look around your room. see how many cups you have that you haven't brought back to the kitchen. what does this mean? that's right: you don't have nearly enough cups. go get more cups.

worst forest/trees problem in generations is that a canto is A SECTION OF A LONG POEM. THAT'S IT. YOU DIDN'T WRITE A CANTO BECAUSE YOU THOUGHT THE WORD LOOKED COOL ON YOUR MEMOIR. CANTOS ARE POEMS. THAT LANGUAGE IS DYNAMIC DOES NOT MAKE YOUR SLAMBOOK A CANTO AMERICAN OR OTHERWISE

all technology in the hands of capitalists is tricknology liable to cause psychosis, destroy families, and provoke genocides. ai really isn’t worse than social media. at all. in fact, social media capitalists being the same ones pushing ai exacerbates both. please, notice abusive class dictatorship.

The cyberpunk dystopia is reality. How do we understand the ways in which we’re being programmed, the flavors of the fascism?

Asma Mhalla’s exploration of the two-headed Trump-Musk beast and what it signifies is a banger. I’m reading it in French, will keep an eye out for an English translation.

If you're interested, this tribute to Alice Wong was written by one of the people who knew her best

A Tribute to an Oracle, Alice Wong
Alice had the ability to look to the future and a world where laws and attitudes did not keep disabled people poor, pitied, and isolated.

Over on X, people like Nick Fuentes thrive

On Bluesky, autistic disability advocate AJ Link, president of the Nat’l Disabled Legal Professionals Assn (and an expert in space law) is banned

Singal? Bluesky changed the TOS to accommodate him

The racism and fascism are overt
Link's perma ban is wrong and should be reversed.

And what illustrates it being EVEN MORE WRONG, are recent suspensions with restoration with much much more egregious offenses in the same line of what Bluesky claims Link was banned over.

the way these mediocre and unprincipled tools became widely adopted, due to temporary circumstances, thus sanctifying mediocre and unrigorous dilettantes as a technical elite, is upstream of the palo altoid tech culture which debrained the intellectual elite class who hold the ear of the bourgeoisie
Wow 80% bad-faith responses, and people lecturing the creator of Flask here and the creator of Django/datasette in the comments on why AI is useless for software engineering...
Is this platform still massively against AI or has it moved more towards acceptance?

To be clear Lizza’s story is that Nuzzi sat on important matters of national significance for personal benefit and he’s sat on these details until he could personally benefit.

All of DC media needs to be thrown into the sea. Anyone who defends these people is a goddamn clown.

Widespread presence is necessary for a backlash in the first place. it is m, at best, a gesture towards an argument—certainly not an argument that could dismiss the quoted post as arising from a “bluesky bubble”. Leftwing Politics is famously not in line with popular consensus in bourgeois societies

Great post, btw, to demonstrate why people are so thoughtlessly down with LLM tools: the typical person is functionally illiterate and hostile to the valorization of rigor over their slopvibes. Yes—that includes professionals like doctors. The crisis of rigor throws bourgeois society into barbarism.

The average person is enthusiastic about committing the holocaust when it’s heavily propagandized. You quote dunked someone for talking about leftist politics, not the Volk Values which vindicate your lotus eating.
this is a bluesky bubble opinion. 800M+ people use chatgpt every week. I hate Facebook and Instagram and I wish they didn’t exist, but 3B and 2B people use them every month, respectively. it’s very hard to picture a mass or even a niche left backlash against them
i think tech and ai positive people are going to be in for a big shock when anti tech and anti ai sentiment becomes a major part of leftwing politics going forward especially as datacenters continue to destroy communities and raise electricity bills

I’m back on the library hold list. 13 days. I am up to my eyeballs in so many other books and audiobooks, but I can’t wait to get Baldwin back.
This James Baldwin biography is so goooood. I love the library!
