I said "happy monday!" to a woman at work and she immediately goes "why u lying"

united states of america now squarely in stage 4 as predicted

@ekis 💀💀

@_elena well then it's good you have everything you need. the skills, the values, the motivation, the creativity, and the unconditional support of the community. we're really with you on this no matter what.
it's a very cool announcement and I think a lot of people will be interested in where you take it.

@_elena just being silly! have a brilliant time making this thang 💪💪

@_elena dope as hell! do you have a good toot consultant, because I know somebody on here who will freelance

human use of connotation and metaphor is a big part of why LLMs will never surmount the slop problem that renders them useless. you can't use an algoritim to produce meaningful material from language when every word has inconsistent meaning. I think for that reason LLMs will never be able to produce meaning. they can produce only sloppy garbage. I am sick of them, and I cant wait for the bubble to burst and for those who are going to lose their money to it to come to their senses.

@PacificNic absolutely. make them feel small and weak, harm them brutally, break their weak little bodies and their pathetic will, take and destroy what they love. they will only then listen to the facts, not because the facts have merit but because you took the time to engage with them in kindness by speaking to them in their own language, the only one they will ever fucking understand.

@dgar "hrp, prp-a-drp, prp-a-drp, prp-a-drp" 🤣🤣🤌 shit, I thought it was just something wrong with mine

the tiktok to rednote mass user migration made me chortle.

due to US fear of CCP totalitarianism the US implemented a totalitarian policy to protect US users from CCP totalitarianism, driving US users toward CCP totalitarianism because they experience CCP totalitarianism as less totalitarian than US totalitatianism.

my favourite part is how the only alternative to totalitatianism was education and these users were like "HARD no".

CCP pure evil but they deserve access to their new subjects.

maybe the real whatsit was the thingies we wossnamed along the watchimacallit.

the problem with books is they require an investment of time, effort, and sustained attention.

the problem with the news is that it doesn't.

the brutal mf means me specifically, I just know it.

I need to lay off the useless attention products and read more actual, factual books.

"it takes huge introspection to learn the 30+ hours spent on the news last month neither had any predictive ability during your activities, nor did it impact your current knowledge of the world. this is similar to our weaknesses in our ability to correct for past errors. like a gym membership taken to satisfy a new years resolution, people often think it will be the next batch of news that will really make a difference to their understanding of things"

keep your friends close and your enemies even closer unless your enemies excel at hand to hand combat

@Ruth_Mottram @hart great idea, they should force this through as it is the only viable option for America as it currently has no political prospects at all after Jan. I just hope they don't overpay for it, since its probably not going to be worth much and it is depreciating fast

in his extremely useful book Are Men Animals? anthropologist Matthew Gutmann argues that predatory behaviour by men is in no way inevitable. men behave the way they do because culture permits it, not because biology demands it.

I am on Chapter 1 and I have learned a book's worth of information already. I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in doing their part to systematically end mens violence against women.

@ekis then do the podcast and delete the toot. and dont tell us which poddy it is.

science will never be able explain the feeling created by seeing sunshine passing through giant monstera leaves
