in happier pride news i actually found this deeply heartwarming

that's solidarity baybeeee

Further context: Durham city council (Reform UK) cut funding and support for Pride. The Durham Miner's Association and other trade unions raised enough money for Durham Pride 2026 to go ahead - a direct call back to when Lesbian and Gays Support the Miners (LGSM) raised money for mining communities when Margaret Thatcher seized union funding during the miner strikes of 1984-85.

At the 1985 Labour party meet, the motion to support LGBT rights as a party was passed due to a block vote from mining unions.

Stephen Guy, the chair of the Durham Miners’ Association, said that when it became apparent Durham Pride was under threat, he took it upon himself to “encourage the trade union movement to step up and do the right thing, and stand shoulder to shoulder with the LGBT+ community […] They not only raised funds for us, but came to our communities, uplifted our spirits when they were down, and showed their solidarity.”

cathkaesque

My understanding is that the cut funding from Durham council was £2,500 - the trade union donations raised in response were worth £25,000

I guess the thing that bothers me about the endless debates about the death of the Wen remnants and how culpable any particular character is and how excusable their actions were is it often feels like the goal is either to condemn various characters as monsters who don’t deserve sympathy or to excuse them as just acting as Society expected them to. And either impulse is understandable but still irritating.

Every character in this book who’s survived to the present day is walking around under the immense weight of both victim and perpetrator trauma thanks to this culture of clan extermination and if we’re not engaging with that then what are we even doing with these characters, you know? That’s the meat, that’s the juice! Does it change how the murderer carries the weight of their act if the murdered old woman was your own mother, or your enemy’s mother, or an old sex worker nobody cared about? If you did it for revenge or personal gain or to save your own life or the lives of your family? Does it change how you carry the loss of your loved ones if you understand the reasons they were killed? If it was socially sanctioned? If they were guilty or innocent, soldiers or civilians?

Wen Ning, undead, murderer and murder victim, saving Jin Ling, child of the clan that killed his clan, of the man he murdered, from the murdered corpse of Nie Mingjue’s attempt at bloodline revenge- saving him from the danger that all these other adults put him in and couldn’t protect him from- the cathartic power of that depends on understanding revenge killing as The Problem of MDZS, and not engaging with that means throwing away all that narrative power.

henshengs

and to be clear I think the text is *very* straightforward in laying out that revenge killing is pretty much always a shitty idea that will only perpetuate the cycle of violence. But understanding that a character made the wrong choice =/= condemning them as Unworthy of sympathy or something. I wonder if maybe there is a discomfort around the idea that people can do deeply evil things for reasons that are not pure sadism, greed, or hunger for domination. And indeed that people who care a lot about morality can still commit immoral acts.

so much fiction is made by fundamentally knowledgeless people. Fantasy whose authress knows nothing of history, biology, or anthropology, only other fantasy. Cyberpunk writress with no understanding of political theory, sociology, or technology.

We increasingly live in a world without primary sources, or even secondary sources as the average creative is increasingly uncultured, only tertiary; ideas laundered until any context is sanded away. The median artist a dog that's never eaten food, only other dogs' vomit, some only their own vomit as franchises stumble through decades of self-referential undeath.

So much vitriol against AI art is that it is the previous norm at its most efficient: a mechanical dog that can imagine other dogs' vomit and conjure her own without first heaving.

Not even in a Notes farming way, it’s just a pride flag

Hey here's the food that I've figured out his the right combo of cheap, easy to make, tolerably tasty, and relatively nutritionally sound for when my brain is bad:

2c rice (2c is dry, prepare as you usually do. Whatever kind of rice you have is good, brown rice works well)

2 cans of pinto or black beans, drained (or one can of each. Whatever.)

12oz frozen broccoli

1c chunky salsa

Optional: .5c sour cream, .5c shredded cheese.

Also optional: salt, garlic powder, and cumin to taste (to season the rice)

Cook the rice in one pot (with the seasoning if you want to). Put the frozen broccoli, drained beans, and salsa in another pot and bring to a boil. When the rice is done and the bean broccoli salsa stuff is hot, mix the rice into the beans (if adding cheese or sour cream, stir into the beans before adding the rice).

Now you have a food. It's got protein and carbs and fiber and a vegetable (and fat if you add the cheese and sour cream).

The amount described above is a lot. You can portion half of it into single servings to freeze and still have like four meals.

It's not the kind of thing I'd serve to anyone else, but it's a better option than eating instant oatmeal for dinner for another week.

I just learned that Josie is editing videos for Nikhil Claymore now. Does that mean you and her brokered up or is he your 3rd. I thought he was dating someone else is she part of the polycule too

Anon, I’m gonna answer this is good faith and I’m not gonna make fun of you.

I need you to know that people can work together without dating. Josie is a video editor and Nikhil is her client. Josie and I are still dating, and neither of us are dating Nikhil or his partner.

Now, @saintjosie is going to make fun of you.

saintjosie

anon what the fuck is wrong with you?

first off, it’s none of your fucking business who any of us are dating. second, what a fucking terminally online expectation that just because content creators know each other online means that they’re dating.

we live full and busy lives outside of the things we post online, 99% of which you will never know about. don’t assume that we don’t touch grass just because you don’t.

this year for pride can we please be normal to trans women on the internet? thank you

“Slopsquatting” in a nutshell:

1. LLM-generated code tries to run code from online software packages. Which is normal, that’s how you get math packages and stuff but

2. The packages don’t exist. Which would normally cause an error but

3. Nefarious people have made malware under the package names that LLMs make up most often. So

4. Now the LLM code points to malware.

I'm sitting around waiting for the rain to pass so I can go home from my job as a programmer who uses open source software.

And since I'm waiting I decided to contribute an over-simplified analogy to explain this.

Analogy: You're in charge of running a kitchen. You and your staff create recipes and sell the meals you make. Inevitably though your recipes will call for things like "a stove" and "a blender" which you and your staff would not want to create from scratch.

Luckily "a stove" and "a blender" are things you can acquire and not try to make from scratch. You and your staff, as humans, are capable of recognizing real appliances, and getting them from real sources.

(There is actually an existing threat where "a stov" is a malicious thing, created by someone who knows "a stove" is in hot demand and is trying to take advantage of someone who might typo when ordering "a stove". There are some safe-guards in this space, but not 100% guarded.)

But now there's Cooking AI that can run your kitchen for you 🙂. It can write your recipes, order the necessities, and assemble the dish for you 🙃. Your boss fires you and your staff and just uses the Cooking AI.

The AI, in its infinite wisdom, starts writing recipes that call to be cooked on "a hotcob". It writes recipes that call for the ingredients to be assembled in "a produceslicer". These are not real things. And usually when the AI tries this, the process will error out because it fails at the process of acquiring the hotcob or the produceslicer.

But the kinds of people already profiting off supplying "a stov" take notice. AI likes to request these appliances frequently. The retailer offering "a stov" starts offering "a hotcob" and "a produceslicer". Now these AI-automated chefs succeed because their recipe order comes together!

"A hotcob" adds liquid mercury to all the dishes. "A produceslicer" hacks your wifi and steals all of the business's information. This is allowed because the AI chef welcomed these things in, signed for them, and hooked them up.

Really good. All of this. Great job, AI.
