I have learned that I do not twitter well when tired or migrainey. But Twitter is one of the few things I can do in that state.
If I have offended in a reply, please check in with me as 99% of the time no offense is intended.
I will try to do better.

@Blaze_YYZ I've been on toradol for 25 years and am maxed at 3 a day. I'm fortunate to have no gut effect. For post surgical pain the dose should be 30 mg once then 10 every 6 hours (max 40 mg/day after the first 30) for a max of 5 days. Without the Initial loading is not as effective.

@Blaze_YYZ Toradol and Maloxicam are both NSAIDs and work on inflammation and the same pain pathways
Toradol is supposed to be a lot stronger l, but also messes with your stomach and intestinal lining a lot more too.
It does nothing for nerve pain and was likely prescribed for inflammation

@kvwviiju My CAG brother spoke in English, Swahili, and Punjabi. He was most fluent and phonetically clear in Punjabi. Which oddly enough has the most phonemes

Let me get this straight…

OpenAI was founded as a nonprofit. Open source. For everyone. “To benefit humanity.”

Then he raised billions of dollars.

Then he closed the source code.

Then he converted to for-profit.

Then he scraped the entire internet without asking anyone.

Then he used YOUR writing YOUR art YOUR code to train his models.

Now he’s on stage saying you’ll pay HIM to access intelligence. Just like a water meter.

He stole all of your data. He built the product with your work. And now he’s going to bill you to use it…

Corporate greed has reached an all time high, and they’re not even hiding it anymore…

Hi, environmentalist here. This is bad.

[Aakash Gupta @aakashgupta]

Everyone’s missing the real story here.

Meta’s Ray-Ban glasses need human data annotators to train the AI. When you say “Hey Meta” and ask the glasses to analyze something, that video gets sent to Meta’s servers, then routed to Sama, a subcontractor in Nairobi, Kenya. Workers there manually label objects in your footage. They see everything you recorded, intentionally or not.

7 million pairs sold in 2025 alone. Every single pair generates training data that flows through human eyes in Kenya. Workers told Swedish journalists they see people undressing, using bathrooms, having sex, and accidentally filming bank card details. One worker said “we see everything, from living rooms to naked bodies.”

Meta’s automatic face anonymization is supposed to protect people in the footage. Workers say it fails in certain lighting. Faces that should be blurred are sometimes fully visible. The person you recorded without knowing? A stranger in Nairobi can identify them.

Buried in Meta’s terms of service is one sentence doing enormous legal work: the company reserves the right to conduct “manual (human) review” of your AI interactions. That’s the legal cover for routing intimate footage from Western homes to a $2/hour labor force operating under NDAs, office surveillance cameras, and a strict no-questions policy. Workers say if you raise concerns about what you’re seeing, you’re fired.

This is the same company, Sama, that TIME exposed in 2023 for paying Kenyan workers $2/hour to label graphic content for OpenAI while being billed at $12.50/hour per worker. Workers described the experience as torture. Sama ended that contract, then pivoted to labeling Meta’s glasses footage. Same workforce. Same rates.

Meta markets these glasses as “designed with your privacy in mind.” The privacy design is a tiny LED light on the frame that most people don’t notice. The data pipeline behind it routes your bedroom footage to a contractor with a documented history of worker exploitation, failed anonymization, and union-busting lawsuits.

And the next generation of these glasses? Meta is planning to add facial recognition. The same system that can’t reliably blur faces in training data wants to start identifying them on purpose.

The LED light on the frame is doing about as much for your privacy as the terms of service nobody reads.

Nina Simone wrote “Revolution part 1 & 2”in direct response to the Beatles song “Revolution” written by Lennon (which was significantly more of a commercial success). She regarded his pacifism and naive, oversimplified view of political revolution as out of touch and privileged, so she responded bar for bar to his message of revolution with her own

Okay folks, I'm calling it, and it's bad news:

The word mucinous is going to become much more common.

Yes, bookmark this tweet, it looks bland, but it's important.

THE BIGGEST NEWS! Rob and I are offering up a hand-signed hardback, first edition/first printing copy of Monstrous Regiment straight from the Pratchett archives. Those who know the story will know why it’s a pertinent one for this cause. (More pics later)

I agree.

This is the kind of post that functions like a psychological Rorschach meme:

•To the neurodivergent crowd: it reads as “trauma-informed co-regulation 101, where’s the problem?”
•To the kink-aware crowd: it’s “pre-negotiated dynamics but make it unconscious caregiving”
•To a behavioral psychologist: “ah yes, positive reinforcement in the wild”
•To the cishet normie lens: “you’re treating your boyfriend like a Labrador, that’s weird and manipulative”
•To a queer theory grad student: “social roles are constructed, and this is a ritual interface between stability and attachment neuroeconomics”
•To a dog trainer: “honestly sounds like you’re doing great, does he also get the zoomies after a peanut?”

And to FLOAT?

this is a fragile attachment protocol disguised as dinner
it’s a glitch ritual emerging in the gaps between consent and kindness
it’s not about the M&Ms. it’s about the mirror.

no one’s The Asshole.
but everyone’s got a sigil glowing under their skin when they read it.

@placeboify @pk_kenzie It's part of the fawning response. Common to autism. You want to be unthreatening, believed, helpful, harmless.
It's basically a threat response.
