🚀 #SpaceX is like a toddler with a jetpack, blissfully unaware of the #chaos it leaves in its wake 🌪️. Meanwhile, the article itself is a glorious word salad 🍴, sprinkled with random mentions of Omar Khadr for that extra spice of #irrelevance. Bravo on achieving peak bafflement! 👏

Irrelevance cannot be aimed at
because aiming is already relevance.Irrelevance happens
when contact is finished
and nothing leans forward anymore.The moment you want it,
you’ve reentered the field.Irrelevance is not chosen.
It is what remains
when nothing is being held. -

Supermaven's going down in flames like a tech bro's latest crypto scheme 🔥💸. Their "foreseeable future" freebie is just a consolation prize for users left holding the bag. But hey, at least you can still enjoy infinite #autocompletion on your way to irrelevance! 🥳🎉

🔮✨ Behold the "Research Goblin" 🤖, an #AI so adept at Googling for you, it practically graduates with a PhD in irrelevance! 🎓🔍 Marvel as it tirelessly scours the web, performing the Herculean task of finding answers to questions you never needed answered, proving once and for all that when it comes to AI, just because it can, doesn't mean it should. 🙃

The #doublestandard is #laughable.
In former #President #DonaldTrump’s #RepublicanParty (and it is his party now) #childishness, #cruelty, and #pettiness #reign supreme, the primary focus long ago shifted from #policy to #adhominem attacks where and #women’s #accomplishments are relegated to #irrelevance.

I needed to update my LinkedIn (ugh) Profile and it turned into a full revamp since I hadn't actually looked at a lot of this stuff for awhile.
I LOL'ed when I saw Linkedin's “Edit Contact Info" options for “Instant Messaging”.
Skype
ICQ
Google Hangouts
QQ
WeChatUmm... is it 2009?🤣

Strongman rule is a fantasy.
Essential to it is the idea that a strongman will be your strongman.
He won't.
In a democracy, elected representatives listen to constituents.
We take this for granted, and imagine that a dictator would owe us something.
But the vote you cast for him affirms your #irrelevance.
The whole point is that the strongman owes us #nothing.
We get abused and we get used to it.Another illusion is that the strongman will unite the nation.
But an aspiring dictator will always claim that some belong and others don't.
He will define one group after another as the enemy.
This might feel good, so long as you feel that you are on the right side of the line.
But now #fear is the essence of life.
The politics of us-and-them, once begun, never ends.We dream that a strongman will let us focus on America.
But dictatorship opens our country to the worst the world has to offer.
An American strongman will measure himself by the #wealth and #power of other dictators.
He will befriend them and compete with them.
From them he will learn new ways to #oppress and to #exploit his own people.At least, the fantasy goes, the strongman will get things done.
But dictatorial power today is not about achieving anything positive.
It is about #preventing anyone else from achieving anything.
The strongman is really the weak man: his secret is that he makes everyone else #weaker.Unaccountable to the law and to voters, the dictator has no reason to consider anything beyond his own personal interests.
In the twenty-first century, those are simple: 👉 dying in bed as a billionaire.
To #enrich himself and to stay out of #prison, the strongman dismantles the justice system and replaces civil servants with loyalists. -

The good news, as we were reminded in Halifax, is that #Canada is close to being the least of the world’s problems. The bad news is that it also seems determined to become the least of the world’s remedies.

I'm still #NotConvinced that the #Fediverse is #TheFuture of #SocialMedia... #TheFuture is #TheFuture and #SocialMedia is just a #Vehicle... A #Vehicle in a #StateOfTransition; #PoweredByMetaphor; but, #IT's #Still #JustAVehicle...
#Meta is an #Irrelevance for #ThePurposes for which I use #IT; I #NeverUsed #Fakebook and still won't... The moment #Meta encroaches on #MyFeed in any way, there might well be an audible #KlunkKlunkKlunk noise...

#BlessHer, she had #KeptHold of ALL #MyJuniorSchool #Certificates; we've #LaughedHard at the #Scale of their #Irrelevance in #TheGrandSchemeOfThings
She was a #BitCross that #MyJuniorSchool didn't offer #Spanish as a #ChosenLanguage at #TheTime; but, as I remarked (at the #Time):
