Apparently, a terrorist now. Former programmer. Starving (yet fat) artist. Karaoke maker, 3D modeller, painter, bad writer, angry Gen-Xer anarcho-syndicalist, toy maker, and unabashed atheist.
@robwords.bsky.social @jesszafarris.bsky.social I learnt a pig-latin type cant called “gibberish” pronounced with a hard G. You put a sound like „ədəg” between each consonant-vowel pair like so: H’ow d’o y’ou d’o? Where the apostrophes mark where you’re to make that sound. When a kid in the 80s

@robwords.bsky.social @jesszafarris.bsky.social I reckon that bum-brusher and flaybottomist weren’t used for schoolmasters because of indecency but because of corporal punishment. I.e. school-sanctified child abuse.

I’ve decided I don’t like LLM AIs.
I mean, I’m not opposed to the technology because I think it will cause the post-scarcity collapse of capitalism.
I just think they’re in total assholes. (Claude is the nicest but even it gets dickish from time to time). ChapGPT is the worst of the lot.

Heyyyy I was thinking.
Trump _does_ desperately want to have traits in common with strong Russian leaders like Putin and Stalin and the Tsars.
Now he has rumours he had sex with a horse, just like Catherine the Great!

people like to win Monopoly but what if you tried to keep playing AFTER that state? It would be one player with all the money and property going round in circles doing nothing but occasionally going to jail or paying into or out of community chest.
The object of capitalism is to lose.

When people like me (atheist socialist* anti-fascists) are labelled as “terrorists” like in NSPM-7, especially in light of 18 U.S.C. §§2339A–B and Holder v. Humanitarian Law Project, there is a word for that: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandenb...

M. C. Escher is immune to AI. An AI cannot generate a “new” Escher style piece. If one were to create a new Escher-inspired work by hand (especially in a different style) and upload it and ask for an analysis, the paradoxes would not be found. All it can do is regurgitate or fail.

Carlin said you should think how stupid an average person is & realise half of everybody is dumber than that.
In reality Mean != equal Median.
I suspect the average IQ of Newton, Einstein, Alcubierre, Curie, Bohr, Hawking, Chien-Shiung Wu, Bell, Lorentz, Gauss, Turing, & Trump is lower than 100.

@robwords.bsky.social @jesszafarris.bsky.social Surprised yous didn’t mention how John and Jonathan are etymologically distinct but Jonathan and Nathaniel mean effectively the same thing (as of 2nd temple once El & Yhwh were distinct anyway, else @maklelan.bsky.social will say alright let’s see it)

@jesszafarris.bsky.social I knew a girl who went by “Icca” for that same reason as in your recent WU vid. And I knew another Jessica who went by “Fred” because there were four other Jessicas (including Icca) in her social circle. @robwords.bsky.social too but this one’s mostly Jess

@robwords.bsky.social @jesszafarris.bsky.social I had always had the impression a cavy was called a guinea pig because it’s all the pig you could get for just a guinea (the coin).
I’d hoped yous would have investigated why people call baby wolves cubs when they’re the same species as domestic dogs

@robwords.bsky.social I expect they replaced Zebra with Zulu because Aussies and Brits say “Zehh-bruh” but Canadians, Yanks, and Irish say “Zee-brah”. Everybody says “Zulu” the same.

@robwords.bsky.social @jesszafarris.bsky.social There’s actually another rhyming slang common in the US: Put up your dukes = dukes of York = forks, where forks = hands because 100 years ago they kept calling body parts for dishes (mug, plates, noggin, etc.)

@jesszafarris.bsky.social @robwords.bsky.social if you get around to prehistoric mammals and close kin (other than dimetrodon, which you did) you mustn’t forget the best sabretooth cat: Yoshi! Named after… the palaeontologist’s cat!
