Spent some time this summer touching grass and shooting street portraits with the locals. I'm on the hunt for a new series now that the weather's turning ...

... All I really want for Christmas are legal penalties for companies trying to pass off their shitty AI golems as real humans.

Hey all! I'm hosting a workshop about freelancing as a software developer, geared for people who are new to the biz. I'm aiming for late June, and I'd love to hear from you: What topics are you interested in? What format works for you? forms.gle/qocSwYeiGfDZ... (Reposts always appreciated. ❤️)

Unpopular opinion incoming. The problem isn't capitalism. It's assholes. [redacted exposition on assholes redefining capitalism and perverting Adam Smith's invisible hand] [redacted fanfic about invisible hands and assholes] [revolution] And kids, that's how @buttplug.engineer became emperor.

System prompt: Tell me I'm a piece of shit and fight me on everything; you better have evidence you can back up with citations. I'm gonna look at every thing you send me with caustic cynicism and criticism. Fuck you. [6 months later] I can't wait to tell LinkedIn about how amazing I am OMG.

The best and worst thing about being an American who (kinda) speaks German is understanding what Germans are saying about Americans these days. 😅

"Good for business." Holy shit does that mean a lot of things. Pretending to be an F100 company, defending your turf and protecting your wealth ... ... or being an entrepreneur, and taking a fair shot at solving other people's problems? Defending yourself vs. solving bigger problems. Hmm. 🤔

I don't share this lightly. I believe @devingaffney.com and the @graze.social team are working toward a future that transcends borders and bank accounts. "Decentralization" is a word that scares people with too much money and power. Fuck 'em. Let them be scared. Let's build something better. ❤️

Decentralized platforms aren't just better for users - it's better for business too. Read below about how we beat industry benchmarks in a recent donation drive for public media on the @graze.social sponsored content market, and what that means for the future of decentralized social media!

The antidote to "MCU fatigue" is the Gen Z version of a low-fi flick about a guy drilling his head because of math, or maybe a bunch of shitty people monologuing and murdering to a retro soundtrack. Aronofsky is 56. Tarantino is a Boomer. ... but I'm old. Who are the filmmakers I'm missing out on?

Hollywood just posted its worst box office since 1981 adjusted for inflation(excluding the pandemic). The franchise formula is breaking down as MCU fatigue is real and half the sequels this summer underperformed prior entries. The audience is sending a message, but studios aren’t listening.

I'm disappointed with recent dystopian fiction. "The Ministry of the Future" and "Fall" and others ... Blockchain? Singularity? AI? They focus on tech, not humanity. The joy (uhhh?) of 1984 and F451 isn't the technology, it's the psychology. What's a good, modern, human centric, dystopian fiction?

It is snowing heavily and I went out to bash snow off the plum before it breaks again. ME: I am just going outside and may be some time. ME: *waits expectantly* KEVIN: I don’t get the reference. ME: 😍 OMG LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THE SCOTT EXPEDITION
