I made the critical error of watching a Russian production of The Nutcracker on YouTube.
Everything was lovely until they rolled out the Arabian dancers in head-to-toe brownface.

Another reason why fields like anthropology are important, contrary to growing opinion:
It’s a lot harder to get away w blowing away Venezuelan fishermen with missles if the general population has thought about countries and cultures other than theirs. It takes that fisherman from abstract to real.

The US aggression against Venezuela is naked imperialism. All pretext has been exposed as farce. An invasion would cause tens of thousands of deaths. Every sane person must oppose this madness.

This is an appreciation post for Drosselmeyer, the ultimate Cool Uncle and my favorite character in The Nutcracker.
We should all have a very cool and mysterious honorary uncle who spoils his nieces and nephews and also travels the globe going on wild adventures and sourcing enchanted toys.

Periodic reminder of the foods my microbiology professor warned us to not eat, or at least be vigilant about:
- produce that’s too delicate to be decently cleaned without ruining it (sprouts, raspberries, similar)
- produce with knobby texture that can hold bacteria (cantaloupe!)

In Georgia, the state has made "catastrophic" cuts at DHS, citing an $85 million deficit.
A provider described one result: a mom who relapsed last week. "Visits with her child were keeping her sober, but transportation services had been cut."
Georgia is sitting on a $14.6 *billion* budget surplus.

LITERALLY might be the best horror film I’ve ever seen. WOW. Wow.
No jump scares, gore, or screams.
You can watch it here with your phone, but it’s best on a bigger screen in a dark room.

Men use generative AI more than women (50% vs 37%).
Beware when a population that has outsized power relative to their outgroup (men, billionaires, etc.) flocks to something en masse. It’s about to be used to further disempower others.

AI boosters are fine with this. They're fine with the child porn, they're fine with the fascist slop, they're fine with the environmental damage and the unprecedented theft.
They're fine with all of it, because reading and writing their own emails is just too hard.

A boom of AI hallucinated content will (probably, IMHO, etc.) mean a subsequent hunger for authenticity and originality. If there’s nothing out there but code-generated crap, an interesting mind becomes more valuable.
