Gender is a spectrum from just wanting have fun to being back in town, and to varying degrees, each of us contains attributes of both, which is a beautiful thing

whats the etymology of "keen" becoming the standard word for describing one's "attention to detail"
describing your "professional skills" to strangers is such a weirdly infantilizing social ritual

i'm not smart enough to properly theorise about this but it seems to me that much of the thinking behind the widespread adoption of "AI" (besides just the controlling and replacing workers stuff) replicates the "markets as automatons that solve knowledge problems"

There is a famous mantra from the movie Field of Dreams: "If you build it, they will come." This applies very well to the punishment bureaucracy. It is not the solution to what ails the human spirit, our collective society, or the desperate planet. Never let anyone scare you into forgetting that.
