I don't like moths at all but I really like that you shared this with me so I really enjoyed this reply, thank you!!!!

Holy shit this is perfect thank you so much wtf

Hello cutie pies what's going on, could someone show me something nice that they've read or a good bsky or a nice picture or literally anything nice pls and ty

my favourite thing about gf is if we dont talk for an hour she'll come into the room and say, "so what's the situation with us"

hell yeah

good evening girlies how is everyone doing

so true 😭🙏

Also, Oxford has this flower shop that is really cute, they have all these different little bundles and you can make your own bouquet! And it's not even expensive and it's so gorgeous!!! So I made a lil bouquet for her and I'm really happy :')

hey girlies how's it going, I was pretty Mentally Unwell this week, but I'm feeling a bit better this eve :) My gf is flying into the UK tonight and I am so freaking excited to see her.

scary thought

keep us updated

I think it's really beautiful that Elon Musk did all that evil stuff for free, pro-bono evil, no one even paid him to ruin stuff, he just did it out of the evilness of his heart, that's so nice

AWWW

beautiful, just like twitter

I am 100% sure being french can never be automated away

Can you automate away love? What about whimsy, can you automate that away? What about friendship, hm? Actually, that one you can, but what about a little je ne sais quoi, hm? Can you automate that away?

I think it's just important to remember that reality is subjective and whatever you make it <3

woah I also can't believe it but I know it's true

omg we're bit buddies

I hate how much influence I have over the market 😭

I have to find a jean jacket my gf will like before she comes to the UK for EAG and takes mine, it's sort of like the race to make AGI if any of you have heard of that but the stakes are even higher because it's my favourite jean jacket

I'm about to start writing fan fiction but it's just the exact same world we're in now, except this one tw**t is different

So true Donald 🩷

Just finished preparing my presentation for my work retreat this week, wish me luck!

yeah so maybe there is this thing of like, "I feel weird about AI for xyz reasons, and here is a thing people in my social circle already know to take seriously" idk. Or maybe it's more like your last post in this thread. This is a tricky one tbh.

Like e.g. when everyone was upset about AI art, and then I think some of the arguments were kind of poor, but partly because there was so little empathy for the very real and sad fact that a lot of digital artists felt pushed out or scared.

huh that's really really interesting, I haven't thought much about where the climate / AI arguments are coming from. That sounds extremely plausible to me. Especially because there are a lot of reasons to feel bad about AI, that people kind of sneer at.

I'm glad you found it helpful Joshua! :)

Borrowed ground The trap of arguing from borrowed assumptions

I found "Borrowed ground" by @franceslorenz.bsky.social a helpful reminder—an idea that is clarified and made more useful by having a name for it.
