For one fucking day, I would like

Zero media reports on the child raping bag ‘o fuck. Just one fucking day.

I’m so sick and tired of his constant stream of bullshit being breathlessly reported by major media outlets bound and determined to lick his fucking taint raw.

Just give it a rest, you stupid motherfuckers. Nobody needs to hear or read that he thought his Jesus turn was him playing dress up doctor.

I despise people like Eyal Ophir Nir Eyal who say, “you should just have self control!!!!” Eyal Ophir seems okay for a Stanford..person.

It is my bloody house. My devices. My street.
Get this creepware the fuck out.

I am taking it to the police and the courts. Criminal liability is all that will work if a little regulation Lina Khan was bringing in was too much and sites in other countries the world over build, make and experiment with this creepware. It is a strain on every honest human.

I don’t even know what streams of physical ai are and I don’t want to waste more years focusing on this one shit field, where the most honest people in it and the few I respect like Prof Lecun admit that llms are a ways off and I..do..not want their worthless physical world bs next to be told in another 5 years..oh yeah that’s also a bust. Sorry about your life!
But look these creeps made all this money and got away with it! Now don’t you feel better?

I could not have envisioned anything this fucking stupid.

And no. Fuck this type of mob populism.

And I would avoid the Bible bangers I stayed with when I first went there.
I am already not contemptuous etc. But I don’t want to spend all my time belaboring the obvious.

It is very pushy and intrusive. It is easier culturally for me to understand when I see it here India- same dynamics and male idiots with a supporting cast of sleazy women.

And expecting to pass along with all the people going about their lives.

Just NO.
I never understood these internet people. All their language and ways of thinkjng are so alien. Save the world! Cassandra!!!

Who thinks like that? It is grandiose and outright wrong. But it doesn’t mean you have to reinvent the wheel all the fucking time.

I stand with my colleagues and I am reporting all the rest -in some cases to the police or at least civilian regulators.

This lawyer Aziz Huq gets it and I am not saying one should be rigid.
But this is bullshit.

No. It isn’t about throwing everything away.
Good grief.

I would like to especially thank the Freedom from Religion Foundation. I am never rude or bigoted. That doesn’t mean that stuff that has no basis at all in reality with various warring clans and factions throwing away environmental issues, science, women’s rights.
To return to what? Warlords mediated by tech?

No.

Thw reason Prof Lecun stood out to me is..yes..common sense. None of us are constitutional law experts. It is hard to be an expert in every damn thing. And it doesn’t mean that people are oblivious. But this cannot be justified as a teaching moment when a specific creepy and backward worldview has thrown out roughly four centuries of progress to cater to this fucking trash working in collusion with corrupt backward tech cos.

Mon Apr 13, 2026, 11:03 PM

I at least have to use a computer for work. And even with all ai formally turned off..
i have turned off as much as I can and am going to minimize use in some ways.

But so much is by now this embedded trash.. I am so angry about this. There should be criminal liability for all the tech cos involved and bogus faux oversight and faux fixes embattling any real science or life.

It doesn’t make sense taken only at facevalue superficially. But hey finally I am not all alone as I was from 2011-2020.


What is viable however is to make one’s own interactions with the outside (tech or reality in general) more structured without that AA sobriety adjacent bullshit these crackpots sell with everything labeled addiction except going on having children and being relgious and adoring a bunch of dim-witted male creeps. No offense to non-creepy dimwitted men. That looks like a oppressive form of self-inflicted misery. I tune out annoying people now, however they label themselves. Maybe these guys should try that.

But Lina Khan was the right kind of change to the status quo. This trash is the wrong kind and I back going back to what made sense in democracies like the US and India over stuff I don’t understand from China, Russia, Si Valley or the ME. But extended to new realities with serious penalties in many cases for having tried to get away with all this.
I back only that and it is worth it. In the mean time it is much easier to figure out what to do going forward.

I reject all the perverted teachings I absorbed in the last 15-16 years by noticing and then tryint to flee and then getting super hopeless the pointless drivel of the last 16 years. Maniacally stupid stuff.
Gah..took 15-16 years to …ewww..like the vines from Evil Dead invading one’s head. Ick.
Never again.
Total creeps..these tech creeps. And they found a fitting president and some garbage solutionism from hell. Yeah no.

