Aren’t we all just strange bleeding hearts tamping our big, sensitive FEELINGS while we filter our perception of reality through an unreliable lens or is that just me?

It occurs to me, and I'm sure I'm not the only one, that what is happening with the ultra rich oppressing and exploiting everyone else is a mirror of what humans have done to the earth.

A time-, suffering-, and life-saving-hack: Listen to women, especially survivors. Believe them.

Imagine how different today would be if the powerful had listened to Anita Hill. To Christine Blasey Ford. To Trump's many accusers, especially those speaking about their mistreatment as children.

This is evil.

Don't use AI. Don't download AI apps. AI kills jobs, the planet, and people -- intentionally.

A system that is not oriented towards your well-being won't allow you to be well, if you being well stands in the way of the actual goal of the system.

As a historian, I can certify that we are in the bad times. But bad times eventually end.
In the meantime:
• Figure out a small way to help someone
• Figure out a small way to fight back
• Figure out a small place to find joy
• Figure out a small way to grow and thrive

And do it often.

It’s a "crisis" when immigrants "take jobs away", but "innovation" when machines do. Funny.

A word on burnout & feeling strung out because "I can't save all the things that need saving."

Democracy is supposed to be a mosaic and a relay race. We never have to take care of the whole ourselves.

In fact if we do, it kinda stops being democracy.

I seriously wonder if Dems realize that if they ALL stopped using Tik Tok, anything Zuckerburg/Musk/Ellison, etc., that the could literally end the dominance of these MF. But I sadly suspect the won't give up their convenience for democracy.

A Labor Day reminder: today there isn't a single city, metro area, or state in the U.S. where a full-time minimum-wage worker can afford a modest 2-bedroom apartment.

Millions of people with jobs—even multiple jobs—aren't safe from homelessness in this country.

Plainly, the people mad about the work required to write well and make great art who are justifying various artificial intelligence tools as shortcuts to that creative process don't value the labor inherent to it.

In many respects, «artificial intelligence» is less a model of the human mind than a technical implementation of neoliberal market theory: a simulation of supposedly superhuman rationality optimized for efficient problem solving, which leads to mostly irrational and ultimately destructive results
