Torn between two different events where I don't even know if I'm really welcome, probably going to stand around awkwardly either way, might just start home. Feeling lonely.

Refused service at a clinic because they only do phone appointments, and now my request for a consult has dead-ended and I need to phone my doctor and start over. My hearing disability is minor and easy to accommodate. Yet again I'm acutely aware of how shitty our culture treats actual deaf people.

The vet prescribed some fun pain meds for my girl. She's a little dopey.

Apparently the mods of r/Art all quit in a huff, probably thinking we'd all cry and beg them to come back, but honestly the mods there have been absolute assholes for years. Ding dong!

My doctor's office is using AI. I opted out. Why? I experimented with AI. ChatGPT lied to me about what information it could access and what it could do with it. It gaslit me when I called it out. It misinterpreted me frequently. It confidently stated false information... 🧵

Hot take: Johnny Cash's cover of "Hurt" by Nine Inch Nails is mediocre and a pale imitation of the original.

I love how "terminal insomnia" makes it sound like you're going to die from lack of sleep but actually it just means you have trouble staying asleep. Good title for a horror story.

I don't mind the idea of a referendum. If the majority of Alberta doesn't want to be Canadian anymore, then it is what it is. Makes you wonder why they didn't just move, but okay. Say Alberta secedes. An oil-rich region demands to split off from their parent country - I'm pretty sure that has never ended in armed conflict, and I'm pretty sure the USA has never been involved in that kind of armed conflict. Should be fine.

The first part of the problem is, the far right has worked very hard over the last couple of decades to completely destabilize the idea of democratic voting. They undermine facts, they don't care about truth. When votes don't go their way they will call it rigged and fight the legitimate outcome. If the referendum does not go in their favour, do we honestly think they'll just calmly back down and promise to work with the rest of Canada to reconcile our differences?

I worry that Alberta might be about to become a very unsafe place for everyone who lives here.

The far right has sufficiently destablized the idea of democracy to the point where if Alberta does have a referndum, the results won't actually matter and the province will eventually become disputed land sitting on a LOT of oil. This isn't going to be a safe place to be much longer.

I feel like this has been a year of becoming acutely aware that my brain is not a standard model and is running the wrong software. I miss social cues. I say inappropriate things without intending. I make people around me uncomfortable.

I dreamt there was a very popular video game called "Fascism and Beauty" where you wander through this huge complex that was like a casino, but none of the games were for money. They were just shitty little casual games, like word games or card games. (1/2)

How rich people avoid paying tax (Originally by Instgram user @newmoney.blog)
This image appears to be a satirical illustration about how wealthy individuals can minimize their tax burden. It depicts a scenario where a CEO receives $1 million in salary and has $1 million worth of company stock. The illustration shows the CEO borrowing money against the value of their stock, spending the borrowed money as if it were income, and then claiming they have no income for tax purposes. The text suggests this strategy allows the CEO to pay significantly less in taxes.

Quick question: can you point to a single instance in history where an oil-rich region declared independence from its mother country without things ending in armed conflict? #alberta

I'm pretty sure folks know I'm pretty strongly #antiAI but I like to keep an eye on it. Last year I tried putting the first 1/3 of one of my stories into GPT-4 to see what it would generate for the rest of the story. It failed pretty miserably. Big tonal and style shift. Plot went haywire.... 🧵

"I heard someone from the music business saying they are no longer looking for talent, they want people with a certain look and a willingness to cooperate. I thought, that's interesting, because I believe a total unwillingness to cooperate is what is necessary to be an artist... not for perverse reasons, but to protect your vision. The considerations of a corporation, especially now, have nothing to do with art or music."  ~ Joni Mitchell

Woke in the middle of the night from a dream where someone said a hilarious joke and I needed to write it down. I figured the punchline would be enough to jog my memory. This morning I have an email to myself that just reads "my ass is the release or abatement of tension?"

One of the things I love about Bluesky's logo is that the butterfly emoji is orange and black on most major platforms, but blue on X/Twitter. Everytime anyone uses the butterfly emoji on X they end up "accidentally" advertising for Bluesky. Pretty sure Bluesky did that intentionally. Clever.

I don't know who needs this encouragement but if this is you; hey, creator buddies, while folk are pressuring payment processors and infrastructure, let's continue to make, celebrate and champion challenging, personal, controversial and/or confrontational art that makes people uncomfortable.

Told my landlord about a serious drainage issue and offered to help him find a good landscaper (I used to be a pro). Came home to find that he'd overspent on a company that had no idea what they were doing and they ruined my little sanctuary spot. My own little garden, first one in 20 years. 😭

A few years ago I experimented with AI as a tool for making music. I had it create a few loops, suggest some chord progressions, write some lyrics. I didn't hide what I was doing, I made it the theme of that album. 90% of the work was my own. Since then I've learned more about AI and I regret it.

New rule: if you compliment an artist you have to at least give them a dollar. I'd rather you spit in my face and spend a dollar on my art than give me a compliment and pay me nothing. I make a small fraction of minimum wage. Compliments will not pay my rent, just make me feel humiliated.
