but in all seriousness, I legit think this particular discourse will be interesting because this was A) what appears to be a single incident (which we don't know how severe) B) that happened a decade-ish ago? internet feminism is not what it was; I'm curious if this affected Geller's audience

finally, my vague uneasy intuitions around a guy are proven right in a way I if-I'm-being-honest wasn't entirely expecting

Christening a baby is nothing like christening a ship. I know that now. Once again I can only apologise.

and it sucks because Shamus Young's fanfiction is actually a far better approach to a human dealing with an apocalyptic artificial intelligence www.shamusyoung.com/shocked/

I mean there are plenty of prides that are cringe, but also there are fates far worse than merely being cringe

overpoweredginger.bsky.social @overpoweredginger.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

I mean there are absolutely sex cult leaders within the broader rat umbrella (shout-out to Brent Dill) because the apocalyptic millennialism structure of ai existential risk beliefs enables that kind of power dynamic but yeah it is notable that Yudkowsky doesn't seem to have any zipper problems

the only reason you think Aella is required reading (which you don't even read her writing; required gawking is a better term) is because she looks good naked even the weird libertarian impulse she *does* explain is done so better with this breunig clip youtu.be/Ffa9eLkf0Ko

again, nah not really? the key to understanding American AI is that it's a uniquely structured doomsday cult nothing Aella's done elucidates doomsday cults, for obvious reasons, so you're just gawking at the autistic libertarian weirdo bc she doesn't poop & you've seen her tits

overpoweredginger.bsky.social @overpoweredginger.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

the nicest way I can put this is that focusing on Aella as the face of what's wrong with AI/Rationalism is Pizzagate for people who think they're too smart for Pizzagate

there's a reason every original Muppet story after The Show has been grappling with the role of the Muppets in popular culture on a metatextual level; even when those were made it was showing its age

overpoweredginger.bsky.social @overpoweredginger.bsky.social · 11/09/2026

the institutions that produce "Names" (ie personal media brands) don't do so by teaching someone technical acting chops & small/silver-screen charisma like don't get me wrong I'd kill to see Trammel Tillman or Rhea Seehorn doing musical numbers with Ms Piggy, but that's a relic of the past

overpoweredginger.bsky.social @overpoweredginger.bsky.social · 11/09/2026

honestly I don't think it's a matter of obscurity, more that those pipelines that take a regional theater actor from romcoms to awards-bait drama up through the rungs etc etc are broken and haven't been replaced

also, and a serious question here, are there enough actual celebrities to warrant a full run of the show? the landscape isn't what it used to be

honestly having seen that pilot I kinda get why they'd come to that decision lol

amazing like bro, Bin Laden goaded Bush into doing (a major factor in) what killed the Soviets and as far as we can tell his plan is working deeply short-sighted and literal

nah she's not evil, she's just ideological skunkworks with a twitter account she's the epitome of Matt Breunig's thesis that Libertarians Need More Autism she's what happens when people with a high ACE score don't get professional help and also don't die

like you're gonna pick Aella as your Bay Area Cult Leader and not Yudkowsky or even Brent Dill? gee I wonder why

ngl putting Aella in the same league as Crowley & Hubbard reads to me like someone is afraid of all women unless they're barefoot in the kitchen

I'm torn between being frankly embarrassed for Disney because of how much they can't do anything new (and it's also just flat-out bad for culture, don't @ me), and seeing Jackman's frankly legendary performance in DP&W's (I'll be generous and call it) bare-bones script and wanting more screen-time

Many of you.

A panel from the manga "The 100 Girlfriends who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You" in which a young man walks casually down the street while saying to himself "HO MAN! YOU THINK
THERE'S ANY WOMEN OUT THERE WITH BLACK HAIR AND DARK SKIN AND CAT EARS tHAT HAVE GONE A LITTLE KOOKOO FROM TRYING TO
FIND SOMEONE TO MARRY?I'D SUUURE
LOVE TO FIND A WOMAN WITH BLACK HAIR AND DARK SKIN AND CAT EARS

I might lock you in a room with nothing but a copy of the Lancer core rulebook because that thing is one of the most Post-Trek things of all time in a spirit suspiciously similar to yours and also because there's no other way you'd read through it otherwise
