This clarifies who is likely behind AARP paying a freelance health writer to serve up a bunch of unabashedly pro-AI short, ostensibly ‘friendly-info’ pieces in its magazine, direct hit on seniors

If nothing else works, they’ll keep killing us all with MORE pollution

I remember Bobby and Sheila were there from Santa Barbara and she started screaming “it’s an earthquake“ and I looked at the clock and I said “no that’s the 29 bus“ and two minutes later there was Jack’s mom on the phone.

I do like things from the parallel universes slipping in. Felt like a perfect time for it.

Yes. And maybe Wolven + Loaves can issue red stickers too. Design by @boursier.bsky.social, March 2022. One of those pandemic gifts that kept a bit of joy alive. Print still in good shape.

Craftsman and Wolves ups their sticker game

“[A 2022 study by Motoyasu Honma and colleagues at Japan’s Showa University] found that smartphone reading produced overactivity in the prefrontal cortex, suppressed sigh generation, and led to general lower comprehension scores;

so very fucking tired of watching one elderly dementia case wreck every single thing everywhere

The existence of non-subordinated women with college degrees has driven a substantial proportion of men completely fucking insane. It's not great.

the extent to which ""leftist"" thought leaders are adopting far-right language about hr ladies tells you a lot about what noosphere they're stewing in

the single biggest takeaway i have from this interview is that on top of being profoundly incompetent, bari weiss and her flunkies at CBS are genuinely terrible human beings. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/07/m...

When a single industry uses more power than entire countries, Texans deserve answers. The Corrupt Bigshots want the profits while local communities carry the burden. Let's protect Texas before the damage is done.

Claude has successfuly convinced me that it is unsafe to use for large projects. It reads skills / user instructions at the start of the session, but once the project itself is in context, there is enough pressure even with 1M context that it is reliably forgetting both the skills and instructions.

Data centers don’t just magically appear. Texas didn’t become the data center capital by accident. They go where politicians offer billion-dollar tax breaks, cheap power, weak regulations, and a giant welcome mat. If we’re serious about fighting these projects, follow the incentives.

I was driving behind this car today. I couldn’t resist snapping a picture.

Most shoppers never notice it, but the roof of my local ALDI is covered in #solar panels. Multiply that across 600+ stores and Australia's 3rd largest supermarket chain starts looking a lot like a distributed power company. The energy transition is happening in plain sight. ⚡🏪☀️ #Bettrification

"France passed a single law and instantly unlocked 11 gigawatts of #solarenergy — without using new land. In 2023, France's government mandated solar canopies over all car parks larger than 80 spaces. The scale was enormous: There are 400,000 parking areas across France #ActOnClimate #Renewables

Also, if you've read "The Curve of Time" this is nearby...

Motorized inflatable rubber raft with a very skilled pilot. The raft is hardly even touching the water, minimizing the drag. And he is piloting correctly, counter to the water's rotation. He's smart with the engine too, applying power at the right times to avoid the nose being dragged to the center.

Monterey Park,California, Has Voted To Ban Data Centers.......🎶

Also since I’m up, it’s a good time to remind folks that corporations aren’t people. Data centers don’t need charity - they need to pay their fair share.

So... large companies, business organisations & billionaires will pay for ad campaigns slamming this legislation... But they won't pay their employees a liveable wage... The 🌎 is absurd.

I said it in 2021, I've said it a bunch since, and I'll say it again now: You're not afraid of "killer AI" and "robot overlords," you're afraid of white supremacy, ableism, patriarchy, hegemony, extractivism, kyriarchy, and capitalism.

Four percent of the sand on Normandy beaches is shrapnel that has been broken down over the decades into sand-sized chunks. See the smooth sphere? It's shrapnel, sanded down to a smooth, microscopic ball. #WW2 #HISTORY

Electricity is about to get more expensive for data centers and other power-hungry industries served by Portland General Electric. The utility is raising rates on that class of users — and cutting them for others — because of a new state law. . www.opb.org/article/2026...

What a catastrophe. Hospitals that do this voluntarily are helping ensure future patients will not seek care anywhere. And who knows what it will mean for the patients directly affected. gothamist.com/news/nyc-par...

Old Warsaw Polish Smorgasbord. I’m sure if ever there was a place that nobody leaves hungry.

Put all federal taxes into escrow, in case we ever get an actual president again

The state of Maryland has passed a new law that allows residents to sue ICE-Gestapo agents for constitutional rights violations. Good, love this, all blue states should do the same.

“There may be.” FFS. Forget the flags. I have a literal masters degree in public health, I’m an actual union leader (in my second term as chapter president,) I’m a college professor, and a reproductive health advocate. And people are quibbling over if he abused his exes enough to be disqualifying.
