The algorithm is smart. When it engages in anti-social behavior, punish it. Turn off your screen and walk away, enjoy the world, deny the beast its angry meal

Every day I worked in IT I asked why the fuck we payed money for that OS
WHY ARE OS COMPONENTS ROUTINELY TRYING TO ACCESS THINGS THEY DON'T HAVE PERMISSION TO ACCESS?

WHY IS IT BY DESIGN?

WHY DOES IT CREATE A WARNING IF IT'S BY DESIGN?

WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS LYING?

WHY DO YOU EMPLOY SUCH USELESS ASSHOLES TO WRITE & DOCUMENT AN OPERATING SYSTEM USED BY 1.6 BILLION PEOPLE?

easiest example of how pervasive social media addictions actually are and how illprepared people are to resist or address them. the site sucks. you get AI bots, you get porn bots, or you get nazis. its like using the internet in the pop-up pre adblock era, and people still find excuses to stay

This reminds me of my class analysis of Cardi B who comes from the trenches of an exploitative system she now seeks to rule over

"I don't gotta dance i make money moves" /
"I'm a boss you a worker bitch I'm don't fuck with you"
if you rewatch the 1980s film Revenge of the Nerds you'll notice it was never about changing the system. It was about taking control of the system. The Nerds have the same ill intentions as the jocks just use different methods.

Feels like we all need to add as much pro-social, Mr Rogers like activity as possible just as a homeostatic response to all the ambient evil floating around right now.

Anyway I just signed up to read with little kids on Wednesday mornings before work.

This is one of those moments where I, one already subscribed to this belief, must ask. (I'd reply but..)

What took ya so long? Has this changed the way you relate to other multi-trillion-dollar companies that are obviously without moral backbone?
That's another subscription service cancelled. They clearly don't need my woke-ass money 👍

I saw the words Cisco and AI in a headline today.

Just gonna skim past that because I don't even want to think about the implications

If your tech is actually intended to save humanity, u wouldn't put it behind a paywall and start international trade wars about it and pass a bunch of laws prohibiting other countries from using the same components you are idk just a thought

The Chinese have developed their own open-source Hawk Tuah meme coin and the rug pull only uses one-tenth of the computing power and scams 15x the number of horny victims.

You're like "oh I want to get into knitting"

But it's 2027. You know you're gonna have to hunt the wasteland for 6 months before you find the tiny enclave of knitters surrounded by the smoking ruins of their previous communities.

This one really cemented "hey I want to draw patterns" as a goal. My best friend told me about a dream she had featuring a blue beetle, and I was inspired to make this!

Cicadas, Mugwort (to promote visions), beetles.

Sharing a bit of the process behind "The Snow Queen". I still can’t believe we got snow this year. It feels like magic! ❄️
