You say you've never used AI at work and people look at you like you're insane

I genuinely see random normal looking women reading Jordan Peterson in public semi regularly and have to resist the urge to ask them, like, why

I wrote about Jeffrey Epstein’s birthday book. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Even the most generous reader – the one who was driven by an excess of caution or charity towards those who spent time with Epstein – would note that Epstein’s social circle, though highly elite, is also decidedly distasteful. The drawings and letters and various missives from Epstein’s well-wishers almost uniformly consist of the kind of crude, jocular misogyny and objectification of women that passes for friendship between men of little intellect and even less character. Clearly, they thought they were being funny; there’s a decent chance that to Epstein, his abuse of those girls and young women was hilarious. Sexual violence is often experienced as violence only by the victims: to the perpetrators, it is delightful fun – trivial and unserious – and it is the perpetrators, endowed as they so often are by maleness, age, money and status, whose view guides that of others. History, after all, is written by the winners, and in cases of sexual abuse, it is almost always the men who win.

anyway, this is probably some kind of promotional stunt, but I'm amused by the idea that Spotify has just fallen out with the Pink Floyd cover artist
a spotify screenshot with pink floyd album covers replaced by white words on a black background reading things like "A wall of white bricks with red graffiti" "a prism refacts light into the spectrum" cool
