Hello, new people!

Hi, I’m MJ. I’m one of those artist types. I make things with my hands, draw silly pictures, write sexy stories, write spooky stories, and I also take self portraits a lot.

Posts to expect: vinyls, muppets, cute animals, pretty portraits, more muppets, and bad jokes.

“There are just a lot of rumors flying around. But I figured if you heard it from me, you’d know that I was okay,” Dolly Parton said in a new two-minute video posted on Instagram. “I’m not ready to die yet. I don’t think God is through with me. And I ain’t done working.” https://to.pbs.org/4hc1DXB

I think more people should be aware of how much cool stuff Link does in real life. He’s not just a poster.

“As a neurodiversity advocate and as an autistic person, I’m really grateful for so much of the work that’s been done that allows me to be myself and to be successful being myself.” Link, who has been *banned*!?!? from this platform?

It is morally wrong to want a computer to be sentient. If you owned a sentient thing, you would be a slaver. If you want sentient computers to exist, you just want to create a new kind of slavery. The ethics are as simple as that. Sorry if this offends

ACAB in 1943

A quote from Raymond Chandler’s The Lady in the Lake that reads:

"Police business," he said almost gently, "is a hell of a problem.
It's a good deal like politics. It asks for the highest type of men, and there's nothing in it to attract the highest type of men. So we have to work with what we get—and we get things like this."
