The missing/replaced music on the Peacock stream of Homicide: Life on the Street is so awful. OMG. 😢

I rented this movie as a teenager knowing nothing about it and I still sometimes think about it. So weird and unsettling.
On this day in Canadian Horror History, PIN premiered in Montréal in 1988.

"When Prophecy Fails" is gripping, an in-depth social study that has served as a key basis for the psychological concept of cognitive dissonance.
But a new study that examines the unsealed papers of one of the book's authors claims that Prophecy leans on lies and serious manipulation.

It’s one of the most influential social psychology studies ever. Was it all a lie?
A classic book on UFO believers and their "cognitive dissonance" after aliens failed to land is called into question.

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. 🧪

I finished reading this recently. A tale of obsession & creepiness. The majority of the characters are deeply odd/repulsive, it veers a little too closely to Dark Matter but never quite hits (a high benchmark though). Apparently Michelle Paver had a block so she’s done well to produce this. So so.

important to realize just how seriously feelings of powerlessness in the face of vast structures & a learned understanding of the futility of individual effort are generational givens that anybody my age or older (work hard! succeed! things work out!) has no way to fully grasp—but we need to try
Young people feel like we've lost agency over our lives. We can't *really* pick where to live, or whether to change jobs, or how many kids to have -- the cost of living makes us feel trapped.

Nothing else is quite like the feeling of running into a gonzo paragraph like this one.
![A screenshot which reads:
"Inspired by Theosophical lore and several visiting Mongol lamas, Gleb Bokii, the chief Bolshevik cryptographer and one of the bosses of the Soviet secret police, along with his writer friend Alexander Barchenko, embarked on a quest for Shambhala, in an attempt to merge Kalachakra-tantra and ideas of Communism in the 1920s. Among other things, in a secret laboratory affiliated with the secret police, Bokii and Barchenko experimented with Buddhist spiritual techniques to try to find a key for engineering perfect communist human beings.[17] They contemplated a special expedition to Inner Asia to retrieve the wisdom of Shambhala – the project fell through as a result of intrigues within the Soviet intelligence service, as well as rival efforts of the Soviet Foreign Commissariat that sent its own expedition to Tibet in 1924."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ekew4wtc2m4ctroumek7kr4l/bafkreidabk6ljvos3wdgnum2ao7enwzc46kdkcxc2afw5ahfchncacn5tm@jpeg)
