AI kind of feels like the endgame of this bit Graeber described in the original Bullshit Jobs essay: these people have been so thoroughly cleaved from any sense of purpose that they resent those who have one. They hate artists for their skill and think poverty should be the price of having a calling

My long-held opinion is that America WILL elect a female President and she WILL be the most psychotic reactionary conservative ever seen, and welp
After careful consideration I have determined MTG is laying the groundwork for a 2028 presidential run. She's strategically distancing herself from the fracturing MAGA project and establishing a veneer of respectability. It's gonna work too.

And that’s why it’s important we fund music and arts for every child right? Or is it the make rich guys richer thing again?
All AI music does is devalue the work done by human artists. It’s not accessibility, it’s exploitation. We need real protections for artists against AI!
BTW — even if you had access to this AI startup as a child, you still wouldn’t know how to make music.

There's someone I've long hated and the world is starting to agree with me, but unfortunately everyone hates them for the wrong reasons so it's a hollow victory

Alright, whatever your view about the research, geo-engineering will never be a meaningful climate solutions because the only plausible case for geo-engineering is if we rapidly decrease our carbon emissions which we are not currently doing.
The risks of geoengineering have been pretty constant, as I felt deeply when I reported this last year. How to restate them again in a novel way for the gazillionth time? Moral hazard, rising geopolitical tensions, doesn't address ocean acid., termination shock!

This list is wrong, it should be 100 TikToks of guys getting hit in the nuts
The movie listed at #1 is so incredibly misplaced that it calls into question the veracity of the entire list. It belongs on the list, yes, but SO MUCH further down. An absolute, credibility-wrecking flub. Boo, @variety.com! Boo!

Today, striking baristas are taking the picket line to Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol's office.
Instead of investing in workers, Starbucks is on a spending spree - notably, on Niccol’s sky-high compensation, his satellite office away from HQ, & a private jet to commute from California to Seattle.

Well well well, if it isn't my continual disappointment of a rep, @pettersen.house.gov
Colorado Democratic Reps. Jason Crow and Brittany Pettersen joined all Republicans in declaring that "the collectivistic system of socialism in all of its forms is fundamentally and necessarily opposed" to the founding beliefs of the United States. www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...
4 senior House Dems — Hakeem Jeffries, Katherine Clark, Pete Aguilar, & Ted Lieu — voted for a Republican-led resolution to “CONDEMN SOCIALISM,” a symbolic measure that passed the chamber on Wed. The vote comes as NYC mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani is set to meet with Pres. Donald Trump at the WH today.
