An important tweet

This is such a "common sense" way of putting it. Everybody memorize this for spitting it back out whenever needed.

Never thought I'd have the opportunity to say this again: Reducing women and girls to their vaginas and then forcing them to show those vaginas to strangers is not a feminist ideal.

not to be that pathetic anarchist with a heart and soul full of unrelenting hope in the face of an uncaring world but if you feel like the world is a horrid place and you are powerless to change it talk to the people down the street

talk to people, talk to your neighbors, go to the library call a friend, on discord or signal or your phone, whatever say "hi" to someone walking down the road give an earnest compliment to someone at the bus stop smile at someone on the bus

yes, the world is a dark place yes, the systems of injustice in place in it are not ones that you personally can change

but first and foremost you're a social animal facing unprecedented times of social disconnection

go to a community event help out at some kind of group that helps out in your city or your neighborhood work at a soup kitchen or a support organization or advocacy group join some other effort to ease the suffering of this world

all of us are powerless to change the world at large but all of us can change the world around us together

This has been my main argument against "AI" from the very beginning.

OpenAI scraped the entire web. All of which had been a labor of love from humans. Wikipedia is the backbone of a lot of LLMs, and that was volunteer human labor. They stole it and now they're selling it back to us.

And worse, they're trying to destroy the free sources that they stole from. It's destruction of human knowledge on an unprecedented scale. The burning of the library of Alexandria has nothing on this.

Coolest thing about lord of the rings? The king of horses shows up. It appears he is no different from all other horses

[cryptotheism]

King of the eagles shows up later. He can talk. Horse king couldn't talk.

[betterbemeta]

He didn't want to talk to you.

[swaglexander-the-great]

[findingfeather]

Uh.

Point of order.

King of Horses ran 450 fucking miles at almost entirely a gallop, without more than a few minutes rest, in 4 nights and basically was like "wait why are we stopping?" when Gandalf took him into the city and he ended up in a stable.

This was not his top speed, nor did it push any limits on his endurance.

King of horses is very different from other horses, actually.

[elodieunderglass]

He just doesn’t do much about his administrative duties

[darkwizardtheorist]

But he didn't need to - his rule was stable, after all.

Happy Pride Month to those two women dancing together in the foreground of the boat scene in Godzilla (1954).

I’m sorry your romantic foibles were overshadowed by a big ass atomic lizard thing.

“Why don’t you use ai” idk man beyond the obvious environmental and “this machine causes psychosis and encourages people to kill themselves” thing I think asking the equivalent of a solid D student who is also a pathological liar if they can answer my question/do the work for me seems pretty fucking stupid

I think you can absolutely still have hope while acknowledging we are in multiple forms of collapse. You can be hopeful you’ll get a job. You can be hopeful solutions will arise. You can be hopeful you’ll make friends. You can be hopeful that there are people who care for the world amidst the world being beat and bruised.

You’re allowed to care even though lots of things are going bad. Some things can’t be fixed or saved. But it’s okay to hold onto hope for something good to happen tomorrow. Good things are always going to pop up like flowers in war zones.

“The world is not on fire, there are just lots of fires.” Don’t lose hope that some fires can be put out. So much is still easy. Build a safe zone within the flames, and persist putting them out. Accepting we are in a bad place does not equal rolling over to let it get worse. No matter how bad things will get, you can still put out flames in different spaces.

You can give yourself the freedom of acknowledging life right now is in a state of unrest and we don’t know when the chapter will close, while also being happy we are here with other people and things that make it worth it. Because it is worth it. All hard things are worth it.

Allow yourself gentle mercies that will keep you alive.
