Pretty sure I have convinced myself this is my path.

Seriously, maybe I will just go buy a quaint little chateau in a smallish French village somewhere in the Loire Valley, and open a little place for people to come hangout and stay when they want to. I cannot tell you how appealing that sounds.

A lot of our culture practices lying by omission. If you can get people to NOT ask the questions, then you don't have to answer them or worry about the status quo changing... which is absolutely the current problem with the leadership of the Democratic Party at present.

I'd guess because they're all eugenicists.

It's very windy out, as well as dry, and I think someone a few blocks away is shooting off a bunch of fireworks and I just have to say, not all the children are the future. Some are just fire hazards with limbs.

If the Palisades Fire suspect goes to trial, he’ll be one of the first people in the U.S. to have his ChatGPT history used against him in a criminal prosecution. I spoke to tech and legal experts about the future of digital evidence:

What You Tell an AI Chatbot Could One Day Be Evidence in a Criminal Trial

User exchanges with ChatGPT and other AI tools are a valuable new form of evidence for law enforcement in criminal investigations and prosecutions.

And they would be less likely to fall for bullshit just because they heard it repeated a certain number of times. 🤬🤦‍♀️

Also, thank you very much.

Absolutely. It's a tragedy we do not teach critical thinking in school anymore, or I think more people would understand how important precision of language is to communication. Perception is truth for 98% if the populace, so don't make it EASY for them to form a negative perception of your effort.

(I find that kind of insistence frustrating in the extreme. It makes accomplishing progress needlessly difficult and shuts out ppl who might otherwise agree with that you are trying to do. It's why I feel they don't actually see themselves as part of a movement, they just want to feel superior.)

scribbleghoul 🧟‍♀️ @scribblegurl.bsky.social · 3h

Ie., the young user right now lecturing me on why antifa is called antifa, despite having already admitted that most ppl don't know what it means. It's more important to them WHY the movement is called antifa than acknowledging misrepresentation by the right & media is a problem for the movement.

Oh my. Sweet summer child.

scribbleghoul 🧟‍♀️ @scribblegurl.bsky.social · 3h

There's nothing wrong with identifying by your movement, but it's really weird to be so married to how you've LABELED it that you rabidly gatekeep that label, even when it's clear that there is a communication issue preventing others from joining and helping you achieve your stated goals.

It's like they're the same people who saw the og Twitter blue checks as a sign of status, rather than just what they were, a way to verify account labeled Public Figure A was really Public Figure A. 3/

I think for someone like that, they see themselves as a member of an elite group instead of part of a movement. They don't actually want more people to join and move their goals forward, because that will deprive them of their prestige and superiority. 2/

I very much love when you observe there is a messaging issue with a term like "antifa" or "defund the police," and the people who identify by that term are so enamored of it and married to their identity with it, that they are incapable of acknowledging the problems it creates re: communication. 1/

But you go ahead and lecture me, if it makes you feel important, sweetheart.

scribbleghoul 🧟‍♀️ @scribblegurl.bsky.social · 4h

"Cool" is not even a factor in my dislike. Communication is the point, and as we have established, a great many people have no idea what antifa means and capitalize on the sound of it over the meaning.

Some weirdo on Twitter has been absolutely melting down for like 36 straight hours because I posted:

When this is over, do not forget what ICE did, and what ICE is. And do not make room for them in society. Make sure they know that they are, and will continue to be, reviled and beneath contempt.
