Shocked by the awful death of Rob Reiner. I spoke with him for over an hour last night. We talked about his work and his plans for the future. I always enjoyed his company. We met at his Dad's in 1975. Last thing he said to me was "See you next year.." Such a terrible end. Such a sweet man.

Dystopia is now.

"'Elon Musk is becoming a role model now,' said Zhang. An increasing number of 'crazy rich' clients are commissioning dozens, or even hundreds, of U.S.-born babies with the goal of 'forging an unstoppable family dynasty,' he said."

Aucune image ne pourra mieux résumer l’invisibilisation du travail sous le capitalisme : on remplace des ouvriers qui prenaient des risques physiques par des gens qui n’ont strictement aucune probabilité de perdre quoi que ce soit et dont on ne sait pas au juste ce qu’ils produisent
I guess it's fitting that it's a reimagined, worse version of someone else's artwork

GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now

Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.

I wish all figures of authority cared about moms and babies. But some don’t. Some even want you to hurt. And those are the people who cast doubt on the vaccination miracle that has allowed so many of us to live longer and better.
