I am so triggered by RJK Jr's comment about ICU's being empty during #COVID. I re-read what I wrote after one of the surges. How do others forget. The trauma was--and is--real.

I'm An ICU Doctor. I’m Haunted By What I’ve Seen During The Recent COVID-19 Surge.

“I can’t stop thinking about the 40-something man who told me, ‘I can’t die like this. I just got engaged and have a 6-month-old baby.’ I encouraged him to be positive, but that didn’t stop him from d...

I'm just gonna say: it somewhat baffles me that people who are understandably skeptical of opaque LLMs as legitimate sources of information will suddenly go full on "the computer KNOWS" when they are using opaque tools to "detect" AI. The computer does not know.

❤️ Gillian Green, publisher at Tor Bramble, told The Bookseller: “HM Wolfe has confirmed that Daggermouth was written entirely without AI. We stand behind our author, and we do not recognise third-party AI detection tools as a fair or reliable measure of authenticity when used on their own.”

"Imagine if AI was banned tomorrow—" DON'T THREATEN ME WITH A GOOD TIME.

Daaaamn. “AI is the asbestos we're shovelling into the walls of our technological society. Our descendants will spend generations digging it out again, and the longer the bubble goes on without popping, the longer it will take to repair the damage." www.thenerve.news/p/cory-docto...

Cory Doctorow: The people who tell you ‘AI is changing everything’ are lying

It has become impossible to tell managers mesmerised by artificial intelligence that the tools are not, in fact, helpful. So employees just play along with the fiction to keep their jobs, writes our t...

“I asked ChatGPT, I asked Grok” Yeah well I asked a Halo 3 lobby and they all said you’re a dumb bitch

I somehow borked my shoulder. No idea how, can’t lift my arm more than like 30 degrees, this is stupid

And it’s so weird for me when people say “I use ai only to conceptualise and make references, but I make the art myself” bro, the thinking process IS the 70% of making the art. All rest is just a technique.

i don't want to "grow my account" or "strengthen my personal brand", i want to frolic unburdened through verdant fields. and shitpost

I'm not going to be relitigating COVID lockdowns or mask mandates. Both were necessary measures that saved lives. If you cannot accept the curtailing of even the minor of freedoms in the name of public safety, you have demonstrated that you do not give a solitary fuck about the rest of us.

I remember calling my mom sobbing because people who knew my health situation and I thought loved me were saying that the elderly and disabled dying was a small price to pay so they could go back to “normal” as thousands were dying so frankly covid denialism pisses me off to no end

Sailor moon hitting her knee so badly her pain is depicted as her as a skeleton with hair bones is a perfect visual gag.

I’m astonished by the ability of my fellow humans to forget the events we all just lived through. Folks remember the masks and the remote school. The million US dead are rarely mentioned. Folks, we lived through a plague.

just had something happen to me in the wild I've managed to somehow avoid all these years. i was at the grocery store in my mask (as i have auto immune disorders that don't need to be gone into but i'm easily stricken by every illness, not just covid) and a guy yelled "fuckin covid cultists!" ...

It’s so funny when people are like “sure you’re an abolitionist now but wait until you’re the victim of a property crime.” Buddy, the most useful thing the police have ever done for property crime is put the form you need to submit to your insurance online.

It’s breakfast for dinner night and I cannot be more pumped

My cousin and her children are coming to town later this month and we’re going to take them to the Biodome so I think I’ll make some capybara nails for the occasion

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

Isekai as a genre is exploding in popularity because it appeals to a universal desire to get hit by a truck rather than live in the 21st century.

I’m alone in my office today as my office mate is on vacation, so I’m playing music aloud instead of on my headphones, and hell this is a nice way to work

Not likely

Clothed Wonho is a recession indicator

While they say the creamer remains unchanged, they changed the packaging from a milk carton to a plastic bottle on my fav soy creamer and now it tastes bad and that’s bumming me out

Been practicing doing GelX on myself rather than press ons and let’s just say my non dominant hand looking beautiful, perfection. The dominant hand is a “let’s look at this from far away” project for now lol
