In case you're wondering why AI is pushing so hard into education, that last bullet point is why. Get consumers hooked in young and they're likely to stay. And get embedded enough into classrooms and curriculum and the education system can't function without it - ie permanent consumers.
*The AI boom = one of the costliest building sprees in world history
* Past 3 years' commitments are greater than the cost of building the U.S. interstate highway system
* Consumers must spend $800 billion on AI within a few years, to justify investment from 2023-24

People be so off base whenever they assume that all of blue states are bastions of liberalism and open mindedness.
Like Stephen miller, Nixon, and Reagan are/were all from California.
Go 50 miles outside of most major cities you might as well be in Mississippi.

Gonna go even further: don't refer to it as "consuming media" when doing this. You aren't a consumer - it's not a product. You read books. You look at art. You watch movies and/or videos. Be careful about word choice.
Reject "consume" and REJECT "CONTENT."

I'm being so real right now, learn how to engage in media as art and not a reflection of your own real life morals. consume things that make you uncomfortable and understand why it makes you uncomfortable. Don't just base yours and others morals standings on the media you consume.

So the Disney/Hulu/ESPN bundle is $29.99/month.
For no reason at all, I'd like to point out that you can get our entire 2025 lineup, or all 4 issues of THE SKULL & LAUREL in eBook, for less than that.

Heard from a friend at Disney+ that there are multiple levels of freakout internally, both from internal dissatisfaction, concerns about subscription cancelations, and of course the big one: concern about a boycott spilling over into parks and cruises.

it's not "chronically online" or whatever to tell people not to add their name to a mailing list that will be immediately handed over to whichever fascist member of our government hears about it and gets mad first. can everyone get a grip
People legit yelled at me for 24 hours when I said it's extremely dumb to RSVP to a protest. Why hand your name over to a group organizing a protest/rally? Do you *want* to have to talk to the FBI?
Treat anyone encouraging you to RSVP to a protest as a fed. End of.
