the crazy thing about making time for any creative pursuit is that you literally have to do what you have a gut-deep yearning to do or else you'll see other people doing it, and it WILL make you insane.

I can’t believe we’re back to medieval level conflicts like “local merchant princes attempt to bribe theologians and the Pope’s advisors so the Pope will issue a favorable proclaimation”

If a chair rolls on your feet, it will crush your bones and you, ironically, will be unable to walk.
"Somebody get an ambulance!" Meme, but "wheelchair" has replaced "ambulance"

dymphna @dymphna.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
However, it is a bad idea to play chicken with a wheelchair. A chair is not as agile as a person. It can't turn sideways and squeeze through. It can't turn or stop at the last minute. It's fast. It's heavy, and if it rolls on your foot it can't step off like a person who stepped on you could.

There are many factors involved in this: age (young people are always boneheaded about these things), ethnicity, class, and so on. There are many factors involved in whether you are accustomed to yielding to others.

dymphna @dymphna.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
People react in different ways to another pedestrian in a wheelchair. Some people are much more likely to refuse to yield, lean over the chair, hit me (sometimes in the face) with their swinging arms or backpack, cut in front of me, etc. One gender does this more often than others.

his name is lethargic. he's an IRC chatbot I wrote in 2011 and has been through IRC, skype, and is now on discord (in private servers with friends.) the algorithm has been unchanged since the beginning.
Lethargic’s algorithm

Lethargic’s primary response generator uses a bespoke algorithm that uses neither templates nor markov chains.
Take the user’s input:
	Hello lethargic, how are you doing today?
Then pick a random message from a dataset of old IRC logs
	brb throwing my computer against the wall
Then we interlace these two sentences, one word at a time, excluding ending punctuation:
	Hello brb lethargic, throwing how my are computer you against doing the today wallLethargic's algorithm continued
Hello brb lethargic, throwing how my are computer you against doing the today wall
We replace “lethargic” with “me” and other pronouns so that they are inverted (like ELIZA)
	Hello brb me, throwing how your are computer me against doing the today wall
Finally we pass this amalgamation into google translate a bunch of times through multiple languages to get our response:
	Hey, wait a minute, how's your computer doing today after I hit my head against a wall?

if i may just wildly conjecture i think there's a certain kind of person who wants a dog because the dog is their subordinate. they want to be the alpha dog in the pack or whatever. nobody talks about being an alpha cat lol.

One of the reasons why we 'cant get off our phones' has to do with how we think about urgency and emergency and our inability to figure out what's actually important to know now, know later, or not know at all – everything and anything is now presented as necessary

Something Carney and Trudeau have in common, though, is that they both excel at consolidating international liberal support and deploying that support against people at home. In other words, to oppose Carney, you also have to contend with his global popularity, as was the case with Trudeau.
