Since I was a kid, looking for ways my father might turn things around and be the dad I saw other kids have, in person or on TV, I've had a fascination with redemption arcs, bizarro universes, and heel-face-turns.

I think about that with a lot of conservatives.

Some winner on X calls accessibility and difficulty controls on Doom "woke."

Like... what does language even mean, anymore?

Sometimes Imposter Syndrome and Executive Function look like:

"I can't do this. I can't fucking do this. I'm no fucking good and I'm not worthy of the work and why do people waste their time with me and why do I waste my time and I'm never gonna hit deadline and..."

All while writing, DOING it.

Well. A shame. I've liked Targrt for years. But I don't defend shit practices just because I'm a fan. Justification is the mark of a guilty conscience failing to change behavior.
So Target got real comfy thinking us millennial moms won’t take our basic girl bits to Costco & Aldi after they cut DEI programs to satisfy the new administration.

Big mistake. Huge.

Best thing Sanctuary Cities can do, now, is work towards as much logistical self-sufficiency as we can. The current admin is trying to cut us off and wear us down. The less we depend on external elements, the less leverage they have. Plus its just good long term development. Greentech, hydro...

Anything like this for Chicago?

I shouldn't let my confidence be easily shaken, but it's a hard-won prize, and I spent a lot of my life building up an addiction to self-doubt.

Being a white American citizen won't keep you safe. When they control the paperwork, bureaucracy can exile you regardless of the facts.

It's also incremental suppression of rights. Won't be long before they'll kick you out as a traitor or seditionist or deviant.

Have a plan.

@pkcrash.bsky.social Well well well. How do, stranger. :)

I would need a few more hands in order to count how many CR employees are volunteering, donating, and organizing relief efforts across Los Angeles.

I am so proud to work alongside them 🥹

We're going to need to have serious discussions about building cities designed to survive the world we've created.

The conspiracy angle is that some will profit by that reconstruction, and it's hardly new for that to inspire sabotage to force the market.

Tonight's Vampire: The Requiem

William: Aims his pistol loaded with Etheric rounds in the chest of his possessed friend Nux amidst a whirlwind of ghosts. "I'm not shooting you, Nux!"

His eyes cloud over, black ectoplasmic sight, looking at his grandsire Ioan Dragolescu.

"I'm shooting you."

Even if AI became theoretically ethical or economically supportable, until we advance our clean energy generation, storage, and transmission capability to sustain it and ourselves safely, there's no conversation to be had.

I lost a friend who refused to get out of the way of a hurricane.

I don't want to lose friends who refuse to leave when the world is on fire.

I can probably adapt to making this space my own, but I want to know how we can keep it free of AI shit.

It's discouraging knowing success brings the attention of big corporate powers that'll squeeze the joy out of things.

I genuinely enjoy Facebook. Have for years. I like the format and functionality. Commercials suck, but I could live with them.

But AI-gen users?

...why? Why?
