I saw this tweet 20 minutes after taking a dime sized glob of RSO and had to do it 🤣
No AI involved so please do not bash me to hell in the replies 🙏😭

TheShy Weibo Post:
Hello everyone, I am TheShy, Kang Seung-lok.
Unfortunately, our journey in this World Championship ends here. In today's match, the opposing team did many things better than us, and I will also seriously reflect on my own shortcomings.
I want to thank -

my beautiful infant daughter has discovered she can make a sound exactly like the gasping death rattle of a poisoned lich, and uses it extensively when displeased, such as when I don't let her scratch my eyes

cameras, more training, a database of bad actors, 'safer' 'less lethal' weapons
this is all increasing funding for the police.
take their budgets away if we can't outright get them banned.

For non-artists this is why Nomura said:
"Don't assume your dreams are just fantasy. If you can imagine a world, believe in it… and dive in."
You have to have this strong delusion to create and keep creating and growing

I voted in a way that should prevent me from seeing Mr. Beast filling a pool with slime for a Google Gemini commercial during college football. And I feel the rest of the country voted the same way

The debate over wearing respirator masks is so old & tiresome. It's scientific fact that they work well at blocking airborne viral particles from being inhaled. It's a remarkable technology that we're fortunate to possess, that for millennia our ancestors would have loved to use.

About 80% of the people that were fired in our department this year have been rehired 💀
The AI layoff gamble is backfiring.
Companies that rushed to replace workers with AI are now cleaning up the mess, per The Guardian.
Meta scaled back plans to cut staff and use more AI agents after employees spent growing time cleaning up the agents’ technical and security errors. It’s now rehiring managers.
Microsoft and McKinsey are limiting employee AI use as costs pile up.
Walmart workers say AI scheduling and task tools set impossible standards and generate false alerts.
The payoff isn’t showing up: 90% of executives say AI hasn’t yet boosted productivity at their companies, per an Atlanta Fed working paper.
Yet more than 112,000 US job cuts this year have cited AI, per Challenger, Gray & Christmas.

Housekeepers have become one of the most dangerous jobs on the planet since Covid started, and the comments under this post read like a quiet horror movie nobody is acknowledging.
A cleaner said a client who was sick followed her around the house the whole time, getting close, talking.
3 days later she tested positive.
“I will never understand why some people suddenly get cuddly when they are sick.”
One client let them come to clean before mentioning her daughter had just gone to the hospital by ambulance.
Housekeeper said,”I probably passed Covid to a lot of people because of this. Plus... my Dr kept telling me I had bronchitis."
Another asked clients to PLEASE tell her if sick, so they started HIDING it. She kept finding "kids cough medicine, thermometers and Covid tests around the house."
Her takeaway: "I am really cautious when I clean for people who have kids."
"The baby was sick. Was there on a Wednesday. By Thursday night I was down. Stayed down for 5 days."
“Yes. I've been given Covid a few times.”
One had a client who waited until she got there to say she was sick and announces: "STREP THROAT AND BRONCHITIS!!"
Housekeeper said "I wanted to leave so bad!! Why would you have me clean your home if you are sick!!"
She stayed. Got "Strep."
These days, a housekeeper called to a house isn't called to clean. A housekeeper is called to get Covid instead.
