    Religions need to be rebooted. How many times are they in the news for abuse of power, inappropriate behavior, disputes over land and their rules, and their influence on politics and government? Too many, if you ask me.

    It’s not a bad thing to regularly get people together, form community, and care for each other. They just need to get with the times, man.

    Suggestions:

    • don’t shun “non-believers”
    • stop touching children
    • don’t kill people for inappropriately invoking your God’s name or image
    • focus less on afterlife and more on the present
    • don’t try to keep people stupid, the Internet exists and once they find out you’ll lose them forever
    • don’t go full zealot on cherry-picked texts while completely ignoring other ones to make arguments.
    • don’t be a dick
    • have checks on power, money, and influence
    • ain’t no one got time to read tomes






  • I used it extensively to help me code my PHP for an art portfolio site. Briefly thought about using 11ty but needed to put something up quick after being laid off and I knew PHP.

    For the most part it was good. It was really good at creating simple functions for me. My issue came when I asked it to build me a JS lightbox in Bootstrap. i wanted it to look a certain way so I had to edit my prompt multiple times because it would edit the code and “forget” my previous modification. Ended up using someone else’s JS code.

    It was incredibly frustrating. It’s powerful, but still limited.
