Life really began with #sobriety in 2005. But I like to say I'm a #grateful #alcoholic b/c I had some amazing experiences including #Crabber #Seiner in […]

Today I learned the #constitution of the #unitedstates establishes a form of governance called a #RepresentativeDemocracy.

Ergo, there are 342.9 million #billionaires in the United States.

Who knew?

Years ago now, I watched a talk from @cstross on #ai in which he argues #corporations are really the original AI.

Artificial in their hive mind capacity. Artificial in their immortality.
And artificial in their amorality.

Ultimately, they are far more dangerous than AI itself, because their […]

"Some people just need killin.'"

Overheard today from a *devout christian* colleague discussing the #warcriminal #venezuela "drug boat" killings.

#JesusWept ...

He'll hear my opinion on the matter as soon as a maximum embarrassment opportunity raises it's head.

Yes, yes. I’m sure the applications will only be #humanitarian. I’m positive the funding for the #research was provided by humanitarian sources — not military contractors.

Yes, I’m certain won’t be used for nefarious reasons.

Just “search and rescue.” […]

As a #soccer fan, I gotta actually hand it to #FIFA for recognizing #trump for the #narcissist that he is — and to manipulate him through that achilles heel.

Given the #worldcup is in North America this summer, the #orangeragebaby has enormous power to disrupt the smooth execution of the […]

Cyndi, girls don’t *just* want to have fun.

They want to have fun with people that aren’t #racist, #homophobic, #bigoted, little crybaby #MAGA bitches that can’t hold a job because they’re too egotistical to play well with others who might have differing opinions.

Please work on those finer […]

What makes you cry?
Beauty makes me cry.
Or, more precisely, irony.
That humans are capable of creating such incredible beauty. But it's so rare.
So often we're just nasty ugly creatures destroying everything we touch.

A video like this will get me sobbing, as it did this morning […]

The author makes the observation that #ai is inverting the #attentioneconomy because we no longer have to give attention to produce quality.

My take?
I tooted the other day that, if you'd never seen a humanoid robot, but suddenly did one day walking down the street, your first human impulse […]

Just emailed the #nyt tip line to let them know #mayormamdani and I were close during our formative years and that I have dirt on him.

We weren't. And, I don't.

But, I don't envy the diatribe that reporter is going to get if they make the mistake of reaching out to me.

You can do the same […]

#capitalism was always going to end us this way. It's a feature, not a bug.

Capitalism creates incredible wealth for a tiny minority, who are free to destroy the source of the wealth in their attempts to monopolize it, and then are free to pick up camp and move to destroy the next greenest […]
