  • Well, I love catching and looking at shrimps and crabs at the beach.

    Dragonflies look quite cool to me in general, especially when they have that green or blue kind of metallic shine. They devour mosquito larvae too, as a bonus. I live in a fairly wet area so I see dragonflies frequently, waterbugs too (if you mean stuff like nepa).

    Spiders don’t bother me. Truth be told, where I live the biggest spiders must be tegenariae, they’re harmless and just run into hiding as soon as they percieve a threat. I think some spider species look cool, like the goofier looking jumping spiders, but I’ve not seen them in the wild, even though I believe there should be some where I live. They’re pretty tiny though.











  • Problem is not all of them were, and they mostly picked the less obvious ones.

    Anyway, separating art from artist is always a tough call, but personally I don’t believe in it for people that are still currently alive and doing shit with the attention (and/or money) they get.

    I can get into the Cthulhu mythos (especially as a foundation for other stuff), but I won’t touch anything from J.K. Rowling.


  • sabotaging their company’s AI by entering proprietary info into public AI chatbots, using unapproved AI tools,

    This is counter-productive and can get you in big trouble IMO. I don’t even get what these are protesting.

    or intentionally using low-quality AI output in their work without fixing it.

    This is better and I think I would totally do this if management forced me to use AI. If they want to pretend using this thing is a better use of my time, I’ll give them what they want.

    Fortunately I am working for an administration that has had rather tame expectations for gen AI use till now. They’re basically just like “experiment if you want, be careful and use what works for you”. So I just keep doing what I always did.
