@Bundeskanzler ,was ist das?

reading a historical romance novel and reflecting on the way these stories often present woke nobility for the contemporary reader. a big thing is servants. you can’t not have servants in those times but many modern readers think “but I would never have servants. it would be so weird to have servants” and in order to make the protagonists of the story more relatable they are actually friends with the servants. but flip your perspective and think of it from the side of the servants. wouldn’t it be so awful if your boss was always trying to be friends with you. a really common thing you’ll see is the woke baronet having tea in the kitchen with the servants bc he’s not like other baronets. but what if your boss wanted to hang out and talk during your lunch break every day. not so charming when you think about it that way

the petrova task force runs out of money and Stratt has to sell Grace to one direction

let’s be real the pressure to use AI as an adult is exactly what they said the pressure the do drugs as a teenager would be like but the people that told us that caved immediately for the AI and definitely did not just say no

i feel like im a weird age where i got just a blurry glimpse at the world Before. it used to be cold in the mornings and websites had fun games and the search results showed you what you searched for. covid wasn't a thing. can anybody fucking hear me. did i dream it all????

is anyone else annoyed that "ai" encompasses both chatgpt and tools we train to do repetitive tedious work for us. and by the ripple effect of articles like "scientists develop ai to detect cancer early" that make people argue for the merit of chatgpt or become anti-medicine. and by the general state of the world and society

i don't really want to weight in on the "using big words in your writing is ableist" discourse happening on tiktok because i'm like 90% certain it's an anti-intellectual psyop to stir up drama in online circles to promote the use of ai to summarize literally everything and thus feeding the LLMs and lowering the populace's mistrust of such tools but i also have to say: dictionaries and thesauruses are the most accessible they've ever been. if you use an e-reader of any kind you can look up a word without leaving the page. there's a plethora of online dictionaries and if you just type a word + "meaning" into google it'll usually give you a definition. we used to have pocket dictionaries we used when reading in class. i have two on my shelf right now that i used in high school. stop letting the fascists purposefully misuse anti-ableism rhetoric to trick you into never thinking again.

Gott nimm meine Periodenkrämpfe und gib sie Friedrich Merz

schwöre die Aktivität an diesem Post ist wie so ein Merz-Bullshit-Seismograph. Immer wenn der wieder Notes bekommt weiß ich dass er was Dummes von sich gegeben hat

Hey ich möchte nochmal betonen, das diese Ideen von Merz und co mit der Krankschreibung/AU und dem Informationsfreiheitsgesetz momentan geplant, aber noch nicht Gesetz sind. Also ist JETZT die Zeit, sich die Pläne mal im Detail anzuschauen (gibt's z. B. Bei der Tagesschau) und dann auf Abgeordnetenwatch.de die Abgeordneten aus dem eigenen Wahlkreis für den Bundestag zu finden, und denen dass, was ihr hier gerade so auf Tumblr schreibt, in etwas höflicherer Form als E-Mail oder am besten Papierbrief zukommen zu lassen. Ich kann das echt nicht klarer sagen: DIESE REGELN GELTEN NOCH NICHT. Wie und ob das Gesetz kommt, hängt unter anderem auch davon ab, wie ungemütlich Leute das IHREN Abgeordneten jetzt in der Ausarbeitungsphase machen. Also bitte, bitte, wenn ihr euch aufregt: macht es in der Inbox eurer Abgeordneten und geht nicht davon aus, dass das schon steht!

every passing day with Merz as our chancellor just makes more and more clear that that man hasn't worked in a "normal" job for at least thirty years
