@etherdiver congrats dude, amazing stuff.
Bandcamp Friday for me is the exact opposite in an almost comically depressing way. Zero sales, 3 streams...😒
I know there's a market for what I write but I am f***ed if I can find it or they can find me.
Either that or I'm just delusional and what I put out is utter garbage #shrug.
It's incredibly demoralising at the moment.
Not looking for pity or kind words, just shouting into the wind 🌬️💨

@georgetakei To be fair (and they aren't so I don't see ANY reason we should be but still, to be fair) it references the comments of an activist which in all likelihood does mention Trumpski. Which makes it more of a self-own if you post it where the opposition can point that out. #shrug Still funny AF

RFKjr is making a simple mistake, well simple minded.

When RFKjr, Trump's Fourth Horseman, is talking about austic people, (won't pay taxes etc.) it's a mind worm* glitch, he means dead measles babies not autistic folks.

Dead measles babies. Sterilized mother's.

*mind worm, brain worm #shrug

Measles murdered children will never pay tax, never skateboard, never rise up against fascists, never end billionairism.

@RavenLuni clearly he doesn't understand that people are telling him to go fuck himself #shrug

@josephcox Fixed Title: here's an example of one thing "AI" actually does pretty well.

It's an AI summarizer: summarizes customer comments, and it works pretty well. I see that it also says "boring and grim", are we questioning that? Chatbot AI is pretty good at this.

@mfeilner I suspect EU members are more worried about Trump trumping them at the moment. #Shrug

It feels like the collective #global response to the #Trump #tariff #war is essentially just "OK. We'll get those things from another country in the world then NBD." or in short, just the #shrug emoji 🤷🏻‍♀️.

@Jeremysean55 @evanspw Hmm. Not really. Even when I record 5 or 6 back to back, I've never broken 0.02 and the Nova was the second record in a row for that set. #Shrug I've always said I wanted a show where I could be more myself.

I just don't get the modern male thing about not wanting to be around women. I mean, I like women, and especially when I was young I really liked women. If there are more women then men, that's good?

I mean, I'm laughing, it's so absurd.

All male groups are fun too. #shrug

@baldur Well... resizing when *added*... sounds like something a phone email client would do an that would be pretty silly in a PC/web client.

Different people have different, often diametrically opposed attitudes for email requirements. I *never* want my images automatically resized or compressed in any context, whereas for most people this would now be considered a normal default behavior. #shrug?

Far Left or Far Right - Neither seems great...

And the middle seems to suck also for it's ambiguity and uncertain mix.

Now that the dust has settled, #CastleCannon was incredibly underwhelmed with the final Gavin & Stacey. The cast seemed to be working extra hard to create comedy; it didn't come across naturally. The 'party' that led to Smithy oversleeping was a prime example, with the cast acting like they were having a good time rather than looking like they were having a good time. Pam (Alison Steadman) seemed wooden in her (stressed) performances, plus it didn't help that many loved characters were missing. Yeah, yeah. I know Doris is dead in real life.

Favourite bits:
Nessa - Mouth organ
Pete & Dawn
Gwen - Who's coming down the stairs?

Other than that, for me, meh.

@johnefrancis I've been getting various crappy emails from Colorado republicans. #shrug

The #shrug ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ or shruggie.

Best as original. #Emoji is unclear 🤷

The central character "ツ" is the character tsu from Japanese katakana.

@SrRochardBunson weirdly, for whatever reason, I can hear #GarthBrooks doing a cover of 'Home'.

#shrug. I just cancelled my OpenAI subscription to give #perplexityai a try. I think we may need to update the philosophy and thinking behind robots.txt in the future. If I ask an AI to search for something and the AI scans a page on my behalf, isn’t that basically the same as me browsing to the page myself (at least as far as the “load management” purposes that are one motivation behind robots.txt)?
