I'm probably way behind the ball on this one, but #genAI written in lowercase looks like someone mispronouncing 'genie'. Quite fitting, really.

old Soviet joke for our times:
Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to.
Guy says: “looking for an obituary.”
Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.”
Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.
Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.
Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

what I (somewhat fumblingly) told a group of students last year is that you are trying to “glimpse your own cryptid.” what appears to people later as a solid aesthetic vision just begins as that personal glitch between trees.

Writing down the wild shit that happens in my dreams serves only to consolidate the unconscious worldbuilding and now I have to contend with plot twists every night which really makes it difficult to focus on work.
Makes for some fantastic writing prompts though.

A fun thing about the song You Can Call Me Al is that over the course of just a few decades you can go from "haha this song is neat, that bassline is sick" to "why is Paul Simon making all these cutting remarks about me personally"
