In an AI community call at work, the CTO asked how everyone was feeling, and most people said they were overwhelmed. I was like, "3 world changing technologies came out during my formative years: PCs, the internet, and cell phones. My brain developed around this kind of change and is wired for it."

Me to myself every time I have to talk to anyone:
"Don't be weird! Don't be weird!"
Me out loud:
Gow's it hoing?
The entire millennial identity is being prepared and groomed for a version of the world that stopped existing by the time we reached it
we slammed into a horizon painted on a brick wall like fucking looney tunes
Everyone skips past the 02 financial crisis because 09 was so bad.
But depending on how you parse millenial...it's been bad for awhile but also the worst bit is they grew up during a period where things were getting better and then got the rug pulled out from under them.
The woman noticed me greeting her cat back that time, and paused her conversation to tell me that her cat liked taking walks with her! πΈ
During a walk on Sunday, a woman walking a dog passed me. A one-eyed cat was following her. The woman was on the phone, but the cat greeted me! I again encountered them, and, again, the woman was on the phone, but the cat greeted me! π»
I know the feeling, Josie! πΈ

That's beautiful!
A new friend gave me a tour of a market with a lot of vendors, specifically sharing with me everything that she really likes! It was so heartwarming that she took the time and wanted to share these things with me.
Iβve been thinking a lot about how often weβre taught to want things instead of understanding ourselves.
Not knowing what you want can be deeply honest β and deeply useful. π«

If you want to understand where a very large swathe of "AI" is, today, then you very seriously need to engage w/ religious studies & mythology β & understand I don't mean "mythology" in the pejorative sense of "falseness" or "fantasy;" I mean "animating beliefs," or "fundamental guiding narrative."

I feel like these media outlets trying to raise her up while blatantly ignoring things she says have some kind of collective Stockholm Syndrome or something.
Good job! I'm a more casual news reader, and even I know that she's doing all of this because she's aligning with a group that is even more extremely racist and xenophobic.
"Harbinger of Ominous Positivity" would be a great horror comedy movie about Midwestern Manners! πΉ
A friend was gifted a tiny remote controlled excavator at a Christmas Eve potluck, and we all spent the next two hours playing with it!
A day late, but, I love when it snows on the weekend, because I can sit in my attic window and watch the snowflakes dance in the breeze and cover the trees, roofs, and chimney pots! βοΈ
Tell me that lie of the land sleeping all winter and I'll laugh in your face. Tell you of all the trees I've talked to this morning before the frost retreated from sun. Relay conversations with cold spirits, my communion with stretching shadows. βΒ #EmilyCBanting #1982 #WitchSky
Magick isnβt always loud, dramatic, or theatrical. Sometimes it's the quiet glow that appears the moment you decide to show up for yourself. π π

y'know, if tech companies weren't so fired up to call every single thing "AI" it would be a lot easier to distinguish "ML spam filter that is well-sandboxed and tuned on your emails" from "giant context and IP-eroding foundation model that makes people paranoid and unhappy"
You can shop for Christmas gifts, enjoy a live performance, sample holiday beer and even take a spin on Carol Annβs Carousel.
None of that is happening. They're just Nazis who are mad Trump spent the last year on tariffs and defense against Epstein instead of isolationism and concentration camps.
They don't care that he's a pedophile. They care that he's an unsuccessful dictator.

BREAKING: Democrat Aftab Pureval wins Cincinnati mayoral election over Cory Bowman, half-brother of Vice President JD Vance.
Follow AP for live updates.
The man is a charlatan and a grifter. He didn't know when local elections were held until he ran for mayor and he claims to be a faith healer. His brother didn't endorse him today, and didn't donate to his campaign. And he lost so hard that they called it just based on early voting! πΉ
