What's from Chicago, hates Illinois Nazis, and is holy as fuck?

It's the Pope in 1982.
Exactly what it says on the label: The Pope in 1982. He's wearing a black hat, dark RayBans, and looks like he's a member of the Blues Brothers.

New awareness campaign
A digital poster in the style of a World War II propaganda piece. Isolaed on a yellow background, a normal, squarish, 20-something guy with glasses is sitting working on a laptop. A ghostly figure of Hitler has his arm around the guy and is grinning and shaking a fist triumphantly looking at the laptop screen. On the lid of the laptop where an apple might otherwise be is an openAI logo, bright green, and dripping green ooze down the lid. Text on the poster, in combinations of sans-serif type and brush script reads: Using Generative AI? You’re prompting with Hitler! GenAI is a Fascist Project! Try using your brain instead Don’t surrender your creativity to the tech billionaire’s control

Boy, North Carolina Republicans sure don't want the attached story to circulate. I sure hope that this stupid threat from their spokesperson doesn't boomerang on them and have a lot more people read and share the story, which once again, is conveniently attached below. That would be a shame.

“hope isn’t a mood. it’s a decision.” (via confettitactics on threads: www.threads.com/@confettitac...)
I've lived under martial law before. Not in the U.S.-in Thailand, after a coup. And I've walked Tiananmen Square, too. So what I'm watching in LA right now? It hits different. Because I've seen how authoritarianism takes hold-and how America's resistance isn't following the script. 1/7 In Thailand, I taught at a private school after the military coup. One of my coworkers had lived through the actual lockdown in Bangkok. He remembered hearing gunfire and realizing: they're killing people in the street. That fear settled into daily life. You complied. You stayed quiet. You survived. 2/7 The man who led the coup? He became a monk-because in Thailand, becoming a monk makes you untouchable. I was literally teaching his grandkids. People worried if the military would come for them, too. That's the weight of real martial law. It changes how you move through the world. 3/7 In China, I visited Tiananmen Square. My Chinese teacher's mother was pregnant with her when she stood in that square. That history was personal. But it was also erased. Because in authoritarian regimes, memory itself becomes dangerous. What we're not allowed to remember gets rewritten. 4/7 So watching protests erupt in LA right now-protesters shutting down freeways, standing off against SWAT, refusing to move-I'm struck by what's different. Yes, there's fear. But there's also volume. America isn't going quiet. And that matters. Because martial law requires submission. It relies on people staying home. It needs us to believe we're outnumbered. But in every major U.S. city right now, people are standing up. Not just resisting. Refusing to disappear. 5/7 They want us to believe there's no choice. But that's a lie authoritarianism always tells. And America-messy, loud, imperfect America-still hasn't bought into that lie. So yes, l'm scared. But I also have something I didn't have in Thailand or China. Thave hope. Not because everything will work out on its own. But because people are choosing to show up. Because we're not done yet. 6/7 Hope isn't a mood. It's a decision. And if you're struggling to find it-borrow mine. I've lived through a coup. I've lived under martial law. And I'm telling you right now: This moment isn't over. We're still writing the ending. 7/7

Always remember to type "-ai" at the end of all your Google searches. I forgot to this time, and it wasted a ton of water to be as wrong as it could possibly be.

The AI revolution is garbage.

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like
Why should I write better when a machine can do it for me? Because actually no one can do it for you, because your voice is unique among all the people on earth. Siri never petted a horse's neck. Alexa has never been ghosted by the captain of the football team. But you have lived, your heart is beating, you have suffered, and you have something important to say. It's a human's job, to use words, and whatever job you give to a machine, that part of your brain goes dark. Maybe it's worth it when it comes to remembering phone numbers and directions, but when that part of your brain that uses words goes dark, that's a vast area that's very close to your soul. Don't let some internet platform convince you that what you have to say and create isn't worthwhile. Words are the echo of your soul. Honing that echo matters.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.

Remind you of anyone?

I currently have two fully-funded PhD opportunities in my lab - both providing a chance to work on the incredible LEAF data set that we have been collecting the last couple of years (220 children followed longitudinally from 10-30 months on measures of attention and early EF). Please share!
