Uhhh the history of how Labour introduced neoliberal anarchy to Australia and then made it queer???

I saw a job ad recently for a cyber security position and the description was all “how do we use AI without leaking patient data, and also do it ethically and train it to replace our workforce… ethically” it was the most insane thing I’ve seen yet and I’m sure an AI wrote it as part of a plan to take over.

Getting close to a trans rally and sex worker fundraiser that my group are organising. Today I’m making some stickers and other silly little things to sell, it’s so relaxing.

Just got told we’re expected to start doing 100% vibe coding at my corporate software engineer job, the company is also getting rid of all quality testing engineers. Goodbye financial system

None in particular, I want my US friends to be able to escape persecution and be here where they’re safe

My job only exists because it was cheaper to hire several thousand tech workers to replace all the oracle products in house over several years than to keep using Oracle lmao

The anarchist-faq will get you most of the way there, and the K-On manga will fill in the gaps.

It’s always going to be a personal preference kind of thing. Personally I don’t really care much about “passing” and I’m usually completely okay being outwardly trans, unless it’s being used to harass/bully.

I had a weird experience the other day when getting an ultrasound where I told the tech I was obviously on HRT which she immediately denied. I get she was trying to be supportive, but it kinda just made me feel worse because of how awkward it was lol.

I love this stuff, I always put it on my face. It’s just enough to stop feeling like my skin is as dry as paper and it’s not oily, it feels more watery than anything. I switched to it years ago, use it after every shower and now my skin is so nice, presumably just because I’m not leaving my face all dried out, I doubt there’s anything special about this stuff.

That said, I do also use a very gentle sorbolene body wash and hand soap because my skin was too fragile for normal soap. If I don’t, I tend to get lots of sores on my fingers.

It’s been a funny little year for me, but I think all the pain has changed me in some important ways. Glad to say I’ve been sober for ages now, I’m legitimately happy, stable and thriving.

This last week has been positive, me and all my friends are being evicted from my favourite space in the city today but we’ve finally got a new home lined up for our federation and not only should it be permanent, it’s so much bigger and better, we really lucked out. In just under a week, they’ll be voting to let my trans activism collective join and I’m unbelievably excited.

It’s really cool to say I’ve gone from a terrified anxious mess just trying to find a social life to someone who looks after people, helps keep things running and builds community. I’m proud of me, I’m glad I survived this year 😊

If you can find spaces outside of home where you’re comfortable being yourself, you can use it as an opportunity to learn that it’s safe to be genuine and then push things as you get more comfortable.

I found outfits that suited me really well. And then I went out and felt self conscious anyway, but when my friends spontaneously complimented me, it started changing.

Confidence takes time, but you’ll get there. The trick isn’t to not care what others think, it’s to only care about people what the right people think.

A favourite phrase of mine that comes up in so many different areas of life is: “soft on people, hard on structures.” Individuals tend to be pretty good, genuine and caring people.

It’s much like how an atheist might be a great person, but the new atheist movement became a festering cesspool of anti-feminist right wing bigotry. Having a religion doesn’t change much really, shit people are universal.

I’m having too good of a day to argue about this so believe what you will, it’s no skin off my back. But I’ll say that being poor is not the same thing as being crushed by external forces, I never mentioned anything about anarchy making people rich. Anyway, wealth is literally a meaningless metric to those of us who don’t want or believe in money.

The case of the Spanish collectives is a lot more nuanced than that. Regardless, acting as if being disorganised is a result of anarchism is just silly.

Like I said believe what you want but again, there’s no reason anarchy is any less susceptible to external forces than anything else. It’s just about structuring society and giving a shit about people.

It’s my HRT birthday today, two years now and it’s really sunny and warm. It’s a nice day :3

I don’t understand why people think this is the case, anarchy doesn’t mean we let shit people do shit things. We still fight back, we still kick them out of our communities and we still protect one another. Real world anarchy has a pretty strong history of fighting back and keeping itself safe, the Zapatista still exist, the Spanish anarchists basically just lost a war and that’s not exactly a problem unique to anarchism…

It’s no more vulnerable than other societal structures, it’s significantly less so given the way that corruption is much much hard to get away with given that individual people can’t hold positions of power, only positions of responsibility which may be taken from them at any moment.

It’s not it “would work if,” it does work.

I love OT so much

There’s also a considerable portion of the world who hates Greta and is probably cheering them on. The first news story I saw pop up about Greta being kidnapped said Israel was doing the world a favour…

I’m getting replies in my inbox but I can’t view post comments lol, thankyou!

I’m not poor but most of my fun stuff is free, hanging out at parks (picnics with friends or just relaxing with a book or something), walking/cycling trails, free or pay as you feel shows and weekly food not bombs community dinners.

Nothing wrong with a 1 bedroom apartment tbh, and I don’t understand why not living in a house means you can’t buy and own things lol. I’ve got loads of stuff I can do here if I don’t want to go out, I’ve even got plenty of private outdoor space. If I didn’t have so much stuff keeping me busy I could very easily stay in my apartment for weeks at a time, only really leaving to get groceries, I’ve never gone mad from it.

Tbh I find this life is significantly cheaper given I don’t have as much maintenance as a house, and I don’t need to pay the absurdly high costs associated with a car.

Edit: looks like jerboa broke for me so I’ve got no clue if this posted or what anyone else is saying lol

I meant they’re specifically not going for that though. The experiment isn’t about improving the environment itself, it’s about improving the LLM. Otherwise they’d have spent the paper evaluating the effects of different environments and not different LLMs.
