@avidseries I considered Hegseth but it’s like comparing hitler to goebells, like idk you could compare them however you want but at the end of the day one of them is literally hitler. I’ve taken way more psychic damage from trump than hegseth by sheer exposure

Disappointed that this isn't a Hegseth landslide.

“boy cats are nice and girl cats are mean” your girl cat is just sensing the internalized misogyny you’re projecting onto her so she doesn’t treat you with respect

@PDoomOrder1 @ilex_ulmus The image at the start of this thread is extremely thought terminating, and the accompanying tweet is only slightly more nuanced. Hitch your wagon to the slopulists and you won’t like where it takes you. You’re just equivocating, it’s slopulism apologia

@32Tumbles @ilex_ulmus I didn't say focus on it. It is an unavoidable aspect of this situation and frankly other billionaires should be speaking out and using their resources to counter this. Fairly or unfairly they are going to be grouped in with the people responsible for what is happening.

A big AI company strategy for capturing resistance is to prey on the nerd fear of rejection. They frame rejecting AI companies as making the nerd’s social space unsafe, and therefore it’s virtuous and a form of insurance for the nerd to defend the multibillion dollar bad guys.

My ingroup is everyone who wants to pause AI and upholds nonviolence and the law. The enemy is the frontier AI industry. If you’re uncomfortable with that, it’s great to self-select out.

@PDoomOrder1 @ilex_ulmus Go ahead and focus on class and see where that gets you. You’ll get some stupid wealth tax or something and completely fail to address the actual root of any issue at play. There is a cost to focusing on tangential aspects of an issue because they are more appealing

Are there very many billionaires coming out against this? I wouldn't say the 1% because the vast majority in the 1% are not actively profiting from this and will be harmed all the same. The people pushing this are mostly billionaires in tech, finance and defense. The class angle seems pertinent and will appeal to people.

@Doomlaser @eigenrobot Im skeptical the reasons Americans aren’t having kids are the same as the reasons North Koreans aren’t having kids. There ARE places in the world with higher fertility rates, the problem absolutely is cultural/technological

if a culture has lost the ability to maintain replacement fertility across its carriers it's fundamentally failing irrespective of anything else happening

I'm seeing a lot of my friends take this position but I think three things: 1) it's revisionist and an attempt to resolve cognitive dissonance over one of the most inexplicably bad things the administration has ever done. 2) it's a canard to say "the invasion threat wasn't serious, therefore this is a non-issue." The threat was a huge issue whether it was credible or not. 3) Denmark was absolutely right to take it seriously regardless, and their moves to that effect helped force the administration to back down, not out of fear of losing an armed confrontation, but by forcing key contingents who were quietly tolerating Trump's antics to get serious about pushing back

@Doomlaser @eigenrobot I think eigen would just say that in 2026 most human cultures, particularly first world cultures, are failing. And I don’t think that would be a trivial position to dismiss

@eigenrobot Fertility has been continuously declining for over 200 years outside of a temporary post-World War II reversal, but it was temporary. It just seems like a huge multi-faceted problem that no country has been able to address.

@tenobrus Is a trilogy really not a workable format? Seems like a skill issue, you could just film the miniseries and bundle them into three piles

agreed on chalamet. beyond that, the dune movies are absolutely fucking crippled by the fact that they're *movies* instead of an HBO show. they're forced into this shitty liminal space where they're simultaneously much too long and much too short to effectively tell the story.
roon@tszzl

the dune movies were doomed from the start to be good and not great due to the casting of chalamet as paul. he does not have the gravitas for a child-god and is much better suited for kind of silly coming of age movies

My teacher education program had a guest lecture about ‘indigenous science’ that talked about how quantum physics validates their version of panpsychism.

It is legitimately getting very difficult to find useful clips of animal behavior online because of just how many AI-generated posts there are. For example, about 80% of "opossum plays dead" clips on youtube are fake porchcam vids.

@RealEmirHan It would be punk rock to do something extremely niche but good. I perceive this movie more as slop, and slop is not a punk rock kind of uncool

Timothée Chalamet calls WONKA “the riskiest thing” he’s done in his career: “It was untraditional career step. That movie didn’t get its fair shake. I thought it was punk rock to do something that wasn’t cool. I don’t think people really took it that way.”

@DefenderOfBasic @aeronlaffere In addition to other replies, one thing I liked is when people attend a meeting by essentially cloning their mind and then deleting the clone, both so that none of them remember the meeting and so that none of them bring in anything that the weird mind clone can’t handle

@aeronlaffere can you describe a good example of number 4? Like one that made you think "i couldn't have come up with that! That makes sense" (I think I'm hunting for system level understanding that this book might have given people)

has anyone actually read "antimemetics divison" ? i have questions to ask you. I have never seen any actual discussion of it, everyone keeps making the same stupid joke. I feel like it's hurting the book
