  1. ‘Free Clavicular ’ protest by Neo Nazis - Melbourne, Australia We doing the world proud 🥹
  2. Don't smash their dreams too early Some people love "gatekeeping by those with skill" might no longer be a thing. A strange way to look at it. Yep!
  3. Reading this triggered a thought! I think there is a new problem arising - AI enables those without "skill" and expertise to shortcut their way to able to produce skilled work. They have a low effort process that can overcome the hurdles years of training, effort and persistence needed to develop a craft that someone can benefit from. That prestige and access is available to them. Removing hierarchy and barriers to entry for many creative output fields. AI is democratizing skills. And separating skill acquisition from skill output. But the actual process of training that skill is a valuable asset. It trains consistency, diligence, dedication & skills to produce excellence in a field. Along the way prestige is built through networks and business contacts - social skills are developed as a byproduct. The networks we have to work with - human contact & connection - are fast becoming a new type of asset that traditional training methods (ie university, business etc) used to build through training processes. Skill becomes cheaper - networks become more valuable. They are being gatekept in a new way. Human connection may become a scarce form of capital. Authentic, high quality and trusted relationships.
  4. Don't you like it?

  6. Crazy alignment there! A fairy - hands down. I'm much too "see through to what's behind it all", curious, a bit mad or mischievous, independent and unconventional to be a queen or a princess. Great question. Good barometer for "essence"
  7. Being one! I love it My favourite part is playing in embodied experience and pulling a man along for the ride. Helping call attention to the nuanced parts of heightened emotional, feeling and sensation experience that he may otherwise miss in mens typical heady, analytical state. Obviously I speak in generalities as many men with strong feminine connection can be in touch like this. Nothing better than sharing an experience and deepening it through my unique expression alongside a man
  8. He's said multiple times what he does is not for women. He has stated he isn't that interested in them. He could be gay. Which is fine. Might alter some "theories" about his pathology.
  9. @JoshB I mean - look at the fucking difference in these two bastards (Red top, Eastern bottom)
  10. I see them most days - and I live inner city Eastern Grey's ...but I am fucking TERRIFIED of Red kangaroos. They are the turbo charged bastards you see with monumental biceps and legs that can gut you with one kick
  11. Yes. I use them as a loose guide. Many times when I self assess, I totally deviate. They are a pseudoscience. There is a lot of misunderstanding around MBTI. It is a descriptor of how we take in information and make decisions. All the silly type descriptions are based on memes at this point. There are some users who ascribe so strongly to their MBTI they take on limiting beliefs.
  12. @LordFall ha ha! A team UNiTe! Just put AI to work solving regrowing human teeth. Bloody hell! Huge problem yet to be solved. The fact we drill and pull and brute force a solution still is crazy!
  13. I personally suspect the requirements of Bryan and Kate is that they are received as complicated, special and unique. They reject a lot of ordinariness. I don't think they can accept they could be mundane. It's probably part of their brand/narrative they spin. Goes into it here with Rich in the second half:
  14. Wonder why it took openAI so long to inform the government this happened.
  15. If you refer to users of the forum - by the volume of posts I read from users psychoanalysing, interpreting and inferring from the most obscure statements, all with the twisted intention to undermine credibility... We have a healthy crop of those who fancy themselves armchair psychologists. Ready for harvest - or to be dusted with the pesticides
