(straight from the stickynote..please forgive the run-on sentences, it was a very ‘stream-of-consciousness’ thing) A cartoon musical number where Donald Trump and Eric/Don Jr/etc. are there as kids asking what they should do since they won’t be able to afford some extravagant thing if the bank loan rate is that high, and Donald burst out […]
“When the game is over, the king and the pawn go back in the same box.” – Italian Proverb (via Powerctl on Slashdot)
My grandparents on my mother’s side had a hearing aid business/office when I was little. I remember my parents dropping me off there on occasion to “work”, my grandparents assigning me some duties such as sorting the small glossy brochures for different products. I remember sorting through them as quickly and efficiently as possible, to […]
The optics would be perfect.
Musk has apparently gone full-on troll against Wikipedia. It’s really sad to see somebody who has done so much for scientific progress stoop so low in his public interactions. I’m honestly ashamed I ever looked up to him as an entrepreneur and cheered my son on years back to write a school report on of […]
You’re pathetic But to your credit You’re the main character I don’t get it Sucks up your debt For all it’s worth Dig in your heels Big in the feels You don’t see what’s real You don’t see what’s real Win one over, nothing is colder, but you’ve got a coat So far ahead, but […]
Yeah, it’s scary. Do it anyway.
Circa November, 2018 voice recording regarding the vast gap between human achievement and human ignorance.
“It’s important that we explore space and the universe. We need to explore other planets. Esp. those nearest to us in Andromeda, so we can view them as a threat.” –J0hnny Rayg0n
Thought that this was interesting listening to after 5 years as I’m going through the process of giving my past audio blogs relevant filenames. Like a visit from the past.
Am I gonna trade my time for moneyOr am I gonna change the worldFocus my light to a dollarWatch the edges curl Should I live by the riptideAnd extinguish my flameI could ask you what to doBu I know what you’ll say
I wonder if the big social networks (looking at you Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.) artificially slow their site responses to inflate the “time spent on our platform” KPI.
How hard is an honest apology to some people? …Or is it just not in them?

There’s a lot to be worried about in this late-stage of capitalism and humans.. AI infiltrating art itself, for example. What humans need is a universal agreement that technology != art. We need to separate art and technology. We’ve got to understand again that the value of art is that it is created by humans […]
He’s currently shifting posture to include even more calls for violence and more general focus on weaponry (guns specifically). This guy is desperate. Be aware, to those who easily hear his dog whistles (everybody?).
Don’t you come around here No don’t you come ’round here Don’t you come around here No don’t you… Think you know it all Yeah think you know it Think you know it all Yeah think you know it Take a step back, and see… There’s two sides to every story Come on there’s two […]
When I read the news I always really hope that He’s a dead corpse now
“Begin with criticism, then you go to protest, then you go to impeachment, now you go to indictment, and none of them work. I mean what’s next?“ Uhm, I’m sorry – “none of them work” ? It’s working. You’re just fucking scared because we haven’t given up yet, and things are finally coming to a […]
I feel that it should be a basic human right to not hear your neighbor flush the toilet when you have your windows open.
Here’s a good quote about adults who fail to take responsibility in their lives. Pay attention to the last paragraph – it’s telling. “Some people are good at being responsible adults. They make conscious, informed decisions about their lives and as a result are confident, secure and productive. Some people prefer to abdicate their personal […]
Listening to David Bowie’s “China Girl” this morning reminded me that I wanted to make a post about prejudice. I have a pretty simple explanation as to why prejudice is such a trigger/hot topic these days. It wasn’t such an issue not that long ago, right? People at least *somewhat* freely joked about it to […]
What if the whole AI narrative is just a cover for a psyops campaign to ensure mass acceptance of systems where people voluntarily conduct seemingly “private” or “confidential” conversations with a computer/service, where the data is stored indefinitely to hold in your digital “file” and be used as an ever-growing databank of leverage with you…just […]
I’ve been waiting for this for a long time. Time to usher this new moon in right.
AI isn’t human. It’s software. Art is works of self expression authored by humans. One feels connected to a piece by experiencing it with emotional honesty and vulnerability and genuineness, just as the creators did as they created it. Maybe not the *same* emotions; art is generally interpretative; but in it’s truest form it is […]
Since when did trolls become oblivious to their own trolling?
There is no yin without yang, up without down, left without right or North without South. With this in mind, please know that cultural polarization is a strong weapon that keeps us all fearful and in line.
