Its amusing how your timeline is now just replies to a bunch of conversations with blocked people, so its like you're talking to no one.

100%. Ignore the pundits who have literal stock in making sure we need to keep checking in with them to see how we should feel. They can't let us sit back, having heard the facts. They need our constant, unending attention, and so will never allow one candidate to be too villified or liked.

Fucking this. Their whole shtick is doing whatever the fuck they can to "even the odds" narratively, so that neither candidate becomes, in their stories, the clear choice. That's boring. That means people can stop reading their shit and tuning in to see how The Race is going.

I am seriously jealous of those discovering the work of French-Vietnamese speculative fiction writer Aliette de Bodard for the first time. "Whether you’re new to her work or have been following her for years, there’s always something new to try."

My biggest worry is the training for doctors on how to handle requests and, like you say, the lack of resources for people to be helped with their conditions.

I'm 100% in agreement with you about the risks, but the whole "government pushing maid on disabled people" is exaggerated. There have been a handul of it being offered it by idiots, such as this one (the agent was fired) and not a single case about maid having been applied inappropriately.

Some of the nihilism I'm seeing on the skyline is why Black people say y'all wouldn't last an hour as us, btw.

If someone was knowingly poisoning me, is attacking them and/or burning the place down not legitimate self-defense?

That's because MOST people are actually cool and reasonable and loving, and we're being held hostage by a psychopathic minority and their terrified friends.

Genuinely, deeply curious what you think getting Trump in office will do for the people of Palestine. Because he has openly said he'd support the war even harder.

So if genocide is gonna happen regardless of which guy wins, which is the case, should we not also then consider EVERY OTHER ISSUE happening at the same time when making a choice?

I don't like being used as a wedge issue for their horrendous projects. "It helps disabled people." And if it were a legit disability aid, then ONLY disabled folks should be using it. Sorry. It gets me fired up. You're right. I shouldn't have badgered Sid about it, tho. I apologize.

The main problem outside of the vast amounts of resources it uses is that ALL of them are trained on images from people who did not consent to their work being used this way. Literally every single one. No way to change that unless they scrapped it all and started over, which they will never.

I have several disabled friends (mainly folks with failing eyesight or cognitition) that use it, and as valid of a use as that all is, it doesn't change that it's rotten software from the core. It's harmful in all ways. I just don't think us disableds should be using it at all, either. It's a wedge.

No, I don't think Sid is doing bad in the world. I'm very protective of my artist friends and their livelihood, and AI-image generators were made with the explicit purpose of putting them out of work. Even using it for 'benign' purposes like reference generation is still using it. You're right, tho-

Thank you for explaining to me how I'd feel, I didn't know that. Also, I do have aphantasia, so. I'd genuinely - genuinely - love to have a conversation about all of this, in a non condescending way, but I don't think that's in the cards.

We are absolutely in a better place right now than if Trump had been in power the last four years. What the fuck.
