I’ve never been a fan of the hyper consumerist brawl that is Black Friday, especially in recent years when the discounts aren’t even good enough to justify the effort… a sword; I bought a sword…

I actually had to explain to someone recently that the AI that tells enemies in video games how to react to player inputs is NOT genAI and has existed for literal decades. they genuinely had no idea there was a difference. this shit has poisoned the well so bad.
I hate AI, but I think we should think more critically about blanket-condemning anything that could be ai. Big genAI, which steals copyrighted works, poisons our collective knowledge, and consumes unconscionable amounts of energy is BAD. On-device ai that lets me search my photos for dogs is FINE.

Life irl has been a bit hectic lately & I feel like I’ve fallen out of a lot of online spaces. To the friends in my phone, I hope you all know I still appreciate you all, even if I’m not the best at staying in touch, or posting anything at all for that matter

One would hope the obvious fact that a crazy racist billionaire can reprogram an AI bot to also be crazy racist in the blink of an eye will make anyone pause just a sec before they open up any other AI tool and treat it as gospel.

Shut the fuck up. I asked the Lady of the Lake, and she said you are unworthy of the sword Excalibur. You will never be king.

also a good time to note that any legislation pushing to harm and silence queer individuals of ANY kind will inevitably ALSO target cishet individuals who deviate in *ANY* way from their arbitrary definitions of an "acceptable" man or woman
'oh we're not like THOSE dirty gross queers! we're the good kind!' when they are done with the 'undesirable' queers they will go after you next. they don't stop and let you live just because you suck up to them and throw your own under the bus. they don't stop until we're all gone.

So, allies, here’s the best thing for you to do if you encounter bigot protesters at Pride.
Take them aside and ask them to teach you about Jesus.
