People hugely underestimate how much transportation affects them except in these moments where a bunch of people are about to get it that didn’t before. Transportation is mobility and mobility is the spatial exercise of freedom.
Sounds funny today, but not long ago, the use of bicycles by women was considered *extremely* radical & dangerous--to be discouraged, even by supporters of women's right to vote.
All bc bicycles allowed women a tiny bit of freedom & mobility, without needing things a male guardian could withhold.

Suffragist and educator Frances Willard riding her bicycle, Gladys (because it made her glad).
“I learned to bicycle when 50... and I think it is one of the best things I ever did. What pleases me is to see other worn-out women take it up, and find a new lease of health and life thereby."

The amazing thing about the right's insanity around Obama is that he's genuinely still the most popular mainstream politician in the country. Like outside of the insane right, nobody actually views him as "divisive"

We might actually have to block the sun, like that might be the least bad option to total catastrophe. You know who I hope it's not up to? 25 people in a US-Israeli startup who will become the wealthiest people in history if the answer is yes!
Can we talk about the fact that there's a company that wants to block out the sun AND a company that wants to put mirrors in space so you can aim sunbeams in the middle of the night if you want to and I need EVERYBODY to quit torment-nexusing the sky?
A 25-person startup is developing technology to block the sun and turn down the planet’s thermostat.
The stakes are huge — and the company and its critics say regulations need to catch up.

I think we sometimes overthink what socialism would look like. The mechanisms of control developed for capitalist industry tuned to dials based on outcomes for public health, leisure time, and human flourishing would really cook.
Engagement KPIs have been responsible for infinite scroll UI traps, RecSys radicalization spirals, public shame brigades, and basically every modern ailment novel to the past decade. At some point, you have to recognize that the problem isn't any one technology, it's the metric.
The company essentially turned a dial that made ChatGPT more appealing and made people use it more, but sent some of them into delusional spirals.
OpenAI has since made the chatbot safer, but that comes with a tradeoff: less usage.
