When you're a kid and everything is bad, you run away from home. Grace Cather just did, crashing the weirdest club in LA, finding a group of girls to hang with and a house to stay in.
Only that house has been waiting for someone just like her.
My Gifts Are Hungry, crowdfunding soon.

Jaywalking in the United States is a made up "crime" that was literally a psyop campaign....
funded by automakers
because their cars were killing pedestrians
So they turned it back around on the victims. "Jay" was a negative slang at the time for someone who was a gullible rural person.

I'm not especially opposed to driverless cabs, but I'm fucked if I'm giving up my ancestral British right to cross the road anywhere if it's safe for me to do so. "Jaywalking" isn't a thing or a crime here, techbros, so your magic cars will have to learn to deal with that.
Politics London discussing driverless taxis casually referring to “jaywalking pedestrians”.
Jaywalking is not a thing in UK law.
Transport for London and Government had better not be asleep at the wheel on this.

I understand why people are doing it but I do not care for the Richard Hanania screenshots. If I cared what the nasty son of Nicolas Cage's character from Longlegs was up to, or thought about current events, I would have written the worst screenplay of all time addressing that very question.

This is actually a good test case for my firm but quiet conviction that most executive-level business decisions are based on nothing at all, and a company might as well roll dice and save itself a $350,000 a year salary

Sadly though, a committed cast and haunting score can only do so much to distract from the film's terribly cheap looking, comically treacherous roads, and a bridge so poorly constructed I spent the whole scene genuinely worried it may collapse under these trucks.

The deal was: they demagogue about “illegal aliens,” they militarize the border, they deport people who get reported by their bosses… but they don’t actually go looking for undocumented workers at farms, in kitchens, or on job sites. It was there to discipline labor, not create a shortage of it.

It's exactly this. Musk never gets called on the fact that he's been 10 years out from a moon colony for the last 16 years; Republicans never get called on anything; why wouldn't CEOs start testing out this new accountability-free zone and just say whatever's convenient to manipulate the moment?
I work in procurement and our vendors have been rolling out AI systems and... it has been a disaster. The AI gets everything wrong and I have to navigate a labyrinthian telephone menu to get to a human to fix it.
This has big "We'll colonize the moon in 10 years!" Musk energy.

Checking these dinner reservations we've made to see if any restaurants require or encourage a jacket and even the websites' opening videos show patrons wearing baseball caps at the table. I might as well show up wearing a court sword and opera pumps.

Everyone got their marching orders in the group chat and you can look forward to oddly content-free "why is the left irrational?" posts and thinkpieces for the next two weeks
I confess I do not understand why “the left should prepare for the worst case scenario with AI and jobs” seems to have elicited such a strong negative reaction bsky.app/profile/chri...
I understand why people are exhausted by AI hype, and why those of us squarely in the corner of "human dignity uber alles" see AI doomerism as self-serving hype, but I *really* think people on the left broadly need to start thinking seriously about the possibiltiy of the hype being...true.

One of the fun things about forums was that all conversation was at the sufferance of the admin, who would only be known by their handle, something like "big pez"
And their ideosyncrasies would be solely communicated by word-of-mouth.
"Oh you can't post about Belgium, big pez doesn't like that."
