Can't understand people who think it's just inevitable that we all accept the use of LLMs in publishing, like it's gonna just be impossible not to capitulate to Sam Altman.

‘No drinking water was poisoned in the making of this book’ doesn’t seem too high a bar to clear.

Books, poems, film, etc. may require retraining a brain to slow down.

And it's important bc while scrolling social media pushes the happy button, it rarely provides actual happiness. It's like food with no nutrients; your brain ate a lot but it's still starving for things that scrolling can't give.

Re-reading @daviddemchuk.com's RED X for a fun reason I can tell you about soon, and man this thing is a heater. A mosaic of pain and anxiety and loss, sprawling but tight, mysterious but immediate and frightening. Banger.

Consider making 2026 the Year of the Personal Website. Even a little thing on Neocities works. It’s just nice to have a home base on the internet that you don’t have to deal with bsky mods are random popping into every post and if something goes wrong with your host, you just move it elsewhere

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

Having brain-killing LLM slop forced upon you is a human rights violation, and you should say so with your whole chest. This technology kills people's cognitive skills, and I will not have that violence done to me without a fight.

I'm slowly coming around to the idea that genAI can be art, BUT--

The medium is the message, and the message of AI is "I'm a mediocre asshole who needs an Earth-killing plagiarism machine to do my creation for me, and also drink Coca-Cola and eat at McDonalds."

i love how much drama there is in the online fountain pen enthusiast community, especially when it involves hexes from one of my favourite authors
OK there this should work

Fully old enough to remember when the term "AI" wasn't forcibly synonymous with corporatocratic kleptocracy.

Ok, we all realize Carney is just as evil as Harper, right?
Great.
If you don't already, start talking to other folks about this horror (and the other current genocides!) Find others who share the desire to stand up & build a better, more just world. Liberals will never save us.

The way tech companies constantly do stuff that nobody asked for really tells you a lot about their bigger ideology. They tell themselves that you will like it over time. What they mean is you’ll learn to endure it, or you’ll give up. quality of UI is not actually anywhere on their radar
new iOS update is sleek and also defaults in Music to “you must want songs transition as they would on a dance floor.” so many people will wonder why they can’t just listen to an album. Apps > Music > Song Transitions > toggle off.
