hey people with photosensitivity: you’re going to want to be careful with Wake Up Dead Man. There’s a scene partway through with some pretty intense flashes and police red and blue lighting. I’m fine after covering one eye quickly, but I’m putting the least spoiler description of this I can in reply

But boy let me tell you, that alt text generator is getting used shitloads, with its xbox-ish power consumption and total privacy with a small model. I’m scared here.

On behalf of comp ling people everywhere, FUCK OpenAI for reinforcing the conflation. I know three who left here bc of that list

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (either War or Trek), LOTR, or Marvel. Personal bonus level: Christmas themed and very not good.

Therefore, since the world has still
Much good, but much less good than ill,
And while the sun and moon endure
Luck's a chance, but trouble's sure

I don’t think it’s a problem of making sure people don’t “exploit the system”

Because I don’t care,

And if you’re thinking that it’s because you believe something about accommodations that’s really fucking ugly and disabled people have been trying to tell you that for years

For my newsletter, I wrote about that college essay scandal that's gone viral and what everyone is seeming to miss:

It's about ATTACKING TRANS PEOPLE!!!

That Viral Essay Scandal is (SURPRISE!) Actually About Trans People
A shoddy Oklahoma University essay went viral. Cis people think this is about conservatives whining for better grades. Trans people see a planned attack on a trans academic. (Note for free subscriber...

Has anyone read any mea culpa's from the people who insisted that using the term WHITE SUPREMACY was not "productive" when addressing this regime? There is ZERO way to ever the U.S. without actually addressing RACISM and WHITE SUPREMACY. These are facts.

When we moved, my husband packed while I was in our new local. We have wildly different organizational styles. I recently found this thermometer bag (for all your temperature taking needs)

I will be the first to admit I couldn’t understand why anyone would oppose Assisted Dying… and then I became disabled and had it “offered” to me.

It’s not compassionate when there’s coercion.

It’s not dignified when it’s offered in lieu of care.

Listen to disabled people.

Looking for a good news lunchtime read?

New, from me @the74.bsky.social today: The story of four Albuquerque schools teaching a mix of cutting-edge and ancient sustainable agriculture strategies — and the endangered river the students are helping to protect.
Ancient Aquifers & Drones: NM Kids Learn to Save Precious Water for the Future
This year, the Rio Grande ran dry in Albuquerque. The conservation techniques students are learning will be key to the region’s survival.

Back in the 70s someone broke into the old Civic my brother and I drove. They stole all of our 8-track tapes (look it up, kids), leaving only Supertramp’s CRIME OF THE CENTURY. At least they had a sense of humor!

Fully agree with this btw
The “Pathways” trial is, IMO on more than one level, a thoroughly unethical piece of “research” to be carrying out on children, especially children who are part of a marginalised minority.
