I’ve been neglecting my laundry while I finish this project. I have a pile I haven’t folded. Another pile in the dryer that is obviously not folded. My cat has claimed the former pile as her laundry throne, so it will probably never get folded.

I'll say it again -- I'm on my firm's AI committee: every canned demo has had brutal, malpractice-level errors, and every live trial has required more time and care to vet the output than to just do it, like working with an unteachably incompetent associate you'd need to sit down for a Hard Talk.

Baldur’s Gate 3 and the Queer Politics of Monstrosity.

To become a monster or not is the central conflict of the game. So, I decided to ask: what is a monster?

I spent a very long time on this project and it’s coming out in a few days as a podcast, then as an essay.

Absolute must read on the AI bailout-in-progress: apparently it's not enough that lifetimes of human ingenuity and creativity have been stolen and enclosed to create generative AI and balloon billionaire wealth - much more public looting is in store...
This week Open AI walked back a call for the govt to backstop financing for its trillion dollar investments in data centers. This was only the tip of the iceberg; a slow bailout for AI firms is already underway. Read more from @ambakak.bsky.social and I in @wsj.com: www.wsj.com/opinion/you-...

If you’d like to read Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, you can do so for free at Project Gutenberg. (And as always, your local library).

Here’s the original 1818 publication.

Just called both my senators and asked them to call for Schumer’s resignation.

Also broke down over some hot chocolate at a cafe.

Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

The cheapest plan available to me (a Georgian) is over $1,000 a month. Healthcare is no longer an option for me. I will ration the medication I take for as long as I can and then I will wait to die.
So every freelancer you know is going to lose their insurance or be bankrupted by premiums because Schumer is an invertebrate

Schumer needs to resign. Likely he needs to be forced to resign.

If America is ever going to be a functional democracy, failure can’t be institutionally protected.

Leaders that fuck up like this and delude themselves into thinking they deserve to hold power are a cancer that needs to be excised.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.

Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

I just finished watching Frankenstein, and I’m more than a little destroyed.

Beautiful film.

Having spent the last year in the depths of the novel, this film built off of the novel so well and in ways that really engaged its themes.

I can’t stop thinking about Elizabeth.

The full weight of western capitalism is about to laser focus on NYC. The robber barons failed to win and will panic. They will sabotage NYC because the system cannot allow Mamdani's term to be successful. They cannot allow people to believe things can be better. Your job now is to hold the line.

Dachau began as a "work-conditioned housing" facility. Auschwitz began as a "work-conditioned housing" facility. Majdanek began as a "work-conditioned housing" facility.
Utah has just approved a 1,300-person “mega camp” for homeless individuals,This camp lacks transportation, features locked units, and even imposes forced labor.

They refer to this facility as “work-conditioned housing,” but we simply call it what it is: modern-day internment.
