I wrote “I am alive” on a piece of paper, and placed it into a photocopier. What I saw next has shocking implications

Americans are taking to the streets and showing up in US cities by the thousands to protest a plethora of President Donald Trump’s second-term policies.

In response? Tear gas deployed and protesters shot with rubber bullets in LA.

You go through weeks and weeks of seeing terrible headlines just for a day like today when we all become Odo in Deep Space 9 and join a great puddle of communal posting goo

DEAN: What's the tariff on bananas?

LUTNICK: Generally 10%

DEAN: Walmart has already increased the cost of bananas by 8%

LUTNICK: If you build in America, there is no tariff

DEAN: We cannot build bananas in America

This was just posted by @tbretc.bsky.social on another platform. The Chicago Sun-Times obviously gets ChatGPT to write a ‘summer reads’ feature almost entirely made up of real authors but completely fake books. What are we coming to?

your regular reminder that buying Harry Potter stuff gives money to Rowling and she uses that money directly and in large quantities to fund attacks on trans people

no ethical consumption under capitalism and all but “don’t buy Potter stuff” is an extremely easy baseline to follow

i don’t understand when my fellow thirtysomethings panic about no longer understanding what the kids like and how they dress. the most perfect serenity ever devised by man or heaven is within reach and you’re pushing it away with both hands

This is an incredible story. Extremely well written deep dive into an entire generation captured by generative AI. Even professors are using AI to grade AI written papers.

Wild.

it's jolting how little AI skepticism has reached the general public. i've had many acquaintances ask whether i use AI for research and seem shocked when i tell them it's completely useless for that purpose. my wife recently told her colleagues about hallucinations and it was news to all of them.

just so we’re all clear: the reason they keep using dolls as their example is because they’re trying to frame caring about material stuff as feminine and thus inherently shameful
Bessent says that little girls who are sad about having fewer dolls should just have it explained to them that they will have a better life for it

A reminder that every small bit of good you do - whether it be putting art into the world, helping a friend or stranger, donating to a good cause, or just listening to someone who needs to vent - offsets all the evil in the world just a little bit. And sometimes that's just what the world needs.

Cars are very cool, but I think perhaps we should roll back some of the things that make them so cool, like the fact that a single headlight assembly for my car costs /over a thousand dollars/.

No wonder cars are so expensive to insure now!
