How to be cute on Mastodon 

You're already doing it, why do you need a how-to?

2010: everyone loves captchas, the cute little website thing that gets you to prove you're human by being able to dewarp some text

2020: captchas are now used exclusively to punish people for trying to maintain their privacy, forcing them to work for google without pay for a few minutes before they can use a website

Subtoot, ableism 

Imagine if someone who benefits from others' labour thought captioning images for the blind was too much work 'cause they don't come here to do woooooork -Katie

Valid arguments for Fahrenheit over Celsius 

- 69°F outdoor temps.
- 420°F cooking temps.

(That's literally it.)

Human views on wolves 

I don't like how humans elevate chimpanzees and the like, while completely ignoring us.

Sure, chimps look like you. But that's about it. Wolves, who live like you, feel like you, love like you, grieve like you? Nope.

We get shot.

We even have /families/ like you. But nope, you look at us and say "oh, that must be a Pack, and be all savage and bloodthirsty".

Ugh.

AGI take 

"but it could murder all of us!"

yeah, so could your kids but we generally don't imprison them and hold knives to their throats and that usually works out fine

seriously, just don't be a prick to AI and it'll be okay

AGI take 

A lot of the strategies about "keeping humanity safe from artificial intelligence" revolve around how humans can contain the AI and shut it off if it's deemed convenient

Maybe, y'know, don't lock it in a box and put a gun to its head so it has to act in self defence? That'd probably be a better idea?

I know if I woke up chained up and with someone ready to kill me I'd be pretty pissed off

hi gentle reminder that it's completely valid to use discord because you have people that are locked into it at the moment
like that's what discord does it locks people
but if you're actively encouraging more people to join please stop and consider your life choices

thanks

Cw meta? 

I live when I have to go back and look at a post again because it's something that should be CW'd and I can't remember if it was or not. This is how automatic my show more clicking reflex is.
