A world where a twist ending is repurposed as a video title. where a thing's climax has been removed, leaving an advertisment for the gap where it used to be. such things are commonplace in. the twilight zone

i miss the hold and drag UI for the timer in iOS control center :( the new timer interface in iOS 27 is more precise but now it takes 3 taps instead of one! also holding the button now brings up Alarm/Stopwatch options. would much rather holding bring up the old timer UI and tapping open the new UI

Philosophers often bring up the "principle of charity": a willingness to assume good faith in an interlocutor and treat them accordingly. It's good to do in many circumstances. But it is worth formulating a principle of not being a fucking mark. If not during the rise of fascism, then when? 12/

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI
recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

I'm from Minneapolis. I want AltNPS to be very, very careful with how they react to ICE murdering a woman in my city this morning. I've referred to their previous posts as "ICE raid erotica," and I imagine AltNPS will milk this murder for content, just like they did with those raids.

The core principle of liberalism, if it can be said to have one at all, is that politicians can sort of meekly advocate for a preferred outcome, but any action to attain that outcome (outside of capital doing it for profit) is suspect at best and illegitimate at worst. It’s government by op-ed.

Dav Pilkey predicted an orange man taking away all the books and making everyone supa dumb
page from Dog Man vol. 1 by Dav Pilkey:

BEFORE TOO LONG:
Three people holding blank books: "Rats! all the Books on earth are Blank!" "aw man!" "woe is us!"

SOON EVERYBODY FORGOT ABOUT READING.
Two people tossing books over their shoulders: "OH well" "what ever"

AND PEOPLE STARTED GETTING REALLY DUMB!!!
Three goofballs, one smacking his head with a hammer, another picking his nose: "DOY" "DOYee" "SUPA DOY!"

2 WEEKS LATER...
An orange cat in a tower labeled 'Petey's Secret Lab': "Awesome!"

Cat holding a gauge that reads, from right to left, 'GENIUS, SMART, OK, DUMB, SUPA DUMB'; the gauge points to below 'SUPA DUMB': "The world is supa dumb!!!"

East Tennessee, Summer unedited jpegs #photography #📷 #landscape
A cloudy day. An outdoor self-service carwash built with red brick, with a forest green roof and red gutters. Above a couple coin and vending machines hangs a red awning reading "VENDING" and "CHANGE". No cars are visible.Gentle morning sun. A vast field of green crops extends behind tall wildflowers and weeds on the roadside. In the misty distance, the obscured impression of tree-covered mountains is visible. A flock of geese coasts above it all.Partly-cloudy morning. Sunlight filters through a tree trapped behind a long barbed wire fence, reflecting off the asphalt road outside. Innocuous electricity poles stand nearby; in the distance, tall spotlights stand more ominously above squat buildings.

his posts are always so shockingly spot on to what Frye was saying (when you understand that to him, gay = woman = bad)
To say that straight men are heterosexual is only to say that they engage in sex (fucking exclusively with the other sex, i.e., women). All or almost all of that which pertains to love, most straight men reserve exclusively for other men. The people whom they admire, respect, adore, revere, honor, whom they imitate, idolize, and form profound attachments to, whom they are willing to teach and from whom they are willing to learn, and whose respect, admiration, recognition, honor, reverence and love they desire… those are, overwhelmingly, other men. In their relations with women, what passes for respect is kindness, generosity or paternalism; what passes for honor is removal to the pedestal. From women they want devotion, service and sex.

Heterosexual male culture is homoerotic; it is man-loving.
