ultimately what i find grating about the incursion of psychotherapeutic jargon into quotidien speech isn't even that it makes you constantly sound like you're about to institutionalise me (it does, but im lucky enough i can generally just lie, or avoid you forever) -- it's the insistence that by doing so you've magically eliminated the communicative ambiguity that characterises literally all speech, body language, social cues, norms, expectations, &c &c &c now until the end of time inevitably and always

This is a beautiful shot of the soviet's abort system, which is the system that flings the capsule away from the rest of the rocket in an emergency The soviet version is a bit different than elsewhere, because of how soviet capsules were under a fairing Overall a beautiful image of the rocket, the close up shot shows so many forgotten intricate yet important details

What are you talking about?? It's soooo definitely not racially charged

you kind of have to be genuinely insanely isolated from even thinking about real world racism to be seeing these ""slurs for robots/AI users 🤪"" and not have alarm bells going off about how clearly they're based on real world violent slurs for people of color. the fact that you didn't think about it is itself a problem, not a defense!!

conservative politicians: middle america is dying, small farming towns are falling into ruin and communities that have lived together for generations are being forced apart. here's a scapegoat to blame.

democratic politicians: the agricultural prosperity of middle america is fundamentally unsustainable, but the dissolution of small tows is the inevitable result of industrial capitalism. We need to limit corporate land ownership and agricultural monopolies, offer affordable grocery options instead of predatory dollar stores, and invest in better connecting rural and urban communities through public infrastructure in order to support their existence. We can't go back to the way things were, that was never a model that could last in the 21st centurey, but we can work together to find a new path forward no it's not, you hicks are just crazy and stupid.

On the note of Elon musk building shit that impacts marginalized communities, his Space X launch test site in Boca Chica is affecting the majority Mexican-American community! Every time a rocket goes off my grandparents home gets more damaged due to seismic activity. Also he’s dumping wastewater into the Laguna Madre which affects the shrimping industry which Port Isabel relies on. And the debris from the rockets fucks with the wildlife. But it’s space endevours and not AI no one talks about it

i mean this is what genuienly sometimes makes me angry about the ai discourse, right, people will momentarily like magically become aware of an incredibly severe and important issue but only for the brief moment and narrow understanding they need to complain about midjourney or whatever
