Screenshot from the article that reads, The Stud, San Francisco's oldest gay bar, was only able to have its Meta pages restored because of the bars popularity among gay tech executives with connections to Meta

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:
Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

Melbourne just did a few months of free public transit; surely that would sufficiently show up in the data for this to be invalidated or validated

On the *same day* the Cornell Seven drugged and raped Jane Doe, Cornell banned four students (including the President of Cornell JVP) from campus for three years for nonviolent, pro-Palestine protests. The same Cornell officials let the rapists off with apology essays.

Certain kinds of smart people tend to have a "sexy apocalypse" problem when it comes to thinking about risk. E.g. skynet turning everyone in paperclips, while bad, is also *kind of cool and fun* at the same time. Where the reality is that most actual disasters are both stupid and disappointing.

Counterpoint: these geese were AI doomers before the free compound or access to money (or somehow sex?). They were "True Believers" before this "perk" period. Whether the perks exist or not, that's not the point of being a true believer

If you tilt your head sideways, squint your eyes, and like leaps of logic, lots of communities in the bay can be sex cults. The rationals are dweebs on their own merits, we don't need to hallucinate that lame harry potter fanfic is a recruiting tool for a sex cult

Twicefire <> GabbyMcNabb 🦘 @twicefire.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
The bay is filled with non-monog/poly people, so there are lots and lots of social networks where many people have "kissed" one another

I have been exposed to parts of their thinking for 15+ years now and generally think they're quite silly. But this just feels like a weird nasty beat-up. If you want a story about a real guru-sex-scandal that destroyed a bay area based peer-counseling community, I got one for you. This ain't it

Ok, I've read about as much of this as I can be bothered too and... By this poster's standards, there would be umpteen numbers of wacko communities in the Bay Area alone that would count as sex cults. I get it dude; they are a bunch of weirdos, and now have this prominence.

Rationalism rocks. Love any philosophy that tells me: 1) My actions are moral if I help a greater quantity of future people than the real ones I harm 2) There is an infinite quantity of future people 3) Thus, it's essential that I make as much money as possible by doing things I already want to do

A friend of mine works in AI and thinks bad things are about to happen. He sold his home and moved his family out the country. He said that if you own a home in a walkable San Francisco neighborhood near a taqueria with good veggie options, you should sell your home for super cheap right now.

genuinely, if you're not re-evaluating your position on AI at least once every 1-2 months and re-evaluating how it performs for the types of tasks important to you, then you are not actually challenging your priors. i know this is crazy! but thats how fast things are moving right now.
