I keep seeing a repeat discourse regarding AI, the "revealed preference" argument. Someone says "AI is liberating because I use it to automate boring work and build something quickly". They generalize from personal experience therefore this tech is revolutionizing everything for everyone else too.

Psst. Hey, come closer. No, closer. I have a New Year’s secret for you. It’s this: If you care about people you don’t even know, and try to live your life that way, you are absolutely beautiful no matter what you look like.

It’s insane that Pierce Hawthorne wasn’t actually Chevy Chase acting.

Men doing this whole “I will vanquish continents for my children” LARP is so goofy in the context of household surveys. It’s nice you’ll kill millions for your daughter, maybe we can start at doing a load of laundry for your wife who does the vast majority of household labor?

I've waited 3 years to make this post

Very sad to say it seems Mike Fossey, aka Mike F. has died. Truly one of the funniest posters of all time and a talented artisan. Had been friends online for many years, but I got to hang out a couple times at shows in Boston and he was funny and sweet in real life too.

Joseph Weizenbaum built a much cruder therapy chatbot 60 years ago and was troubled by how many people imputed genuine emotional understanding to it. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ELIZA_e...

Wrote about how disappointing it is that Jon Stewart punched down on people masking at @motherjones.com, when people should mind their own business and leave mask wearers be. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up. I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

I feel like we’ve gone quite a few rounds of “this guy is unfortunately not the guy you want him to be,” and it never really sticks.

We see what you did there, Pluribus.

Can any EE’s out there explain why a number of gadget’s I’ve opened recently have a USB-C charging port but will only charge if using a USB-A to USB-C cable? If this is a voltage limitation I thought C had better power control and could easily charge anything that charges over A.

Songs don’t save the world. They save people. …And people do the rest.

"It is logically impossible to simultaneously be evil, corrupt, and incompetent" is an absolutely amazing take to have in the year of 2025

Only a matter of time until a UC Berkeley law professor writes a memo justifying torture, a brave Vanity Fair writer gets tortured to say whether it hurts, and we have a national discussion about whether certain people should be tortured for our safety.

my unpopular opinion is that #adoption is not an alternative to abortion. And it is certainly not a solution to the lack of access to safe and affordable abortions. Compelling vulnerable people to relinquish their own children by ignoring their material needs is just another way to oppress them.

Mr. Beast, all my friends and I were saying how good at boxing you’d be

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans. 🧵 1 of 9

"megachurches are shen yun for white people" is an incredible and damning true statement

it isn’t Christmas until Grace Jones has danced for Pee-Wee

this is a good reminder of how things that are shitty but have been accepted as normal and inevitable can actually turn out to be abnormal and evitable with some science, time, education and political will

Guess I'll post this again

We can do even more.

periodically I'll see a backlash that goes a little too far or seems kinda unfair. i never say anything because i think we need to be kinda unhinged and zealous in our response to this shit. I'd take an honest-to-God crusade against this stuff over letting it proliferate.

Help us get “Lullaby” to number 1 before Christmas! An incredible group of UK & Palestinian musicians came together to release this song. All of the profits will go to Palestine Children's Relief Fund and Palestine Medical Relief Service, among others. linktr.ee/T4Plive

The cis people not standing between them and trans people are not my friends and never will be. You don't just owe them your acceptance, you owe them your support and love, and we see your silence and won't forgive you.
