Here’s my theory of the case: give coastal Americans equal representation
I really hate Elissa Slotkin's patronizing "my theory of the case is that what works in the middle of the country will work on the coasts, but not the other way around" shit. It's one of her canned lines that she uses in her eventual attempt to run for president.
God should I move I LA I’m off the flight and within two hours am seated at the familiest of family sushi places watching the baseball game and eating chirashi
this is a fantastic direct swap for the hitler play in a modern producers
I have a strong feeling that doing a Hamilton parody about Anne Frank a full decade after Hamilton came out is going to be really bad
ATPs go back to the 50s, and a fluctuation to a correct result does not imply the ability to do something in general
Can I just say this stuff panics the shit out of me? I didn't think Artist was a career at risk, but a year ago mathematicians felt safe. I just don't understand acting like it's not happening. You have people insisting these models can't do things *in principle* they've already demonstrated.
AI companies are literally pulping rare books and authors are out here going "sorry I got addicted :/" and all the "well lets not get hysterical" assholes on bluesky are going "well let's not get hysterical. maybe it's fine!" fucking library of alexandria shit. we are headed for a new dark age
it was extremely obvious that Hank Green had an unhealthy relationship with LLMs when he invited that weird e/acc guy on his channel. I suspect it's a lot weirder than he's even admitting.
Sorry but if I a pedestrian am waiting more than 10 seconds to cross a street your city is BROKEN
Imagine if hundreds of people died in hurricane or floods smashing through Europe Heatwaves have already killed that many ppl. They are a silent killer in that they dont generate outrage or fear. Hope this by @economist.com helps save lives as Europeans wake up to danger bsky.app/profile/eate...

I know I’m a fucking asshole because I love to flop dramatically into a lunch booth and say “yeah I was on the phone with France all morning”
sorry, you're asking if you can widen my gyre? take me to dinner first
We need to make parking apps illegal. The idea that I have to give my full legal name and number and email and payment info to park in a public garage is fucking insane
I think I got one of the last planes out of the sud ouest. Feeling very fucked up rn
There’s a woman in front of me on this plane watching the Michael Jackson biopic, and she’s fallen asleep and stopped it on the frame where Michael is filming Thriller and he’s in his zombie costume. It’s been frozen like that for an hour now. I don’t know what that means, but probably something
The popo is taking bsky away from me because I refuse to age verify. Posting this from international waters
i don't know for how much longer I can keep typing strings of numbers into boxes
New Tab by Guillaume Morissette is so good I want to only read books about being depressed and existing in French and English and hating both
I started calling soccer “football” as an inside joke with myself because I do that because I’m one of the most annoying people alive. But I’ve actually started changing my dialect and now just say football sometimes. So I’m making a deliberate effort to say soccer lest the colonial powers win
Tech-free learning for the rich, learning-free tech for the rest of us.
🎯 “An elite consensus that AI-assisted learning might be fine for hoi polloi but not for future leaders at the most selective institutions cannot be far-off now“ The coming class divide on AI: tech-free learning at elite institutions, AI-centered learning everywhere else.
My actual concern in the marriage rate falling conversation is that dual income households have a permanent advantage over single income ones, and when you combine that with the gender gap single women are the most economically vulnerable population. The solution to this is not increasing marriage
What all of this is—from the post left to the far right—is a deep discomfort with the very small amount of political power single women have managed to grab in the last few years. This is so “unnatural” by every traditional cultural accounting it’s breaking brains across the political spectrum
Briahna Joy Gray's guest, Magdalene Taylor, claims that young women are embarrassed to have boyfriends because it's "Republican coded" and their biggest fear is being called a "pick-me."
the dog is BARKING and jumping around please someone do something about this
when did this happen. that people can just bring dogs into restaurants
something truly horrible has happened to me: a British family with a dog has sat next to me at this coffee shop
Paris is such a weird city for me I feel like I have a random memory on every little street
