The Google AI isn’t hallucinating about glue in pizza, it’s just over indexing an 11 year old Reddit post by a dude named fucksmith.

15 years ago, the Greens started warning that we needed to start preparing and planning the transition from coal to renewable energy.

The Libs responding by gaslighting and saying things like “You can’t shut down coal energy overnight!”, something the Greens were in no way shape or form asking for.

The media simply quoted the Libs. Their excuse? “We WeRe JuSt TeLlInG yOu WhAt ThEy SaId!”. Never quoted what the Greens actually wanted, or actually analyzed the situation, just QuOtEd WhAt ThEy SaId! The Liberals and those talking complete and utter horse shit. While burying their heads in the sand about energy transition.

Now, we’re in a situation where coal plants are shutting down ahead of the 15 years ago schedule, renewable sources have been delayed massively, and many don’t have power lines heading to them nor are connected to the grid properly. We are in the EXACT problem situation the Greens were warning about 15 years ago.

The media won’t take responsibility for their one-sided citing and TeLlInG yOu WhAt ThEy SaId. They’ll just write articles pretending that never happened, glossing over their part in it.

We’re in for hard times. All caused by the Liberal governments of the last 15 years. And Labor especially now aren’t exactly any better. And caused by the media failing to do their actual jobs.

Fedizens, a little about my #FediVision2024 entry: it’s called “In the Wind,” and you can hear it here until Sunday https://fedivision.party/#ODTH (or listen on https://radiofreefedi.net). It’s also on bandcamp! https://bittersweetdb.bandcamp.com/track/in-the-wind-fedivision-2024-edit

It’s a 6/8, 90 bpm instrumental with synths, distorted/feedback guitar and drony vocals. My guitar is a custom Crowfoot Electric by @Splitcoil, and you should check him out!

Reviewing #Fedivision is daunting, an endeavour that’s taking days, but it’s really satisfying to listen carefully to each song and write something about it.

Over half way now…

Managed to listen to a dozen #fedivision tracks and I found that about a third resonate with me the right way.
Which means I'm likely gonna end up with a 24-track "shortlist" (ahah) that I'll have to whittle down to three.

People, please stop being so talented, will you?
