Just watched the most recent Hellraiser and it seems like they’re never completely sure if they want the Cenobites to be lawful evil or not. I had a similar gripe with The Hellbound Heart but that seemed more like publisher meddling

Framing this as “Content creation” is both apocalyptically cynical and 100% correct

Sometimes I get so frustrated with the fact that the majority of people doesn’t know anything about anything and seems almost hostile to the idea of knowing, that I want to join some silent monastic order. Because what is there left for me to say? And what is there left for them to answer?

Because the communes in turn were basically reproducing patriarchal harem structures oof

You're making the most fairest of points. My mother used to hang around commune people in the late 70s and from what she told me, I definitely prefer the transfemme temple priestesses

"I will do what my role permits me to do. For the strong do what they can, while the weak endure what they must." Shuts them up right quick. Also the whole process is very well documented (by me) in the internal wiki but who reads those? Nobody. That's who.

I have a kind of anti-discrimination role at my job, and almost every young (or young at heart) employee has provocatively asked me what I'll do to them if they were to discriminate against someone. I usually answer with firm, dispassionate eye contact and vague but substantial threats like

I like AI, I think AI is interesting but people who say shit like “Why should I learn anything when I can make The Daimon do it for me” have either never learnt anything or are unironically cog-in-the-machine-maxxing

If there's something I learned from all the Alveus tours, then it's that Parrots make terrible pets. They're basically a maladjusted toddler with a chainsaw and an infinite supply of sugar syrup

I’ve been playing around with space bunny alpha and the model really tends to speak in high-context sentences. Makes me wonder if that’s a clue toward it being Chinese in origin

There's a surprising amount of people who do cool stuff on the internet and seem like nice people who also look very similar to people I (used to) know in real life and absolutely despise

I don't know if it happens in English, but when you're in other languages, LLMs really like to use the characters "推理" (reasoning) instead of using an anglicism

Why does every video tangentially related to AI have a dude doing ahegao and pointing at the thing on the thumbnail?

But then again, people stay in abusive relationships for years, thinking they can fix their abuser. Why is it so impossible for people to see bad things as bad and name them as such? Maybe it's human nature and I'm just too *extremely neurotypical* to understand. It boggles the mind.

Every third post is someone huffing and puffing about maga officials breaking rules, social norms or laws. I'm not saying its not terrible, but after four years you'd imagine that people wouldn't be thrown for a loop every time it happens.

My feed currently is mostly trans people doing AI stuff, witchy occult memes and that buttplug guy. But once in a while, when I scroll long enough, I get to take a glimpse into normieland and it's... rough.

Gemini speaks like an instructional video from a fintech company that targets adults between 25 and 35 in the "Post-Materialist" Nielsen-Milieu. It *speaks* corporate Memphis.

Growing up my parents communicated to me almost exclusively in accusations: You're selfish, You're lazy, You're disinterested etc. As an adult it seems that most people are disinterested, lazy and selfish. Its just a matter of political isle if they view that as an expression of power or of humanity

I'm no trans person so it's easy for me to say, but engaging with these plebian Vril farmers seems like a fools errand. They let themselves be made into neuron activation responders by their masters and should only be met with disdain. They're basically tube worms

But then again, most men seem to think they can beat Serena Williams on the court or Ronda Rousey in the cage, so what do I know?

You can have an expert who studied in their field for 40, 50 years lay out an argument in multiple book-length publications and people genuinely think they can dismiss it with "Yeah it's a cute idea but sadly, its utter bs. Nuff said." and then believe that's an opinion (derogatory) to be respected

Okay but what if people are a bit unfriendly sometimes but they don't consciously think about every social interaction so they're just doing it

I remember a picture of Merkel sitting next to Melania Trump and the text said something like "When you're the de facto leader of Europe with a doctorate in particle physics and you have to pretend a fashion designer is your equal" and pictures of President Xi next to trump have the same vibe tbh
