I don’t know what the answer is either. We’ve built a world that seems unsustainable from almost every angle.

I try to keep some historical perspective since every generation complains about change, but genAI does seem like a bad shift. What happens when most people simply don’t know anything?
My students don’t even bother to remove “ChatGPT said…” from their assignments half the time…

We are doomed.

When they say Trump calling a reporter "piggy" is "just being honest," they are revealing a key feature of the reactionary mind: it believes, at a deep brainstem level, that *everyone* is awful & selfish & ugly on the inside. Everyone just suppresses it out of fear of social disapproval. Not Trump!

social democrats in copenhagen moved to the right on immigration and other issues to avoid losing voters to the right which merely pushed their voters further right, and they will now lose the election for the first time in over 100 years — to the left.

Update #Serbien: Es finden weiterhin täglich diverse Aktionen und Proteste statt. Dijana Hrka, Mutter eines der Opfer, befindet sich im 15. Tag ihres Hungerstreiks vor dem Parlament. Es sind stets (mal mehr und mal weniger Menschen bei ihr). Die Lage ist politisch weiter angespannt, aber ruhig.

This chart is making the rounds again — and it might be the defining story of the Disruption Decade. One line goes vertical, one goes flat. China scaling energy like a civilisation in ascent. America stuck on maintenance mode. The future follows the energy curve. ⚡📈 #Renewables #BESS #EV #Disruption

Ugh. I'm a criminal defense attorney but during a family crisis I did some doc review. Not just olds, ppl put their every private issue into their work emails. You become protective of them & mark them as unimportant. But I'm talking emails from ppl you have heard of (cont'd)

Die US-Bischofskonferenz hat mit Paul S. Coakley einen Unterstützer des mittlerweile exkommunizierten US-Nuntius und Franziskus-Kritikers Carlo Maria Viganò zum Vorsitzenden gewählt: Es wird dunkel - die Mehrheit der US-Bischöfe will sich demnach nicht vom Trumpismus lösen.

‘Does the Latin American far right represent a novel and distinctive political project, or are we looking at the old conservatism in new clothes? The simple and unsatisfying answer is: both.’

It turns out that when you put tariffs on everyone, they just trade more with each other.

Trump made US the loner in the lunchroom of world trade.
