A reminder: when wealthy investors or pundits call for AI or robots everywhere, the subtext you should read into this is that they want to replace humans with perfect slaves.
It's all about slavery. They believe robots and AIs can't rebel, so they'll be safe from their workers.

It's a sign of the times that callousness is now dressed up as intellectualism. That empathy is framed as being as morally problematic as prejudice. That bigotry and hatred is just honesty. That solidarity is treason.

It's pretty much sacrilegious to say that the social sciences and humanities are as important as STEM. But I'll go one further and say they are more important than STEM. You can be a productive member of civic society without ever taking calculus. Good luck doing that without understanding history.

These sculptures are hand built and painted, but I like how they look machine made and processed. My favorite work from last year is this catalog based on McMaster Carr cover and page design.

I will never stop being aghast that the United States built a higher education system that was literally the envy of the entire world—our bitterest political enemies nonetheless sent their children to us to be educated, it was so good—& then just decided to systematically, ruthlessly dismantle it
