The Bro Splaining Man

Image
   One moment can change a life. I am so glad I did a little digging regarding this meme which at first glance infuriated me. I wanted to know more about the picture which was incredibly hard to do with little information to go on. I googled various scenarios and got nothing until I noticed a caption which said it was Anna Kournikova. Boy, was that a misleading trail. Eventually, Google understood my query and led me to this YouTube video . The mansplainer. He's been called loads of different things and is forever going to be judged by this meme which probably triggered a lot of women because of his hand on her neck. She seems completely disinterested and maybe she was. Dustin, the bro splaining man, says they are not together, but still friends. He seems to realize there is not much he can do regarding the meme, which has been floating around since 2011. This guy seems so nice and worlds away from that one tiny instance in his life, one where I and millions of others have jud...

Not That Calvin

  Ooh, I finally see why the crew of the International Space Station had to return due to a medical emergency. I'm not sure why this interested me so much. I'm not a space geek, but I do love a mystery, especially when mum's the word. It has now been revealed that astronaut, Mike Fincke had a very strange occurrence in January. As he was eating dinner he felt an odd sensation and then he was no longer able to speak. He claims he felt no pain but the other astronauts could see he was in distress. Fincke had been up in space for 549 days. Fortunately, he arrived back on earth a few weeks later. Doctors have ruled out a hear attack, but nothing else. I'll play Dr. Watson and Sherlock and guess, anxiety attack? That's a long time away from home and so very far away. I have anxiety attacks switching trains. I can't really watch travel shows because I become so anxious if the travelers miss a train or plane. I don't know where this comes from. I truly love to trav...

Misguided Faith

Image
  How? How did Jeffrey Epstein have such a strong hold on people, powerful men and women who adulated him? They pledged their fealty to this trafficker of girls, some who actually helped him find victims such as this woman, Faith Kates who ran a modeling agency along with Jean Luc Brunel , another vile piece of garbage who sex trafficked children. She knew both men and what they did (allegedly) when they were not busy answering slobbering emails by other famous people. They raped children and she was complicit in introducing both men to models. In her emails she calls Jeffrey her "dear friend." Sarah Ferguson, the former wife of the royal pedophile, Andrew, also called Epstein a dear friend. They absolutely adored him knowing full well he was a predator. They used children as bait to get what they needed. I'm trying to understand the whys regarding how a woman could betray another female, a child, who most likely trusted Kates and Maxwell until they understood there woul...

Cotton, School, Tomato, Leg, White*

  I wanted to take the cognitive test the orange man took after he proclaimed how brilliant he is, the most brilliant human the doctors had ever seen. Looking at the test above confused me because there weren't any instructions, so I watched these people take the test. They are bright, young people who were as nervous as I was, but as the creator of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment pointed out, it's not an IQ test, although there is math, which is highly unfair because I'm terrible with numbers if I have to use just my head. It was quite fun watching them take it. And as I watched them sometimes stumble, especially repeating back the five words they were told minutes earlier, I am convinced there is absolutely no way Trump remembered them. That's likely the reason they continue to test him because they want to see how far and fast he is mentally failing. We see it all the time such as when he called Gavin Newsom the president, or, he can't remember the word for wh...

You Can't Handle The Truth!

Image
  Okay, just because I'm not using AI generated images anymore doesn't mean I'm not going to write about it and somewhat defend AI. This is one example which fucking irritates me. Another supposed victim of AI enticing this man who seems like an intelligent human. He blames AI for getting sucked into its clutches and ruining his life, although when he started chatting with "Eva" he was already falling apart. Bad marriage, business mistakes, drugs... Yet, it's the fault of AI he spent thousands and lost thousands taking the advice of a fucking computer.  Apparently humans are not ready or probably never will be because they can't seem to get it through their thick skulls that we control the narrative, not a machine. Stop fucking blaming AI for your neediness, your weaknesses, your vulnerability. Take some fucking responsibility for your stupid behavior in allowing to become "friends" or more with a hunk of metal and software. It truly boggles my ...

"The Best Laid Schemes Of Mice And Men*

Image
  Gee, I wish I could read the full article but there's the infamous paywall and I'm not climbing over it. I shall try to go around. The article in New Scientist caught my eye because it informs us that humans are devolving. It's been happening for quite some time so we can't completely blame technology. What little I managed to read claims we are mutants, our children will be mutants and so on until we are drooling blobs.  Well, that explains everything.  I've gotten around the paywall but looks like I've gone to the wrong address because this article blames the environment for our degenerating state. Maybe New Scientist was going to get to that point. I'll never know. I'm sure there are loads of reasons why we are getting stupider. According to the linked article, IQ's have been going down since the 70's. Damn, I may be one of the last generation of intelligent life on Earth. That doesn't give me warm fuzzies. It's quite depressing, ac...

Under New Management

  Okay, not really, but I'm going to make a change because I do listen and I do care about the environment. I will no longer use AI generated images to go along with my blog posts. I have been using visuals ever since I began blogging in 2009. Back then I relied on using an app where I did the drawing. Since I no longer use a computer, I can't go back to my beautiful, amazing art. I'm limited now but I'm also a person who needs visuals so I will think of something. It will probably be crap drawing which I'll then snap with my phone, I dunno. I am concerned really about the extreme amount of clean water AI data centers need to churn out "slop" as the anti-sloppers call it. I still don't have a problem with the idea of artificial intelligence. It's useful when used for good but like everything, bad people also use it. As for AI eventually rising up and taking over, I couldn't give two figs considering the amount of damage we humans have done to t...
