examining the mind control fetish of a woman whose brain uses her free will to spend hours a day fretting and anxious about people who theoretically hate her somewhere, yeah wonder why that lady might like the idea of someone else in charge of her brain huh

translation is literally NOT generative AI. models that do translation are a legitimate use of the technology- and they can run on a smartphone! a generative *LARGE* LM is literally a token predictor being fed pseudorandom noise and its own farts and needs a damn data center because it SUCKS at it

being anti AI is a luxury belief only available to first world people, especially Americans imagine how important machine translation is for people whose first languages aren't that common

like. translation models take text, break it into tokens that represent words and such, and then reverse that process to a different language, ideally preserving the original human meaning encoded in that abstract sequence! an LLM is spitting out meaningless noise. no human intent to translate.

anyway, lest I get lost in the weeds of ripping apart this false equivalence, let's not let sneaking in the premise "all people should be forced to live and engage in the language of power and not thier own and enabling that is a true moral good" go unremarked on or unchallenged

this shit pisses me off because genuinely yes, token based machine translation is the only juice that this technology produces that I think should be weighed against the environmental impact squeeze. but it has like, none. and it was perfected years ago before the LLM slopification made it WORSE!

As a new yorker: BASED AS FUCK

New: Mayor Zohran Mamdani and a group of his friends have been secretly using the NYPD Police Academy’s gymnasium in Queens to play pickup basketball — scrambling some operations at the facility. w/ @grahamrayman.bsky.social & Joe Anuta www.politico.com/news/2026/10...

looking up kink events in NYC and I can think of literally nothing that makes me less likely to trust that the people involved are detail and human oriented enough to manage the complexities of consent than the entire event page being AI generated. It sucks cuz id otherwise want to go!

AI companies could really fix the unfavorable narrative about them in the public eye by turning thier CEOs over for all the federal crimes they directed thier robots to commit, then going to the pits of the underworld and staying there forever tbh

Politics hits different when you're an "issue" instead of a citizen

no one cares about trans women in women’s sports and you are, most generously, the worlds biggest idiot if you take it at face value as an earnest concern had by real voters

I've been having a lot of fun with traditional media lately, did this pencil illustration for an affini/affini romance I've been working on with one of my partners

"I was told," said the princess, "that the point of fairy tales is not to tell children dragons exist, but that they can be killed." "Oh, absolutely!" said the dragon. "You agree?" "These rich, selfish, powerful, cruel beings that need killing, did you think they're literally dragons, princess?"

It is genuinely a cruel joke of psychology that negative feedback is weighted so much higher than positive, such that people receiving compliments often feels dangerous and fake and being the target of cruelty feels real and authentic

I think, ultimately, the big divide in SFFH spaces is between people who are fandom-oriented, and those who are (for a lack of better, less sensational term) art-oriented, and those two groups just have very different ideas about what art is suppose to be about, which creates friction.

Me improv singing: 🎶 a rectangle is a shape with foooouuur sides, and it is defined, as a pair of pairs of parallel lines, at nintey degrees on a euclidean plane of spacetime,🎶 My girlfriend desperately trying to get off on her locktober break day I gave her: please stop singing the rectangle song

getting one of those legendary 7+ paragraph ao3 comments where they do a proper literary analysis of your story and what theyve enjoyed is actually better than sex, i cherish them every time i get one

Not showering, wearing sweaty clothes and even drinking urine before going on dates. 'Pheromone-maxxing' is the latest trend on social media, but what does the science say?
