BEHOLD: THREAD OF BATHTUB BIRDS
I had a thread on twitter that I am now going to move here. context: in my neighborhood, one house converted an antique bathtub to a working fountain, added a kiddie pool, put plastic lawn birds in them, and the birds get rotating seasonal outfits
kind of bullshit that I immediately got a migraine but still am not cured
started the recently-approved hives medication and it's new enough that it has to get fedexed to me and the list of side effects is like "this is what we *know* it does but please have your doctor call the manufacturer if anything weird happens because we need more data"

you'd think that with the billions of dollars that pharmaceutical companies spend on R&D they'd be able to make it so that a teeny tiny pill doesn't taste like absolute ass but APPARENTLY NOT

the most significant change in the lives of those I’ve observed habituating themselves to LLM use is that they become worse thinkers and speakers. they cut themselves off from interesting conversations to “quickly check ChatGPT”. they regress. they become addicted. they certainly don’t “save time”
understand, I’m not scared of this stuff, and I’m not ignorant about it. I read the material, I listen to plenty of podcasts featuring people developing and using this tech every day, and I’ve engaged directly with LLM models to study them. they’re just not impressive

I desperately want the AI bubble to burst already for so many reasons and among them is that I’m tired of feeling exasperated over people I otherwise respect and think are generally pretty sharp getting suckered into thinking the hype might be real

just realized this past weekend was the two year anniversary of moving to New Haven! also the four year anniversary of breaking my collarbone and the ten year anniversary of moving to Winnipeg

one of those things was a good idea

I would love to live in a world in which I had the time, money, energy, and patience to be high femme but since that world isn't real I'd describe myself more as a business casual femme and I can be content with that

I truly appreciate Siobhan Thompson in Fantasy High for portraying a REALISTIC relationship between sisters where instead of calling each other "sis" and going to the mall, Adaine calls her sister a cunt while they actively try to physically for real kill each other

I've had "hip to the zeitgeist" in every social media bio for quite some time now and I think I need to admit that it's no longer 100% accurate

out of nowhere I decided to put on the audiobook for Havemercy, which I last read about 15 years ago, and hoooo boy I'm in for a wild ride

ngl I'm still reeling from this week's episode of Gladlands, my emotional reaction to this season was already so tangled and complicated and then Vic came in with THAT

fixing audio ducking is to fanvids what weaving in ends is to knitting

I need everyone to know that on the crochet subreddit the mods made a big post about how they're taking a week off because there was too much fighting/political posts. so there's currently no mods on r/crochet and people are being absolutely insane

I had to stop knitting for like a year because the friction kept triggering hives, but I finally finished the second quadrant of the hue shift afghan!

went to the movies with my cousins, this trailer for Saving Face was one of the previews, got to around the 0:16 mark and froze with popcorn halfway to my face like a goddamn cartoon as it occurred to me that lesbianism was more than an abstract concept I was vaguely aware of youtu.be/78h8WeP3Oas

I gave a Victorian child a modern THC edible and it took him seven months in a sanatorium by the seaside to recover. when he got back he had me try some of his Extra-Gentle Soothing Syrup For Fussy Babies (patent pending) and I died
