To clarify: This isn't a cool "superpower." It is a survival mechanism called Hyper-vigilance.
And the worst part? I can't always tell the difference between "intuition" and "anxiety."
I am not Sherlock Holmes. I am just a nervous animal trying not to get eaten, interpreting every slightly shifted eyebrow as a threat.
Capitalism didn’t give us the internet, internet was funded by the taxpayers & developed in the public sector for decades before it was spun off by Big Tech oligarchs to make a fortune on, capitalism gave us paywalls, video ads & pop up screens which make the experience miserable
"Polyworking" is the fancy, sanitized term invented to normalize people being forced to work multiple jobs to afford basic necessities.
Don't glorify the grind.
Dismantle the system that requires it.
We told you AI is a fucking scourge on EVERYTHING.
We are in a class war and the 1% aren't satisfied with having 90%+ of all wealth, they want more
So what are we going to do? It's about time we start organizing to be a thorn in these people's side
It is NOT inevitable
FIGHT!
If you’re upset with the current RAM prices, but not upset with people using generative AI like chatGPT, PLEASE let this be the thing that gets you angry.
GenAI is ruining everything. Stop using it.
Lockdowns didn’t break society, it was that realization that people would fuck over everyone else to avoid the slightest inconvenience, that the health and lives of other people were worth less than trinkets. That they’d cut years from your life just so they could go eat brunch.
hello brands, I hope this helps - if you use generative AI, I will think less of you as a brand and will make a deliberate effort to avoid your products in the future
Anyone who tests AI on their area of expertise rapidly realizes that AI is an idiot.
Unfortunately, it is becoming clear to me that many humans do not have an area of expertise.
Am I going insane? "Uptoown?" Subways shifting into city blocks? Air conditioners stacking themselves on top of eachother? This thing loses cohesion every 4 goddamn seconds. Who looks at this and says "Fuck yeah! AI rocks!"
This is ass. It's ass. Stop deluding yourselves.
Nobody wants this.
Zelda Williams has made a statement asking people to stop sending her AI videos of her father, Robin Williams:
“Stop believing I wanna see it or that I’ll understand, I don’t and I won’t. If you’re just trying to troll me, I’ve seen way worse, i’ll restrict and move on. But please, if you’ve got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It’s dumb, it’s a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it’s NOT what he’d want.
To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to ‘this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that’s enough’, just so other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening.
You’re not making art, you’re making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else’s throat hoping they’ll give you a little thumbs up and like it. Gross.”

Dear Poles, long ago I remember this was spread among Ukrainians. I believe you need it now.
What to do when you hear a “Shaheed”. You may be afraid, but you must act faster than fear can paralyze you.
https://t.co/ePLs6jcFA9 you hear the sound? Act immediately
Do not analyze or guess. If you hear a low, humming sound, act quickly. In 30 seconds it may be above your roof.
2.Stop recording. This is not a movie
No video is worth your life. Hide your phone. Shrapnel does not warn, it kills.
3.Step away from the window
Glass flies like blades. The window is the most dangerous place. Move as far as possible, ideally to the center of the apartment.
4.Find two solid walls between you and the street
Kitchen with windows is not safe. Windowless bathroom is good. Hallway is ideal.
5.Lie on the floor, stay silent
Cover your head with your hands. Shrapnel flies in an arc, so you must stay below its trajectory.
6.Outside? Stay low and behind concrete
Fences and bushes will not protect you. The best is to lie behind a concrete wall or fall into any depression. If nothing is available, just lie down.

Turn off the engine and lights. Leave the car and find shelter, an underground passage, or a low spot. Lie near a parapet, curb, on asphalt near the car, or under the car. Light and movement attract drones.
8.Cover your ears and open your mouth
This protects you from the shock wave. It can save your hearing and lungs. It is a small thing, but it works.

The second strike is often the most dangerous. Silence after the first explosion may be a trap. Endure it and lie still.
An entire generation under the age of 30 is coming to realization that having a family and home will never be within the grasp of reality for them
Society is not ready for the consequences of this. A generation with no stake in the system would rather watch it burn
It is, perhaps, slightly more convenient that most websites are using Persona for age verification, a new surveillance software backed by Peter Thiel. A man who also, conveniently, backs many politicians around the world.
The reason as to why we suffer so much depression, anxiety and other oppressive feelings Is due to the fact that we created a world where everyone Is expected to do way too much in an impossibly short amount of time and the only health considered important is the physical one
Trauma survivors rarely say “I’m struggling.”
They say:
“I’m just tired.”
“I’ve got a lot on.”
“It’s been a weird week.”
They don’t ask for help.
They downplay everything.
Because life taught us that being honest makes people disappear.
