Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

Also like, why hype should we consider the possibility of being true here. That it works? At all? That it increases productivity? That it will replace all human jobs and lead to utopia powered by a galaxy sized Dyson sphere of Nvidia GPUs operated by Oracle?

You can tell pretty easily when the robot is driving because it behaves in very inhuman ways. It makes a thousand tiny course corrections while going straight on a simple road; the wheel is constantly moving. It actually stops at stop signs. It actually gives pedestrians their right of way.

The robot gets bamboozled when a weeping willow is leaning over the road. The robot gets bamboozled when an asshole driver blocks it in on a narrow road. More than anything, the robot gets bamboozled because Google/Waze thinks a lot of driveways are actually public roads.

Lotta not reading past the misleading headline going on with this article, I've noticed. I ride in these all the time. When the robot gets bamboozled, you press a button and an operator picks up and remote piloting fixes the problem (or, according to them, tells the robot how to fix the problem).

I cannot recommend this product enough. $100 little wet vac area rug scrubber from Hoover. When Jeffrey was having his intestines troubles (💩), this is how my apartment survived.

Duolingo* needs a Let Me Live mode. Fuck off, bird, I'm working 16 hour days right now. 🤬

*I know I shouldn't be using Duolingo anymore because their techbro goon boss has turned into yet another Bond villain—but god damnit I'm simply bedeviled with meetings et cetera

Imagine if they found out all us gatekeepers are crippled with self doubt and imposter anxiety constantly!

It's almost like life doesn't actually have an easy button!

The Mothership Vortex: An Investigation Into the Firm at the Heart of the Democratic Spam Machine How a single consulting firm extracted $282 million from a network of spam PACs while delivering just $11 million to actual campaigns.

The annoying spam texts destroying the Democratic brand:

$678M raised through those spam tactics

$282M to one consulting firm: Mothership Strategies.

$11M to actual campaigns (1.6%)

The party isn’t just treating donors like marks—it’s being fleeced itself yet continues to back Mothership.

incredible how many people are willing to say “for years I didn’t care about anybody but myself. then one day, I imagined what it would be like to be somebody else and it completely changed the way I saw everything”

Years ago I was at New York Pride and I remember running into this couple and they told me they drove like five hours to be at Pride and I was like, “Five hours? Why would you drive five hours?” And he said to me, “This is the one time a year and the only place where I can hold my partner’s hand and kiss my partner in the street without having to look around first. It’s the only place. I don’t have that anywhere else.” One time a year. One place. This is it. And that’s what Pride means. - bob the drag queen

Possibly my favorite summation of Pride

Rep. Laurel Libby, R-Auburn, recently used my second-place finish in the 1,600-meter run, and that of my teammate in the 800-meter run, to malign Soren Stark-Chessa, the trans-identified athlete who finished first. One of the reasons I chose to run cross-country and track is the community: Teammates cheering each other on, athletes from different schools coming together, and the fact that personal improvement is valued as much as, if not more than, the place we finish. Last Friday, I ran the fastest 1,600-meter race I have ever run in middle school or high school track and earned varsity status by my school’s standards. I am extremely proud of the effort I put into the race and the time that I achieved. The fact that someone else finished in front of me didn’t diminish the happiness I felt after finishing that race. I don’t feel like first place was taken from me. Instead, I feel like a happy day was turned ugly by a bully who is using children to make political points. We are all just kids trying to make our way through high school. Participating in sports is the highlight of high school for some kids. No one was harmed by Soren’s participation in the girls’ track meet, but we are all harmed by the hateful rhetoric of bullies, like Rep. Libby, who want to take sports away from some kids just because of who they are. Anelise Feldman Freshman, Yarmouth High School Yarmouth

this is a letter to the editor from a high school track runner who came in second to a trans girl in a race. her state house rep in maine started talking about it. so she wrote this: www.pressherald.com/2025/05/14/r...

I seriously thought that students not using their brains and letting them rot inside their heads was going to be the existential problem with ai in academia, but now I see that the death knell is actually the total disruption of good faith and trust between teachers and students

Microsoft's own research confirms something that was already pretty obvious: relying on a text generating machine to come up with answers erodes critical thinking, and is a method favoured by those who never liked doing critical thinking in the first place

‘Stop making your writing political’ the privileged cry, whilst the existence of the authors identity is actively erased by the corrupt fascist government’s stochastic terrorism and hate crime rockets.

No.

If learning makes you uncomfortable, maybe reading just isn’t for you?

So very many of my friends & coworkers have lost everything / too much. Please support mutual aid efforts. It's very very bad here.

Appreciate you DC 🧡 I'm fine. I decamped to my sister's house about 30 miles away from the fires. My neighborhood is still fine despite fires on all sides—not worried about my home, just was worried about midnight emergency evac traffic so decided to get ahead of it

Jeffrey was very upset with the entire situation (yes my fake tree is still up)
