Normalize making out with your gay friends, for Patrick.
Vou ser sincero com vocês: até algumas horas atrás, eu achava que Patrick Stewart fizesse parte da comunidade LGBTQ+. Via frequentemente fotos dele trocando selinhos com Ian McKellen e até imaginava que pudesse existir algo além de uma grande amizade entre os dois. Para minha surpresa, ao pesquisar mais sobre sua vida, descobri que não. Patrick Stewart era heterossexual e foi casado três vezes, sempre com mulheres. E os selinhos? Eram apenas uma demonstração pública de afeto e carinho por Ian, que é assumidamente gay e um dos seus melhores amigos. Mas o mais importante nunca foi o gesto em si. O verdadeiro significado estava no fato de Patrick usar sua imagem, como um dos atores mais respeitados de Hollywood, para apoiar a comunidade LGBTQ+ de forma aberta e natural. Patrick Stewart não tinha uma masculinidade frágil e nunca precisou provar sua heterossexualidade para ninguém. Não se preocupava com o que pensavam ou diziam a seu respeito. O que realmente importava para ele era ajudar a construir um mundo mais tolerante e acolhedor. Um mundo em que seu grande amigo Ian McKellen, e toda a comunidade LGBTQ+, pudessem viver com dignidade e paz. Sir Patrick Stewart foi, sem dúvida, um homem à frente do seu tempo.

Btw I’m single and I go to events alone a lot. You should, too! I’m 43 and into things like hyperpop. If I waited around for a mom friend or straight boy to go with me to shows I’d be waiting until I’m dead. Do things you love! ❤️

anyone still holding on tightly to the materialist framework of reality is gonna have an extremely disorienting time over the next few years

Update: Get fucked Aella
Replying to @kitten_beloved
I gave the article a re-read and there was a sentence which stated that big lab employees, rather than EA dorks writ large, attended particular sex parties, which was speculation on my part I've corrected that sentence, which was an oversight, mea culpa xitter.gq/Aella_Girl/status/2115…

Ultra successful people typically cancelled all backup career options when they were younger. These people will quit a high-paying job, drop out, sell their apartment or sacrifice life's comforts in the pursuit of success. Society will judge you for making a reckless decision, but in our experience, the ones who kept the backup option to become a consultant or join a big company almost always took it, usually 2yrs in when the work got boring. People with a backup option live as two people: the version doing the work and the version that exists if you quit. This split personality means you only put 50% of your maximum mental effort into the risky option. To be world-class at anything, you have to set fire to the boat and bridge behind you.

This type of transparency is great. On every other platform you’re just left guessing about what’s affected
Under the Hood now shows you which posts received a visibility-limiting label, making it easier to see what’s affected: xitter.gq/i/jf/under_the_hood This was a top request — thanks for the feedback. You’ll see the specific posts listed when fewer than 5% of your posts during the report period have that label.

Last week, we launched a more organized project trying to investigate discrimination, harassment, and sexual harassment within the AI safety professional space. I'm so excited to share that Lotte, People Ops Lead at FLI, has now joined the project! (In a fully personal capacity)

the industry needs a cypherpunk renaissance, not crypto cosplayers who think cypherpunk is "number go up, i don't care how"
this is what happens when an industry indexes on being 'cracked' and leetcode grinders vs people with holistic experience in operations and policy

hearing that a compromised employee laptop was enough to gain access to hot wallets of an exchange of binance's size is beyond unbelievable and reckless.
