I think AI is going to eventually tank in the longterm, but... the only real way to combat this is single-interest communities. Forums, user comms, etc, with a barrier to entry. They become trustable knowledgebases. It's really the only way forward is to return to what worked best the first time

FOR THE FIRST TIME "EVER", THE STATE KNOWN FOR GLACIERS, DOGSLEDDING & NORTHERN LIGHTS ISSUED A HEAT ADVISORY. Homes rarely have air con or ceiling fans; their thick walls are built to trap in warmth for the long, subzero winters. Sun sets around 1:00AM and rises again about 2 hours later at 3:00AM.

I live in LA, not NYC, but I just want to say how refreshing it is to see big city politicians who give big cities the love. We LOVE our cities and we'd die for them. That's why we all live here

Speaking of which, NYC Bluesky, the owner of this diner is the one who spotted my sister's aunt sitting outside for hours and (a) brought her inside, (b) fed her, (c) and called police. If you're ever on the Upper East Side, go spread some love! 🫶🏾💕🙏🏾

Someone said “the world is on fire but you are not the extinguisher. Rest your mind.” And while easier said than done, those words calmed my anxiety a bit.

I want to see all of y’all “I cant wait for summer” folks outside! Work outside. Eat outside. Take that run. Hang out outside for no particular reason other than to enjoy your favorite season. Enjoy that heat index. I want pics and updates.

Aye, If you are taking any SSRIs: Fluoxetine (Prozac), Sertraline (Zoloft), Paroxetine (Paxil), Citalopram (Celexa), & Escitalopram (Lexapro)… You have an increased risk of heat rash, heat cramps, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke. Especially if you are neurodivergent & struggle with Interoception.

Lmao, no, nuh-uh. It's just quid pro quo amongst the elites, that's it, that's ALL. If a newbie wins office, who will grease THEIR palms???? Who will lob contracts to THEIR friends and families?! Will no one think of the corrupt politicians??!?!

The liberatory power of mass literacy has been established across half a millennia. When you begin with this fact, everything from Silicon Valley fantasies of post-literacy to MAGA book bans fall neatly in line. Literacy is the foundation of democratic society. It must be enclosed & economized.

I been said that actuaries tell us the truth. Oh COVID is mild? What do life insurance companies say about that? Climate change is not real? Then why are insurance companies planning to refuse coverage to certain places?

Bad Bunny documented an ICE arrest in Puerto Rico, sharing footage of what appears to be agents detaining people in the street: “Look, those motherfuckers are in these cars, RAV-4s. They’re here in Pontezuela. Sons of b--s, instead of leaving the people alone.”
