tech bro: i have made Artificial General Intelligence

programmer: you fucked up a perfectly good calculator is what you did. look at it. it's got anxiety
I’ve been running around asking tech execs and academics if language was the same as intelligence for over a year now - and, well, it isn’t. @benjaminjriley.bsky.social explains how the bubble is built on ignoring cutting-edge research into the science of thought www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...

In the midst of Christmas shopping. Anyone else feel like “stuff” is just kind of pointless these days? Kind of wish it was more acceptable to do charitable donations.

The day after getting home from Desert Bus, I had six inches of snow dropped on my house. And apparently, this is the winter that my car battery has finally decided that it’s reached the end of its lifespan 🥲

I just sneezed weird and my husband tried to comfort me by saying “Don’t worry, your brain is still in your brain,” and as we approach the last few hours of Bus, that’s actually exactly the reassurance I needed today.

Leaving for Desert Bus tomorrow and my company has the gall not to be closed on Remembrance Day 😤 I just wanna go to Victoriaaaaaa 🌵🚌

Exciting adult thing of the day: just bought my 2026 wall calendar for the kitchen.

… Okay you got me. The exciting part was the colour-coded pens I got to go with it 🤓

(Narrator: it was both. She’s excited about both.)

Why are girls the best, actually?

I very tragically put the wrong shirt in my gym bag this morning, thinking it was my normal black turtleneck. Now I’m spending my work day trying to hide the fact that I’m at the office in a crop top…

I’m at a Flames/Jets game and we keep simultaneously cheering “Go Flames Go” and “Go Jets Go”, so all I hear is “Go James Go”.

This is how I imagine JK Rowling when she posts.

I ate good last night 🧡 I feel very blessed that I can have my family and my husband’s family all in the same room together and it’s considered a good time.

Mentioned this to a coworker and she was like “is that… a good thing?”

Yes, yes it is 🧡

My favourite part of being disabled: violent shooting pain in my bones simply because the heavens are about to open up and unceremoniously dump the first snowfall of the season on us.

When your MIL comes in from Montreal for the holiday, it’s only polite to make sure you have bagels ready 🥯

We’re trying to indoctrinate my mom into the @loadingreadyrun.com ‘verse, and we decided to start her on Road Quest. We’re on Episode 2 and she loves it 🚓🚗🚙

Lifting my own body weight on two exercises now (I am lifting my own weight in plates, not just doing body weight exercises 😅)

I can’t explain how good that feels, especially when I’m easily in the top 30% of people at my gym by weight.

Ultimately, I don’t really care about my weight anymore…

Although I look deeply unimpressed in this photo (it was 5:30 am, I was doing my best impression of being awake), I’ve just completed five weeks at the gym. I barely noticed the time passing. I just feel good.

Also, my physiotherapist has been praising my progress with my leg, so that’s been good🥹

Also just realized I haven’t posted in 2 months. Not much to report, but I did knock something off my bucket list in that time:
July 25, 2025 at 3:03 PM
I’ve been getting up and going to the gym every morning at 5am for the last three weeks and I feel both so much better and so much worse lol

Probably didn’t help that I went to a Stamps game last night and got home after 11…

Turns out when you engage with @desertbus.org in May, you reach peak bus early. I thought it was Sunday already.

I’m watching the Jets Game 7 at the Victoria airport, and the way the whole airport just cheered for that clutch goal 🏒🥅

I love hockey.

If you are the kind of person who likes doing CRAFTS you should keep an eye on @desertbus.org on Monday.

Something interesting might come ALONG.

Finished this absolute ✨beauty✨ today. If you’re looking for a gentle philosophical read, highly recommend the Monk and Robot duology from Becky Chambers. Stunning pair of reads!

Just a reminder to my Canadian friends, today (April 21) is the last day for advanced voting! It’s still been pretty busy, but it’s a lot less busy than election day, so get in early if you can!
