Lolwut: โ€œWas the Iran War Caused by AI Psychosis?

AI simulations shaped Operation Epic Fury. 7 planning assumptions failed in 23 days as the Iran war defied every AI prediction.โ€

On the one hand, this explains a lot of things. Like how SECDEF didnโ€™t understand that bombing the capital of a country wouldnโ€™t win them friends, and that Iranโ€”who famously sent children to the front lines in the Iran Iraq warโ€”wouldnโ€™t fold easily, and would be willing to suffer the closure of the strait of Hormuz.
On the other hand, holy shit! What the actual torment nexus fuck?
Thirdly, the US is now considered an unreliable ally (although ask the Kurdsโ€ฆ)

"...after heavy chatbot use, โ€œreal-lifeโ€ interaction can feel more challenging and less appealing, causing some users to withdraw from friends and family into an AI-fuelled echo chamber. All your own thoughts, impulses, fears and hopes are fed right back to you, only with greater authority."

If any of you #men following me missed my mutuals' post - expressing gratitude for men who stepped up & helped take on some of the emotional labour than women have shouldered - please read it, first:

disabled.social/@vlrny/1163251โ€ฆ

Then - make your own decision on whether to be a silent enabler of misogyny or a comrade to women who have to deal with misogynist wankerbutternoodles here.
You also can choose to support anti-ableism by speaking out against it, in public (like many women already have!) or keep on silently enabling it by choosing to be friendly to ableists who are also misogynistic.

Many women & disabled folks are watching. We notice who steps up & who does not. You can do better than stay silent about misogynists - as men - that call has to come, loudly, from within the mens' arena. You can do better than silently enable ableism - that call has to come from non-disabled folks.

Stop being OK with letting women & disabled folks take more hits - because you lack courage to take some of the emotional labour off our overburdened backs.

*You're supposed to feel some discomfort reading this - if you've failed to use your privileges as men to do better than be silent enablers of your fellow men.*

There've been a couple of cultural dust ups on fedi in the last few weeks and I just wanted to thank the men who've boosted and uplifted the voices of women calling bullshit, and especially those taking the time to talk to men individually trying to explain why they are out of line.

Women often complain (justifiably!) about having to do all the emotional labour in social settings and it is just so beautiful to see men stepping up.

Serious respect, mah dudes!

Also - piss right off to anyone who thinks if you're a POC queer, you can't possibly ever be a misogynistic ableist wankerbutternoodle. That's completely untrue.

I have dealt with more than one misogynistic ableist POC queer before. One got kicked out of a resistance camp on mainland because they were a raging racist to one of our black comrades & they also said disabled people should go home. Another I knew was kicked out of wellness healing circles for making racist comments towards Black & Latino comrades.

Meanwhile, Israel takes it by force, then spreads Islamophobic hate against the Palestinian Muslims who have kept the peace for a millenium between 6 ancient Christian churches who can't coexist peacefully without them.

"For over 850 years, two Palestinian Muslim families have been entrusted with the keys to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, the holiest shrine for Christianity. The keys were created on July 15, 1149. The leader Salah Al-Din (Saladin) assigned the keys to the Joudeh Al-Husseini family on February 10, 1187, as the sole legitimate custodian of the keys and for the Nuseibeh family to open and close the doors of the church. These two Palestinian Muslim families have been performing this duty of honor every single day in a spirit of goodwill and respect for both faiths."

So, this is an observation i made about fast SM. you guys will get this and realize the same thing i did, when I first heard the like, and unlike sounds. I'm not going to say much, I'm going to let the audio speak for itself. And I used Microsoft Eva for this because i'm too lazy to record. Sorry, but I'm not in the recording mood right now. I wanted to post this using fast SM, but the stupid thing wouldn't let me. I will let the audio speak for itself. i don't need to explain much here.

The FTC said OkCupid and Match shared nearly 3 million user photos with Clarifai in 2014, along with location and demographic data, without telling users or offering an opt-out. The proposed settlement, filed in federal court, includes no financial penalty and no admission of wrongdoing. It would permanently bar OkCupid and Match from misrepresenting how they collect, use, share, delete, or protect personal data and privacy controls.

Trump is saying that the US will leave Iran. He is not saying the US will stop aiding Israel in the continued bombardment of Iran. The US and Israel are basically functioning like the Democrats and Republicans. Same goal, good cop/bad cop to get to that goal. Trump is gonna try to play good cop until his rage bursts over again, and let Israel be the bad cop. They both work for the same oligarchy.

Former House representative Marjorie Taylor Greene has announced her candidacy for SLUG queen after relocating to Eugene from Georgia, her home state. Greene resigned her House seat in January, and since then, has renounced MAGA politics and President Donald Trump over the Epstein files, health care costs and the war in Iran.

An argument against birthright citizenship. Or perhaps better, arguing against the expansive definition being used today.

I think #HeatPump clothes dryers are a technology we need to embrace, due to them being more efficient and also not spewing a cloud of microplastics out the side of your house.

However, I really wish #Whirlpool had considered how people could clean lint out of the heat exchangers without taking the whole damn unit apart.

new james blake album is some of the most worst music ive heard in a while . uninspired contrived critic bait soykaf wrapped in self aware cynicism about it . impactless "sprawling, artsy" soundscapes and lo-fi guitar reminiscent of the alt r&b and male art pop dicksucked by pitchfork in the early 2010s envelop you in a miasma of boring detachment to prove its deeper meaning . if the banality of it being true "adult contemporary" and the gauche viola loops of "doesn't just happen" that haven't been in style since the mid 2010s don't make you groan, the runtime and awful pacing will . this sounds like fucking hozier
