Some of these Gaiman responses make me feel like people have got to loosen their grip on their faves in general. I know not everybody knows that particular trial of having gone through a Marion Zimmer Bradley phase but, Jesus. Let's be adults

I’ve been informed this may be the autism, but I choose to believe I am a princess and pea situation just for eating red meat that isn’t exactly the right texture

when you cook something just slightly not how you like it and then can’t eat it at all, in fact don’t want food now

very excited to log on here and see everybody I follow saying "debates: not even once"

Also the associated other lesson: people can just dislike you it's fine, it doesn't have to mean anything.

Reminder that Aaron Swartz was facing 35 years in prison and financial devastation for trying to programmatically download and open the contents of JSTOR, which led to him taking his own life. But OpenAI is going to scrape all of academia and make billions by plagiarizing it.

New version of chatbot reaches level of function where it responds to all queries by making a little twisty-wrist gesture with pinched fingers and saying “But isn’t it more *complicated* than that?”

Reminiscing on one of my favourite posts of all time (11 years ago), best read in the "my name is gladiator" speech voice

He put it down upside down on top of the (broken) computer tower I’ve left in the living room for some reason

Every so often someone is like “I can’t take all this nonstop Bluesky toxicity and drama!” And I feel like I’m in some obscure room in the tower during a palace coup, unaware, eating cakes, wondering why my valet is late(he has been harpooned by the rebels)

Me at 18 degrees outside: mm wish I had a sweater Me at 24 degrees outside: I am fucking… dying???? I live on the surface of the sun????
