It's OK not to have children if you do not want to raise children. More people should take this to heart.

You guys fantasize, a lot, about not having to pay for labor or be responsible for treating the labor source with dignity. So much of GenAI discourse is about a desire for ethical enslavement. And that does not exist.

It's not so much that we need to be afraid of AI itself, it's that we are afraid of what most *men* want to do with it -- to us.

There's this strange homoerotic fixation that Christian nationalists have toward their conception of Christ. I didnt know about it till I read the excellent "Jesus and John Wayne" by @kkdumez.bsky.social a few years back. And it tracks every single time

Gandalf at Helm's Deep knows his ass just got saved by the Ents. He's squinting in disbelief and clutching his staff like he thinks someone will steal it on the subway. He's speaking, with a speech bubble, so that he's saying the words quoted below.

I hate that AI has removed curiosity and rabbit holes for people. No don't ask that damn bot, instead spend four hours reading everything you can on a weird topic and getting lost in tangents like nature intends!

Omigod, this is the most heartwarming story possible! Backpack (bear 89) is the son of the 2019 winner of Fat Bear Week, Holly (bear 435). In 2007, he injured his foot & a practice of riding on momma's Holly's back had a new meaning: he was mobility-restricted while it healed. So Holly moved him.
From DISCVR blog's Facebook page, a momma bear & a yearling cub on her back in the shallow water.  I think the background has been swapped out, and I can't rule out some AI use there?  God, Facebook has become the social media for AI slop : (

The title of the article, which I link below, is "How Bear 89 earned the name Backpack"

I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

I long for a back-to-basics web: Markdown for text, JPEG images, no video, no Javascript or other client-side scripting, writable by a human being with a text editor. Make it as advertising/corporate hostile as possible. And above all keep it *small*. In other words, web like it's 1996 again.

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, working at a desk. A brain next to her says, "We need to take breaks!"
The second panel zooms in on Sarah's face. She is annoyed. She says, "What if I don't listen to you?"
The third panel shows the brain smiling.
The fourth panel shows the brain reaching towards a lever. The brain says, "I'LL MAKE YOU."

Does my Speak-n-Spell feel pain when I type O-U-C-H? The jury is out. Philosophers and neuroscientists say that's fucking stupid, but I called a guy from the Center for Pretending that Household Electronics Are Sentient and he said there's no way to know for sure.

‘We’re going to lose some fine intellectual dexterity.’ This is a CEO openly confessing to a level of acquired mental indolence that, were he not coddled 24/7 by an army of paid underlings, would make him incapable of living independently and feeding himself. He’s fine with it. Your kids won’t be.

Literally people in graduate school with the founders of Deepmind used to roll their eyes when they talked about "AI" extinction risks. They are in the TESCREAL bundle & attended all the singularity summits and such. You can read about it in one of my papers. dair-institute.org/projects/tes...

The TESCREAL Bundle
The array of utopian ideologies that power Silicon Valley's elite is ultimately bleakly eugenicist.
