I know I’m fixating, but “shooting down party balloons and using it as a pretext for war” is literally the “99 Luftballons” story arc. 🎈🤯 (Even “Miami 2017” didn’t map this closely.)
![Wikipedia entry describing the story arc of “99 Luftballons”:
The lyrics of the original German version tell a story:
99 balloons are mistaken for UFOs, causing a military general to send pilots to investigate. Finding nothing but balloons, the pilots put on a large show of firepower. The display of force worries the nations along the borders and the defence ministers on each side encourage conflict to grab power for themselves.
In the end, a cataclysmic war results from the otherwise harmless flight of balloons and causes devastation on all sides without a victor, as indicated in the denouement of the song: "99 Jahre Krieg ließen keinen Platz für Sieger," which means "99 years of war left no room for victors." The anti-war song finishes with the singer walking through the devastated ruins of the world and finding a single balloon. The description of what happens in the final line of the piece is the same in German and English:
'''Denk' an dich und lass' ihn fliegen," or "Think of you and let it go."[11]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:4dp4culto5csbqs5m6ge22fw/bafkreie4ga5vudhvz4e25t5oducxifde6sf2zgal7wugci2bv5ee2qfcoe@jpeg)

The funniest part of AI companies paying creators $600K to promote their products is the quiet admission that the best way to sell AI... is still a real human being who people actually trust.

They have thrown so much money at this that 600k is chicken feed. It's still crap though. You can get the same effects if you just improve your Googling.
Some people are going to lose their shirt betting on it.

Microsoft, Google, Meta and Amazon paying influencers $400k-$600k to post months of AI hype content. Absolutely busted, failed industry, embarrassing era

Google and Microsoft offer lucrative deals to promote AI, but even $500,000 won't sway some creators
Tech companies including Google and Microsoft are paying influencers hundreds of thousands of dollars to promote AI products.

Gallup will no longer measure presidential approval after 88 years...

The idea that someone so successful was reduced to selling off memorabilia like a broken down retired football player on his 3rd divorce paying alimony just to pay for cancer treatment is so damning of American healthcare.
If he can't afford it, what chance do poor people have?

He fucked a lot of things up, but the same structural issues also remain. 25 years and counting.

BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned
NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

It's crazy that America has racismed its way into a hyper individualistic society with no real physical communities where people would rather ask chatbots for help than neighbors or librarians because other people are seen as threats instead of countrymen and compatriots.
