v1 of @protopro.blue really starting to come together
Taking colloidal silver as part of a Breton to Dunmer transition is so beautiful
๐ถ Now Andy, did you hear about this one? Tell me, are you locked in the punch? Hey, Andy, are you goofing on Elvis? Hey, baby Are you having fun? ๐ถ
There's a reason in the end he was watching videos of his earth loved ones!
Unbothered. Moisturized. Happy. In My Lane. Focused. Flourishing. Watching videos of my loved ones while being rejuvenated and being attended to by friendly robots.
At its core, the long term goal of technology is to facilitate this feeling exactly in people
Results so stunningly clear they inspired this classic xkcd (xkcd.com/2400/):
this is a concise summary of the recent discourse re: atproto, mastodon, etc
Building an account switcher for @protopro.blue!
is that why he's avoiding all public appearances and journalists have to use telescope lenses to get blurry sasquatch shots
Health crisis where he's very much alive but things feel suddenly fragile is my read
Glad that it's cooling down. Great weather to take a train into the city and walk around today.
Met a robot named Kenshin walking around Midtown โบ๏ธ
Crazy I can just order drinks like this in Atlanta these days
Golden Krust now has Beyond Meat patties, and they're indistinguishable. I love Jamaican patties, and I hope they keep these around, as it's a great and easy way to reduce my beef consumption pretty effortlessly.
It's wild all the people that are constantly and performatively being mean about AI. Constant dismissive memes. Constant "Fuck you" replies. Constant antagonism. What a boring and corrosive way to live. And it's completely ineffective slop. It's self-congratulation masquerading as praxis.
3 and 4 are fantastic in how little they take themselves seriously. I love them.
Vance hasnโt posted on Twitter in about 2.5 days
Pretty sure he had a stroke or something and theyโre taking their time getting their proverbial ducks in a row
"have you watched all 37 seasons of disney+ shows?" "have you watched the snyder cut?" statements of the utterly deranged. I am simply waiting for the next entry in James Gunn's DCEU, where each film is a piece of quality art that stands on its own
It's 3:15am. Do you know where your cats breakfast is?
โAnd Trump is dying tonightโ - 21st century US idiom expressing skepticism about an overly optimistic statement.
Release the Vance Emails!
> bruising on the hands > missing for a few days have we considered the possibility that Elon introduced him to Ani?
There should be an AI music act called Sicko Fancy
I've listened to this song so much since seeing Superman www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lYI...
More examples x.com/BecomingCrit...
Elon is getting accused of faking payout numbers for X Premium revenue sharing. Everyone got the same amount within a few cents. This applied to people who saw massive spikes in engagement, even.
Happy Labor Day Weekend from The Trump Administration!
This sort of stuff is corrosive for strongman autocracies, even when nothing happens!
Thinking about this video for no reason in particular www.youtube.com/watch?v=ig_q...
There was a vibe shift last night, even if he is shambling around the golf course today

