A Bike With No Handlebars: Mary Sue, what are you?... →
“So, there’s this girl. She’s tragically orphaned and richer than anyone on the planet. Every guy she meets falls in love with her, but in between torrid romances she rejects them all because she dedicated to what is Pure and Good. She has genius level intellect, Olympic-athelete level athletic ability and incredible good looks. She is consumed by terrible angst, but this only makes...

UN Hearing On AI Rights →
jephjacques:
The subject of this debate is whether AIs are “people-” whether they possess the same degree of personhood as humans, and whether that entitles them to the same rights.
You have heard all the arguments for and against the consciousness, intelligence, free will, and cognition of artificial…

07 December 2011
Far from being harmless or ironic fun, lads’ mags could be legitimising hostile sexist attitudes, according to new research.
Psychologists from Middlesex University and the University of Surrey found that when presented with descriptions of women taken from lads’ mags, and comments about women made by convicted rapists, most people who took part in the study could not...

So...
Once upon a time, there was a little girl, and she was kidnapped by faeries.
They left one of their own kind in her place, one of their rejected children disguised as a mortal. Surrounded by iron, she would live no longer than any mortal. Her wings were pressed against her spine, her fingers ground down to little stubs, her eyes dimmed and her ears stuffed with cotton.
They left her, alone and...

Dizzy, dizzy me. Dunno what to do. What I want to do.
I drown in you. Happily drowning, such glorious little deaths… I didn’t know I could be so happy. Feel so precious.
That realization also crushes me.
It begs questions. Why wasn’t I happy before? What… what happened? What went wrong? Where does the love go?
Will you eventually tire of me too? Unsubscribe, as it were?...
