I'm genuinely baffled by pleasantries at doctor's offices Receptionists: "Hi, how are you today?!" Me: "Uh, I'm here?" "I'm at a hospital?!" "I just drove in the bright Texas heat" "My head hurts, please don't waste our time" "I don't have the bandwidth to #Mask for you, please don't make me"

For a balanced, cohesive tribe, there were those blindly trusted leadership's authority, and then others who questioned the system so that things don't become stagnant and corrosive Both were necessary to thrive Today we've been divided down this line and told the other is the cause of our pain

For hundreds of thousands of years, losing your tribe could have felt like a death sentence Now, we no longer have a cohesive tribe, but what little we do have is frequently shattered We spend half a decade cooped up with the same handful of people

The Mazey Day episode of Black Mirror was the last actual "TV" I watched for over 100 days in 2023 Seeing light hurts and that episode ends with a prolonged spree of flash photography Few people experience the world as I do, let alone understand something so trivial wrecking a quarter of your year

Is there a difference between AI tech bro CEOs and used car salesmen?

Ever wake up so out of it that you pour protein powder into your morning lukewarm electrolyte powder (skipped) that's meant to go in your coffee? Then think you'll just add instant coffee, but over do it and now it's battery acid? 'n try to fix it with too much sugar and eventually matcha powder?

I had a good friend I once called a brother He always had wild ideas and views of the world Few years ago, he sounded like he was having a manic break and I suggested he get help I get what he was saying now, but I drove him away, and I've lost the only person in my life who could see what I see

In AI, there's a this trick called Context Window Overflow Basically, it is drowning the LLM in new information to the point where it looses sight of it's rules and safeguards A lot like how obsessed we've become with the last few thousand years and forget the environment we evolved to thrive in

Anyone got the current spread on kalshi for when disparate tomes of Twilight × My Little Pony fan fiction become the basis for a recognized religion in the US of America?

Ryu was laying at the foot of the bed, where Kirby likes to be Kirby scratches at the edge and then stares hard at me This is often his tactic to ask to go outside I stand up and Kirby bolts for the back door, excited to go out, Ryu runs off too Just for Kirby to run back and reclaim his spot😂

It really does Depend(s®), Elena Another Telegram scammer I had fun with #ScamBaiting

Back when we were kids, the first clear disagreement I had with my best friend was how we handle towels after showering He thought it was gross that I reused my towels and at the time I couldn't figure out why While after, I realized he just throws his in the corner instead of hanging it to dry

We're most familiar with the weaponization of nuance; cherry picking details to fortify lies But there's an insidious version we do to ourselves I've seen too many communities where members who fundamentally agree, turn the discussions into semantic squabbles and intellectual pissing matches

Midway through my career at Verizon, they started a project called The Wizard Basically what everyone thinks of as "working off a script" today After hiring hundreds of technical, pattern minded individuals to do a job we were good at, they forced us all to use the Wizard

Had a couple friends at the Catholic high school I went to who invited me to a Lock-In Having no idea it was some pentecostal thing, I went along They formed a weird line with the preacher or whatever rocking people with their eyes closed, causing them fall over or faint

I had a dear friend pass away a year and a half ago He had kidney surgeries while full-time where he worked Earlier the year he died he had another 2 So somehow, instead of going on intermittent FMLA, he was dropped to part-time He struggled to do what was required of him, and lost this job

Is reacting to the news as exhausting as watching everyone react to the news? We evolved to identify threats, deal with threats, then resume our normal lives Our nervous systems don't know how to cope with loops that don't close Cortisol evolved for 80 second sprints, not 24 hour news cycles

For the longest time I've listened to shows while I fall asleep Top choice for this was the anime Death Note But come the end of 2024, my suspension of disbelief of there being a supremely brilliant mind existing out there that can defeat hidden criminals, let alone openly blatant ones, ceased

My brain stores Nintendo abandoning Mario throwing up celebratory Peace Sign/V for Victory ✌️ in the same directory as Alphabet dropping Goggle's "Don't Be Evil" from their business Code of Conduct

What would it be like if instead of having different words for showers, rain, puddles, pools, ponds, lakes, reservoirs, rivers, seas, oceans, etc. we just called them all the "H₂O Spectrum"? #ASD #Autism #AutismSpectrum #UniqueMinds #MappingUniqueMinds #WeDeserveBetter #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs

I've made the difficult decision to begin ♥️ing my own content I know this will be quite an adjustment for the millions whom have yet to follow me But I know, in time, everyone will understand these bold, self serving acts, will have been necessary and righteous!

What if seasonal depression is our ancient wiring just naturally trying to conserve energy (a human form of hibernation) through the winter?

What if the way we shower our pets with affection is the closest we are comfortable allowing ourselves to how we used to express love for all the humans in our lives?

Since all the major models have had big updates, I thought I'd give this another spin Deepseek- 2 tries though misses "elsewhre" Claude- Failed after 3 tries Gemini- Failed after 3 tries ChatGPT- 2 tries and also overlooked "elsewhre" 😅 Can't exactly blame them since most humans would miss care

Relationships are more complex than they meme

I've been offered Amazon promotional credits for years I rarely, if ever, buy anything that fits the narrow scope they're applicable for Each time they try to give me more, they can never tell me how much I've accumulated total They say credits don't expire, so I should have a ton saved, right?

Know what it's like to have someone who's supposed to be looking out for what is best for you to end in betrayal? To have someone like a high school guidance counselor size you up, determine you don't have a future in higher education, and throw you down a useless vocational track? #RedOakHS #ASD

Is cheating a natural response to unfair and unaccomodating systems? Games, education, relationships, finances, piracy, algorithms... If cheating benefits the disenfranchised, at best, is frowned upon, at worst, can cost someone their livelihood For powerful elites, it just makes practical sense

While working for Disney World on their College Program I met a little gay guy who really seemed to wish I were gay too Shortly after we met, I wound up taking him to the ER for horrible razor burn hives I've wondered if he shaved thinking that's what would finally attract me to him?
