Remember Polygon? He's back, in Pog form. I thought this would be a cute use of my stickers as something to give out that fits my retro vibe.

at this point saying they don't work at all, or only stochastically emit things from their training set, or can't solve novel problems, is denying their ability, but only in regards to coding. natural-language interfaces are here but you have to know what you're doing to use them effectively
the core problem of the whole agentic AI thing is that they work quite well for coding, and coders assume this means they will work quite well for everything else on the planet, because they are coders with a Silicon Valley mindset, and they tell this to investors with Silicon Valley money
We met on FurryMUCK, way back in '92 The dialup noises said I soon could chat with you The text was slow but didn't stop you coming through OwO And now I open an abandoned term window We read the scrollback and it seems so long ago Do you remember how the TS used to go OwO

"I Contain Multitudes" This digitally painted piece honors coyote by tracing its lineage from the first cells of life to the animal trotting our cities and the wilderness today. The thread gives descriptions of all the extinct organisms shown in this piece (not to scale)
Okay who was in Ballard and has the yellow car with the stickers of paw print, “good girl”, and “stay feral”? ;)
Coyote band watching tines do heads-together and then trying to copy them to get smarter but they just smash foreheads into one another and get dizzy
Retweet with your "Olde Furries" credentials: Reading The Class Menagerie in first run ;) <3
Retweet with your "Olde Furries" credentials: YERF. And yes, I had an uploadable account, too.
Retweet with your “Old Furries” credentials: Badges from @marcimcadam.bsky.social that aren’t ageplay-themed Two of them.
Retweet with your "Old Furries" credentials: I went to planning meetings for the first year of that long-dead pacific northwest con. No, not Rainfurrest, the one before that... ConiFur Northwest 1998.
Brainstorming a Playdate game idea, mostly-internal monologue: “Okay it’s like Lemmings but with little dinosaurs and instead of assigning roles you just send the dinos out and have them do abilities and you need to get them all across the map…” “…I just re-invented Lost Vikings, didn’t I.”
Nice to have a relationship where I can say “we need to take a detour through the park, you’ll see why” and then just hop up on a ledge, walk twenty feet over a pond, grab a thing from a shrine, and have the other person take it totally in stride 💜
A new drop in Seattle. You know where to find my scent. Some versions to take away to the side of the shrine itself.
Part 1 of the comic I've been working on for the past week, Coyote Helps Place the Stars!

If crossroads are liminal places, I wonder what kind of witchy herbs one could grow in a traffic circle garden…
Oh my gods I love these. Bring back illustrative book covers, US publishers :D
Back from 6 days in Bulgaria having a wonderful time at Bulgacon and associated events. Bulgarian covers to Time/Ruin are amazing.
Ah, that moment when you discover a random body response isn't just something everyone has that's so normal they don't talk about, but actually a minor medical condition... Yay? (You mean it's NOT normal that relatively-light scratching of bare skin will leave a raised red area?)
I made the Silicon Dawn and I have no idea what the heck TPOT is. I am also definitely not an Internet Rationalist, I generally consider that to be in the same bin of "intellectually smart but emotionally stupid people who use their idea of logic to justify being assholes".
So this sent me off into a weird reverie about the tangled relationship between postfurry, transhumanism, and rationalism. "Postfurry" as such arose in the early 2000s, out of a group of furries on a BDSM-focused, text-based roleplay environment called Tapestries. 1/
The problem with talking about the history of Postfurry in any "authoritative" way is that it's sort of just a bunch of stuff that a relatively small friends group did, that then got mythologized (and/or sometimes vilifed)
Hiiii stop me before I infodump about the weird tangled relationship between postfurry and transhumanism to random folks I don't know :D
:) i think rationalists lost their way when they forgot about the fun and cool aspects of transhumanism and tried to become all knowing gods, which is not even the easiest kind of god to become
