Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 9hYet another ongoing vertigo episode. Unsure why NASA turned my bed into a gyro training simulator last night. No vomiting with this one so far so that's nice 110
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 07/10/2026The whippings didn't stop though. I was forced to write righthanded. It's why I'm ambidextrous with cross dominant dyslexia. Also likely cause of my weird aphasia 000
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 07/10/2026If someone had brushed glitter into her hair the last buffalo would still have died but she would have at least been happy first 020
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 06/10/2026There is a startling amount of latent knowledge that we already "know" bound up in the vast amount of published work if we only had a way to gather everything together and run large statistical inference across it... oh wait we do 000
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 06/10/2026My brain though does weird things when reading, building castles in my mind inhabited by people who never were whose joys and sorrows affect me deeply. For me, I practice compassion with the fictional both in video games and AI for myself and in hope that I will when it matters for real people 000
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 06/10/2026What kind of person looks at a werewolf movie and thinks, "that could have more basketball"? 010
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Keiko sent me down to the candle shop for a special anti-bat ghost candle. She asked me to remind you to stay over at Julian's. Apparently men are allergic to whatever is in the candle but she'll be just fine 140

Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I didn't know you had the power to command rats. Was that one of the powers you got when starfleet promoted you to chief petty officer? 140
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I had forgotten how great the energy crisis and stagflation of the 70s was. Thanks MAGA! 010

Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I just realized the phaser rifle predates the hand phaser. Spock is carrying one of the lasers from The Cage #TOSSatNight 060
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 04/10/2026So why'd he kill Kelso? I mean everyone else just got zotted with lightning #TOSSatNight 140
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I dunno why but I always thought Gary was the exec 110
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 04/10/2026To be fair Spock is always thinking about killing someone #TOSSatNight 150
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 04/10/2026But it was via surgically implanted tech and really just a neuro radio link to vincent 120
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Sacked her for not putting up with someone harassing her :( 010

Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Now I'm imagining the famous video remade as Borg ships of various shapes being directed to the square docking port and 7of9 in full Borg costume reacting 020
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Ladies and gentlemen this is your pilot speaking. I'm about to step into the thunderdome to fight for our gate assignment. Please remember your cheering contributes greatly to our on time performance and my potential survival... 000
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I'm not convinced they know that's where most people get their food from 000
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 03/10/2026and people wonder why AI art turns out so bad. There are many times more bad commercial art pieces in the training corpus than anything of value 010
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 03/10/2026And this is why Starfleet changed the policy of the female and non-binary cadet cruise across the galactic rim while the male cadets went to Risa 000
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I don't dispute the data but for the last year or two I have been wondering wtf. How can something like this have such strong beneficial effects across so many organ systems? Is this pointing to massive dysregulation in the average person 100

Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Who looks at a toilet and thinks, "this could be more sonic" 120
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 01/10/2026What does, "clogged" even mean in a sonic shower? The sound isn't draining somehow but instead is just getting louder, and louDER, and more PUMPKINY? 260
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I like the idea of omniscience without power. All knowing but trapped in bureaucracy or service Satan: I prefer to lie to them knowledgeDemon: But we'd get the most souls by telling them the horrible truth. You know I'm right Satan: Yes, but I don't care 0100
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I got my flu and covid vaccines yesterday and feel just awful today. I can handle the headache, stuffy head, blurry vision and fatigue. But there should be a law against making me feel really hungry and really nauseous at the same time. 010
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I dreamt I had to write an app for a porn company so people could trade naked photos of themselves standing on their heads. it had to make sure the photo was both naked and that they were standing on their head.

Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I like the idea that the demon becomes the main power opposed to enshitification 1260
Earthling #6 @dustsquid.bsky.social · 01/10/2026The demon basically asks, "Why summon me when there are more convenient less soul destroying sources of knowledge available?"
