At Target yesterday, I took a look at the books they have on the endcap right by the cash register — the top spot for popular fiction. The two books with the top-shelf spots were SFF with non-traditional routes to publishing:
-This Inevitable Ruin by Matt Dinniman
- Alchemised by SenLinYu

I’ve been thinking a lot about this scenario too — the fact that AI might be “good enough” for people, and then it’ll kill everything great. I’m working on a post about it (coming soon!). Really great insights in this essay from @cwarzel.bsky.social
Quote from the 2nd to last paragraph of the linked essay, with sentences 3 & 4 highlighted.

Elon Musk pulling some dumb middle management shit to mine federal data
#MuskEmail #OfficeSpaceMemes #badDOGE
Office Space meme of boss saying: If you could send your five bullets with all the data I'm going to steal, that would be great. The boss is labeled: Musk

Cleaning out some drawers and I came across this. I got it at the NIH during COVID in 2020. Remember how awful things were pre-vaccine? Let’s not forget that decades of NIH research brought us effective COVID vaccines, which saved millions of lives!

Holy shit. Elon’s people and their families are literally LIVING in government buildings — this is from a town hall in Northern Virginia

OMG the federal judge who blocked the Executive Order to end birthright citizenship lowkey suggested that Trump’s lawyers should be disbarred for even arguing the EO is constitutional 🤣 This guy’s a hero

I got these free lint roller brushes in the mail, probably as part of a brushing scam. I see what you did there, scammers!

Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃🍁🦖 Don’t forget that not all dinosaurs are extinct — the scariest ones evolved into terror birds and turkeys are some of the most beastly birds in North America!

Many months ago, I got this notification from my pizza app. Somehow I bought enough pizza that month to have become a small business warrior by saving a vast sum from the greedy claws of UberEats. A source of great pride and concern 🙃

Still finding some gems in my deleted tweets. I updated this one from 2021 and I think it’s accurate 🙃
A meme with a picture of a yellow construction vehicle on a shoreline trying to hold back a huge gray ship that is at least 10 times taller. The ship is labeled “the crushing despair of everything” with “from the last year” crossed out and the vehicle is labeled “you, doing your best”
