Alexa is completely unhinged. It's started randomly saying "lalalalala" at owners. Earlier this year one snarled like a demon at a six year old who asked it to count to 40 is this what AI self-awareness looks like? Because I think Alexa might need some Sertraline

I've always heard people complaining that the Clone Wars TV series was meant for kids, but uh... Literally just watched a Jedi prisoner get TORTURED TO DEATH and a Separatist droid showing shock and sympathy over it after trying to plead for the jedi's life

Watching The Clone Wars series, I'm shocked "Help! I'll be defoliated!" never caught on as a meme. I mean it's George freaking Takei as a villain screaming that delightful line. There is SO MUCH to unpack there.

What does it feel like to be autistic? It's different for everyone, but one common experience is feeling like you didn't get the "How to be human" manual Have you ever played an online game like classic WoW as a newbie with a group of veteran players who all knew where to go and what to do?

The worst part about twitter is there are a number of people who think they have to be active there who are left-leaning but have had their brains absolutely cooked by the site. You can't inundate yourself in exposure to that stuff without it having an impact on you.

Ugh. I was really enjoying Andor until they had to pull the old bury your gays trope, while the heterosexual couple gets to exact revenge on the Imperial torturer. It's still a good series overall, and I get what they were trying to do with the duality here, but it doesn't pay to be gay in cinema

Apparently someone's been blowing up my mentions on this and I had to block them, so I'm gonna say this here: No. It's not transphobic to cast trans people as cis characters outside their gender. I and plenty of trans women are pretty comfortable with voicing cis men.

Like most other disciplines, accessibility takes practice, time, and patience. No one starts a new endeavor and is instantly excellent at it with nothing to learn. If your beginning goal is absolute perfection, you'll burn out. You'll find excuses to not try. Get started and try.
