Anyone else’s phone suddenly takes forever to load apps and the battery draining really quickly? It’s been happening since about a week ago and I have a pretty new phone too.

What if the multiverse is really just our collective minds connected by physical reality? So, each mind is its own universe and physical reality is the plane in which we connect those realities.

Yall thinking RizzBot is funny but it’s collecting data on human behavior responses. They sell that data to companies who will train/socialize AI robots that have an allegiance to corporate elites. #AI #robots #corporatism #tech #rizzbot #sociology

I believe as Uranus Gemini progresses through its degrees, conflict evolves from siblings to neighbors, from cousins to countrymen, and lastly fellow humans and neighboring countries. By the end of this Uranus Gemini transit, we will likely see the climax of a Third World War. #uranus #gemini #ww3

You are right 💚 Filler episodes do originate from anime but has evolved and manifested in various other mediums. They were originally used by writers to avoid overtaking a manga’s narrative but we can find examples in Breaking Bad, GoT, Doctor Who, and Supernatural. tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwik...

Let’s talk about how slang used to take a generation to evolve and now it takes weeks. Studies have show LLMs trained on human languages struggle to keep up with how quickly we develop new slang. Slang develops primarily among the youth and marginalized groups outside of the mainstream. #ai #slang

Fuck, man. I just read that people are now selling AI prompts to people who are too stupid/lazy to think of their own prompts. Critical thinking will be dead in a generation.

I’m rewatching Dexter and it’s so clear how much this show influenced Mr. Robot—particularly the monologuing antisocial anti-hero. But, it’s most evident in the last scene of Dexter’s season 1 finale.

‘Homogeny’ and ‘monoculture’ are not interchangeable terms. But, both operate on the principle of uniformity at the expense of diversification. We know what happens when people inbreed for generations and we know what happens when we rely on a single crop that is more susceptible to disease.

Ignoring Trump's interference, Brazil gives a lesson in holding former leaders accountable, as they put Bolsonaro under house arrest. He is accused of staging a coup to stay in power. Sound familiar, America? #Brazil #Accountability #Politica @blogdosakamoto.bsky.social www.cbc.ca/news/world/b...

Astrocartography related, I think I would greatly benefit moving away from the energy that my natal chart experiences in Houston. It can best be summed up as an energetic pressure cooker. The longer I’ve lived here, the more tense my environment has felt, and it’s suffocating. #astrocartography

Trump is going deeper into sunk cost fallacy with this Epstein coverup to the point that I believe it will be the main catalyst behind his dictatorship. Trump’s goal was to leave a legacy he’d be admired for. Do you think he’ll be satisfied going out like this? He’s gonna force the plot.

If World War 3 does pop off, I don’t see America winning. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if this is the moment in history where America gets invaded and finally gets punched in the fucking mouth.

In Alanis Morisette’s song ‘Ironic’ the first line is, “an old man turned ninety-eight”, which is a very straightforward, unironic statement to begin the song with, thus making it perfectly ironic within the context of the entire song. Genius.

Sydney Sweeney being a closeted MAGA Republican and appearing in American Eagle eugenist ads is up there with Elizabeth Moss being a Scientologist. They’re both white women who acted in The Handmaid’s Tale and yet still involve themselves with cults 🤷🏽‍♂️

I think people are misinterpreting this wonky headline. The bombshell story CBS is reporting is that the Epstein jail tape the public got IS missing time and the FULL video exists. The FBI and DOJ have it. So when Bondi said the missing minute is normal, she lied. www.cbsnews.com/news/jeffrey...
cbsnews.com
There was no "missing minute" in the original Epstein jail video, government source says
FBI officials promised raw, unaltered video to quell speculation about Epstein's suicide.

Can we create a new genre called “COVID Lore” that takes place between 2020-2023? For example, Ari Aster’s Eddington, Louise Erdrich’s The Sentence, and HBO’s The Franchise would be “COVID Lore”. I use “Lore” because of the pivotal shift into a post-truth world this era gave us.

So, during this Uranus Gemini, we’re developing all of this AI and surveillance tech, right? 7 years from now, when we enter Uranus Cancer (house, home, country, motherland) smart homes and smart cities will become the norm. It will happen that fast. Exponential curve and all that.

“No politics at the dinner table” is the most bullshit neoliberal concept I’ve ever heard. It pacifies and disrupts revolutionary discourse that has historically been had at dinner tables which lead to organizing/mobilizing friends, family, and community. PLEASE talk politics at the dinner table.

Less than a week before my natal Sun in 0° Cancer (identity, ego, sense of self; home, mother, emotional connections) progresses into 0° Leo (leadership, expressive, recognition). Such a radical change moving from water to fire.
