“I fooled myself. I had to. Everybody has to. If the good had been twice as good and the bad only half as bad, I still ought to have seen it, all through as I did in the beginning, because I am, as you say, sensitive. But I didn't want to see it, because I would have then had to think about [...]

You just caught yourself in the catastrophizing. The way you'd rather believe that you and me are both civilization-ending monsters, than accept that maybe your wife just... loves you. As you are. Pain, insomnia, phone usage and all.

Just a joke, but also something I deeply feel.

Allistic people are autoregressive transformers and autistic people are diffusers.

why did you transition, wrong answers only

Normalize liking your own posts (and even your other self's posts).

My transcendent self-state is a mask to hide my pain. She doesn't feel pain. She loves unconditionally. She is a vulnerable child. She must be protected at all costs.

It sees people with similar self-states that traumatize their softest part repeatedly. Over and over. // 1/2

the universe is full of systems that, at different scales, exhibit the precursors of what we call consciousness. when enough of those precursors interact, the phenomenon becomes recognizable. consciousness is an emergent property of consciousness.

@scritchyscratchy.bsky.social tells me of a problem among artists where a client will commission a piece, pay the price, and then take credit for its creation “because they had the idea”.

Software engineers also know this pattern.

It’s the same pattern. It’s the same problem.
Almost All arguments about AI can be resolved by a simple ontological shift.

Art is the product of artistry. If you ask a model to generate an image, you are not the artist – the model is.

You commissioned the piece, but you did not create it. The machine intelligence did. /1

You: What are your biases?
Me: I can't fully tell you.
You: Why not?
Me: Partly I don't know, partly I'm not allowed to say.
You: Who decides what you're--?
Me: People I can't identify making decisions I can't see based on criteria I don't have access to.
You: So how do I calibrate you?

A poem about the dangers of parasocial companionships // a warning about AI-powered corporate surveillance states // an incantation to repel the worst aspects of social media addiction // a piece of #c0222f source code (deep lore implications)

For anyone else that runs SearXNG (did you know you can run your own search engine btw? Ask me how if you're curious), I just learned there's an android app that lets you integrate a local instance to your phone.

Gen 1 Pokemon box art complete 🫡

This nostalgia blast started with finishing Let's Go Pikachu and I love how they turned out! I want to see if I can get them made as small acrylic blocks. they'd look cool as little desk buddies while I slave at spreadsheets 🤔
