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.

Extra irony: no idea what the name of the clinic is because I couldn't hear it properly, so now I can't even complain.

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.

Diagnosis: possible UTI. Vet said it could just be stress, so I imagine taking her to the vet didn't help.

Leaving the vet's. No fatalities. Vet still has both her eyeballs. Very proud of my monster. #badcat #goodgirl

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!

I do not trust AI with any of my personal information and neither should you.

especially when that information got increasingly technical and niche. After the latest batch of lawsuits against OpenAI for multiple people who were (allegedly) talked into ending their lives or going into a deep psychosis, I deleted my account.

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.

Currently at all polling station in #YEG where the lines are moving really slowly because the volunteers were not trained. People are leaving in frustrating. Makes you curious why this would happen. #Edmonton #election

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.

#alberta #abpoli #albertareferendum
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.

Yesterday I said something incredibly rude to a group of people and I just wanted to crawl under a rock. I don't even know how or if I should apologize without coming across as even weirder.

I feel like everyone around me is cringing, and I'm cringing at myself too but I can''t find my balance and just keep falling.

I feel like sometimes I come across as cold and distant while actually craving more connection. When I'm in my element I think I do really well and even come off as charming, but when I'm in a space where I don't understand the rules I act like an idiot.

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.

You could click on everything and there would be some kind of effect. I clicked on an NPC and the game informed me I was now "65% more colorblind" which did not serve me well on my next mini game that required me to identify obscure company logos.

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)

Removed Facebook from my phone because I realized I was just doom scrolling through a sea of ads and AI and it was not great for my mental health. Haven't left entirely yet, we'll see.

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

As much as it bruises my ego to admit, I think there were several things Chat GPT-5 did better than me in its version of the story.

One Faraday DC @onefaraday.bsky.social · 29/08/2025
When I told it my twist, it not only picked apart the meaning of the twist better than many readers did, it also gave a clear and reasonable plan to take the story to that ending. It made me realize: there are probably plenty of authors using this as a shortcut. I am competing against AI already.

One Faraday DC @onefaraday.bsky.social · 29/08/2025
It correctly guessed multiple scenes, character interactions, location descriptions, and plot points in ways that sent chills up my spine. It really looked like something I could have written. It didn't correctly guess my twist ending but suggested multiple other really good options for twists...

Characters were inconsistent. No structure. Last night I tried the same text with GPT-5, and my stomach sank. It was absolutely uncanny how well it imitated my style and picked up the mood of the story. Characters consistent, plot well-charted...

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
