Don't drink and drive. Just don't fucking do it.

Inner monolog while reading his later books, "Ugh, another sex scene. Skip ahead. They're still doing it? Keep skipping. Really? Still at it? This could be used to encourage celibacy. Finally, plot! Dammit, they're fucking again!"

If you like Stranger Things then you should probably not read this thread.
My current biggest gripes with S4:

1. The Sinclair sibs kicking parallel butt in E1 should have been paralleled in V2. It would've created a nice bookend to the season for my favourite characters!

They used to let weird people do low budget interesting things on television, and it led to what you consider in retrospect to be cultural institutions. Nostalgia can never let you experience it anew, or create anew. You have to support weird people doing low budget interesting things on television.

Ah yes, a voicemail from the hospital telling me to call back (sounding urgent) only for them to tell me they're going to send a reply to my email in the next 15-20 minutes.

It's giving that scene in Hitch: "You called to tell her you're at lunch?? 🤨"

'We voted no more Welcome to Country!' oh sweet summer child, you very much did not do that.

If you do not give people the formal right to speak, don't be surprised when they start to shout.

A highly reflective area at the base of Mars's southern polar ice cap hinted at the potential presence of liquid water. But new radar measurements suggest there may be another explanation. New research in #AGUPubs by scientists at @psi.edu & colleagues.

A “very large roll” of a radar instrument offers new insight into a highly reflective area near the Martian south pole.

Big believer in the right to die but had a turnaround there seeing how was being used in Canada. Not until we have healthcare for all and UBI that is more than mere survival level support is my position now.

I will be the first to admit I couldn’t understand why anyone would oppose Assisted Dying… and then I became disabled and had it “offered” to me.

It’s not compassionate when there’s coercion.

It’s not dignified when it’s offered in lieu of care.

Listen to disabled people.

Journalist challenge: Use “Machine Learning” when you mean machine learning and “LLM” when you mean LLM. Ditch “AI” as a catch-all term, it’s not useful for readers and it helps companies trying to confuse the public by obscuring the roles played by different technologies. 🧪

Translation tip:

Some languages put "quotes" for street or building names.

Not English: names in quotes otherwise denote a nickname or it's unofficial.

Small details like these can shift meaning more than you'd think.

Always use the target language's punctuation in translation.

A lot of people condemned Dr. Osborne, but I say it's easy to criticize until you've walked a mile in another man's shoes made out of another man.

People who still use twitter, you help all of this along.

Be so cool if you guys stopped.
Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.

My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.
