I’m an introvert. It’s not that I don’t like people — I just value peace. I recharge in quiet, not crowds. I speak when it matters. I’m observant, not distant. I crave real connection, not constant attention. I’m low maintenance, high depth. If I choose your company, it means everything.

@gregjenner.bsky.social Did you know that you were an answer to a general knowledge question on Australian Mastermind last night? Something like "Who is the host of the comedy history podcast 'You're Dead To Me'?" The contender got the answer right.

Even if Hermes made their bags in Italy, with Italian leather, and had them hand stitched with gold thread, by expert artisans who live in a castle run by magic pixies - $30,000 is STILL a rip off. It’s a bag.

AI is contributing to the need for more computing hardware, which puts a strain on the supply of rare earth minerals, which is why we’re deep sea mining. So those fake AI videos of deep sea “creatures” are not only bullshit, they are contributing to the destruction of real deep sea ecosystems.

It's very easy to not use AI image generators. Less than zero effort required. There's no reason to help normalise it at all.
