Desperately seeking a home, life-partner, & realistic optimism. The anti-intellectualism, anti-science, ignorance, antipathy, bigotry, corpo/authoritarian-bootlicking in my country terrifies me. Facts. Art. Music. Empathy. Love is a behavior not a feeling.

It’s not about who‘s mid. It’s about a poisoned culture that further degrades itself by demanding profit without investment, caring nothing about quality or expertise in any context as a result. Artists were always undervalued but now they’re a bigger target because shallow aesthetics are now easy.

If this is just about getting paid to do things, that’s been a pain in the ass w/this toxic culture of perverse valuation for decades. I myself was hired over an expert in a design job decades ago. I can no longer get paid to do anything I developed skills around. LLMs: bigger step in same direction

Most of us are mid; it’s true. There’s more to being a creative than subjective ratings averaging our output. Being a person in a society of peers, connections to others can change our interests & processes, and we can influence others. Regarding only material output is capitalism, not society.

Perception of originality can be subjective. Some art serves as my introduction to a theme or style. When I discover the artist’s inspirations/influences, it expands my awareness/appreciation and needn’t quash appreciation of my 1st exposure. Generative stuff has no such social process.

”Energy pocket“, “aura”… What are these bizarre terms you are using and what do they have to do with repeat victimization?

It’s how they’re nurtured in our toxic culture. There’s a lot of self-selection bias involved in being a person who seeks power in the Republican Party. Behavioral/psychological studies suggest that those who align with aggression & authoritarianism tend to end up as so-called “conservatives”.

Every woman I’ve known has had one or another of those experiences; some have multiple (especially the ones with some type of PTSD or other trauma adaptation). I am a man who dislikes the company of fellow men for this and many other reasons.

Reducing competent leadership that might have independent thought, while directing more power to the top of the hierarchy.

The people of this regime are pathologically insecure; they hate competence & expertise. They wont ever be comfortable. Their compulsion is to expunge & defame competence (especially that which they fear they don’t 100% puppet) so that they can more easily hide their own incompetence.

It works. Our toxic culture typically mistakes arrogance and aggression for confidence and competence. If our legislators didn’t walk on eggshells for false civility, this shit would get rightfully punished as it occurs and that would impart a different kind of culture.

Ah but who cares about legal accusations when we have the paper mask of ”civility” before which to bow and scrape.

Since she’s actually kind of an aggressive person, her deference and politeness here, and then passive-aggressive needling, is rather odd. I guess her aggression is only for people below her in hierarchies? Politeness is often a mask worn by people who think image matters more than reality.

This is a deep issue with our toxic culture. BELIEF is elevated up alongside facts, and often pushed even further up the ladder above facts. We have a bipartisan culture of forcing people to walk on eggshells for “sincerely held beliefs” and religion. This behavior is one of the many consequences.

That website is intolerable. Automatically playing video, ads all over the page, popups, and an anti-ad blocker popup. All of that was already visible despite having an ad blocker, so I’m not sure WTF they’re whining about. Advertising is a cancer on society.

jace cavacini @dysamoria.com · 29/09/2026
The media continues to refuse to explain that LLMs are inherently untrustworthy, mostly because they are just posting “CEO said a thing” articles that they get advertising impressions from, while helping their corporate daddy‘s buddies.

Our toxic culture mistakes wealth for success, financial success for intelligence & merit, aggression & arrogance for confidence & competence, refuses to acknowledge it creates monsters (especially out of men), and pressures us to walk on eggshells for “sincerely held beliefs”. PsyEd could help.

I wish I’d pushed back on fellow men SO MUCH MORE all my life, but it took me a long time to escape the mindset of having been bullied and wanting to avoid more. The best I was able to do was refuse to engage in shitty talk/behavior, and to distance myself from those men. I prefer women, socially.

I’m not talking about magic. I’m talking about inevitable human failure, in an industry with endless failures and refusals to fix bugs, and a tool that doesn’t get bored and won’t necessarily stick to the instructions given to it because it’s not intelligent and has randomness built in on purpose.

It’s not even necessarily “malfunctioning”, when considering that LLMs just do shit, and always will occasionally just do shit they weren’t told to do… …because they’re not intelligence and it’s foolish to trust untrustworthy products built upon pathological technology.

Because everything is broken. Our civilization has no leadership who cares about how broken everything is. Legislators and corporate executives have human assistants (servants) to interface with all the fucking bullshit for them, so they don’t experience it and therefore don’t care.

We have seen that an LLM is apt to random walk its way out of whatever box it’s put in so long as human error continues to miss the holes that administrators leave there. Software, especially if enabled to act as “agents”, is full of holes. Software is shit. The computer industry is appalling.

Yes, exactly. I am using “pathological” not in the context of it being sentient, but because it’s a technology that the pursuit of is pathological, like nuclear fusion generators.
