So I continue on my watch-through of #GalaxyExpress999 - and it remains depressingly appropriate to the current moment. And while it has its flaws both narratively and culturally (it IS almost 50 years old now), it remains a solid and enjoyable watch that holds my attention. 1/20

One way I can tell that #CNBC simply isn't actually journalism of any stripe (or even decent business reporting): about 20 minutes ago, they had an talking head summarizing the president's latest executive order about AI. At no point did she note that an executive order carries no force of law. 1/5

OK, I can understand a font being "woke" in the sense that some are designed to be more easily readable for people with dyslexia or vision problems but you would think SOMEONE would stop and actually hear the words coming out of their own mouths and then walk into the sea.
Marco Rubio ordered diplomats to return to using Times New Roman font in official communications, calling his predecessor's decision to adopt Calibri a “wasteful” diversity move
Rubio Stages Font Coup: Times New Roman Ousts Calibri
The secretary of state called it a "wasteful" diversity move, according to an internal department cable seen by Reuters.

Social media promotes the idea that the loudest and most talkative person in the room is the one worth hearing.
And if you've ever been in a room with an obnoxiously loud person who WILL. NOT. SHUT. UP. you'll know how wholly untrue this is.

I just finished what I thought was my re-watch of "Visions of Escaflowne" after 25+ years and I came to the realization that I never watched the end of it. I always thought it was an unfinished show that ended abruptly at Episode 24. I am glad I was mistaken.

It was always a hollow threat. Despite #CNBC interviewing realtor after realtor assuring us that the flight had already begun and having their hosts warning of doom, nothing happened and it was never going to.

There are big(ish) board game media names out there who don't agree with the 'No AI' stance for this. The paper-thin excuses for these apologists are crazy. "It's going to take over". "You can't avoid it". "You have to accept you'll cover AI generated games"...
No. This is utter bollocks.
