  1. It doesn't matter what stock market is doing if people can't eat, have a doctor, & pay for gas. Stock market is fantasy #Casino & been abused & #MissKitty delivered a plan using that sin market as a #solution provider for society. #Sovereign #Housing #Endowments. Here is what it costs to ignore me.

    I have called out the #ableism of the pure ubermensh before.
    To protestations "It's not!!!"

    #Ai has many problems, but like any technology, it has many benefits.
    One of which, and it will become more apparent as time passed, is #assistedliving

    In my lived experience, my cognitive power are fading.
    I am getting dumber. I know this.
    In 20 years time, if I live that long, I will struggle to make a coherent sentence.
    I've seen my future in my oldies.
    AI allows me to create work that I was not able to create since my 30s-40s.
    And it is creative work, because you guide the machine as you guide a lathe or a chisel.

    I can no longer pull a 3 day long crunch session fueled by coffee and ambition.
    I can no longer master a new framework or tool, because it takes me a very long time and is very hard.

    The young(er) Butlerian jihadists lack empathy and world experience.
    Not everyone is driving a cognitive Maseratti.
    Some of us are driving mopeds (or face other challenges as OP does)

    "Thou shal not use AI, and if you do, that makes you an evil broligarch fanboi",
    Is an ableist, unemphatic, elitist take, that is more telling on them, than it is on you.

    Especially in the days of #openweight and #sovereign models.

    "China orders no one is allowed to cooperate with @EUCommission's investigation into unfair state funding during the MediaMarkt take-over by JD .com (there are laws about foreign subsidization here)"

    No doubt that will make the EU waaay less suspicious :mastorofl::mastorofl::mastorofl:

  4. #MissKittyPolitics We say follow the #money. Okay so we are playing to our lowest common denominator doing that. But in that event, #Sovereign #endowments are the way to play nice with each other. The #math is 5th grade order of operations. The #stock #market is simple.

  5. #MissKittyPolitics State exists only to serve those reliant upon group services for economies of scale & #universal deployment. #Human #rights are the ONLY objectively correct ambition for society to achieve first. Then, a new horizon finally. Return #mothers to home. #Sovereign #Housing #Endowments

  6. #MissKittyRaw #God & #AI #Research to sublimate perpetual motion machine of usury into decency. @[email protected] #Sovereign #Housing #Endowments ARE the answer. I do not know the most about homelessness of anybody. I DO know the most about solving it of anybody. End #Homelessness Begin #Civilization

  7. Policies like #sovereign #housing #endowments have a strong correcting influence in a synergistic fashion. Achieving #revolutionary results without the bodies or the impossible #legislation. #SHEs make EVERYBODY money, even those that will balk because they are taking pay cut from milking that cow.

  9. "If the #WabanakiTribes were #sovereign, they would need to be consulted on every land-use decision that might impact their territory. Potential harms to human health, water and air quality, or plants and animals would be grounds for blocking commercial activity. The influential #MaineForestProductsCouncil lobbies for #timberland owners, #logging companies, and #mills, including Maine’s largest landowner, the Canada-based #JDIrving company, which controls 1.25 million acres in the state. It has also been one of the most forceful opponents of #TribalSovereignty, arguing that any additional regulatory hurdles would stifle economic activity in the #MaineWoods."

  10. #WabanakiStudies should be taught at all #MaineSchools

    OpEd by Hope Carroll, December 26, 2023

    "#Wabanaki history is ingrained across #Maine and has deep rooted cultural relationships with major natural landmarks that many of us see everyday. However, there is a concerning gap surrounding the important aspects of our state’s rich Wabanaki history and what little many students learn about it in Maine schools.

    "Wabanaki studies need to be consistently incorporated into all Maine school districts. According to a 2022 report done by the #AbbeMuseum, the #MaineACLU, the Maine Indian Tribal-State Commission and the #WabanakiAlliance, the Wabanaki studies law passed by Maine in 2001 is not appropriately enforced across the state.

    "The law 'requires schools to teach Maine K–12 students about Wabanaki territories, economic systems, cultural systems, governments, and political systems, as well as the Wabanaki tribes’ relationships with local, state, national, and international governments,' the report says.

    "The Portland public school system recently incorporated a Wabanaki studies program into its curriculum. This will hopefully be a good example for other districts across Maine and encourage them to do the same.

    "Teaching Wabanaki studies will help children gain a better understanding of the state. In time, this can help them develop a closer relationship with the #land and our responsibility to ensure that it is cared for and treated with respect.

    "'Through #traditional stories representing the terrestrial and aquatic systems, important [Wabanaki] values are imparted that safeguard culturally significant resources from overuse and ensure the persistence of the people and culture,' says Natalie Michelle, interdisciplinary studies and research assistant of native environmental studies in climate change at the University of Maine.

    "It is more important than ever that we look to native science as we face irreversible damage to our climate. We must prioritize implementing these ideals early into the educational careers of children so they go on to practice them throughout their lives.

    "Western science and education has taught the ideals of dominance over nature for centuries. This is reflected in practices that have contributed to the #extinction of animals, rises in #NaturalDisasters, food and water shortages and the numerous other effects of #ClimateChange. Instead of connecting with #nature, we are often taught to distance ourselves from the #NaturalWorld. We are taught to use vague and nonspecific naming tools like 'it' to refer to any non-human being.

    "'We use it to distance ourselves, to set others outside our circle of moral consideration, creating #hierarchies of difference that justify our actions — so we don’t feel,' says Robin Kimmerer, professor of environmental and forest biology at the State University of New York College of #EnvironmentalScience and #Forestry.

    "Kimmerer talks of alternatives to using 'it' to put ourselves on the same level as other living beings, recognizing them as relatives by calling them by their name. But she says that this can be difficult for many of her students because they were not taught these alternatives until now.

    "In my experience growing up in Maine and going to school, I never encountered a class focused on Wabanaki studies until college. I am grateful to have this opportunity now. But it has been difficult for me to implement these new ideals into my thinking toward the land around me because they seem so foreign.

    "Using the word 'foreign' seems wrong when describing ideals that have been used in Maine since long before any of us were here. But Maine schools and communities have an opportunity to change this.

    "Children who grow up in this state have the right and responsibility to know the history of the land around them. They have the right and responsibility to understand the negative implications of #colonization and #ForcedRemoval of the #WabanakiTribes and how despite horrible #historical events, the Wabanaki people have endured and developed their own #sovereign structures.

    "In order to create more inclusive classrooms that incorporate all aspects of our state history and work towards building respectful relationships with Maine land, other communities should follow the exciting example being set in #PortlandMaine."
