I've gotten a lot of new followers. Hi!
Some basics:
I'm 40+ and Black, which means I operate on a bare minimum of fucks.
I love music, anime, reading books (including comic books), & video games (The Sims and FFXIV in particular).
I love museums.
Trying to get back into my gym rat routine.

Yes! The future is not already settled. In fact, actual serious people (not tech bros or acolytes) are majorly calling into question every aspect of "AI" on a deep level. I compiled 18 pages worth of links to help resist "AI is inevitable" propaganda: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

How many racist tropes can you count in this post? I stopped counting at 7.
Jasmine Crockett is not doing what's best for Texas and progressives from around the country need to talk to Texans before they act.

And it's going to follow the path that US politics always follows: one administration will build, one will block and destroy, one will build, one will block and destroy.
But none of it's gonna work if people continue to sit home.

I hope people understand that we're far past just setting shit 47 has knocked over back upright. This will be rebuilding: NEW legislation, new institutional knowledge, new case law even. This will take decades. Not 4 years, not 8.
Once he IS GONE, it will take a while but we will have a semblance of normalcy again. Kind of like what happened after he left the 1st time. But this time hopefully things will be put in place so we do not Ever go through this nightmare again.

Okay but where is this recipe that has the pale delegation getting a case of the vapors?
Someone shares a delicious take on green bean casserole...
White people in the comments:
"Too much seasoning. All you need is salt and pepper."
"It should be drier than that."
"Why are you adding mushrooms & bacon?"
"Condensed soup is better than homemade roux and sauce."
🗣 STOP EMBARRASSING US

The only national holidays Black people actually celebrate are MLK Day & Juneteenth.
We don’t “celebrate” those other days…we simply enjoy the paid day off with some good company & some good food.
Stop conflating the two.
