its awesome that neither mind reading nor god are real and all of the thoughts inside of your head are completely private and consequenceless forever #myprivacy
saying God aināt real is so unnecessary ššššššššššš
its actually pretty necessary for people who grew up being told "all of your thoughts are constantly monitored by an omniscient and omnipotent authority who may doom you to an eternity of torment if you think wrong" to occasionally be reminded that none of it is true at all.
Gotta tell you guys something wild in the Chinese fan sphere
So some fanartist drew a āsexyā (read: booby) version of a (cartoon) character who is traditionally very non-sexualised. Fans of the character got mad about it because itās kind of groundbreaking how that character is written and portrayed and this art totally ignores the entire point of the character. They demanded the art be deleted. In response to that other people said, well what the fanartist did may be distateful but they have every right to draw what theyāre into. The two sides fight for days and each starts a harassment campaign and even report their āopponentsāā accounts.
So far so typical. But things eventually come to a head and they decide that this will be settled by votes - not through a poll. Through donations to a childrenās education charity via each sideās portal. Whoever can get the highest amount of donation wins.
And that is how this charity received over 1 million in donations in three days lol. Oh btw the āfreedom of expressionā side won by a landslide (960k to 40k)
From now on this is how all petty fandom disputes should be settled.
happy new year -------------_--------------------

this text post felt very farcille-core :")
Gemini had the fucking GALL to get in my email and summarize a 3-line email, taking up more space than the email did visually.
Hit the āthumbs down.ā Itās like, whatās wrong??? Was our summary wrong? Were there offensive words? Thank you for helping us improve our AI tools :)
I selected āother.ā
Text box popped up. Please elaborate!
Wrote in āI can fucking readā submit comment
Then had to spend several minutes torching all my settings with a flamethrower. Let me be clear: Iām (a lawyer) notoriously picky with my words FOR GOOD REASON (lawyering) so I overwhelmingly reject Gmailās āhelpfulā little assistance. My privacy settings were set to āfull paranoiaā a little less than a year ago when I saw the writing on the wall and knew public defenders could become a target in the future. Better to lock it all down now.
Gemini had crept in there and turned ALL that shit back on. And showed itself by saying āJane Doe says sheās so sorry for your loss and offers to reschedule for Thursday at 3ā over an email from Jane Doe saying āIām so sorry for your loss. We could reschedule for Thursday at 3?ā
Why would I possibly need this. In what universe would I need this. I have eyes and a brain and a reading speed that twenty years ago was measured at 1500 wpm with full comprehension on dense scientific text. Furthermore! If I read a summary, Iām not reading what they actually wrote. If Iām not reading what they actually wrote, Iām not using my own judgment on the words and phrases that they used.
I literally donāt understand why this is helpful at all. This is just avoidance. Using LLMs to write is specifically Not Writing. Using LLMs to summarize is Not Reading. Using them to make art is Avoiding Making Art. Just READ! Just WRITE! I was not put on this fucking planet to not read and not write and not make art! Avoidance is an anxiety symptom and indulging it gives it more power.
If I had an AI to do my most dreaded task, answer the phone for clients, I wouldnāt use it. Because an AI cannot help them. An AI cannot hear the facts of their case, make appropriate noises, be thoughtful and insightful, and then give them a realistic estimate of what could happen in court. I am unique. I cannot be replaced by machine learning. I have style. I have expertise. I donāt hallucinate unless Iām having a really great Friday night and Iām off the clock.
When I need to outsource tasks from my own brain, I give them to people I know can do them and that I trust to do them right.
Fuck, it just sneaks up on you, doesnāt it?? Goddamn Gemini jumpscare right in my own fucking email
conversations overheard through the batkid com lines pt 74 (masterpost here)
Jason: *over the sound of a motorcycle speeding* -swear to god, this bitch looks me dead in the eyes, and i'm thinking 'man i'm about to get clocked aren't i?'
Dick, indignant: Hood, you can't- *breathy laugh* you can't tell somebody to their face that their child looks like the 'do the roar' kid from Shrek!
Jason, still speeding: i can if it's true. anyway, she didn't clock me but she did tell me she was gonna report me to the HOA, so i was like, fuck man not this shit again,
Dick: *cackling*
Tim: they're like your version of the galactic empire, huh?
Jason: at this point, yeah. anyway i told her not to, and that we should just-
*tires screeching*
Jason: wHAT THE FUCK IS THAT- OHHOLYSHITFUCK-
*large crash* *burst of static* *silence*
Dick: ...Hood? fuck- HOOD?
Tim, casually: ope, there he goes.
Dick, panicking: FUCK. Hood, status? Hood!? shit, who's closest to Crime Alley?
Damian: uh- i am, i think, but i don't think Hood is hurt.
Dick: what? DID YOU NOT HEAR-?!?
Damian: i know; but Red isn't worried so obviously he's fine.
Dick: HOW THE FUCK WOULD HE KNOW, HE'S IN DIAMOND DISTRICT TONIGHT!?
Tim, absently: oh yeah Hood's fine, he probably just broke his com or something.
Damian: see? his sense would have gone off.
Dick: ...his 'sense'?
Damian: Red Robin has a special Hood-sense that tells him when Akhi is in danger.
Tim: hm- um, yeah. i got exposed to a magical artifact and now i'm connected to Hood mentally.
*a beat*
Dick: what.
Damian: Hood has text me. 'somebody shot a firework at my bike and it scared me, i broke my com in the crash, tell everyone i'm not dead'. ...i'm gonna go see if he needs help.
*disconnecting ping*
*silence*
Dick, muttering: 'a firework scared me' it's like working with a fucking border collie.
Tim: *snort* i mean at least he's alive?
Dick: yeah- ok, you do not have a fucking magical connection to Jason.
Tim, amused: yeah, nah i don't.
Dick: so what the fuck is he on about?
Tim, without missing a beat: oh we've synched our fitbits to compete in weekly step-counts, so if his heartbeat gets too elevated or stops completely i'd get an alert.
*a beat*
Dick: so why does Damian-?
Tim: we just thought it was funny if he thought i was magical.
love my pumpkin
scary my pumpkin
vampires are so full of shit. "oh the human race is beneath us, you're just livestock to us" I don't think you know what livestock is. do you feed us? care for us? protect us from predators? no. you just slink around dark alleys and ambush people. that's not what a higher being does. that's a bottom feeder. a parasite. karate punches your head off
She Would Say That. She would DO that.
