Without downloading any new pics, where are you mentally?

I think this result emphasizes the economic issues a bit much, but I am right on the border of Union Organizer, too, which also feels apt. bambamramfan.github.io/ai-compass/

A graph displaying my position on AI based on this quiz. The matrices are GOOD/BAD and OVERHYPED/TRANSFORMATIVE, and I am positioned on the overhyped side, well into the bad side. My result is dubbed The Skeptic: "It's oversold, it's losing staggering amounts of money, and the harms are arriving faster than the value. You've done the math on the unit economics and it doesn't close. You are loud about this, prolific about this, and you suspect history will vindicate you."

I get spam text messages every day, typically trying to buy my house (which is not for sale) or offering me a job (that I didn’t ask for). Today they were too lazy to even remove the AI garbage from the top before copy/pasting.

A message from a spammer with what appears to be text from an AI prompt result, which reads:

“Here are three fresh versions of the message with distinct structures, keeping all the data points identical, but changing the delivery style.

Option 1: Executive Summary Style
Amazon Recruiting: Remote Staff Opening"

This song is seven years old and (sadly) continues to resonate.

Lyrics from "The World Is On Fire" by American Aquarium:

So I packed up my car and went lookin' for answers
To the questions weighin' on my mind
When did The Land of the Free become The Home of the Afraid?
Afraid of the world, afraid of the truth
Afraid of each other

This ain't the country my grandfather fought for
But I still see the hate he fought against
Give rest to the tired, give mercy to the poor
Give warmth to the huddled masses
And I'll show you freedom

The load is heavy and the road is long
And we've only begun to fight
We just can't give in, we just can't give up
We must go boldly into the darkness

And be the light

Still one of the most right things ever said on the internet.

A post from Deborah Roseman (@roseperson) that reads, "This quote about respect isn't 100%, applicable to the trending topic of hte day, yet I can' stop thinking about it. HT stimmyabby.tumblr.com".

Below that is an image of another quote that reads,"Sometimes people use 'respect' to mean 'treating someone like a person' and sometimes they use 'respect' to mean 'treating someone like an authority'

and sometimes people who are used to being treated like an authority say 'if you won't respect me I won't respect you' and they mean 'if you don't treat me like an authority I won't treat you like a person'

and they think they're being fair but they aren't. and it's not okay."

Most of the places I don't want to live are due to political or weather (humidity is a bane) or both, but Hawaii is off-limits mostly bkz I don't belong there. And before you ask, Indiana is where I currently live, so.

A color-coded map of the USA from whereidlive.com that allowed me to rank which states would live in based on a scale of 1 (never) to 5 (absolutely). Florida and Idaho are the big losers here.

Without downloading any new pics what's it like dating you?

We got like... 5 or 6 inches of snow over the past couple days. The leaves weren't even off the trees yet!

A large black dog standing in the middle of a snowy backyard scene. The dog's tracks are visible where he's been walking through the fairly deep snow. Another house, a shed, and a large tree, all coated in a blanket of fluffy snow, are also visible.

Thanks to this article on Book Riot, I feel fine about my reading. bookriot.com/how-many-boo...

A quote from an article by Chris Arnone at Book Riot: "Statistically, averages are useful, but are heavily skewed by outliers. The median is the mathametical breaking point for a statistical group, with roughly half of numbers sitting above or below it. The median for the 2016 study and the better indicator of the average reader in America is four. The average American reader reads four books each year. Feeling better about your TBR pile now, aren't you?"

What movie do you consider "perfect"?

From "Hot Fuzz": the interior of a police vehicle involved in a high-speed chase. Danny (Nick Frost) is in the left seat, hands on the wheel, and Nicholas (Simon Pegg) is in the right seat, wielding a gun. Both men look suitably intense. Between the two men, a large white swan is visible in the back seat. The swan's face is hard to read.

reskeet with a tweet you still think about

A tweet from user @PleaseBeGneiss:
[restaurant]
RACCOON (in trench coat): one egg
WAITER: one egg? *suspicious* you're not from around here, are you?
RACCOON: t-two eggs?
WAITER: ah yes, that's a normal quantity of eggs
RACCOON: *excitedly* five eggs!
WAITER: *eyes narrow*

Aside from all the obvious issues one could have with Gavin Newsom and his garbage podcast, I am also super disturbed by that damn comma. WTF. Why is it there?!
