Thanks to this I found a book review my dad wrote in 1996 where he writes about a subject adjacent to my PhD topic only his academic prose is so much better than mine and now I am in a doom spiral because I thought I was the smart one THANKS META
Meta used at least 16 of my books, and numerous articles, to help train the AI it will use to make billions.

I’m getting a divorce and I’ve really enjoyed using ‘I’m getting a divorce’ as an excuse not to do things, and when I have finished having a divorce, I think I might miss it.

Here is a script you can use for any issue. Find your reps' # at reps.fyi or 5calls.org. Every time you see a news story that horrifies you: call, or something else about it. It matters to say what you believe. You are setting a norm.

I am a climate scientist and this is correct ⬇️
Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.
