i think it is fascinating that so many artists say that their best ideas come from out of the blue from within, it is sad that the world is now specifically set up to eliminate those moments of calm and peace where the ideas can surface.

No son, they are not "magically delicious." The workers made them delicious. This is a slogan meant to mystify the social conditions of labor

US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE:
"I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

Welcome to the latest Ed McMillen game. You are a small, malformed creature whose brief life to date has been terrible. You may notice that everything is smeared with shit and blood. But don't worry about that. Your job is to kill Satan

I always love articles like this because they talk about how it's a mistake for China to not work with the US and its allies on stuff like biotech, space, and other areas.
And then half way into the article they're like "Yeh, we banned anyone from working with China"

On of the great things about blogging is easy discovering something you wrote that looks a bit ahead of its time. Such as this piece, on AI slop before it was called slop.

The information grey goo
I’m broadly positive about the future of LLMs and AI, but no one should pretend there will not be difficulties or that the transition to using machines isn’t going to pose plenty of challenges.
Some scenarios, though, are profoundly dangerous, not just for the publishing and creative industries,

This seems really straightforward. An institution that will not agree and cannot be compelled to follow the law must be abolished. There's no other option

My favorite part of that “Don’t Be A Panican” press release the White House issued yesterday is this sentence “These wins aren’t happening by accident—they come after President Trump lodged the most productive first year of a presidential term in modern history—and aren’t happening by accident.”
