Girls next to us at the coffee shop talking about rereading classics and one of them was like "I need to reread Dracula, it's so good" and the other was like "oh I haven't heard of it" and then the first person was like "oh it's Victorian horror, I think they made a movie?"

I had a lot of convos with people who said they were sympathetic, but Defund the Police was a "bad slogan". I told them it wasn't a slogan. It was an answer. It was an answer to the constant question "what can we do to actually lower crime and make our neighborhood's safer?"

Anyway. Here we are.

Should’ve defunded the police like we instructed smh

I would bet $20 that modern au He Xuan has a poster of Jaws in his bedroom

An isometric illustration of a bedroom with an unmade bed, a bookshelf with a shell from a deep sea creature, a hanging sword, a desk with an aquarium, and a poster of Jaws behind it. The window is open and it is night. The bedside lamp is on low. The picture is done in cool greens and blues, making it seem dark.

Installing someone like Bari Weiss as the head of a major news organization isn’t even about profit or longevity. In effect it’s about continuing to shrink the traditional news industry smaller and smaller and weaker and weaker and less and less journalism based until it ceases to exist

if she tries to hang out with them before she marries him they MYSTERIOUSLY FIGHT HER (she starts half the fights) but if she's married to bingge they HAVE to be her friends*

as a girl with a PhD in natural language processing and machine learning it's actually offensive to me when you say "we don't know how LLMs work so they might be conscious"

I didn't spend 10 years in mines of academia to be told ignorance is morally equal knowledge.

We know exactly how LLMs work.

This Tumblr user summarizes something I've been feeling/doing lately. Against everything going on, it somehow feels helpful.

User homoquartz writes: as long as you smile and nod, people are satisfied. it’s just to show that you are nice and there with good intentions. we’re small in a big world and have to rely on other people to be decent to us. so we do our little human dance to each other to say, “i’m not here to hurt you. here’s something we have in common, like the weather or sports or itchy sweaters, so we both know we’re on the same team. we both agree on a basic fact, like that it is rainy or that being itchy is uncomfortable, and this proves we can get along. i’m being light-hearted and non-threatening right now."
Small talk isn't to get to know a person. It's just a greeting to affirm you're buddies in the universe. I am motivated by wanting the other person to know I am friendly, so I have gotten pretty decent at small tall when I used to hate it.

ICE is buying a location tracking tool that harvests data from hundreds of millions of phones a day. Protect your location data by updating a few settings on your phone 🧵 (1/4): www.404media.co/ice-to-buy-...

ICE to Buy Tool that Tracks Locations of Hundreds of Millions of Phones Every Day

Documents show that ICE has gone back on its decision to not use location data remotely harvested from peoples' phones. The database is updated every day with billions of pieces of location data.

We are here because policing in the U.S. has been this way for generations. This is why ICE acts with impunity. They know they can act this way.

Microsoft shoved their AI Copilot into everything in Windows 11. Which lead to an increase in Windows 10 use. So they announced they'd stop support for Windows 10, but its usage was still strong. So they started to put Copilot into Windows 10.

Windows 7 use is surging 5x now.

AI is product poison.

veilguard negativity but this was sooo much of the worst part of taash's storyline for me lmfao

the haver of it🔞 @taylortitmouse.bsky.social · 8d

we dunk on the concept of historical and fantasy characters somehow having a perfect understanding of bdsm safety protocols but i think we also need to free ourselves of putting modern terms for gender and sexuality in the mouths of characters who would've never seen a pineapple.

Don’t wanna piggyback someone’s perfectly good post with book promo, but lrp:

Might I suggest The Woods All Black, an historical Appalachian gothic set in the late ‘20s that explores gender, sexuality, and trans/queer bodily autonomy? It’s also (1) horny (2) spooky and (3) a bash-back revenge story
