let your haters be your waiters at the table of success

One of the many reasons AI can't produce good writing is it can't hate its own writing. It can't think to itself "Maybe I'm illiterate" during the writing process. And that's essential

Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

let’s not be sillllyyyyy we can identify artistic movements by how artists have responded to culture, technology, and politics and we’re not exempt from that / it feels depressing af in this house I want to have fun

can't talk, shopping for hildegard of bingen soup

At approximately 8:30 p.m. ET, Khalil and his wife, a U.S. citizen who is eight months pregnant, had just unlocked the door to their building when two plainclothes DHS agents forced their way in behind them. The agents initially refused to identify themselves, instead asking Khalil to confirm his identity before detaining him without explanation. The agents proceeded to threaten his wife, telling her that if she remained by his side, they would arrest her too.

Professor who teaches African American studies here. If your school eliminates or bans it, I will personally host free zoom sessions, provide resources, or answer questions for students, parents/guardians, or teachers who are interested in learning or discussing African American studies.

being bisexual is so dangerous when you're stupid

Great to get out last night to see "Asylum," a new collaborative work by @olijohn.bsky.social and Neeko Paluzzi at the School of the Photographic Arts: Ottawa. I'll be going back to take a longer and closer look...

gonna drink a red bull and then organize gemstones. this is “doing drugs” to me

How a Colombian City Cooled Dramatically in Just Three Years With “green corridors” that mimic the natural forest, the Colombian city is driving down temperatures -- and could become five degrees cooler over the next few decades.

In Medellín, a city of 2.5 million people in Colombia, the Green Corridors urban restoration project has planted 880,000 trees and 2.5 million plants, reducing pollution and bringing temperatures down by 2 degrees C. #ShareGoodNewsToo reasonstobecheerful.world/green-corrid...

I love my Trans friends and followers so much!

the only space to move right on trans issues is to go full DeSantis and not allow transition for adults or even tiny accomodations like correct pronouns on IDs. And even if Dems do that, conservatives will just demand even more. YOU CANNOT APPEASE BIGOTS.

Race and gender. America is a deeply racist and misogynist nation. That is what it means.

This is going to affect us all profoundly, disastrously and long-term, but let’s take a minute to send love and solidarity to everyone in the US who’s justly terrified right now

I have adopted Ta-Nehesi Coates position on the Israeli-Palestinan discourse where talking about the "complexity" of the situation is a red herring for avoiding the morality of it, which is *extremely* simple.

Breaking: People’s faces do different things at different times

it's so important to live every day in a way that is joyous and authentic and also makes your haters sick

"Majorities of Americans say most people in the U.S. don’t place enough value on men who are caring, open about their emotions, soft-spoken or affectionate."

Trees and land absorbed almost no CO2 last year. Is nature’s carbon sink failing? The sudden collapse of carbon sinks was not factored into climate models – and could rapidly accelerate global heating

It is never acceptable to assume releasing a tonne of carbon is fine because it'll get eaten back up by hungry little trees and soil clumps.

It has always been a grimy cheat. It is shocking how deeply ingrained the 'mop it up with trees' thinking is across the entire climate world!!

DOCTOR: How would you rate your pain on a scale from 1-10?
ME: I don't know, maybe like, a seven?
DOCTOR: Liar. You're a liar. We measured your pain against the new Universal Pain Index that accurately ranks all the pain in the world and it's barely a three. We're telling everyone. Everyone you know

Does anyone know of any other examples of where a video synchs perfectly to other audio, like the This Is America video clip set to Call Me Maybe?

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #1,796,589!

I am absolutely shocked that banning people from being homeless didn't fix homelessness
