If you maintain your work and business WITHOUT generative "A.i.," you will be ahead of the game when these companies jack up their prices before crashing and burning.

Also, your work won't be trash.

March is Long Covid Awareness month, because March is a lot like long covid in that every time you think it looks nice enough to go be active outside, you quickly regret it.

I donโ€™t know how to use chatgpt etc but I imagine itโ€™s going to a website and typing โ€œoh no what groceries do I buy please tell me false god for I am so weak I cannot go onโ€ as your brain atrophies and leaks out of your ears from disuse and the machine is like โ€œbuy eggs milk bread and a horseโ€

There's been discourse on Long Covid on this site the past few days. I think some people are thoroughly underestimating how hellish chronic illness can make you feel, even if you aren't at an immediate risk of dying.

The San Francisco rock station constantly played "Personal Jesus" during their Rewind At Noon segment when I was in high school and it semi-recently occurred to me that "Mr. Brightside" is now older than that Depeche Mode album was at the time

Alysa Liu telling 60 Minutes โ€œI love struggling, it makes me feel aliveโ€ is a legit revolutionary statement from a Bay Area native in a time when copious amounts of time and resources are being put toward convincing us to opt out of experiencing struggle, friction and self-actualization

I used to think that having argued with British strangers on the internet about whether or not "Juicebox" by the Strokes is a good song had sufficiently prepared me for the discourse machine, and every day that becomes less true
