Tried to wake up the cat over an hour ago to get her to play but she only wanted to sleep. Now that I’m in bed she woke up and is meowing that nobody will play with her 🫩

Might just wipe my whole IG account but Meta purposely makes it incredibly annoying to delete photos/posts on their apps. It forces you to end up stuck leaving your content there. Deleting whole account is an option but it's also a pain (can't view FB or IG posts from other people without an acct).

I should have went hiking at a park this weekend 😢 but walking in the neighborhood and sitting on the deck was nice too, I know these nice days are numbered (it’s already chilly at night).

Be patient and kind to those who are making art right now. We're all self-funded and the richest, worst people in the world are trying to plaster over and erase our hard work.

I rarely share much about my own relationship online because people create negative interpretations even for the most benign moments. (This couple didn’t even have a choice in going viral.) I think many project their own negative relationship experiences on others. Maybe self reflect instead!

I saw that clip circulating yesterday and thought there could be a completely normal, non-sexist, explanation other than the rage bait one. Grateful for this (really well-written!) peek into a loving family, sad she felt she had to write it. themomoftheyear.substack.com/p/im-the-mom...

This news is important because all the fucks out there actively attempting to wreck the world want you to think that the work is hopeless and just mitigating the worst case scenario. It's not. Fucking keep going.

We now have rigorous pooled data showing that even without active restoration efforts, cleared rainforest can rebound to 75% of their former species composition and 90% of species diversity within just thirty years. #goodnews

it's not hyperbolic to say that if the ways you talk and think about disabled/sick people (as well as the COVID precautions we may take) are indistinguishable from how fascists talk about disabled/sick people—even down to the same statements—then you have a fucking problem.

Aw you need AI to write code or fix bugs for you? You need AI to write for you? You need computer to come up with your ideas? 🥺 What a shame your skills and knowledge are so woefully lacking that the mediocre output of AI seems good to you.

Did y'all forget already that the Outlier game uses genAI?? (Screenshot from their own FAQ). A month ago they deactivated account because they got so much pushback, then had a crashout and used another acct to troll people about it. Just a head's up for anyone who wants to easily avoid AI products.

Screenshot from Outlier game site's FAQ page. Text says: Does Outlier use AI? Yes, the way we use every other tool here: writing and debugging code, digging through the data, checking word lists against dictionaries, drafting things we then rewrite. It decides nothing. The game, the rules, the scoring, which features ship and which get thrown out, which words get added and which get refused, all of that is ours. Every line of copy on this site was written or rewritten by a person, including this one.

I feel this sometimes, too. It's burnout from so much scary shit happening, a traumatized reaction. You're scared, freezing up in self-defense. But remembering it's not all bad is important. Despair and defeat are easy. Hope and collective action is work. Rest up, we have this, together.

Some days I get up and after a while, my heart goes ‘Everything is bad!’ And my brain goes ‘Is it though? What’s bad right now?’ And logically, nothing is currently actually bad. But my heart feels feels hurt, for some reason 🤷🏻‍♀️

Bought a $20 tv antenna (did you know they just look like a flat plastic rectangle now?) because I'm a Survivor sicko and want to watch the new season live but I refuse to play Paramount another dime. You can't even watch live on the basic plan they make you buy premium.
