I think it’s kind of interesting that so many cultural and political elites decided “learning loss” from remote schooling during a pandemic was so severe it was worth ignoring medical safety, while actual learning loss from AI is pervasive and growing and they all want to impose more of it on us.

Seriously, do not buy, stream, or otherwise support of promote more Harry Potter bullshit. It is no longer theoretical - Rowling is funelling those wizard bucks into getting the law changed to actively oppress an already-vulnerable minority.

so what you're saying is that a South African racist, who has permissions necessary to take these changes live, who's a much worse engineer than they think they are, was awake at 3am? who would do this? could such a person truly be working at X, the Everything App?

60% of Americans have a chronic condition. Among people over 65, it's 95%. Saying most of our health care spending goes to chronic conditions is just another way of saying it goes to health care.

Kojima: I was reading Catcher In The Rye and it moved me. I emailed JD Salinger and he agreed to be scanned for DS2. Reporter: That’s.. How did you Kojima: all our souls are separated by a “Caul Field.” I think JD’s performances as Ryeman and Catcherman will impress everyone.

First DOGE took my job, now my contract gig, and my employer illegally tricked those of us in the union out of COBRA. This move has also indefinitely delayed my unemployment. Meanwhile, I’m paying 6 months of double rent, all while navigating chronic illness. Any shares are deeply appreciated 🙏🏻

One of the things I learned writing a book about global trade is that thing you got delivered next day started its journey months ago in China or SE Asia. A few months from now you will see an explosion of stories about empty shelves. It’s going to blow people’s minds.

empathy is important, people falling down those rabbit holes NEED to know that you their loved ones will be there for them when and if they leave but empathy must be paired with a hard line. "No I do not believe this. No I will not debate certain things. If you cross this line we no longer talk."

It's a brutal time for young men. So many of their role models are disappearing right in front of their eyes, only to suddenly reappear without any meaningful attempt to offer healthy explanations beyond "peek a boo.”
