AI produces the version of Aloy that misogynist gamers say they want BY DEFAULT. It will always be lipgloss and smooth skin. It will always work in service of the desires of the assumed-to-be straight white male viewer.
AI women exist to comfort men who hate real women.

I got this weird yarn that’s like a white cotton lattice tube with wool blown into it, and I’m not sure what the benefit of such a process might be (aside from no splitting into separate threads like some yarns tend to do when you crochet) but it’s neat and I like it.

Holy shit.
I’m blazing through this book, and I am even using a highlighter—I don’t highlight shit, I’m a delinquent.
I think this book is rewiring my brain.

If you can sum up a work of art in a prompt, then it has no reason to exist.
We make art when other, more straightforward forms of communication fail us.

I need you to understand that sometimes when it seems like I won’t stop posting, it’s because I’m trapped under a cat.

Doug Ford gave $10M to the owners of a strip club.
Let me say this again for you:
Doug Ford’s conservative government gave $10 million Canadian dollars to the owners of a high end strip club.
Doug wants Toronto to be a playground for the ultra rich. This is fucking ridiculous.

I’m still thinking about Trump having the gall to hire half naked women to dance at his Gatsby party, while the government is shut down in an attempt to hide his sex crimes, and how Sam Lake thought this dance was funny, when in fact this is just how Tiktok has convinced white people to dance now…

At the beginning of the season, Chris put this crackerjack sticker on my hat and now multiple people have asked me where they can buy this specific hat with the stripey bit on it, which means I can never take it off.

It took till maybe the second inning to fill up, but it was pretty full—they only sold tickets for seats where you could see the screen.
