Cronic fatigue syndrome is not good for creativity. Used to be an more active musician.

When humans look at something we find beautiful it causes dopamine release in our brains & looking at plants shifts our brain activity away from fight or flight & into rest & digest mode.

Oh damn is that true. Did anyone say anything about that anytime recently. Or warn about this very specific problem multiple times, at length?

I can't stop laughing at this man I'm sorry. This is the kind of shit the biggest loser in the world would say to their girlfriend about buying her flowers on Valentine's Day once, and he's doing so in an argument that started because he called her a bitch

Assumed that this was from 2021 and that there was some sort of mistake but this was posted like a day or two ago? Total contempt for consumers that they'd even ship this crap
This is Meta’s brand new ad for Horizon Worlds. Not sure how I’m supposed to feel about it.

Tech has stopped being about helping YOU do things - it's now a means for management consultants to use software to penetrate/monetize every aspect of our lives, all while expressing growth to the markets. This is the growth-at-all-costs Rot Economy.

![Technology has, in many ways, stopped being about "using technology to help people do things," or at the very least "help the user do something that they want to do." Software has, as Marc Andreessen said it would in 2011, eaten the world, and has done so in the nakedly-cynical and usurious way that he wanted it to, prioritizing the invasion of our lives through prioritizing growth - and the collection of as much data as possible on the user — over any particular utility or purpose. Andreessen and his ilk saw (and see) software not as a thing that provides value, but as a means for the tech industry to penetrate and "disrupt" as many industries as possible, pushing legacy providers to "transform themselves into software companies" rather than using software to make their products better, describing Pixar — the studio that made movies like Toy Story and Inside Out that was acquired by Disney in 2006 — as a software company rather than a company that makes something using software.
I realize this sounds like semantics, but let me put it another way: software has, for the tech industry, become far more about extracting economic value than it has in providing it. When the tech industry becomes focused on penetrating markets (to quote Andreessen, "software companies....[taking] over large swathes of the economy") there's little consideration of whether said software is prioritizing the solution to a problem.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:qc6xzgctorfsm35w6i3vdebx/bafkreibl6gxgkyia3qs3bowropqrlhy2wgtd3edgxcves7mwns47ngprvq@jpeg)

On top of all of this truly horrifying and terrifying shit we also have to suffer the indignity of saying "DOGE" every time we find out about which 22-year-old that wears a bowtie is currently deleting people from social security based on how "based their vibe is"
