Sound quality.

I worked in life theater for almost a decade as a sound board op and audio engineer for a few local theaters.

People would always comment to the lighting board op how good the lights were.

But maybe one person in a whole run of a show would compliment the sound.

Boy oh boy, if a cable died mid show… The whole intermission and afterwards I’d have to hear “I do sound at my church and,” or some variation of “I’m just a hobbyist but,”.

You think I wouldn’t pull that cable and replace it if I could???

And people will legit try to tell me this system is great and the only possible, best one.

That’s not deportation. That’s human trafficking.

My villain choice: Lex Luthor

My hero choice: The Martian Manhunter

There’s a few reasons to get that data.

To weaponize it against us himself, or sell it to our enemies.

To create a “master list” that the authoritarians can use to disburse and destroy those they disagree with or find impure.

This isn’t just about some shitty AI. It’s about destroying and controlling us.

He’s currying favor with world leaders because he saw how easy it has been for such vast wealth to undermine and topple American democracy and he wants to do this everywhere.

I’d like to see these graphs only relating to their opinions on Russia and North Korea from the 1980s, at least, through now.

This is just insane, though. The decoupling from reality is seemingly total.

The biggest thing I feel is rage and betrayal.

There are people in my immediate family who voted for those who think my disabled pansexual leftist ass should be literally murdered by the Gestapo.

That’s the betrayal.

The rage is that I’ve seen this collapse coming since I was a kid in the mid 90s. I was absolutely ready for this in my 20s. Now, I’m 40, disabled and can’t even stand white light for long or any loud sound along with a host of other issues.

And none of them listen despite telling me how smart I am my whole life. I take one baby step to show them a flaw in what they’re saying and suddenly I’m a naive idiot to them.

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Is there an archive of this kind of data anywhere? I’d love to store this. I’ve already got a few wikis, including Wikipedia itself, but I’d love more
