Shenwei interviewed me last week for Taiwanese American Heritage Week! This is the first time someone has asked me about what went into creating the Cylian language on the page, a process which I was all too happy to nerd out about.

Second post for the Anti-Trans Tipping Point is live now! Journey with me as we explore how completely fucked we are on the policy front, featuring a whole slurry of numbers. I put a lot of charts in to make it easier to understand, I promise!

It's Taiwanese American Heritage Week, which means my Taiwanese author interview series is back! I'll be threading the interview posts below as the week goes on.

Hey guys- White nationalists have helped a white woman in Minnesota raise $300k after she was filmed calling a five-year-old Black child the n-word.

The local NAACP chapter is fundraising for the boy and his family to get legal help. The least we could do is out-fundraise the nazis.

Say it after me: Chat GPT is not a search engine. It does not scan the web for information, it just generates statistically likely sentences. You cannot use it a search engine, or as a substitute for searching.

Now. Please never use an LLM for information searches ever again.

“average person has 3 friends" factoid actualy just statistical error. average person has many friends. Mark Zuckerberg who lives in cave & has negative 100000 friends is an outlier adn should not have been counted

Sex is just projection of gender onto the body

The fact that you can't soft block ppl/remove a follower on this app makes me not want to use it lol. That makes it even less user friendly that Twitter in one major say.
