For #Caturday: this is my best friend's cat. As a joke, I sent a shoe cover you are supposed to wear around the house to dust the floors. Her cat insists on wearing it on her head and will cry for her "wig" to be put on, if she sees it.

Twitter is TESCREAL social media (for obvious reasons), which helps me see their talking points

1. Anyone pushing "stochastic parrots framing" shouldn't be taken seriously.

2. People "denying" the machine god narrative, like me, are akin to anti-vaxxers & climate deniers.

These are things they're saying to the left politicians they've captured, like Bernie Sanders who's being advised on "AI" by eugenicist doomsday cult leaders.

I wish we really were in a simulation like this people say 🙄

Tao, you fucking idiot, you championed this and now because you fucking FINALLY realise how dogshit this is, only NOW you try to stop it?

Literally wow

AND NORMIE LIBS ARE DOING NOTHING TO STOP IT. That's what's blowing my mind. The lies that are echoing in France are *identical* to the lies that gave Britain a decade of misery. All that's missing is a red bus with lies on! And all the while, as billionaire money floods the zone to ward off the end of upward wealth redistribution, "consultants" to the in-power normies are whispering that it's going to be "fine". It's not! Look at the US! It's not fine!

I can't keep the phrase "Putin expects a Europe of Trumps this time next year" out of my head. Can't remember who said it, but when we peel it all back and the history is written, I will not be surprised if a decent chunk of the overall arc has been bent by the Kremlin's petro/klepto/mafioso state.

Something a bit different today: I've written a book! It's nothing to do with the Fediverse, but the money from it keeps my Fedi accounts and sites going.

It's about real life mysteries (so no UFOs, no ghosts, no conspiracies etc). The book is DRM-free, price is "Pay what you want, min. 1 euro":

➡️ https://payhip.com/b/EhfU2

You don't need an account to buy!

The book is 100% human-made, no AI of any kind.

(If you need a free open eBook reader app try Readest. The book also works with eReaders.)

It infuriates me that from now until the end of fucking time, when an artist turns in a piece of amazing artwork for a book cover, some flatulating midwit will look at it and say "oh, that's just AI."

Between this, Burnham's failure to back funding caps, Musk's interventions, and the terrible outlook for France and Germany right now, I don't think anything can shake normie libs out of the notion that money in politics is fine-ish (maybe? they're not sure).

If this is in the description of your pull request, it’s unlikely to get any time spent on it.
