Magical space-kitty! One of my photos of Squib deep-dreamed with one of my fractal renders and then pixelated. :D

Joke: The Dirac delta is a function.

Broke: The Dirac delta is not a real function.

Woke: The Dirac delta is a hyperfunction.

Upon obtaining your PhD, you basically know everything about nothing.

The expertise of recent PhD graduates can be adequately represented by a Dirac delta function.

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is a good name and an annoying name.

It's annoying in that in introducing the term it is unavoidably necessary to mention that's not about robots per se, but about software agents.

It's a good name because it conjures the image of people shaping and training agents as virtual robotic extensions of their own agency.

Perhaps even VR/AR tele-robotic (actual robots this time) control by means of software agents with embodied interfaces one might don to train them.

Chelsea Manning is a hero, and she's being released from prison tomorrow. I hope like hell that she can be free of further state violence.

Some shitty news is that she's still going to be an active duty service-person while she is appealing her conviction D: This article explains well why that puts her in further danger with the US Military court. It doesn't however mention that the danger is even higher now that she is being released in to Trump's America. I worry for her safety :S

Ugh. Why does the feminist movement have to be so overrun with TERFs, SWERFs, and tankies?

itd be cool to have 8 tongues, a few more arms, maybe 6 rows of teeth, and any prime number of eyes greater than 15

Album DOES contain blood, including scalpel work (and some jar-preserved organs), so heads up for that. Those pics are marked as Moderate Safety, not Safe.

I can't remember which fractals I've posted here and which ones I haven't, so here, have this one.

Great, they're booked for the rest of April, so I have to call them back when they start taking May appointments.

OK, I'm officially done waiting. I'm making an appointment with the local clinic tomorrow and starting HRT ASAP.
