    Every single time you &quot;but it&#39;s useful&quot; consult an LLM, you put money in the hands of people who do not believe that every child deserves food, shelter, and clothing. EVERY SINGLE TIME. So stop comin&#39; at me with the &quot;but it&#39;s useful&quot;.

    Please please please: Don&#39;t forget to laugh. The single thing these fascist cucks can not handle? Laughter. They have a kind of psuedo-laughter, they do, centered around their cruelty. But it isn&#39;t real. They do not have the ability to laugh, only to sometimes imitate it. Laughter, then, is a form of resistance. At yourself, with your friends, and ultimately, against their lies. Don&#39;t forget to laugh, loves.

    Take the pledge, kids: &quot;I don&#39;t use LLMs, and I don&#39;t kiss boys who do.&quot;

    Look, if you&#39;re a kid, and you need some advice about how to evade the digital police, just reach out. I know. I&#39;m elderly. I&#39;m grumpy. I fucking hate your music. Call me. I&#39;mo hook you up.

    Why do you care about the gender or preference or presentation of anyone you do not wish to fuck?

    I hope y&#39;all who&#39;ve been rooting for the AI bubble to crash are prepared to hunker down. This is gonna be grim.

    Working in edtech for the last five years, me and my group worried a lot about students using LLMs to falsely pass the tests designed to to assess their progress. The question I asked, and it was never really answered very well, was this: Given that none of us actually believed test-passing was a very good assessment technique to begin with, what could we come up with that would be a better way to assess progress?

    If your left-leaning candidate lost their primary, that does *not* mean they -- or you -- failed. Parties can do math, and they respond to primary runs. If they move their dominant candidate even one inch to the left, as a result of a close-run primary, we still won. We didn&#39;t get in to this shithole in one election, and we&#39;re not gonna get out of it one election. Please don&#39;t storm off and non-vote in the generals. Celebrate your smaller w, and lay plans to make it bigger.

    Can&#39;t believe I can&#39;t get a high-paying gig looking at murder/spy opsec scripts. &quot;Yeah, no, every machine will have every usb port taped over with marker tape and checked every single day.&quot; &quot;Yeah, no, nobody is allowed to bring a laptop into the building.&quot; &quot;Yeah, no, US Marshal&#39;s don&#39;t transport serial murder suspects in pairs, and they don&#39;t trust text messages altering their planned route.&quot;

    Grim is how they want us. Humor is part of our resistance.

    I appreciated Talarico a lot more before I started seeing the ads where he uses &quot;ask&quot; as a noun.

    Had a tiny win this evening. My beloved came home from a tea, having stuffed herself with finger food, and said, &quot;You&#39;re gonna have to feed yourself tonight.&quot; So I had a peanut butter sandwich and some potato chips and then some peach cobbler (from the tea).

    Codeberg can do any fucking thing they want. Github surely has. Gitlab surely has. If you wanna use LLMs, you have two *massively* large repos to use. Why is this an issue to anyone?

    Reminder: Governing is not actually one of their goals. They don&#39;t care about competence because, tho it takes thousands of talented and skilled people to *make* a cellphone, it only takes an angry 2yo to *destroy* one.

    The idea that an LLM &quot;went rogue&quot; and &quot;escaped&quot; its sandbox is such an extravagantly bald-faced lie one hardly knows what to do with it. That journalists are reporting that complete and utter shite is evidence of the remarkable extent of--and *success* of--the fraud being committed by these people.

    I haven&#39;t see &quot;The Odyssey&quot;, and I won&#39;t, for some years, realistically. But my favorite critique of it has already happened. Some wag said Odysseus spoke with a Boston accent, but everybody knows he was from *Ithaca*, which is in New York.

    I am not an enemy of Mamdani, but I need you to think about how pretty he is, and how much you respond to that.

    When I was on the road, 3 or 4 or 5 weeks on, 1 week off, for so many years, I had &quot;road families&quot;. People who have never lived that life don&#39;t know, but when you stay in a place for a month at a time, a quarter at a time, a year at a time, with just occasional trips home, you make relationships.

    They focus so much on the supply of drugs cuz if they focused on the demand for them, they&#39;d have to take better care of humans, and that would cut in to their profit.

    Look, if you can read this, you need to know: Your boobs are fine. They&#39;re not too big. They&#39;re not too small. They&#39;re not too lopsided. As a cis het man, I can only speak for my side, but I&#39;m pretty sure my lesbian friends would agree, &quot;I never met a titty I didn&#39;t like.&quot; It&#39;s your mind, your smile, your courage, your eyes, your hope. Everything else is just gravy.

    Dear People of Canadia... As an USian, let me just say, as I have said before: Elbows up. I love you, and I know you love me. This has nothing to do with that. Elbows up.

    The midterms are no sure thing. I am going to be asking you to vote for America&#39;s right-wing party, the Democrats, cuz they&#39;re *still* better than the batshit-crazy wing party. I&#39;m not gonna shriek it at you. I would only offer you this tiny tidbit: actual semi-leftish persons won primaries and, in safe places, won generals. That is us winning. That is one inch. There are many more inches needed, and we can and will fight to gain them. But not if we let the batshit-crazies win.

    So tired of &quot;boomer&quot; shit-talk. I have lived my entire adult life in cooperative/communal housing. I was raised by a single mom before your parents were born, on welfare. I have lived on the street. I am a boomer. I *am* wealthy: I live on ~550 acres of rolling wooded foothills with 60 other people, and I own a heritable lease to my house, and I also own my car, a &#39;96 Honda CRV. This is because I have always invested in community. Generation-talk is mostly just shit-talk.
