Hanging around the chive flowers in my garden this morning and loving watching all the little bitty bugs! There was a honeybee, sure, but also lots and lots of sweat bees and parasitic wasps and butterflies and ants too.

Hey, it’s me, the annoying kid. Sorry about being right and also breathing near you.

Everything HR does is for the benefit of the company. They do not do anything to genuinely help employees. You are a replaceable cog and the moment they decide you’re not useful, you will be tossed out. Never trust them or the structures they put in place.

It’s kind of like construction work

Not an incel but someone on the trans-and-women-hating pick me pipeline: Got into a fight with a Reddit mod about autism. I’m autistic and ended up arguing with a sub’s mod about how not all autistic people are special snowflake tumblerinas. Left such a bad taste in my mouth that I stopped going to the sub, which was my main source of hate content. Let me get exposed to other viewpoints and ultimately I came out as nonbinary after previously saying nonbinary people weren’t real.

Especially now that they’re harvesting them for blood.

It goes both ways. I just leaned over and said “mrrow” to my cat, which she immediately responded to with her own “mrrrrow”.

Already happening, sort of. Google allows companies to upload sets of headlines, images, and descriptions, then Google’s system mashes them together and tests them to find the best combos. It’s not full AI, but considering some companies doing this are probably AI-generating the input, it’s getting close. I wouldn’t imagine it’ll be too long until Google does it for you.
