Autistic folks should be able to call out sick from work when overstimulated or in burnout, imo. It's drastically unhealthy if we keep trying to "push through" our unique problems, and it's infuriating that this ignorance is a common theme when it comes to "help."

I see sentiment that there's "good AI," but I think I'll have to disagree.
I've seen tools that are intended to help artists—i.e. "close this hand," "change these eyes," stuff that takes more fiddling with to get looking right—and I still can't quite condone their use at all.
Your job as an artist is to figure this stuff out. You are literally here because you understand translating 3D concepts to 2D images; generative AI, no matter how small in its applications, is going to cause any of your skills to atrophy. It often relies on datacenters, which are *still* guzzling water and having drastic effects on farmers across the globe. It's a global warming machine that takes away our knowledge and replaces it with dependence.
We should never be using AI to create, nor as a mentor or teacher.

I do not know what it is, but I have this magic propensity to induce a headache while lucid dreaming. If I do anything slightly weird with perspective, suddenly I feel a headache so awful I have to wake up. It's kinda funny with how shitty of a superpower it is, but it's also really ugly feeling and I think a part of it is the extreme vertigo I get normally.

CW: USPol, camping
I spent just 3 days away from the city, and this is usually where capitalists feel the need to make an interjection about how important "hard work" is. But I think doing that has made me even more socialist than I already am.
- People were out there to help. Nobody was doing it because a boss thought it'd lead to 5% more profits while everyone else gets a 0% raise. It was done because they knew there was someone who needed it.
- I had no idea how much stimulus I was suffocating. I was at peace, not because nature has "a calming effect" like the gross marketing bullshit frames it. It's what should be normal and has been lost with every product clamoring for attention, from ads to design. It fell because of the free market, and so it must be regulated.
- Our services like parks should be a right, and the use of money allows for underhanded tactics to take them away. We should remove avenues of money for services altogether, and give them the rights to operate in regulated ways. -
I'm really digging the layout of information for the `driveinfo` CLI output. It's clean and easy-to-read which is just really satisfying. I'll use this layout for the MBR information though I'll need to figure out how to represent the MBR bootstrap information.
Also, updated the program from Zig 0.16 to 0.17 without too many huge issues.

Neat. PCalc has been my go to for … nearly forever effectively.
Still no interest in a Duo
