Firefox just asked me if I was "overwhelmed by tabs."
I have eight open. Eight.
Do you guys not know how people use web browsers? I have at least 50 open on my phone.
(You don't need a programmer-- I did it myself over a year ago. If you pick a n00b friendly instance like Mint, you'll be fine)
lol using AI to lie about AI is about what I expect these days
Didn't y'all JUST update to 11?
It's just one cask of Amontillado, Montressor, how much could it possibly cost, my life?
The women in my family (married and single) have ALWAYS worked. Same in my partner's family.
This also smacks of erasure of "pink collar" jobs- we had a lot of teachers and secretaries in our families, but those jobs aren't important enough to note.
Now that we know at least some of who and what are in the Epstein Files, I think that it's a really good time to interrogate why society pressures us women to be as thin and small as possible.
What has always been harmful to women and girls has gotten a hell of a lot more dark in the past few weeks
Yep. “Knowing who to be mad at is praxis” is Mariame Kaba’s quote and it is wisdom for these times. (1/2)
No, they're doing Elf on the Shelf bullshit
Hell, we're in the middle of Ramadan right now and have ANY of our kids learned anything about an actual cultural practice?
The thing about all these freak AI execs constantly going "our machine may have gained sentience?!" is that they want slaves. That they are ok with slave labor.
And *then* it always, always turns out their latest AI trick actually used slave labor somewhere in the global south.
They're slavers.
My kid is 13 and I'm starting to hear about this "leprechaun trap" bullshit as if it's been a thing around since forever and I feel like I'm losing my GODDAMNED MIND
"I shouldn't have to be nice to people who are inherently inferior to me" is driving so much of what's going on in the world right now

OH FUCK YES
Also, October? In time for my birthday AND Halloween? Somebody loves me.
It's a VERY distinct symbol!
I'm going with both.
Also, that sounds rad as hell
It is, in fact, quite easy to get a skull-and-bones tattoo that isn't a Nazi tattoo!
Citation: My skull-and-bones tattoo that I got when I was in my early 20s that isn't a Nazi tattoo.
I have a pirate flag tattoo that I got in my early 20s BECAUSE I WAS SMART ENOUGH NOT TO ACCIDENTALLY GET A WELL KNOWN NAZI SYMBOL
At best, you're arguing that he's too fucking ignorant to be an effective congressman

Anyone who's navigated ob market last 18 months could tell you this is indeed current state of things, but whew boy have we been gaslit by breathless reports about the booming stock market, which is entirely driven by AI, a technology precisely engineered to destroy as many human jobs as possible
yes yes yes yes yes
I love Moreno-Garcia. You all know this. And whew, I am loving this book.
Or anywhere, really.
We did great in Korea and Vietnam, for sure.
Which these manly men readers probably don't want to see, either.
I've been noticing that as publishing (slowly) expands to include marginalized authors, there has also proven to be a market for cis/het white guys who write marginalized characters as actual people and not stereotypes or simply to be harmed to provide the protagonist with motivation.
I saw a YouTube short earlier today where a guy asked ChatGPT to count to 200.
Guess what it failed to do multiple times?
I'm largely swerving around the current AI discourse, but I will note that there is absolutely no way to convince me that the environmental and social devastation would be worth it EVEN IF it was correct most of the time.
It's not.
I hope Chotiner sees all of our delight when he posts a new interview.
