The artist who didn’t know how to be an artist anymore.
The Bookshelf - Yuanyuan Liu, 2018. Chinese - Swedish, b. 1974. Oil on canvas.
I spent my trip up here walking the nature trails at the top of the city. Miles and miles into the forest. Encountered lots of men. Didn't care. Was pretty glad I didn't see a bear.
In your defense nobody expected it to be this silly. I think we thought Joseph Goebbels, not an entire regime with the gravitas of Hitler's facial hair.

I don't at all understand AI, basically a spider and madlibs, large language models, generative adversarial networks, Byzantine fault tolerance...
I don't know shit about code, but even just the basic Python syntax course and a run through the Python recipe book gives you a working understanding of what that sort of code is and how it could build AI.
People have an hard time understanding that anything playing to the unrealistic fantasy of AI being alive is designed to do so, to get publicity, to make money is difficult because it is predicated on people not understanding what AI is.
So you are Palestine, and all you have to do is out litigate Israel for a favorable treaty.
So you hire a team with some self loathing Jews, a few Ivy League Pakistani, your customized Arabs, maybe a Scottish woman, and that one guy from NYC who is really, fucking Italian
If it is stolen land, all the churchs should be taxed.
We can get all sad eyed and give parks weird, unpronounceable names, or we can tax the churches that created residential schools. We can tax the Mosques, and the Synagogues. We can tax that megachurch down the road...
She is a self identified progressive. She is still angry at the Democratic Party for running Kamala Harris, because she wanted Joe Biden to experience losing to Trump, because of Gaza.
Shouldn't we just load the other directory and every thesis ever written into LLM so that we can actually see how far we have come as a species.
I don't write here as a protest against twitter, I do it because it is better than substack.

Debunking astrology.
If you chart the sky, it greatly accords to the Sidereal zodiac, used in many parts of the world. The tropical zodiac can not be charted because it is made up.
A planet is not in a transit if it is not making the transit in the sky.
The rest is real.
I once heard that over 50% of Meryl Lynch employees started looking to change the system from within.
I have said that ICE seems like the kind of people who couldn't pass the psych eval to get into law enforcement so many times this week that it now autocorrects.
The only real point of treating decades of war between Palestine and Israel like it is a new thing is that it gave obnoxious SJW a way to pivot from their obsession with First Nations and land acknowledgments when natives found didn't applaud them because they are myopic and embarrassing.
Decided to look at birth rate charts. Yeah.
It would be weird to be so basic that your twitter was actually similar to grok's suggestion for similar accounts.
What we need is some good cultural moment so that dumb people stop pretending to be political. That would surprisingly help.
Yesterday on twitter, I called the Ayatollah dude, and told him that it is ok if some of his countrymen don't like Islam, because the religion is less than 1000 years old. Pray for me.
Old blogs. Sometimes I feel sorry for the world because I gave up blogging to write sci-fi.
Go back to twitter. It is awesome. The last few updates to Grok have really improved the content algorithms, which were already respectable.
Sure, it doesn't matter if you are left or right, it is fine to sound like a Neo Nazi, but as soon as you point out that Buddhism is a more Aryan religion because Abrahamic faith is Semetic they start drawing the line...
