Makes me recall a clip I saw of Joe Rogan enthusiastically forcing an musician to listen to genAI music he'd prompted as he heaped praise on the model that had generated it.
The musician responded, "What about AI podcasts? They have those, now."
No prizes for guessing how Joe reacted.

Like, as a Jewish kid growing up in a super Christian town, you just learn early that it’s normal to be in spaces where everybody believes something that you do not. And you learn not to make it all about you.

"But it’s the Cuban people who will suffer worst. They are fighting for their lives right now, while fully cognizant of the fact that things are about to get much, much worse. The only question to answer: How much death do Trump and Rubio deem acceptable? And how bad is it about to get?"
11 Million Cubans Are Poised to Starve Without Venezuelan Oil. How Many Will We Allow to Die?
Cuba is poised on the brink of collapse, with devastating humanitarian disaster looming. And the U.S. is simply watching from 90 miles away.

Further evidence that widespread covid vaccination is better for everybody.
A study on 1.7 million people in Hong Kong shows superior hybrid immunity to Covid in people who got vaccinated before infection vs. people who got infected first. "Our findings are a direct rebuttal to arguments for natural immunity," the authors write. doi.org/10.1016/j.va...

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

The White House’s insistence on using Sabrina Carpenter’s work and image to promote their crimes against humanity is also them appealing to their base, which already uses technology to try and humiliate and puppeteer the likenesses of women who have autonomy, success, and visibility in public

These people have never carressed a lover, or enjoyed a homecooked meal, or been rendered speechless by the beauty of the natural world. Just so miserably infected with capitalism, that they would comodify the very humanity they've lost, the feelings they are no longer capable of feeling.
