Seems to me you are leaving reality to go back to an artificial reality

What’s remarkable here is that The Beaverton didn’t need to craft exaggeration or satire—Trump’s actual words suffice. When reality begins to parody itself, satire becomes a mirror rather than a distortion.

We’ve normalized calling someone a “genius” when they’re really just a Machiavellian operator exploiting brilliant engineers under impossible pressure. People really ought to learn the difference.

As a software engineer, I’m already seeing AI tools that could wipe out many junior dev roles altogether. And this isn’t just one profession—it’s about who gets left behind when an economy automates faster than it cares for people.

Our economic system rewards ever‑growing profits—and, frankly, corporate greed. We even build our careers and retirements on that expectation. Relentless profit goals often clash with the well‑being of people and society. Until Western culture shifts its values, that tension will persist.

Where are those people now though? They’re drowned out by the dumbest people ever to inhabit this country.

Thanks for your service, Charlie!

So stupid. Colonizing Mars isn’t viable with current tech: lethal radiation, no breathable air, extreme cold, and full reliance on Earth for supplies. It's smarter to invest in sustaining Earth than building life support 225M km away.

What a bunch of fools

It's sad because people require real connection. AI can simulate conversation, but not true connection. It doesn't feel, grow, or share life with you. Human bonds are built on empathy, vulnerability, and presence—things no algorithm can replace.

Jobs weren’t “stolen” by Mexico, China, or India — they were outsourced by U.S. corporations chasing profit. That’s not theft, it’s capital flight. We have a value system problem: we reward companies for harming workers and communities.

multus
comment in response to post
English "much" comes from Old English mycel (great/large) via Germanic roots. Spanish "mucho" comes from Latin multus (much/many). They look alike but aren’t related — just a linguistic coincidence

It's funny, but seriously, this is why we need proportional representation

With the numbers in the Drake Equation—billions of stars, most with planets, many in habitable zones—we shouldn’t be trying to prove life exists elsewhere. The real stretch is proving it doesn’t.

If you're someone who grew up straddling two worlds—before and after the internet became a marketplace—check her out. She’s saying things that need to be said. This is a great interview, and I also recommend the discussion from The Audio from a Collapsing state.

I admire her intelligence, sharp humor, passionate energy--she's a hell of a writer. Based on the snippets I’ve read, I had to dive deeper. Picked up The Last American Road-Trip and Hiding in Plain Sight. Can’t wait to get into them.

The good, the bad, and the ugly—like residential schools here in Canada, or slavery and genocide in the U.S. We’re part of a bridge generation—caught between the analog and digital worlds. And that gives us a certain lens, a certain clarity of what matters.

But she also shares something deeper: a belief that we've hit a point in time where it's both possible and necessary to talk honestly and empathetically about our histories.

..When discovering music, movies, and culture meant going somewhere, talking to people who genuinely cared. Using maps, fear of getting lost, using microfilm at the library..They were experiences.. not just clicking around on a screen.
