In culture: I’ve got a post-graduate certificate in artificial intelligence (AI). I’m also an author, and I believe writers and publishers should not use AI in publishing. But the reasons I oppose using AI are not the usual ones you hear.

This is a funny story because of how it establishes that all around the world, even the most nihilistic ultra-rich freaks are realizing this shit is stupid, wasteful, and unnecessary and Trump is like "the big plane has a couch in it, it's the highest premium leather," www.forbes.com/sites/jeremy...

This tweet from an Afrikaner is not just antisemitic, it is in line with a white nationalist/neo-Nazi theology/ideology called British Israelism that sees white Anglos as the true "chosen people" & considers today's Jews to be imposters who deserve destruction. The screenshot is from a 1992 article.

This is a shocking breach of ethics by medical providers participating in this process that will likely result in major changes to our ethical framework regarding the brain dead with likely negative implications for organ donation and research in organ donor care - which is near and dear to me.

"The Founders’ warnings about emoluments—and everything else—were tossed onto Trump’s raging first-term bonfire of rules, laws, oaths, and constitutional edicts. Now, less than four months into Trump’s second four years, the heat is already unbearable."

We need to enact a law that says: if someone is elected President, all that person's assets, excluding their home, immediately go into a genuinely blind trust, automatically, without requiring their consent. (Consent comes in the form of deciding to run for President in the first place.)

In the 1980s, American fascists tried to turn Idaho into a white Christian nationalist homeland for “refugees” from American multi-racial democracy and religious pluralism. One such community was called “Aryan Nations.” So this tracks perfectly . www.idahostatesman.com/news/politic...
