any mf who honestly thinks that uploading your mind into a computer will let you live forever has never had to restore a file from 12 years ago in a format that doesn't exist anymore

free speech is a freedom to ensure that you can criticize or question authority or certain beliefs so that our society doesn't get caught up in a totalitarian cult of personality. it's not a wildcard for disseminating discrimination because it's already been proven that bigotry is harfmul to society we live in and is antithetical to the principles of freedom and quality itselves. there is nothing to debate or declare about this.

so I checked Washington Post's article about Google C4 dataset and used their tool to navigate in it and I gotta say that Google started scraping mastodon instances too. I don't know how they do that, but they did it. they even have their teeth in vulpine.club and meow.social albeit it accounts for very little data and is less than 1% of all tokens though. that being said. wow. fuck.

Preferences of mastodon -> preferences -> other -> Opt-out of search engine indexing turn on this

@tillianisafox Probably they just index the public pages? All search engines do it.

@tillianisafox In my limited experience (which included attending the Taos Toolbox workshop) there is an absolute diversity of approaches. What works for me (and maybe only for me) is to write a treatment first, in the words I would use to explain the story to a friend over the phone when both of us are stoked about it but slightly in a hurry.

@tillianisafox I am very much a planner. But i like to run with whatever inspires me. And if I feel it, it works out and keeps giving. My planning is just living and thinking deeply. I don't want to write frilly meaningless fluff, so I embrace my voice and write what makes me think and feel. Which might be cringe but no direction is necessarily wrong, in world building or story writing, as long as it feels right. Otherwise, meh. I just need more inspiration, or to chew on ut more. :blobCatBloc:

@tillianisafox youβre liable to get as many different answers as replies. Every writer finds their own path. Try, fail, try again, fail better β¦

worst of all, this place out of every any other one. people make babies and don't think how these babies might live later in the future. none of them do. they're here for the shiny aesthetics of being a parent without the implications of it.

sometimes i wonder if there is a dead person somewhere that i could have been friends with, had they not died before we knew each other

maybe they would have liked me. maybe they would have loved me. i wonder.

everytime i hear or read about queer books being banned it becomes clear to me that as a writer my desire to write stories with queer or marginalized characters becomes not just a creative pursuit but a duty to other queer people.

also: how do you even "upload" your mind? your consciousness is stored in physical form - neural pathways. even if you find a way to somehow transfer them into digital form, i am not sure that the copy of your brain will be the actual you with YOUR OWN consciousness, and not just an independent copy of you.
