“Last month, Norway…. recorded a biting 37.9 percent slump [in Tesla sales]. At the same time, Tesla sales in France fell by a thumping 63.4 percent. And it gets even worse: In Spain, Tesla sales plummeted by 75.4 percent.” link.wired.com/click/67b7ad...

We see your tiny Hedge Hog (so precious) and we raise you... miniature Galileo!

Nora wonders what's missing for AI scientific creativity, given they do art. Um, with art you can mash things together and get something art-like, but with science you can't, cos it requires understanding. Which requires consciousness. And AIs are not conscious. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ksso...

I have a strong suspicion that a great deal of the mind’s activity is inhibitory. We spend an awful lot of effort shutting down streams of information, channeling activity, blocking and constraining.

Never forget how important @markfrost.bsky.social was to the mythology and success of #TwinPeaks. Without his hard work and dedication, the "Twin Peaks" we ALL :) love would cease to exist. Thank you, Mark for everything!

Bravery is needed these days.

America's greatest force multiplier and global strength has been its network of allies. Popular lore now sees them as a burden. So America is killing its alliances. The Trump-Musk-Vance administration's moves are an act of epic self-harm.

You know who else made great strides in rocket technology, right?

Never in the history of bumper stickers has a bumper sticker played such a critical role in a car owner’s public communication portfolio.

The North Star, Polaris, stays in the same spot in the sky while others seem to move. But it's not really at the center. Check out Steve Brown's amazing #Astrophoto at https://bsky.app/profile/sjbastro.bsky.social/post/3letlckdbk22s for a demonstration.

Not only should decent people and organizations no longer be on X, but decent people should no longer be supporting and working for Space X. I've been guilty myself of ignoring who owns it because I'm wonderstruck by the technology. Time to hope they fail & support other space ventures.

Process Metaphysics Meets Possibilist Physics | Matthew Segall & Ruth Kastner Nice productive discussion on similarities and links between Whitehead's Process Philosophy and the Transactional Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics. Important stuff #philosophy #physics www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1JD...

Correct, and even if it wasn't, the fight for social justice should continue apace anyway, because it's morally right, not contingent on whether it's popular or not.

I always take the same stance with UFOs/UAPs: I'd not be at all surprised if it turned out some of them were genuinely extra-terrestrial or whatever, but I'd be very surprised indeed if it turned we knew this already & that there was an official conspiracy keeping it from us.

You deserve a longer letter than this; but it is my unhappy fate seldom to treat people so well as they deserve.... God bless you! #JaneAusten #Letters1798

I just found out it’s Thumb Appreciation Day! #TwinPeaks #AgentCooper

Wrote a short article for the Institute of Art and Ideas website about the idea of a composite self, both as a literal hypothesis about our nature and as a way of thinking about how we should relate to our own minds.

On this day in 1985, “The Breakfast Club” soundtrack was released featuring the international hit single "Don't You (Forget About Me)" by Simple Minds.

I can't stop thinking about Mike Levin’s new paper (link below) about Platonic morphospace. I find his proposal cosmologically plausible, but I have many questions about the metaphysical implications (ie, whether he is unintentionally treating potentiality as actuality).
