"is this a _" meme with the text about tension restraints

i’m running for president in 2028, this is my platform:

- no more spam texts and calls
- smaller cars with weaker headlights
- imprison every person in ice and the trump administration on a remote island for a thousand years

Here's how we handle manchildren on the Steam forums at No More Robots:

thank you <3

still periodically caught off-guard by the insanely good branding that funyuns are just fun onions

When you could code silly quizzes on Facebook, it was FULL of "what would you be in medieval times?!" etc.

I made one that nearly always answered "died as a child", "died in childbirth", "lived and died as a servant"

People got SUPER mad with it.

Everyone assumes they'll be at the top of the tree

Give the dead what they're used to! I recite psalms and Jewish prayers for my Jewish dead, but for my orisha ancestors I sing Lucumí songs and give them their traditional offerings. The dead still have to meet you where you are, but giving them what they're used to is part of our work, too!

My rule for doing that is that I give each tradition its time and space. I do orisha stuff at my orisha shrines, espiritismo at my boveda, Hermetic stuff at my Hermetic altar, &c. While they all inform me equally as a whole human being, they don't mix on their own! Good walls, good neighbors, &c.

I think it's a natural human thing to do many things, especially in contexts where there are concurrent traditions available that inform us culturally and historically; I think of it as "doing religion" rather than "being of a religion", i.e. one isn't Buddhist so much as one "does Buddhism".

I had the sound effect as my cell phone ring tone for a few years.

I'm glad that my stuff can help in at least some small way! Spirituality is like medicine: it should make our lives better, but sometimes we need multiple approaches. Therapy, exercise, diet, medication, surgery, acupuncture—it's all medicine! Ditto for all sorts of spiritual traditions.

Almanac The Adocentyn Temple Almanac (TATA) is a fine-tuned one-year almanac designed for mages, mystics, priests, pagans, and other spiritual workers containing celestial and calendrical information as a …

And the last bit of testing for this version of my almanac software is complete! I'm sure there'll be bugs to find later on (when aren't there?), but at least for now, all I've left to do for TATA v3 is work on formatting a bit more until I'm satisfied with it.

Stay tuned!

Invocations of the Seven Temples A series of seven prayers based on Islamic supplications and magical practices to be used as a meditation on holiness and the power of God, as well as to clear and sanctify an area through the powe…

When the Moon enters the first mansion, one of the prayer practices I like doing is this one, a sevenfold invocation of blessing and refuge. It's come in clutch a few times when things get rough, to boot, so I like keeping it up as a regular thing. Give it a whirl!

Start telling people to fuck off. Cultivate it as a virtue. Practice saying "Oh, fuck off" and "Oh, kiss my ass" and "Buddy, if you don't shut the fuck up right now then we're gonna have us a goddamn problem" to yourself in the mirror until they feel natural.

Civility and decorum are cudgels crafted in order to make demonstrably bad ideas easier to defend

The fact that it's considered indefensible to say things like "That doesn't make any goddamn sense" or "That's some fake shit you read on the internet and you're a jackass" in a professional setting is imo a major contributing factor in the current mess. We're Emperor's New Clothes-ing right to hell

Wake up, babe! Corollary to the Butlerian Jihad just dropped!

AI impoverishes us at every step of the process: - data centers pollute our environment - energy use drives up costs - content theft robs creators of income - the actual output is used to displace workers and depress wages - using it harms our mental health and impairs our competence - the flood of AI slop is damaging our sociopolitical landscape All in service of making a worse product - and world - to enrich a handful of already spectacularly wealthy people

While defending the luddite argument in Discord, I stumbled into this IMO succinct explanation for opposing generative AI:

At every step in the process, it impoverishes us.

We all enjoy a long day of good work, and the chance to get ourselves to a nice comfortable bed at the end of it.
