Brittany @sameoldstory.co · 21hThere are a few things about my body (sensitive eyes, itchy nose, dots on my leg skin) that I have just kind of assumed are part of being human (I mean, it’s still true), but it turns out they are various named health conditions 3160

Brittany @sameoldstory.co · 28/09/2026I know I am complaining about the anti-AI discourse a lot lately but (kind of like the forever masking thing) I just ran out of patience. You don’t need to like AI and truly I think probably it’s better to not use it if you are not pretty informed of how it works and the companies behind it 1241

Reposted by BrittanyJack @kuuga.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I think it's bad that intellectual nuance is held in automatic suspicion. I think a lot of people have been negatively polarized against precision and rigorous epistemics because of bad-faith trolls misusing the language of skepticism and nuance to advocate for repressive status quo and regression. 2464

Brittany @sameoldstory.co · 27/09/2026One thing I dislike about the anti-AI crew on here (and I understand I follow some people who identify as such, and afaict I don’t think any of you guys are doing this!) is many of the folks think their pro-human stance justifies some pretty absurdly anti-social behavior 711310