i have a previously stated opinion but more seriously, i consider the very public reaction to the plausible rumor to be a pretty effective form of protest that serves the same purpose of, for example, demonstrating progress towards majority
all the TV channels are just playing ballerinas dancing to YMCA?
gpt-5
apparently this guy is president now?
Chat, is it a good sign for your authoritarian strongman rule if the moment you disappear from the public eye for a couple of days everyone assumes you're dead?
South Park episodes have short turn around times. They can agilely respond to current events. There's still a good chunk of this season left. Imagine the possibilities!
follow the money
just rumors
he already killed the Pope
79 year old men don't just drop dead. Ask who has the motive. Like maybe they could get some type of job promotion?๐ค
President Trump is "diminishing, and Going into the West," per White House insider.
๐ซก Hoping to have a beta out in September
if stalinists are tankies and robots are clankers, are these clankies?
Now, now, I'm sure all the people saying he's dead are talking very prematurely. I'm sure it's just some horrific medical event that would make him look weak.
The edit resume page is coming along nicely ๐ค
To be clear: this is yet another reason why many of these laws are so problematic. If people want to run fediverse instances of any size, the fact that costly age verification requirements could put them in legal jeopardy, is very bad. Regulators make laws as if every website is Facebook.
โThe CDC you knew is over,โ the infectious diseases doctor told The Advocate. โUnless someone takes radical action, there is nothing there that can be salvaged.โ
I'm going to say it: claiming at this point that white transfems have a "Nazi problem" over and above that of white people in general is a conscious attempt to manufacture consent for fascists to subject us to genocide
every morning i do state-mandated maoist struggle sessions with my Male Socializationโข as a penance ritual and it's a Kingdom Hearts boss battle where i'm fighting a fucked up and evil version of myself in the Dive to the Heart. i learned how to do double jump air flips (Female Socialization)
Had *three* cats snuggle last night. They all got into a big ball together. Wally was one of them, of course.
while we were worried about foom paperclip maximizers, the real danger all along was sycophancy
how many people sharing that โai gives you cognitive declineโ paper actually read the paper, cause iโm pretty sure reading headlines and going โhehe priors confirmedโ also contributes to cognitive decline
I wouldnโt say โbelovedโ but thereโs an episode of Mythic Quest that makes every game dev dissociate
> convince MAGA to use AI to determine who is too dangerous to own weapons > MAGA salivates at the idea of rounding up trans people > robots come take their guns away > "right-wing white men" > woke grok strikes again
Marx loved trading stocks even if he was an anti-capitalist
Putting [redacted] in posts about politicians and what you want to happen to them is about as transparent as "in Minecraft" please don't fedpost my friends the eye of sauron is extra special super duper on trans people today. Say what you need to say, just without that specific brand of hyperbole
The paradox of Trump 2, I think, is that it's a nascent autocracy with the qualities of a dying autocracy: The autarch is old, promising an early succession; he is using his newfound powers to undermine the stability of the realm; & the regime, for all that it's been accommodated, is run by idiots
Obviously correct
yes
one of my deepest, most sincerely held architectural design beliefs
I'm hiring a CMO for @protopro.blue, and I think I've found someone who's a good fit. I need to cover my weak spots. I can build cool stuff but marketing hard.
The 107th Mechanized Treatlers are going to drive a Temu tank onto the White House lawn
1 in 4 nursing homes will close their doors because of Trumpโs budget bill.
"Engles, can you send me some ETH, Bored Beaver Hegelian League was a rugpull."
Marx would've loved AI and crypto. This isn't a shitpost.
"Pat, why do you carry that ridiculous 600mm lens on long hikes?" Buddy, I can see mountains reflected in the eyes of a trailside pika.
i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.
Trumpโs government is doing the thing that news orgs and entertainment media love to use as visual synecdoche for an authoritarian strongman taking power because heโs an authoritarian strongman taking power, and importantly, *identifies as such*. he knows what he is! so do his lackeys!
workin on the @protopro.blue home page
iโve never understood the hate due to change. all of this stuff was inevitable.
You are going to witness so many miracles beyond your comprehension, and you will come to love it.
The two things that get me the most vile messages are liking AI (from leftists) and defending lab grown meat (from MAGA). I'm sorry the sci-fi future is so scary.
I'm deeply worried how much the right seems to be determined to whip up a trans panic over this too
My wife likes going for walks, and now @samreich.bsky.social's wife has me worried that one day this will be part of a ruse to lure me into an elaborate escape house full of puzzles custom-tailored to me
Used to listen to this one a lot while stoned in college www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2sp...

Novavax at least only needs to be kept just above freezing, might be able to be shipped with dry ice? idk just ugh
we unironically need DIY vaccination. import it off the gray market. I'm not afraid of using needles at home, I just wanna keep my immune system optimized
Google is releasing a blockchain, GCUL (Google Cloud Universal Ledger)
People REALLY need to learn about Terrorgram

*guy who has spent a literal decade failing to deliver on safe full self-driving* ackshually, my way is superior
It also had an underlying protocol that was meant to replace email but with way more features
Wave was so cool!
Federal prosecutors on Tuesday were unable to secure a felony assault indictment against a man who threw a sandwich at a federal agent on the streets of Washington this month, according to two people familiar with the matter.
Bodily autonomy is what matters most. People should be able to do whatโs right for them.
Nazi sopranos guy sends angry DMs to socialist sopranos guy, gets absolutely fucking dog walked and posts the messages thinking they make him look cool
Most anti-Ozempic stuff is just wanting to judge fat people and being mad it disrupts that
My 5-year-old self thought it must be super fancy because of the name ๐ญ
G+ had such a cool approach. Iโm sure Google wouldโve found ways to make it shitty, but I really wanted it to supplant Facebook.
Cozy with my wife, my dog, and my favorite cat ๐ฅฐ
