"What if I have legitimate concerns?" You don't. You were duped by a ring of billionaire pedophiles who are using an endangered, marginalized population as a wedge to remove all rights from everyone who isn't a wealthy cis het white Christian male. You're a fucking idiot.

I never shared this! It's my poem, Scrag End, from my collection folkish which was longlisted for the National Poetry Prize 2025, which was a very big and very lovely surprise at the time. 💚


Scrag End by Kym Deyn, longlisted for the national poetry competition 2025, from the book folkish.

Each time I clean someone else’s shit from the toilet,
a dead slug gets its wings. Mould patterns the ceiling,
forming little futures for lead-poisoned magicians. Once
the owner replaced the sinks with worse sinks. Once he
took the paint off our ceiling and left it there. I don’t live
here, only in the sense that I live here, with floor-holes
in the kitchen. When I polished the stairs I saw an image
of a home now gutted and piecemealed with expired
fire safety certificates. Hostile, with strangers smiling
over kitchen knives and old bread. There’s no yelling
 I’M TWENTY SIX AND WANT TO MAKE JAM    !
 and the water is an inch deep in the fridge, glossy
 yellow like sick. Fuck this world, not lost but taken
and smiling like it's fine. I want to be happy here
squatting and illegal as my body impersonates wet
cement and yes I get sicker, don’t recycle, flip off
flatmates behind their doors, buy expensive coffee
with would-be rent. I didn’t say I was good only alive,
but maybe worth more.

AI gen photos of food on menus for small restaurants almost always look like an alien mimic that you could cut into to reveal internal organs

I'd much rather be happy about what a cool 41 year old I am than sad about how I'm not 25 anymore.

Sony had success with PS1 and PS2, so with PS3 they got cocky, and 360 won. Xbox had success with 360, so with xbox one they got cocky, and Sony won. Sony has success with PS5, so with PS6 they got cocky.. Nintendo side won every time except for Wii u, which is when they got cocky.

my face when I googled something about my game darkwebSTREAMER and the genAI response declared that a man designed the pioneering language system that I, a woman, designed we were talking about erasure of women's achievements by LLMs YESTERDAY and today i see this? goddamn.

post shows a screenshot of google's AI response, then a question, then another response, with the following text:

Would you like to know more about how they built the procedural internet, details on the game's Twitch integration, or its estimated release date?


(human reply)
howo did they build the procedural internet

(google AI)
The development team behind darkwebSTREAMER bypassed standard game design templates to build what they call the "world's first procedurally generated internet". Instead of relying on static, pre-written text, the studio created a dynamic, reactive ecosystem using a custom-engineered blend of linguistic frameworks, anthropology, and proprietary Al systems.

Rather than utilizing modern Large Language Models (LLMs) which can break immersion or hallucinate incorrectly, they engineered a highly controlled, rule-based simulation from the ground up. Natural Language Processing (NLP) Architecture
• Dynamic Content Creation: Lead programmer Tony Li used his background in linguistics to design a bespoke NLP system. This system constructs text elements on the fly-including dark web forum posts, emails, and chat room logs-ensuring that grammar, syntax, and phrasing match a 1990s internet dialect.

When utilized in literature review, LLMs consistently 1. fail to mention female authors in female-led literatures, 2. insist that men are more influential or more heavily cited when this is contradicted by objective citation counts, and 3. attribute women’s work to hallucinated male scholars.

I've been rawdogging depression for years before it then took almost a decade to find meds that worked for me, I know a trick or two I've also mostly come to terms that my living space may just forever be "functional" and "not dangerous" instead of "tidy" or "beautiful"

use face wipes when you can't wash your face. Have disposable plates for when you can't do dishes. fold your laundry into a bin if you can't sort it into the closet. graze on your fridge contents if you can't cook. put rainbow foil on your windows so you don't see how dirty they are. who cares

A24 is issuing takedowns for all sorts of backrooms content on social media, as well as merch elsewhere right now, that have nothing to do with the movie. I feel like a lot of people were afraid this would happen. They just... own the backrooms concept now I guess. Frustrating

@pressprogress.ca is proud to join 100+ journalists, news publishers, academics and civil society groups in endorsing calls for anti-SLAPP legislation in Alberta Frivolous, abusive and politically motivated SLAPP lawsuits are a threat to free and democratic speech READ MORE: antislappalberta.ca

"Whether it's a journalist investigating powerful people, a civil society group or simply an ordinary person with opinions about their government, democracies need legal mechanisms to protect free and democratic speech advocating for social change, from frivolous, abusive and politically motivated lawsuits"

It's not joy people are expressing, it's despair. Despair that these are the people with power of life and death over us. The worst people on Earth, and there seems to be nothing we can do about it because even the "opposition" wants the same things: the perpetuation of inequality and pain.

My world, my Earth is a ruin. A planet spoiled by the human species. We multiplied and fought and gobbled until there was nothing left, and then we died. We controlled neither appetite nor violence; we did not adapt. We destroyed ourselves. But we destroyed the world first.
