#AntiGun

2024-01-05

good morning, enjoy a crime cat.

#TheCrimeCats say Kissinger lived to 100 because there aren't any good guys with guns, just people who don't mind giving their money to gun lobbies to maintain the fantasy that they can protect themselves using consumer grade firearms from a police force with access to military grade weapons and billions of dollars a year.

a crosseyed cat with its tongue out sits and thinks "if there are good guys with guns, why are there still so many politicians?"

@shrugdealer The fact that noone being "#AntiGun" seriously demands to #DisarmCops as well disqualifies mote of them instantly.

#introduction

I fight for the users.

I love programming and thinking and talking about thinking. I have an education (BS, MS, PhD) focused on artificial intelligence and neuroscience.

I'm an advocate of the public academic pursuit of knowledge, the scientific process, peer review, and I see open source software and hardware as an essential part of the scientific process.

I see software user rights, including security and privacy, to be protected mainly by free open source software, specifically software with a copyleft license, i.e. GPL or Mozilla.

I see the democratizing effects of the Internet, including distributed journalism and social networking, to be largely the effect of the collaborative development of free and open source software.

I am interested in free and open source manufacturing, including open source 3D printers and CNC machines. I believe open source manufacturing will be important for distributed manufacturing, allowing local manufacturing and local labor.

I see worker-owned coops as the way to safely transition from a non-democratic authoritarian top-down power structure of a traditional corporation to a democratic work environment, where the workers own the company and elect the board of directors, transitioning to democracy in the workplace.

I believe that socialism is a regulatory response to capitalism.

I believe that laws, money, corporations, and government are social agreements, and I'm in favor of democratic social agreements.

I believe in the organized non-violent boycott as a way to control capitalists and change corrupt systems.

I am a pacifist. I am against violence. I am against citizens keeping guns in cities and towns with children. I am against war.

I try to eat plant-based / vegan foods to boycott the animal industry, to help with the climate crisis, to improve my health, to avoid animal cruelty, and to avoid the extinction of species of plants, animals and ecosystems.

I have been diagnosed with Retinitus Pigmentosa, which is a disease of progressive retinal degeneration. I am legally blind, although I have about 5-degrees of vision remaining in my fovea. I'm interested in researching and developing BCIs (Brain-Computer Interfaces), specifically BCIs that function as vision prostheses that may help with conditions like RP, or the more common degenerative retinal disease AMD (Age-related Macular Degeneration).

I enjoy playing computer games like Age of Empires and Rimworld. I used to program computer games when I was younger and would like to get back to it one day.

I love playing music, especially bass guitar. I've been listening to a lot of Rage Against the Machine and Enya recently.

I enjoy reading books, mostly non-fiction.

I enjoy studying religions. I've found a lot of value in Buddhism, and I meditate often daily.

Nina and I have recently had our first baby, a boy we call Tyoma.

I'm currently working at Apple on the Vision Pro headset team.

I'm sober.

I'm and I lean left on almost every issue. I believe that was the biggest mistake the founding fathers ever made and is an abomination, but if there was ever a case to be made for , it's this:

You know, when your own government turns on you.

Absolutely spot on article: “If the white supremacy-soaked far right can no longer rule our nation, today’s Republicans are all too happy to blow it all up, in a world of mass shootings, insurrections, and unchecked pandemics. Their nihilism — wittingly or not — has turned them into a death cult.” inquirer.com/opinion/commentar

An #intro, if you please: I'm a 38 year old #disabled #writer and #podcast enthusiast living near #columbusohio. I have #type1diabetes, and have been medically disabled due to my #chronicillness since then. I'm not in a #wheelchair yet, thanks to #medication, but on bad days I use a cane. I have published one #horror novel, with definite plans for more in the future. I support almost all #lefty, #liberal causes, very pro #BLM, #LGBTQA, #prochoice, very #AntiFascist, very #antigun, #PRODEMOCRACY.
