the US government poisoned bootleg liquor with methanol in 1926-1933, killing around 10,000 people, to dissuade home distilling. a hundred years later, people still claim that home distilling will blind or kill you, and that the US government protects you from this fate. propaganda is amazing

Literally anyone who does anything with regularity and dedication that isn’t typing angry shit on the Internet. Make things, grow things, start distilling moonshine, look there are thousands of options.
You know who isn't getting radicalized? Guys who do ships in a bottle. Embrace model-building and avoid the pitfalls of right-wing extremism
every time i see a white guy in their fifties radicalized by the twitter algorithm into racism and extremism i think about how it's a total failure of the youtube algorithm to instead radicalize him into home brewing, elaborate A/V setups, or DIY solar

This comes pretty close to distilling the entire sham of AI
When AI does something for us we don't get to be proud of it. We know that intuitively. They keep trying to convince us we don't want to do the things that make us feel good.

This is low IQ thinking, I can read every book in history by distilling it into one of three book archetypes

1) people in love
2) people fighting
3) Animorphs
You basically cannot.
