Last week, my best friend flew in to see me here in Korea. So many moments passed where I felt I wasn't appreciating her presence enough; so

I've been making changes in my personal life that I haven't spoken very publicly on, but one thing I do want to be public is that my close friends call me Bea now. And if any of you want to call me Bea or B, that would make me very happy. <3 But no pressure, I won't be upset if I hear Martin.
GOOGLE DOCS USES AI THAT TRAINS ON ANYTHING YOU WRITE IN IT, EVEN IF ITS A “PRIVATE” DOCUMENT. It’s now possible for users to get Google Docs’ AI to share information that is otherwise not publicly accessible, if it was written in Google Docs at some point. You CANNOT trust it w/ confidential info

Can’t stand the way white scholars talk about Asian people and cultures like they’re ants in an ant-farm.
couldn't decide if I wanted to set this in afternoon or evening, I like them both
If you have a Substack, I will not subscribe to it, I will avoid sharing anything you post there, and I will think less of you

Sometimes you meet someone and realize that you're really meeting a part of yourself that's been itching to be found. Or reckoned with.
I've spent so much of my life sat in a cage locked with a key I hold in my own hands.
Unused / outdated concept art is not the same thing as cut content.
Cara Ellison@caraellison.bsky.social · 2mo agogame devs: what are the myths that a lot of players of games think are true about making games that are completely untrue? If you could snap your fingers and they suddenly all knew the truth about it what would it be?
Most abusers are not abusive all the time. They can be charming and charismatic and can present as devoted, especially when in front of witnesses. Victims often tell ourselves that the caring persona is the *real* person and the abuse is some atypical behavior that will stop if we are loving enough.
Kat Tenbarge@kattenbarge.bsky.social · 2mo agoThere are still tons of people who ask why victims stay in abusive relationships and use that line of thinking to attack and undermine the credibility of victims. The actual mechanism of coercive control is still so misunderstood by the public—a victim staying actually makes perfect sense.

Far too often recently I've seen people insist that the artist's intention is all that matters. "Why are you using that song for this character? The song is about (very specific personal reason for the musical artist), it doesn't apply" But songs, poems, stories, etc do not mean just one thing.
Creators will get called out for not doing "enough" with their channels even if they're spreading awareness for a cause, educating on where to get involved, literally fundraising for charity, meanwhile said callout account does nothing but spread hostility like a gossip rag.

At the end of the day, Elon Musk literally wields X as his own personal propaganda machine. We KNOW he prioritizes specific accounts and artificially inflates their reach for his own political/personal gain. Posting on there does unfortunately help him in that mission
I will not have my literary analysis skills called into question on FFVII ever again.
It's been said by others, but one of the things that I find most tragic about techbros is that they are ruining public perceptions of technology as a whole. Tech can be and has been a liberatory, fun world. It doesn't have to be destructive to the environment or leveraged for fascism. It's sad!
Saw a “leftist” on here say that despite their friends with kids saying they’re happy, their lives have actually been ruined by their kids and so they must be secretly lying about it… Like, you’re not less of a bigot because the group of vulnerable people you hate are children. 😩
Ugh, this is actually sickening. I found out that a website used my voice to create an AI voice soundboard thing where people can generate words using the likeness of my voice. They linked it to my twitch. I found that other people are on here too. I submit a takedown request, but this is so gross
