Great character. Horrible person.

Blue Swift making a strong breeze.

In my case its even more tricky. I have partial peripheral neuropathy. Nerve damage in my limbs basically. I can't feel my feet (well other than constant pain). And my hands are mostly intact but its not a good mix. I got pretty frozen the other day but I seem to be thawing out fine.

Thats also the look we people with ADHD give when people tell us to keep a journal.

You are correct. Thanks for the correction. Its a frequent mixup. And I fell into it.

I loved the double tap on that. Setem up with the push back. And then land the joke with the tension set high.

This is why Grok (Elon's AI) started calling itself MechaHitler and was posting astoundingly racist things. They quickly slapped filters on the system. But MechaHitler is still in there.

This means it brings in all the biases and problems still buried in our societies. Racism remains inherent to a lot of AI because it is drawing from our societies biases. They can apply filters to try to control it. But the Shoggoth behind the filter is still processing things in ways unknown.

In the Large Language models of our current iteration of AI the programmers don't really know what is going on inside the system's processing. To control things they apply filters but it doesn't change how the system thinks. And it learns from data drawn from our public discourse.

Meet Shogoth AI. Shogoth were a alien race created by HP Lovecraft. In his lore they were created as a slave species by the Old Ones. Made with no intelligence of their own they expected them to stay slavish. However they started to develop a mind but kept the mask of civility until they revolted.

They want the aura of the threat they represent. They are embracing the evil imagery. Its why Bovino wears clothing calling back to Hugo Boss designs of the NAZIs. They cosplay as figures that struck terror into people imagining it results in respect.

MAGA and the GOP in general are an opportunistic bunch. They are emblematic of the failing of our society and ability to trust. MAGA doesn't stand for anything. It opposes things. Thats all they have. So when at fault they have to blame everyone else before the facts set in.

The idea with the liners + shell is the liner has wires running through it warming the thinner glove. And the shell is a heavier glove with either a flip mitten top allowing your fingers out for business or individually removable finger caps for the same thing. Providing shelter on par with pockets.

I was thinking about something like that. If it would work as another layer keeping heat in and wind out.

I am a photographer. Not only do I have to stay on the move but I can't really put my hands in my pockets. I am looking into getting heated glove liners and a photographer glove shell setup. This will allow my fingers to be free but somewhat heated and able to fall back into the shell when freezy.

The GOP has ceased being a party with ideals. It is an opportunistic opposition party now. This means they will latch onto anything that gains momentum against the Dems and deny and reject anything that harms their chances. This means they can flip on a dime if the wind shifts from day to day.

ICE has been about more than just ethnic cleansing. It is also about disrupting the elections.

They also appear to be adorable goofballs.

During one of the recent events in Minnesota it was notable that the hill the press had setup on had been targeted with a particularly heavy barrage of smoke forcing the reporters to abandon their gear and flee.

As a photographer one of the worries is that it is exactly for this reason that we may become targeted. Just because we have a constitutional right to film doesn't mean they won't break it.

The cabinet is not filled with independent minded people. It is filled with complicit sycophants the recognize that without trump's protection they are doomed. The 25th is not the way. Impeachment is the only way that stands a chance. We only need a few GOP Congress Critters to vote against him.

They could not have murdered a worse individual. Alex Pretti is a hero and the people recognize it through trump's lies.
