When you're hitting the end of the chapter and you KNOW the music's about to drop #LiveALive

I've been running gdcparties.com for a few years now. Some shitty company BlueberryAI decided they'd just take all the source code for the work I've done and reskin it, advertising it as their own. Jokes on them...it was still linked to my events spreadsheet, and now their website looks like this 😉

Umm…Hi, I’m a nerdy yote. 🤓💚😁

it's absolutely a dog bed, tbh

i. love. yote.

Is it possible for #coyotes and humans to co-exist?
Wildlife rehabilitators think so.
In our latest #blog, we explain coyote behaviour (they really aren’t stalking you) and share tips on steps you can take to keep coyotes at bay.

look at this goober

more birds need to be collared.

if ya ever wanna talk about it, I'm finding myself with similar thoughts now and would love the company in yapping if nothing else

Anyway look at my fursona being super cool and magickey. Thanks to @kast.haus for the mewsification!

I'm so exhausted and _mad_

get away with while I put out feelers looking for something different. If I can find something to pay the bills that isn't software dev I'll be thrilled but I'm not confident, so I don't know what the future holds. I wish all llm shills and short-sighted management a very fuck off into the sun

I’m so sorry

Do you have the gift of ADHD-provided delayed sleep phase syndrome, too.. 🙃

There we go, thanks for kicking our just plain ‘too tired to proofread’ ass.

Among many other reasons

what the hell do i do when im so sick of the computer that i wake up one day and never want to touch one again?

i still need shelter and food and have no other skills (and also all of the other labour is seemingly being, or has already been systematically devalued)

Beyond the fetishistic obsession with agentic and generative artificial intelligence that continues to eat into everything enterprise IT, I've come to realize that the only real choice I have in the matter, if my emphatic sway as an architect and decisionmaker means nothing, is not to play the game.

So, I'm not sure what to do next. Today's been a real time.

Put simply, this violates my ethos. There are arguments to "maliciously comply", waste resources, and whatnot, but the entire point of refusing to engage with it is to minimize the destructive impact artificial intelligence continues to have on nature, communities, and hobbies. It's abhorrent.

－and, I will not be forced to support, use, develop, and build for artificial intelligence. This refusal to engage with artificial intelligence likely *imminently* puts me in in a position to either leave my field or find a new job, given news shared with me earlier today.

I will not pay for a subscription-based operating system. I will not support invasive, pervasive artificial intelligence. I will design methodologies to circumvent, remove, hamper, and disable such systems. Removing freedom of choice from computing both in business and home use is wholly unwelcome.

, however, it is not illegal for coyotes to bite one another, and is, in fact, encouraged.

teasing birds _is_ fun.

this is the kind of brain numbing I need tonight :P

and you're not sharing? smh

Today was pretty awful and I just wanna turn my brain off and numb out tonight
