This is narcissism masquerading as philosophy — the technophile elite are not recognizing a new soul in AI, they're falling in love with their creation, staring at their own reflection in a digital pool.

It is the ultimate in solipsism and has its roots in a pathological fear and denial of death.

But wait, there's more!

A reminder that gas-powered leafblowers are nightmare devices that are bad for you, bad for your lawn, and very bad for the environment. They fume and scream and kill the world all so you can messily and ineffectively move leaves around, leaves which are generally supposed to stay where they fell.

Forest scene with thick snow, painting.

‘The night is darkening round me,
The wild winds coldly blow;
But a tyrant spell has bound me
And I cannot, cannot go.
The giant trees are bending
Their bare boughs weighed with snow.
And the storm is fast descending,
And yet I cannot go.’ ~ E Brontë #BookWormSat

What a year we've had TODAY

what a year we’ve had this week

I'm trying to remember when I walked through something that looked like this, that's the only way I can explain what I'm watching here

Spent all day with my mom at a pre-thanksgiving social. I just get online and find out Trump is now a...*checks notes* socialist?! What...is...happening.😳

To everyone saying that people in our military already know not to follow unlawful orders, how do you explain almost 100 civilians murdered on fishing boats in the Caribbean so far?

If you want a sense of how far the surveillance state has expanded inside the United States, look at what federal authorities are doing on our highways.

At the end of the day, don’t we all just want a bookshelf with a rolling ladder?

It was me.

Glad I switched all my important emails to a different email provider last week. Now I just have junk I only need for a short time still on gmail, and then I'm deleting the whole thing.

On Transgender Day of Remembrance, we remember those whose lives have been lost to transphobic hate and violence.

Everyone in London and around the world deserves to live with dignity and be safe from harm.

Protect the children*!

(*almost definitely immigrant children, working almost definitely an illegal amount of hours, for an almost definitely illegally low wage, in harsh conditions, doing grueling work. But yes, the lax oversight on pesticides is the big issue here)

One day you people will realise that "I think you should lose your human rights for the greater good" is not a winning pitch.
Especially if you will then blame that group for your loss and gloat as they lose their rights anyway.

Ah, see, I too thought she was saying she'd never heard of fairies, and I was very surprised by that. But given the amount of different spellings and terminology used, it is much less surprising that she had just found one she hadn't heard before. Either way, being nice has never hurt anyone.

Is this the "open source" question? I saw that last night. Whatever happened to the 'if you haven't got anything nice to say...' rule?

Zack Polanski, the Green party leader, may have been thinking about people like Wes Streeting (see 4.16pm) when he wrote this piece for Huffpost UK saying his party would target Labour MPs who have defended the asylum policy. He said: 44 Out of more than 400 Labour MPs, barely 20 are standing up against these grotesque asylum proposals. Twenty. That’s not courage, that’s capitulation.Those Labour MPs who are silent should be ashamed. Truly ashamed. The suggestion of confiscating jewellery, to drag children into detention centres, this is indecent, immoral, and indefensible. And let me say this clearly: we will challenge every single Labour MP who goes along with this. It’s not enough to just say you regret it or you're sad about it. Voters still have a moral compass, even if Labour have smashed theirs to pieces.

Based. 🗳 💚
