  • Little Fly,
    Thy summer’s play
    My thoughtless hand
    Has brushed away.

    Am not I
    A fly like thee?
    Or art not thou
    A man like me?

    For I dance
    And drink, and sing,
    Till some blind hand
    Shall brush my wing.

    If thought is life
    And strength and breath
    And the want
    Of thought is death;

    Then am I
    A happy fly,
    If I live,
    Or if I die.

  • Turns out Picard is a raging alcoholic with cognitive impairment and is only a figurehead the crew needs in place in order to manage the ship.

    It also turns out that the entire crew is actually Borg which have adapted into creating perfect disguises for their physical implants and augmentations, to hide their identity and infiltrate the federation … with an entire federation ship crewed by Borg and captained by a single human who is a helpless easily manipulated alcoholic.






  • lol … they turn off the swear filter and everyone starts talking like my trailer trash neighbours down the street

    “Yeah, we fucking had a fuckin bbq last night, and I fuckin had a beer and the fuckin beer burst the fuck open and fucking sprayed fuckin beer like fucking all of the fuckin place and fucked up shit and then we ate some fuckin chicken and the fuckin chicken got fuckin burnt but we fucking ate it anyway … yeah it was fucking crazy … but how the fuck are you doing?”




  • AI is very useful and powerful as a propaganda device and a system to generate and disseminate disinformation, misinformation and non-information very quickly and very efficiently.

    It was thought that the internet would do the same but that system only goes at the speed of humans and the whole system is regulated by humans … so as propaganda tool, it has worked better but not as well as predicted. Humans saw the the potential for abuse and fought back against it.

    AI is like propaganda on cocaine … and there is very little to stop it other than our awareness of it … but the majority of everyone in the world don’t care to understand what they are watching is real or not. What that means is that AI is set to reshape how everyone thinks and how we all see the world.


  • Investors are like parasitic leeches to any business model. As soon as you add them, the business has to grow in order to satisfy the leeches who provide no benefit to the model other than to be attached to it. If you ignore the leech, they’ll drain all your lifeforce, so your only option is to satisfy them and feed them. Unfortunately, they are also ravenous creatures who are never satisfied. If you feed them a little, they’ll want more next time in an endless cycle.

    Once you are infected by investors … eventually they will destroy whatever you created.


  • For modern audiences, it would probably be seen as awful. A lot of a humour is dated and not that funny. But there are moments and scenes where everything is still very relevant and will always be relevant.

    One of the greatest criticisms of Monty Python and satirical comedy is that it all just places a giant mirror on society and forces everyone to look at reality in a different light … and in many instances, that mirror image makes us realize just how absurd reality can be sometimes. Some people are enlightened by it … some people absolutely do not want anyone to ever question their beliefs or how they see the world. I find that the people who enjoy Monty Python are the ones who are able to critically look at the world … and those that absolutely hate it are the ones who think there is nothing wrong with the world no matter how absurd.

    That is the greatest thing about Monty Python and as an Indigenous person, I’ve always appreciated it … they will make you laugh and think at the same time. One of the greatest ways to share an important life lesson or message with someone is to tell a funny story and make people laugh … the humour and laughter will make them remember those ideas forever.
