Wife just got back from a 3-day doctors conference and she told me that one of the keynote speakers mentioned AI during his presentation and the doctors in the audience booed. Loudly. Someone tell that Google CEO it's not just college kids who hate this shit.

A blanket of flowering saxifrage mantles the surface of an old oak in the woods. The magic of an Irish rainforest.

Ok so they are just making it legal to kill women? It has not even been a year, bro.

Hey remember when Trump said he didn’t know what Project 2025 was and the super serious mainstream media swallowed it? 😕🤷🏼

How is this stuff getting worse???

Illinois will have one of the strongest AI safety laws in the nation once I sign the legislation.

Absolutely shocking how easy this is.

You don't need a severe case to develop #longCOVID. The research shows it can follow a mild infection. Multiple reinfections. In some cases, an infection the patient never knew they had. 🎧 https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/critically-speaking/id1463016517 @grachstephanie.bsky.social

Critically Speaking Podcast: "Dr. Stephanie Grach: Long COVID" 'In this episode, Therese Markow and Dr. Stephanie Grach discuss the emergence and impact of Long COVID. Dr. Grach explains that Long COVID affects an estimated 18 million Americans...' podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/d...

Is #LongCovid going away? Data show it is not. In a cohort study with 457.950 Covid cases, 1 in 6 patients developed Long Covid. Prevalence is 13-23% of US population, increasing 0.4%-1.5% every 3 months. Cases remained stable through 2022 but started to increase in late 2023.

Wasn’t this cage fight situation an Onion article at some point in the past?

Vanilla Ice steps up to the mike as the only performer left for America 250. He does a 90 minute set that’s just him yelling “get it? ICE?” In between rounds of Ice, Ice Baby

Thinking about Ira Glass’ famous clip about the work it takes to bridge the gap between having good taste and making work *you* think is good in light of A.I. And a possible generation of creators that will be lost because they’ve been sold a “shortcut” that is a dead end. youtu.be/X2wLP0izeJE?...

AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH

It would be so cute if anyone understood airborne transmission six plus years into an airborne pandemic. Got more blank stares about the mask at a medical appointment today. “It’s your choice to wear the mask or not, you don’t have to.” Yup, I’m wearing the mask ON PURPOSE. My choice is mask. 😷

Did Something Happen In The Last Six Years That Could Have Caused A Decline And Loss Of Energy Everywhere? Anything? Anything At All? No. We Couldn’t Think Of Anything Either. Lockdowns, I guess.

The waits between seasons doubled in last 10 yrs — & this piece doesn’t get into it, but when execs also demand shorter seasons, in some cases way too short, the end result = audiences that just don’t engage with shows/characters the same way. www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/w...

Boots Riley is resolute in his belief that AI proponents and studio heads who say that gen AI is the future of filmmaking are simply lying. Read the full interview from @charlespulliam.bsky.social: www.theverge.com/entertainmen...

When you are getting the hard sell for anything, you are usually in the process of getting ripped off. Keep that in mind re: AI.

I wrote about Elon Musk's attack on Lupita Nyong'o, and how it is important to put that in the context of the fact that Musk launched an actual ongoing genocide against non-white people which has already killed hundreds of thousands. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/musk-attac...

In the end we were just his latest casino and whatnot.

the Panem of it all is so wild

The right-wing does not have “less infighting” and they certainly do not have “more fun.” What they have is more funding.

Hantavirus Exposure During Quarantine Doesn't Count, Say Officials

Some 200 current and former journalists, academics, documentary filmmakers, and press freedom organizations are organizing to oppose the Paramount merger and where it's taking CNN, and CBS. www.status.news/p/david-elli... I understand that letters aren't a mighty force. Still, I'd sign this one.

Good.

Went to an anti AI datacentre protest march today and a friend of mine got a picture that summed it all up

This sign that just reads “FUCK YOU” at an anti data center protest is pretty spot on. bsky.app/profile/cool...

They stole the internet’s knowledge and all the work that went into it and they want to sell it back to us for a fee. What a business model.

Learned recently there's a whole subculture of halal BBQ joints in texas, originally because Texas's quite-large Muslim population couldn't eat at ones that also prepared pork, but now it's a whole thriving culinary niche. Real "glorious American melting pot" stuff

LLMs could never.

I once trotted the Nat Turner fact in a conversation about white supremacist violence snd even my colleagues were like “what the fuck, Flowers.” Y’all don’t know the depths of the depravity of colonizers.

I keep hearing people say “masking is politicized” but I don’t understand it. It was politicized, early in the pandemic, when democrats somewhat embraced it and republicans rejected it as a symbol of the left. ….but then almost all democrats also rejected it?

I will go so far as to say it’s one of the two parties strongest areas of agreement right now.
