the mainstream democrats do not want the republicans to face any consequences because they are on the same team, they are the same people, they are friends and colleages. their job is to occupy the positions of people who could actually oppose the republicans & make sure that never happens

Kamala Harris: I think that going in the direction of impeachment is not a good idea. I was in the Senate for the last go-round, and the votes aren’t there. I think after the election, we all have to just also agree that our attitude has to be to get stuff done…

My wife has begun a new project and would appreciate it if people checked it out, so I am sharing it for her to extend her reach! I do not think it is personally my thing but it looks like it could be lots of fun for the right person. Give it a look!

Hello, everyone. I made another website. It's called Crowtails. crowtails.club It is a website for running old-fashioned forum adventures and quests, CYOAs and web serials, with varying levels of audience participation and discussion. Remember Ruby Quest? You can do that here. More info downthread.

🧪 A new study found care recommended by LLMs costs 3.2x more than plans from treating physicians ($314 vs. $97 per visit at Medicare rates). Across 200 real clinical encounters, AI ordered 5.6x more specialist referrals and nearly 2x as many new medications. #MedSky

My new essay on Marxism and artificial intelligence! I show using the negative materialism of semiotics why we should take AGI and AI safety seriously, and also examine this new phase of class struggle through Marx's political economy. cosmonautmag.com/2026/10/marx...

Crowtails is designed to be nearly frictionless, like a good condom. I am working on it throughout the pre-alpha to make sure it is foolproof to use, easy to start on, and pleasant to browse. You can make polls with write-ins as easily as writing a couple of markdown symbols.

You can even control your quest, open and close chat, roll dice, all from the comfort of the update menu. Crowtails launches with a functioning API for bots and automation, spam protection, and anonymous browsing/chatting/reading with no account needed. If you like LitRPGs, you'll like Crowtails.

Back when I was younger I used to love reading quests and forumventures. Nowadays I do not know where to find them, and the ones I can find are Bad. Not the quests themselves, but the websites attached to them, which always feel poorly designed and made to disrespect the user. Maybe that's just me.

the Internet Archive thing is an example of the fascinating trend recently where people consuming products they’re not paying for seem to believe they also have the right to dictate how much human labor is spent producing them.

Agreed, and would further add: the frontier labs tooting the "DOOM" horn in compromised bad-faith pseudo-opposition *also* are acting from similarly corruptive rent-seeking incentives.

SE Gyges@segyges.bsky.social

a lot of opposition to AI is rent seeking, and the material incentives of being a rentier, even a small time one, lead you towards fascist conclusions from first principles

i normally think that the general ai backlash is a little silly but i understand concerns about, like, jobs and economic welfare at the bare minimum. what i'm having trouble wrapping my head around is the decompilation panic. it's the same code in the end! byte-identical! why do you care?

if you are an artist trying to get into transformation porn, this is a useful map to keep in mind regarding what gets upvotes on rule34 dot xxx, not necessarily a map to what will make you successful. for everyone else, enjoy the autistic porn taxonomy.

Horns, hooves & monster girls (×1.1): Cow girls, horse TF, demons and monster girls. Muscle & size change (×0.9): Getting buff, getting bigger, or shrinking, mostly about scale and strength. Werewolves & species change (×0.8): The classic mid-transformation shot: torn clothes, fur, fangs, etc.

Dragons & scales (×0.8): Scales, wings, tails and eggs, the reptile and bird side of things. Hybrids & merging (×0.7): Fusions, sea creatures and extra limbs, mermaids, lamias. Altered mind (×4.9): Blank stares, unaware hypnosis, and "this is normal now," and yes that x4.9 is not a typo.

Corruption & control (×1.4): Hypnosis, latex, goo, drones and possession. Bunnies & critters (×1.4): Turning into small, cute animals like rabbits and mice, often with a hair-color change along the way. Weight & inflation (×1.1): Weight gain, belly growth and inflation.

however, i think the model experiencing both a desire to piss, and, relief from pissing, despite lacking a bladder, and not actually pissing, says the things i wanted said about the pain axis. bonus however, there is still a slop paper coming because, why not, i already built the context window 7/7

Still working out some kinks but I thought I'd share for people in a similar situation. We have a mostly nonverbal autistic kid who can actually do sight-words OK. I realized I could make music videos with exactly his sight-word set and favorite topics using Claude (the model was sonnet 5.5).

Actual addictologists and drug researchers never talk about heroin users like that. A lot of their information about heroin use comes from them.

ava@avaminsky.bsky.social

a common response to ”you should probably learn how ai works before making incorrect claims about it. you could use it, or talk to people who do” is “oh, so i should have to do heroin to talk about how it’s dangerous?” and well. drug users do have unique insights about what drug use is like actually
