We’re watching a shift where AI simulates the cohesion and reinforcement that used to require an entire online community. A single person can now build a complete parallel reality with nothing more than a prompt window. Which seems bad.

Spotted a lynx, at dusk, on the island where I live. A beautiful animal, and what a confident gaze.

🧵 I want to follow up this earlier thread by examining why the USA finds itself in the state it does at the moment; the process of disordered discourse capturing state institutions and how it inevitably results in a slide towards authoritarianism, a process we're seeing unfold before our very eyes.
What we’re witnessing in America is what happens when disordered discourse captures a political party, then the state itself. The Republican Party was the first to fall - abandoning truth for conspiracy, ideology for grievance, and policy for performative outrage.

Virginian osavaltiossa etenee lakimuutos joka kieltää osavaltion kansalliskaartin osallistumisen ulkomaisiin sotiin, paitsi USA:n kongressin sodanjulistuksen perusteella. Suomi on Virginian kansalliskaartin yhteistyökumppani Euroopassa joten asia on meille tärkeä.

I guess the danger for USA is the same as what happened to UK after the idiocy of Brexit; the rest of Europe adapted and moved on. UK economy still struggling and politicians of major parties afraid to admit it.

In children per year, the US birth rate is at an all-time low, but in Miles’ per hour it’s at an all time high.

DEI hiring is problematic when it becomes a priority, but if the Trump admin is supposed to be a meritocracy, the only merit they seem to care about is personal loyalty to Trump. Replacing identity politics with a cult of personality is not an improvement.

The world being what it is, it's good to get out in the woods. This red crossbeak was fattening up on pinecones for the winter. 🐦
