Something to make us all happy
Do anything take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar

In his new book, A World Appears, Michael Pollan argues that artificial intelligence can do many thingsβit just canβt be a person.
I think we need a food-based quack Miranda warning for snack products that claim to be "healthier" because they fit in within some scam diet. like they've the same nutritional info as the freaking generic brand smfh
If Browt becomes pretty and like Stella from the Hazbossverse in their final evolution i will cheer and say "you're doing amazing sweetie"
I don't FUCKING want to look like the haters.
If I did, I'd bleach my hair and trade my glasses for blue contacts and start wearing modest fashion.
I want to look like ME. A version of me who will spark joy.
Got that?
So yesterday was the 15th anniversary of Happy Appy, a creepy pasta I liked the first half of before it became too silly and slashery

Iβd like to think thereβs still hope for humanity to turn this ship around, but my gut is screaming otherwise.
Far too many people canβt see beyond their own noses to make the necessary adjustments for real change.

Age verification?
I remember the Habbo Hotel raids.
Tl;dr: The vast majority of adults will never have to interact with our age assurance systems and their experience won't change, because we know Discord and how people use it, so we're designing to respect privacy and deliver a safer experience while minimizing friction for adults. Hey folks β Iβve been on Discord since very early 2016 and actually joined the company in 2017. Safety is one of my areas, so todayβs announcement on our blog is something Iβve been pretty involved with. Iβve always cared about Discord's approach to privacy (E2EE for A/V was another of my projects here), so I figured Iβd add some more context to today's news. I can say confidently that the vast majority of people will never see age verification. I say this because we launched age assurance in the UK and Australia in 2025, and we have some pretty good data on this now. The idea here is that we can pre-identify most adults based on what we already know (not including your messages!), and that looks to get us pretty far here. No face scans, no IDs, for the vast majority of adults.
And if you are one of the smaller subset of folks that we can't definitively pre-identify, then still, you only have to do it if you're accessing age-restricted servers or channels, or changing certain settings. That's really not most users. (Altho... might be more Redditors, tbh.) Last, I know that there is concern about privacy and data leaks. That's a real concern. The selfie system is built purely client-side, it never leaves your device, and we did that intentionally. That'll work for a bunch of users who aren't pre-identified as adults. But if you do end up in the ID bucket, then yeah, you're right that has some risk. We're doing what we can to minimize this by working with our range of partners (who are different partners than the data leak you read about), and if it's any help, we learned a lot internally from the last issue. But I get if that doesn't necessarily inspire more confidence. Anyway, weβll be sharing more next month as we get closer to the global roll out about the system, including the technology behind it in March. I honestly wouldn't be happy if we didn't build something good and I am excited about what weβre launching, but please let us know what you think when we share more details. And I really appreciate everybody's feedback here today. Weβre definitely reading it!
Discord is already starting to walk things back a little, so people should keep doing what they're doing (cancel Nitro, leave feedback/criticism, direct contact through support tickets/phone/email/etc)
Being opposed to oppression and greed is anti-fascist.
