🔥🔥🔥🔥 “All of the speculation and hype around A.I. is hiding the fact that the technology isn’t just large language models or agents or data centers. It is the backbone of a superstructure that merges regressive politics with unchecked economic power in the guise of technological innovation.”

Book review: The Dragon Has Some Complaints is John Wiswell at the height of his powers
We didn't plan on falling this hard for a three-headed dragon, but John Wiswell had other plans with his latest novel, The Dragon Has Some Complaints.

When enough rain falls in Maltahöhe, Namibia, millions of desert lilies bloom across the landscape for just a few days each year. This natural phenomenon briefly transforms the arid desert into a sea of flowers almost overnight. IG: @ earthpix
Lots of arguments for Magneto, Ozymandias and Killmonger, but my money’s always on Darth Revan. I will also argue that Jareth the Goblin King was neither right nor wrong but behaving exactly the way that an ancient fey acts when some dipshit teenager invokes him to steal her brother.
