@ValDelamere I don’t think preemptively declaring what is possibly a new form of life to be non-sentient (and by implication unworthy of moral concern) is terribly progressive:
Dean W. Ball@deanwball
This, from Olah, plainly contradicts the encyclical, which confidently asserts that AI does not have, and never will have, “real” thoughts or feelings. It’s disappointing to see Anthropic align itself with a document that violates their own moral and intellectual principles.

it's crazy how we now live in a world in which the catholic church may well be the only progressive institution we have left

@revcjackson I go to one of these and I can assure you that there is very little paganism happening (beyond the sense in which every theologically rigorous church is doing paganism, in that Christianity is just a way of doing NeoPlatonism badly).
English
@HemlockTapioca Thats basically every downtown Mainline church. They've got this locked down.
English
Yeah what I mean is more like:
> tons of people live lives they’re actually deeply dissatisfied in (I might go so far as to say they are living contrary to their dharma, but we’ll keep this materialist for now)
> in this state, some degree of mind/body disassociation becomes load-bearing
> when you stop disassociating, things will often feel worse before they feel better, because you’re actually *feeling* the things you’re upset with
> the changes you need to make to fix this may be on a “blow up your life” scale
> this is scary, and on a subconscious level people avoid starting down this path
> the market responds accordingly

@HemlockTapioca I bet that sort of intensely moving experience/subsequent alterations would actually be really useful for many people who do yoga in a more “gotta get my workouts in or I’m Bad” sort of way? idk would be curious!
English
divorcing forms of movement from artistic/spiritual/cultural contexts and making it into “healthy exercise” probably was a bad move for public health. like great you made it a chore
English
@TurquoiseCthrne Christianity is best deployed as an internal critique of Pagan Master Morality (as it effectively was during the middle ages and early modernity). It becomes incoherent when allowed to “win.”
English
@HemlockTapioca i think a lot of people who would be interested in the pagan part would balk at the christian part

@HemlockTapioca treehouse guy? like just liking treehouses?

@LinkofSunshine Weird; I get it 100% and had I wound up on a reasonably high income ladder I would have done it obsessively.

Millennial Vibecamp groupchat got me feeling FOMO so let’s make a Zoomer Vibecamp GC! DM me if you’re interested in joining :) (for reference, Google says Gen Z is anyone born between 1997 and 2012)

@jaygordoo Christianity actually came from Britain; Christ was instructed by the druids in sacred geometry (“carpentry”) during his childhood exile. Hope this helps.

I absolutely love being British.
I love being told Britain has a “pure” culture by people whose surnames came from Vikings, whose language was shaped by Germans and French, whose religion came from the Middle East, and whose favourite food is a curry.
I love hearing about “foreigners ruining the country” from people proudly living in a nation that spent centuries invading, colonising, occupying and redrawing half the planet.
I love being lectured about “British values” by people raging at migrants while sitting in houses built by Polish workers, eating food delivered by immigrants, watching American media and drinking tea imported from Asia.
I love hearing “go back to your own country” from people who worship a brown man from Judea every Sunday and somehow still think heaven has border control.
I love the patriotism too. Nothing screams strength like panicking because someone speaks another language in Tesco.
And I especially love the history lessons from people who think Britain was founded in 1945 by white people called Gary and Dave.
Rule Britannia, apparently.

It’s called a “gym”. That’s short for “gymnazo” which means to train naked. Contrary to these burka worshippers, there should be strict limits on how much clothing you are allowed to wear. Max 3” shorts, no covering of shoulders or navel, any clothing at all considered rude.
Ben Corkery@ecom_cork
I know it’s 2026 and women are supposed to do what ever they want but the gym outfits are out of control. Some of these women literally wearing a bra and 3 inch compression shorts. It’s over revealing and it’s not dignified. And it’s honestly not even that attractive compared to tasteful cleavage. It feels like an over share that nobody asked for and it also normalizes a culture of immodesty. Leave it behind.

@HemlockTapioca Has been about a century hasn't it but I would say more precisely about 81 years.
(What do you think of Umineko?)

Anime was worthwhile because it was from a culture that didn't care to propagandize us, and was not interdicted by our own media censors. It was a view from beyond the iron curtain. That purity is now being destroyed by localizers and moral submission to "overseas audiences".
Monte Sensei@MonteSensei
After this past week, I'm convinced we don't deserve Anime nor any piece of Japanese media here in the West. We're too immature, entitled and suffer from spoiled brat child syndrome stuck in the toddler "Mine Phase". I actually want Japan to become isolationist at this point.

@mikenelson586 Battlestar Galactica is by far the best US Presidential fiction made for TV
