A couple times a year, I check in on www.animefeminist.com to see some of their recs. I tire of fan service and other problematic tropes. They do a great job of finding the diamonds in the rough, and/or which ones might be worth powering through a problematic episode or character.

There’s an enormous amount of stuff in this book I’d like to highlight, but start with:

“What emerges as the most elementary insight is that, since we do not now have any ways of making computers wise, we ought not now to give computers tasks that demand wisdom.”

First the terrorist tried to enter campus in a car filled with guns. When he wasn’t allowed past the gates, he started firing from a CVS drugstore across the street. From a semi-automatic weapon, 500 shots is a lot. He was at it for a long time.

Here are the weapons & shell casings he left behind.

Thank you for this perfect distillation! I would be so happy to vote for every candidate and party who proudly stands on "unshakeable civil rights and healthcare justice for all."
