Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

📚This is a wild story I missed when it was uncovered earlier this year. A summer reading list, standard fare for major newspapers, was entirely fictitious produced by a LLM. The editors relied on a syndicate, but that doesn't relieve them of accountability. Sign of the times. 📚

…. I tried looking up what “Eastern Pacific“ means and our media stenography situation is such that they all reported that phrase without asking ANY questions

When Rob Reiner was on his all-time epic run at the start of his career, he had an opportunity to read a script that was looking for a production partner, and he lost his mind for it. He decided Castle Rock had to have it, no matter what.
