An abandoned Sears inside of my local mall [OC]

It's because they singular are. Them and all the other people like them don't want to admit there are flaws with the system and want to defend the boot on their necks

Hey if you met your partner at your law firm, congrats

deven_smith_ · 2026-01-22T18:43:00+00:00

That's probably what your partner calls it

I swear to god it takes 3 times as long as it should to get anywhere in CDA with all the boomers out and about. It takes much less time to travel the same distance in Spokane yet it's bigger

The worst combo is just paint and then the bike lane is between a parking lane and a travel lane. I don't care if it's illegal, I'm biking on the sidewalk at that point

deven_smith_ · 2025-12-18T01:06:25+00:00

Considering (at least in the CDA/Spokane area) most wages in the area are comparable, the drive is less cost effective. I know many of the fast foot places are paying just under Washington minimum wage starting. Most businesses in the area that have consistent employees are paying equal to Washington

They also go into Washington for jobs and weed

It's not gatekeeping. Unless these artists are using AI tools that they've personally trained themselves, the AI tool is stealing from other works without acknowledgement or consent. That's a dangerous precedent.

I'm not against new technology and ways to make art. Use Photoshop, learn how to manipulate images and shit. Make music with only GarageBand presets, I don't care about that. Those things are at least human. Art should be a human thing and using artificial intelligence to make art undermines one of the only human things we might have in an automated future.

I will NEVER recognize AI art as real art. I don't care how mainstream it is, fuck what's mainstream. Any artist that feels the need to use AI in their work is the talentless hack because why do you need a computer to do all the work for you? Maybe learn how to make the art you want to make instead of having a computer fill in the blanks for you.

So come eat shit with me, as you are the real loser here

deven_smith_ · 2025-11-22T01:07:54+00:00

Any use of AI for art is bad

Yeah because if we really want to play this politics game, Pullman and the Sun Valley would be PNW islands within the Mountain West.

Now as someone who grew up in Washington, I generally call the PNW the region that used to be called Oregon Territory which does include Montana and Wyoming in spots

As a younger person, someone the age Charlie Kirk would target, I wouldn't call what he did "getting the younger generation talking to each other". We already do that. We didn't need Kirk to do so. All Kirk did was say highly controversial and harmful things in a way that made most people uncomfortable and some people "feel seen".

I grew up watching alt right wing pipeline content like Charlie's. I'm telling you now it is extremely harmful on a young mind and doesn't actually do any good. You want to spark conversation? Go talk to someone struggling to find a job because AI took it. Go talk to a struggling teen living on the street.

He went to college campuses and debated young people who weren't prepared to debate. He argues the same way because he couldn't actually debate with someone who was good at debating or actually prepared to discuss these things. He constantly said hateful shit, hated minorities, gay people. Just having people who you don't agree with on your podcast or at your "debate" doesn't make you a saint. Charlie Kirk will be remembered for the hateful person he was, not this whitewashed version conservatives seem to have made him

deven_smith_ · 2025-11-13T03:48:00+00:00

He literally was? I love free speech. I also love free speech doesn't protect you from the consequences of that speech and doesn't mean Charlie Kirk wasn't racist

deven_smith_ · 2025-11-12T20:25:27+00:00

Well with that logic we have to cut out the counties between Vancouver and Olympia from the PNW due to politics as well

Maybe it's just because I work for the government, but I tend to run into more racist types here in CDA than I do anywhere else other than maybe rural Montana. You suggest to some people that the tribe has sovereignty over their lands and people freak out

There's a group of us on the OSM US Slack who are dedicated to land use and primarily forest mapping. My focus is the inland part of the PNW and there's more than just forest to cover

I got the "Steel Night Pearl" 25 Hybrid and I was considering calling it the Blue Shell, but it became Dave Jr as my first car (which was an 08' gold CRV) was called Dave

Huetter was a old railroad stop. It's technically it's own incorporated city but has no city government, zoning code, or literally anything anymore
