9. Contacting a colleague

Instead of posting on the open web, I decided to contact a colleague I met Halloween 2011.
He is a unpredictable guy..another of the type of person in science you can usually trust-thorny, unpredictable, prickly, difficult but still essentially honest, non-transactional (a loathsome worldview) and pragmatic enough. And zero male creepiness. A somewhat uncertain tempered type, but well I am not sure I should cavil at that. But he is someone I can compare notes with as likeliest to get the science better and it is better than trolling Hennessy online.

I really hope he gets it whole and unedited. It hadn’t seriously occurred to me that for no real national security purpose and only to shill some silly game or something (sort of thing these…anyway)

Or yet again send it to a spam folder or screen it claiming totally dishonestly that I am a bot or some shit.
Total bs. Apparently i sound crazy or like a bot.
Awesome!
I am just indignant! I have rights!
I come off worse online..

Anyway, I am planning to file some complaints.

I don’t mind any sacrifice for truly good science as even I would agree-that meets all the spec-environmental, democratic, not insecure..but not for this junk ai and more bullshit.

So I am gearing up for conflict and cooperation-that is reality..not all one or the other. And specifics are important.

And well in so much kayfabe, it sounds beyond moronic and bogus: “I am a real person!”
Sounds exactly like something a not real person would say, hence the complaints since no one should have to put up with this much stupid shit.
It is why I like Yasha Levine so much. And Nathan Robinson..and the left I like. They were pragmatic but also really solid and tangible.

It is not like this shit where now Cheney and Bush criticize Trump. They are both war criminals.
So yeah. A microscope is a simple instrument.

This is a real world lab in a society broken beyond what I remember from even 2004. And that is not a simulation or whatever.

I try hard to avoid such dishonest bs.
This guy was the closest thing to Yasha Levine I came across in this hell..

Unless it is for a science or legitimate or security reason other than, hey lets continue to pretend that is a crazy lady.
No…I am an unpopular lady not a crazy lady..salt of the earth!!!
Eh..it is 2026, the general population (me anyway) is getting restive…

But jokes aside, one person is already dead (my mom), this ai shit is a fucking joke and killing better science or worse the web of life,



I doubt at this point that locally anyone will be awful about narcotics..that insane worldview on narcotics was a gift of the Brits.
What kind of insanity is it to object to English, but keep the insane Western drug war shit.

Its marijuana ffs not bloody Fentanyl..
Jeez
And some tacky and bloated gaming/sports/entertainment etc things in this deregulated way

It is also creepy. I owe it to my marijuana company and anyone I actually respect to not get held hostage by this lame kayfabe.

Come on. Besides yes I am well to the left..but this is the real world not media or politics.

You are all crazy! The kayfabe has driven everyone crazy which is why I sound crazy.
I am a martyr!

No..I did try and as of Feb 2026 I officially give up this pretense that any of this makes sense.
Your Immigration system is broken.

This hodgepodge of racial, gender and political tensions is cracked. I am not insipid. The sources I have on my profile are the least transactional and honest yet pragmatic people I can find.

It is as if I go on NWOMax!! toget my news or am paranoid or misandrist (i have constantly tried outreach to this easily riled up gender..come on..)
There is no need to destroy anything that functions to keep the junk.


And ;-/…I have no intention of being yet another roadkill type. I already lost my mom and 14.5 years..I am always wary of being in some ghastly thing.
This is for the DU community, any scientific community it could apply to (but not that nightmarish Pentland and Rosalind Picard and Aaron Elkins types) and the specific sources on my profile and anyone decent I engage with locally who should know.

India or the US this for the smallest possible group of not insane people because I am worried. This in no way has not worried me.

Anyway..hoping this works or I will be back ranting some more and then go offline to work on my paper and start the process of qyerying at any rate and I will be as nice as I can be, but I am sick of suffering fools, self serving opportunists and hideous shit
