This Trans Day of Rememberance, I am feeling grateful to have so many Trans friends still in my life, thriving and being their best selves. I offer a prayer for peace upon those of our siblings whose travels ended before they reached the sunlight. Thank you for giving us even these brief moments.

Andrew Cuomo’s campaign just posted — and quickly deleted — this AI-generated ad depicting “criminals for Zohran Mamdani.”
Features a Black man in a keffiyeh shoplifting, an abuser, a trespasser, a trafficker, a drug dealer, and a drunk driver all declaring support for Mamdani.

Creating animals that are totally dependent on us was probably wrong.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

@katie.bzky.team I'm hearing disturbing rumors about lead in protein powder here in the US. Does this affect your creatine recommendation?

Every generation is doomed to engage with Walter Benjamin anew.
Idle prediction: We see crafts like knitting, model airplanes, etc. become more popular because you can't ask Chat GPT to make you a sweater or glue together a P-51 yet and therefore they become more impressive feats relative to other hobbies you can "outsource."

Today's new installment in the Philosophy in China series: Non-Action in the Laozi (Daodejing)
The concept of wuwei or “non-action”: does it mean that the perfect sage or political ruler simply never does anything?

A single nuclear warhead, of unknown origin, is heading toward the U.S. mainland in Kathryn Bigelow's new Netflix film. It's an unnerving scenario — but it's also thrilling to watch. n.pr/48przga

when are two things equal? never. if they were equal, they wouldn't be two things. you're welcome.
it also points at the difficulty of equality - using Frege’s terminology, we have 1 and 0.999… denote the same real number; have the same reference, but have a different sense. Equality of real numbers is the _extensional_ equality of what they denote (e.g. Dedekind cuts).

Proposal: The GU SETMECHANICUBE! 🧊
A 180 card, two-color cube centered on all of the extremely narrow GU #2CUDS we've seen over the years.
The challenge is to find ~some~ synergy across all of these little niches, and... honestly, I think it can be done!

Gritty and dense and just a hint of sweet. Cheap cocoa. Vitamins and egg white to excess. No frosting. An American flag screen printed on top. Vacuum sealed in a foil pouch.
there should be an austere version of a cupcake with a more restrained, masculine aura that also tastes horrible
