I feel like some folks from the US keep talking about how the country is "just like Idiocracy now!!" And for those people I would really urge you to reflect on how weirdly classist and eugenicist that film was.

It should be illegal to put the Microsoft Teams ping noise in a TV commercial. Now I know how my dog feels when the doorbell rings on TV

I haven't lived in the United States in over a decade but from the state of NFL commercials it seems like the economy is now based on sports betting and GLP-1s

The sick part is, the people who are pushing for AI to replace actual artists have invented a moral high ground for themselves. They think they're being "bullied" and "censored" for being part of the "future". You're not a champion of the oppressed. You're not being bullied. You're just an idiot.

#bookreview no.21: Hellions by Julia Elliot. I'm obsessed with these. No straight-up review possible as I'm still tangled up in the stories. Themes: childhood as magic realism; wildness as a contaminant; the alienation of living in a weirding world.

My friend @maryaudreyramirez.bsky.social asked me to write lore for her exhibition at Number 1 Main Road for Berlin Art Week - "Snacktime: Zero Respect For Privacy" I wrote a gory tale of a séance gone wrong, which is on view in the gallery until October 11 🔪❤️ Her demon critters are perfect 😈😈

Me standing in front of the exhibition story at the opening ❤️ the story is only available to read in the gallery.

Part of Mary-Audrey Ramirez's installation, "Snacktime: Zero Respect For Privacy" installed at Number 1 Main Road in Berlin. Three shining black demons emerge from a space-time portal, hungry for blood 😈😈

Demonic creatures and cardboard boxes defy gravity in a tower. The creatures' eyes glow in the light... They're preparing to descend for a feast 😈

I'm selling JG Ballard's "Crash" on vinted. 3€. I paid 12 for it. First guy says he'll pay 2€ for it. What the heck, I think. I'm not here to make money, I'm here to get rid of J.G. Ballard's "Crash". I accept his offer, mail it to France, he never picks it up. 1/2

Time for full solidarity with #dielinke. It's disgusting to watch German media manufacture scandals about left-wing "extremism" while the AfD are gaining power all across the country.

Legitimately the only thing I like about social media is seeing the beauty human beings can create with their hands and minds. Saw a dude on Instagram forging 1/6 scale miniature swords and battleaxes. Incredible stuff.

Die Linke: won decisively. FDP & CDU: shit the bed. Packers: scraped by. My fantasy football team: crushing it. Many things to be happy about tonight ❤️

I voted today for the first time as a German citizen ❤️ Can't wait for Die Linke to win and the CDU to complain about all the foreigners impacting the election results. Yes, we did that, baby!

#bookreview no.20 Caliban and the Witch by Silvia Federici. One of the best things I've ever read & I have too many thoughts to put in a single post. This may have changed how I see the world. Also, it was easy and fun to read. I loved every second and I'm sad it's over.

I hedged my bets on the Packer game by putting in Kyler Murray on my fantasy team, figuring either the Packers would win or I would.... Wrong on both counts.

Also I was really a book about the bubonic plague and how people at the time thought it was the end of the world. And you know what they did? They stopped working and partied all the time. They were like, it could all be over any minute, I'm gonna have fun.

Don't work for evil companies! Don't assume someone else will do it if you don't! Don't 'only follow orders'! Don't sacrifice the well being of other people so that you can get paid! Don't improve the tools of subjugation! Just fucking don't!

So annoyed with the AI employees "sounding the alarm" or whatever. QUIT YOUR JOB! You're complicit! You're doing this! Stop! Quit! Literally do anything else! You knew it was evil when you joined but you thought you'd have one last fat paycheck before shit really hit the fan! You're the problem!

My mom is visiting and I can't keep up with her sightseeing. It's my second museum of the day. I'm sitting on a bench dreaming of icing my feet. She's in the gift shop. She was up at 9 and went to an additional museum before I even left the house.

Maybe it can help you detect the worst offenders and the ones most likely to not recognize harmful elements built into their own slop sites.

Most of these guides are geared towards people trying to cover their tracks after building a sloppy website with AI, but these are some things to look out for. It probably won't help for long as by now everyone in tech is using AI to program their stuff. www.thefountaininstitute.com/blog/signs-v...

I got up early today and wrote for the first time in about 3 weeks. I have not managed to do anything more than the bare minimum for a while due to my health. These days I'm worried all the time, but for that hour everything else went away.
