My old pal @eniiler.bsky.social with a killer story. What we save defines us as a culture—the archive is our memory and our future. And we’re throwing it away? Madness.

It’s novelty music and it’s mediocre even at that. The man ain’t even Weird Al.

The thing is, a lot of people are desperate for the consumption of revolution — the beads, a wicked new album, a chant — without actual revolution. but you can’t manufacture that from pure consumption like this.

will also add - yes, this is my personal crusade - that turning podcasts into videos implicitly asks women to once again make more effort than men, as the bar for "camera-ready" for one gender is obviously higher than for the other

Also, of course, the State Department changing typefaces for reasons that boil down to "fuck accessibility" is both utterly in line with the overt bigotry of this administration and a signal indicator of how unserious these people are, it doesn't matter what typeface you use when you're a joke

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

I also meet a lot of active, happy, engaged seniors. I love asking them what their secret is, and it's always two things:

1: Stay moving. At a certain you either stretch or walk daily or you can't move. Start NOW.

2: Sometimes to care about. Garden. Grandkids. Pets. Doesn't matter.

Every use-case people think they "need" and LLM for is actually papering over a different issue. The teacher using ChatGPT to write narrative reports bc the demand is unreasonable & overwhelming *actually* needs more support and/or compensation or a reduction of demand. It's a LABOR issue.
