Not to go down this week's particular rabbit hole very deeply, but as a guy who was *in fact hiring Hollywood writers* between 2011 and 2018, four staffs in total, it seems a lot of smart commenters are missing I did not diversify my rooms to be woke, I diversified my rooms to have better rooms.

It’s my birthday tomorrow, and if you’d like to celebrate with me, please donate to CALM via the link below. Your money will go towards funding their vital mental health crisis phone line, which has done valuable work saving lives. It’s a cause that’s close to my heart 💚 thank you!

No. It still gives her a boost and extra money to use for her hate campaigns. Just give up on it. There are plenty of better books, games and movies.

This makes me homesick for Ireland 😂

We should be asking this

If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

Look, there's a chance AI will be a psychologically destructive, addictive technology that may never produce the results promised for the price of the financial, environmental, and social upheaval it will cause, so the important thing is to get it into as many hands as possible as fast as possible.

some of you spend too much time on facebook when you need to face books 😔

Cute! ✨ Watch Pedro the penguin chick during a behind-the-scenes Zoo adventure! 🐧 With his little flippers flapping and curious eyes wide, Pedro explored new sights and sounds. These adventures help the fuzzy chick get comfortable with different environments as he continues to grow and thrive.

So we’re passing laws to protect children from things they see online but simultaneously pushing to expose their gooey young brains to AI from kindergarten on, a tech that’s been shown to impair critical thinking and cause psychotic breaks in full grown adults, even ones who work with it.

Cool.

Much like the APES TOGETHER STRONG one, I will forever adore this for how fuckin simply it gets The Whole Deal across

In light of everything happening, I wrote about how the KKK in the 1920s felt unstoppable, about the people that fought against them anyway, and about how fascism always fails. dansinker.com/posts/202…

Convo with my friend from Hungary tonight who left after Orban’s election.

She said “your head will spin with all the wild stuff they try to pull, new things every day, but don’t take your eyes off the money. It’s all about the money, and what they’re stealing, and for whom.”

One thing I hope we can do as Bluesky gets larger is be less tolerant of the resistance grifters who will try to hack the platform for engagement and growth without any interest in adding anything substantive or meaningful

It’s a different kind of troll.
