I'm creating a hobby meetup app because real life still matters. Currently in development.
nobody talks about how the internet killed regional culture. everyone under 30 has the same personality now. your grandparents' generation had accents, local customs, regional humor. you have tiktok trends and twitter discourse.
One thing I never do on here is panhandle for follows. I find it unbecoming and I prefer to spend my time making snarky culture posts that relate to my startup. But as my app advances closer towards beta status, I'm going to need people to use it. And while I am making steady…
And then when you talk to them in person they don't answer you because they're too busy texting
HAVE?? YOU?? EVER?? STOPPED?? TEXTING?? SOMEONE?? COZ?? IT?? FELT?? LIKE?? YOU?? WERE?? FORCING?? THEM??? TO??? TALK???

When is it finally going to click for everyone that none of what is happening is natural or organic? No amount of progress is going to make interfacing with man made robots any healthier or normal, either emotionally or intellectually. All it does is increase our dependence. We…
Man what an incredible once in a lifetime product
First they came for white collar jobs, then programming jobs, then they do our movies, music and art, and now they want to do manual labor which is basically the last thing left for a humanoid. This "revolution" is really going to push us to the limits of what we can tolerate.…
Elon Musk has confirmed that xAI’s Grok 4—which he boldly claims is “the smartest AI in the world,” outperforming “almost all graduate students in all disciplines simultaneously”—will be integrated into Tesla’s Optimus humanoid robots. This isn’t sci-fi. Musk plans to deploy a…
My best photo of Saturn I’ve captured since getting into this hobby 8 years ago.