That isn’t the problem.
I don’t like to say imprecise stuff. I don’t use the net on my work computer at all.

I can’t explain it well. But I don’t plan to put up with it and have my home filled with this worthless trash that ruins anything worthwhile and rare in any category or context. And the humans forcing it are the worst people anywhere.

People far brighter than I am can only allude to it. It is not that I think the tech itself is so sophisticated one couldn’t. But if one gets it wrong it is easy to reinforce the bullshit that only paranoid Luddites are complaining:

Trump and rubbish.

This is the problem with barbarians with the instincts of the mob mediate everything without any scientists or doctors in sight or coerced from all sides themselves.

These methods are too worthless to qualify as trash. Trash may at some point have had a useful form.

And by all sides I don’t mean the both sides bs. I mean the pervasive religiosity, creepiness etc. in these shitty societies.

And if people’s brains survive it is inspite of this. Not an endorsement.

Because to ask these criminals in the tech sector and their henchpeople to behave like something other than marauding misogynists is apparently being too high maintenance!!!

We are already too connected and yes I would like to end that. But not with exiting in a way that justifies and enables the parasites who all participated and coerced this.

The public needs to understand what a totally insane individual this self serving asshole is. By dominating the news with his idiocy even with the main stream media super coating he still comes off as a fool. The more coverage the more people are forced to recognize his i ability to govern. That whole pouting bully bullshit only impresses other low IQ folks who can't see through the bluff and bluster of a New York con man.

Even if you get it, the human brain maxes out wrt comprehension of the crazy controlled by the crazy.
Like I hate lots of awful people, but they are not so crazy that their reaction to disagreement is to bomb the shit out of you.
This is hell.

I am actually doing better finally having battled this media trash for this long, but I am furious at the notion that I should continue to adjust around creeps in all spaces.

Joost Meerloos’ “Rape of the Mind” might interest you:

One has to figure out how to, but devil’s advocacy or not I am sick of this argument - “Go Amish!” I don’t even like any of it or very little but some bloody bs.
Shoving you out of everywhere..

I mean..for a fairly brainless creep type it was a surprisingly successful con. But ffs..
I support Aviation Pro.

I was alone for so long, I didn’t realize that there were others.

Lol..I really couldn’t tell who was the “This is awesome and everything I want!!!” Vs “This is hopeless. I submit and obey” vs “Fuck no! Fuck this creep”.
I am in that last category to be clear.

I did think I was not unconventional to some incomprehensible extent. Ridiculous.

Thank goodness, I am not alone anymore. Unbelievable.

I am not an extremist or immoderate. This is.
Come the fuck on. And in this overpopulated Idiocracy, by the time one set of idiots gets it enough tk at least cover their rears and shill the next wave of nightmarish stupidity blithely, the next wave of morons and then the next and then the next on to ♾️!

And they are unbelievably stupid enough to actually believe that the Three-Body Aliens’ chaos works. I see it all the time.
They are not fooling anyone. They are entrapping themselves.

But with so much collateral damage. But at least by now I can’t possibly be alone.
This has to stop and accountability come back without idiots susceptible to fear mongering and I am over any Sam’s menswear issues* and Merrick Garland tendencies I had which really are brainlessly correct.

Fuck this shit..

*: I do care about rules as all scientists do and yes I do eat a plant-based diet and am a Green lefty, feminist. But just to be clear, I am not like this:

https://www.currentaffairs.org/news/2023/05/can-the-love-of-menswear-be-justified-in-a-time-of-global-crisis

I am suspicious of terms like “purity” being misapplied. So that is an example of an oped I rolled my eyes over, but isn’t the “nuance” that most of this society was implicitly backing:

https://www.salon.com/2026/02/06/epstein-tracked-metoo-fallout-and-advised-accused-men-behind-the-scenes-partner/

I use that example because I really like Sam and I know he is not daft almost certainly. But if the perception is that one is immoderate in insane ways no. This is really shitty and an attack on all the values that make our lives better practically as well.

Seriously though..can’t go around representing people as immoderate at a time when look where this shitshow has gotten to.


I understand your anger AviationPro. I take society on the system of trust without being creepy, sleazy or stupid and I am so sick of them.
