I took a Spring Equinox walk in Spring Grove! Thunderstorms, heavy wind, and a freeze withered most of the blooming trees, but I still held their beauty in my memory. ๐Ÿ’œ

In an AI community call at work, the CTO asked how everyone was feeling, and most people said they were overwhelmed. I was like, "3 world changing technologies came out during my formative years: PCs, the internet, and cell phones. My brain developed around this kind of change and is wired for it."

The entire millennial identity is being prepared and groomed for a version of the world that stopped existing by the time we reached it

we slammed into a horizon painted on a brick wall like fucking looney tunes

Everyone skips past the 02 financial crisis because 09 was so bad.

But depending on how you parse millenial...it's been bad for awhile but also the worst bit is they grew up during a period where things were getting better and then got the rug pulled out from under them.

The woman noticed me greeting her cat back that time, and paused her conversation to tell me that her cat liked taking walks with her! ๐Ÿ˜ธ

During a walk on Sunday, a woman walking a dog passed me. A one-eyed cat was following her. The woman was on the phone, but the cat greeted me! I again encountered them, and, again, the woman was on the phone, but the cat greeted me! ๐Ÿ˜ป

A new friend gave me a tour of a market with a lot of vendors, specifically sharing with me everything that she really likes! It was so heartwarming that she took the time and wanted to share these things with me.

What to Do When You Donโ€™t Know What You Want | Wayward Witchery Feeling unsure about what you want? This reflective guide explores self-knowledge, inner alignment, and why focusing on feelings โ€“ not things โ€“ leads to real clarity and fulfilment.

Iโ€™ve been thinking a lot about how often weโ€™re taught to want things instead of understanding ourselves.

Not knowing what you want can be deeply honest โ€“ and deeply useful. ๐Ÿ’ซ

I wrote about it here, if it resonates:

If you want to understand where a very large swathe of "AI" is, today, then you very seriously need to engage w/ religious studies & mythology โ€” & understand I don't mean "mythology" in the pejorative sense of "falseness" or "fantasy;" I mean "animating beliefs," or "fundamental guiding narrative."

I feel like these media outlets trying to raise her up while blatantly ignoring things she says have some kind of collective Stockholm Syndrome or something.

Good job! I'm a more casual news reader, and even I know that she's doing all of this because she's aligning with a group that is even more extremely racist and xenophobic.

Tell me that lie of the land sleeping all winter and I'll laugh in your face. Tell you of all the trees I've talked to this morning before the frost retreated from sun. Relay conversations with cold spirits, my communion with stretching shadows. โ€“ย #EmilyCBanting #1982 #WitchSky

y'know, if tech companies weren't so fired up to call every single thing "AI" it would be a lot easier to distinguish "ML spam filter that is well-sandboxed and tuned on your emails" from "giant context and IP-eroding foundation model that makes people paranoid and unhappy"

None of that is happening. They're just Nazis who are mad Trump spent the last year on tariffs and defense against Epstein instead of isolationism and concentration camps.

They don't care that he's a pedophile. They care that he's an unsuccessful dictator.
