I don't recall any previous transformative technologies having to be sold so desperately. No one in 1999 was going, "Guys. Cell phone? It's coming, whether we like it or not. I think it's important, FOR WOMEN ESPECIALLY, to learn about cell phone. So that we're not left behind!!"

What's most interesting to me is the language used, here and by many Tech Bros, re: AI. "We have to..." "Don't be left behind..." "You're not keeping up..." "Going to make your life easier and better..." "You have to understand..." "We have to use it." Patently ridiculous language. No one "has to" use anything. Everyone is on their own path and no one is "being left behind" at any point. Use of this type of language is nothing but an attempt to introduce fear and a lack of choice to you. You have nothing to fear, and you have free will, always. That is never not true. Never.

It’s annoying that we realize children need a summer break and several vacations a year because they attend school, but we think it makes sense for adults to work 40 hours a week all year and probably get 2–3 weeks off in a whole year if you’re lucky.

And most Americans use their 2-3 weeks of vacation for doctors visits, appointments, and sick days. Most Americans go YEARS without a proper vacation that's more than 5 days long

This is Marty. He played the role of Bruiser in a college production of "Legally Blonde" and nailed every line. Was confused when people were impressed though. What, like it's hard? 14/10

Poetic answer: “It’s better to know you’re a normal zebra than to think you’re a weird horse.” Direct answer: “Without those labels, most people chalk up your symptoms to character flaws they can use as excuses to hate you, abuse you, and discriminate against you.”
Erin Ekins (she/her)@QueerlyAutistic

It's always strange to me when people argue against diagnosing autistic and ADHD children by using the 'we shouldn't be putting labels on them' argument. Because I was undiagnosed as a child - and wait until you hear about all the other labels I got instead.

@bigbadfinalboy @BrndnStrssng ...I mean we just got a new highly successful and now Oscar winning vampire movie last year. Like I get your point, but we're not lacking in original vampire stories.

@BrndnStrssng everybody wants to reheat a plate of the ready or not nachos these days. i’m so sick of the “evil rich ppl” trope as if we don’t get enough of that irl. like where are the new SLASHERS? the new VAMPIRES? the new WEREWOLVES? the new ALIENS? we’re losing the essential recipes here.

Men are so dramatic about being called useless when women are repeatedly referred to as “bitches” and “hoes” in songs and say nothing

"Bread is bad for you," "rice is bad for you"—sorry, I'm not subscribing to the idea that staple grains that have been integral to cultures for centuries are evil. I love you, carbs.
