@interracials3x Same with Baltimore club music or at least it used to be

in the Midwest ghetto house is a huge part of black culture. it's literal folk music. "Cajmere - percolator" is played in black households at birthdays, funerals, baby showers. when I was a kid we would sing dj clent and paul johnson songs on the playground

@SexyLikeMeiosis Google and Apple

Which Bay Area tech companies have done the most good in the world?

@lumeysea Lune, you will, of course!

@sevensixfive 😠😠 no

Reminder that prelude to disaster looks like whatever you’re doing right now

@lumeysea @thrialectics I see what you did there

@thrialectics @sevensixfive #rebuked

@lumeysea Just keep being careful!

@sevensixfive Fred! 😠

@BinAnimals Oh I know it

@sevensixfive Rohrmeier core.ac.uk/search/?q=Plan… (deeper links are flaky)

Has anyone written about Burning Man, Black Rock City and Ebenezer Howard’s Garden City drawings?

@bonkydog Yep!

@sevensixfive ok but that is always true except during a disaster

@CowgirlRevolt @adastroworld Pan could expand

@sevensixfive @adastroworld i feel like pan implies attraction to humans and androids whereas we're talking about primary sexuality to android beings

What term should we use for people attracted to AIs and robots?

@adastroworld @CowgirlRevolt That’s just pan it already exists

@CowgirlRevolt cc @sevensixfive thoughts?

@CowgirlRevolt @deepfates Always a jumpscare to open notifs like this

@MirandaWMeyer Oof, yeah. That sucks I'm so sorry.

I got COVID in 2021 in Lisbon, Portugal and it was one of the strangest worst experiences of my life. Don't talk to me about the survival rate or whatever, you did not want to be infected by that disease.

@Simberg_Space I don't see any opposition or criticism at all here. x.com/search?q=from%…

@sevensixfive When he does good things, I support them. When he does dumb things, I oppose them. Unlike apparently many, I'm not deranged in either support, or opposition to policies simply because Trump.

Why are they all yammering about Fauci again?

@Simberg_Space Sorry. I thought I had seen you on here supporting this president

@sevensixfive Despite how this conversation has gone so far, I would still accept an apology, but I would be quite shocked if I got one, because we now know who and what you are.

@Simberg_Space I honestly don’t believe you Rand

@sevensixfive No. Have you ever heard what ASSUME means?
