Doctorow discourse 

Jesus fucking Christ, Cory, this is patently ridiculous.

He doesn't engage with Audre Lorde's actual intention & meaning. No, he brings up a Black woman thinker/writer/activist, assures us he knows how "smart" she was, & then dismisses her words out of hand without even superficial engagement by using a cute little analogy.

I'm not trying to nitpick: that is some real colonizer bullshit.

just to be absolutely fucking clear: if you cannot even not put the llm down even though you know you're funding fascism, why should we trust you'll do the smallest thing for queers when we're rounded up by the fascism you're funding?

i will not be entertaining technical arguments for LLMs any longer. if you use an LLM you are marking yourself out as scum and i will treat you as such.

crud

a while ago someone pointed out a page full of free VST instruments that emulate/simulate vintage synths, in a group chat i've since left

does anyone know a page like that? it was not the usual suspects like synth1, each vst was aimed at a specific synth, i believe at least one was roland

kink talk, ttrpgs 

Being a GM is like being a dom in that people often expect them to control every aspect of a scene to an exhausting degree with little to no support and then they get blamed if anything goes wrong, consequently it's a much less popular role and people always lament about there being a shortage, or resort to paid services from people with the presence of mind to recognize that it's essentially become work at this point and they should charge for their time. It's a role that can attract people with control issues, but when you actually look at what it takes to do it well, it's more of a service role than the ostensibly 'submissive' side of the scenario.

@selectric what really made me skeptical was when i learned that the stuff doesn't even actually make your body lose weight actively, it just suppresses apetite. if you're someone who is fat but also just can't lose weight despite barely eating due to an eating disorder, you'll have absolutely no luck and possibly even make your eating disorder worse
