don’t want to be alive anymore so I mentally checked out of this hellscape of seething anger, pain and disappointment lol

Anyway, what did I miss?
