The fuck is with the sudden influx of “innocent” pro-AI “I’m-just-asking” questions on the fediverse lately? Are you a troll using a bunch of alts, or are the tech bros so fucking desperate to get people’s buy in before the bubble pops that they’re posting fake shit on the fediverse of all places?

I think the earth is going to metaphorically say enough is enough and step in to fix climate change because humans are too selfish and greedy to do it ourselves. I think this is going to come by way of a massive volcanic eruption that causes short term global cooling while killing a good chunk of the population across a large geographical area both from the immediate disaster and the resulting long term damage from widespread ash/famine that could result.

I mix it with applesauce. Doesn’t make it great, but it goes down way easier than water.

The other night I made pancakes for dinner because I was tired, hungry, and lazy, and the bag of psyllium husk powder happened to be sitting on my counter so I decided to add a spoonful to my pancake mix to get some extra fiber. It worked out pretty good, I could taste it, but just barely (I also had added blueberries and chocolate chips, so they probably helped mask any unpleasant flavors and textures)

Well I exist, despite it seeming that no one else in the world is aware of my existence.

Critter is adorable!

My first cat was also a stray kitten that my ex rescued. He was 2 pounds and completely stretched out was barely longer my forearm. The first time my Dad saw him he said “look at the paws on him, he’s going to be massive”

The best part about having a cat that is 17 pounds of muscle and long legs is that there’s so much of him to cuddle and hug, and he loves cuddles and hugs. The worst part is that when he decides to sit on my chest at 4 am, slap me repeatedly across the face, and scream for breakfast, it takes a surprisingly large amount of effort to get him off.

Consider yourself warned, and may you have many cuddles ahead of you.

I’m picky. Some are ok, some just weird me out. I think it really just depends how close they get to portraying the human figure, when they start intentionally skewing proportions and making features anatomically impossible it’s just creepy for some reason. If it’s not a human character or if it’s still sort of realistic to normal proportions it usually is fine.

Personally, it’s the art form I don’t like. I couldn’t say why, but there’s something about the style of drawing people that I just can’t get past.

I accept that I’m in the minority, and I’m not criticizing it or talking down on it in any way. I understand there’s an incredible amount of love and talent that goes into it, it’s just not for me. Think of it as someone who says they don’t like the Mona Lisa, they aren’t saying it isn’t a famous painting or shouldn’t be well known, they’re just saying they prefer other styles of art.

Not liking anime is so isolating as a nerd because people find out I’m into nerdy stuff and all they want to do is recommend anime to me and talk about anime and I have to explain that I don’t like anime and won’t be watching that show they love (insert show here).

Star Wars. I really wanted to like it, I’m a huge nerd, but I just am not into it. I watched 4 and 5 and got maybe an hour into 6 and got up and walked away. I was so bored with the whole thing.

There’s a Winnie the Pooh episode where the characters are playing on Christopher Robin’s train set and the episode turns into a parody of a stereotypical Western with a train robbery and a Western town with a saloon and jail and all that.

In one scene they’re on the train and one character (I think Pooh, but it might be Piglet) appears out of nowhere. Another character questions his sudden, impossible appearance on a moving train in the middle of the desert and and Pooh/Piglet responds “it’s a fantasy”

I don’t know why that dumb joke stuck in my head, but sometimes when life gets to be too much I randomly think “it’s a fantasy” and things don’t really matter anymore or have to make sense.

Everyone over here arguing about the price and I’m just remembering how we got Half Life Alyx when they released the Index and hoping they surprise release HL3 with the launch of the Steam Machine and have it compatible with the PC.
