a soft brown marten fursona wearing a cozy cream-colored sweater and making a happy expression. The marten has blue markings on their face, and a blue nose.

My ICQ UIN is 7231680. That number is burned into my consciousness. I inadvertently learned that you could see private conversations in public chat rooms when using Telnet instead of a browser on GeoCities. I can tell you the difference in audible dial-up handshakes between 1200, 2400, 14.4 kbps modems. I needed a edu email address to join Facebook after my university was admitted. We were here at the beginning. We made social media. You wouldn't be in my Top 8. I have usernames older than you.

An illustration of my OC Egg the Trans Raccoon sitting on a large cherry blossom with some petals floating around them. Egg is pink with blue and white accents, and a trans flag striped tail.

Olympia becomes first WA city with protections for polyamorous families One public commenter said he hopes Seattle will take similar steps to protect diverse family structures.

Olympia, WA just codified protections for polyamorous and non-monogamous families. Now renters can move all their partners in without claiming "room mate" or "friend" to avoid discrimination.

Since Discord's backlash due to Persona got exposed and rid of it (temporarily till replacement).

We should also pressure on VRChat because their age verification system uses Persona. Furality also required that for the next furcon. I'm surprised no one talks about this.

a digital collage with a pink, purple, green, yellow, and teal gradient overlaid on all the images. the images include a horse carrying a bucket, a cluster of mushrooms, a grub, a birds talon, a cicada, five spiders, two flower buds, a hand with an eye over the back of it, and a microscope slide of atoms. there is white text that reads "get weirder or die miserable." the background is black and there is a slightly grainy texture

Scrooge McDuck is the fictitious ethical billionaire that earned his way from rags to riches and whose wealth actually trickles down.

Almost all of Duck Tale’s villains are real-life capitalists; tech entrepreneurs, short-sighted investors, self-entitled moguls, and uh-… Greedy witches.

An AI CEO finally said something honest
(Meta
Dax Raad from anoma.ly might be the only CEO speaking honestly about Al right now.
His most recent take:
"everyone's talking about their teams like they were at the peak of efficiency and bottlenecked by ability to produce code
here's what things actually look like
- your org rarely has good ideas. ideas being expensive to implement was actually helping
- majority of workers have no reason to be super motivated, they want to do their 9-5 and get back to their life
- they're not using Al to be 10x more effective they're using it to churn out their tasks with less energy spend
- the 2 people on your team that actually tried are now flattened by the slop code everyone is producing, they will quit soon
- even when you produce work faster you're still bottlenecked by bureaucracy and the dozen other realities of shipping something real
- your CFO is like what do you mean each engineer now costs $2000 extra per month in LLM bills"

the watchers: how openai, the US government, and persona built an identity surveillance machine that files reports on you to the feds 53MB of source code leaked from a government endpoint. 269 verification checks. biometric face databases. SAR filings to FinCEN. and the same company that verifies your ChatGPT account.

so it turns out that the identity verification provder persona, with its well documented links to peter thiel from the epstein files and palintir, is keeping all data of targets and linking them to intelligence databases and watch lists, exactly like you suspected
