Art only has meaning if humans make it. That is its only value. “Art” without human input is just a facsimile and completely devoid of any meaning or merit. I don’t understand how these people don’t get that

Interesting analogy for the size of Ceres. Why do you suppose a giant would do such a thing?

and from Piazzi's scanty observations reconstructed the lost body's orbit. When he emerged from his figuring binge a few weeks later, he told astronomers where to point their telescopes. They did and, sure enough, there was the mislaid wanderer. Piazzi christened it Ceres and later measurements have revealed it as an orbiting island of jagged rock, 480 miles in diameter and with a surface area of 700,000 square miles-equivalent to the Confederate States had they been scooped up by the roots, formed to fit a giant's fist and hurled into the heavens.

I think two things can be true 1. Labour have destroyed trans people's civil rights, and don't deserve faith from trans people 2. Fixing trans rights is going to need many different approaches which includes mainstream orgs/parties trying to address transphobia in their ranks

I worked on a study about online nonconsensual image sharing. We were shocked by how many women found their images on 8chan forums where men posted challenges to each other like, “Find her workplace and get her fired,” or, “Get a nude photo of one of your girlfriend’s friends.”

Every time a discourse kicks off over whether AI music, literature or art will be "as good as" the real thing, I'm always amazed more people don't cite that **there already are** creative pursuits where human-free spectacles have been available for decades, and nobody has ever wanted to watch them.

I posted this in a Reddit discussion about welfare spending, and I’m sharing it here because, frankly, I feel like this is a reality that not enough non-disabled people seem to understand.

Here’s the thing - there’s this constant insistence surrounding the long term sick and getting them back to work. Yet, there’s never actually any acknowledgment to the reality of this, that long term sickness can affect your ability to do work, and, as a result, affects the willingness of employers to hire you. Sure, there’s anti-discrimination legislation to protect disabled people, but, the reality is, employers “hiring the best people for the job” can mean that many disabled people are shut out regardless.

... Do some of you just not realise that Labour have literally, in law, made trans people second tier citizens and contributed to the hate and marginalisation They face? Do you see queer people complaining about this as just being negative without ever asking about their reality?

"some v negative responses to posts about Burnham. I understand the cynicism. What I don't understand is the refusal to wait and see and to look for the positives.
Politics cannot be about perfection. It's compromise. It's effective communication... and persuasion. Why not prepare to be persuaded?

They quoted me in this New Yorker piece about AI today. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

“Let’s say there’s a world or time line I exist in where A.I. has been subject to regulation. It is ethical. It has no footprint environmentally,” the novelist Jeff VanderMeer, a prominent critic of A.I., told me over the phone. “With those guardrails in place, would I read an A.I. book? All I can say is no. And the reason is, in part, because I want to read something coming from a particular mind.” Using A.I., he said, “feels like a betrayal of the whole point of why you’re a writer.”

The magnificence of the mushroom

Post
I'm studying biotech and every time someone brings up mushrooms our current professeor will look either extremely excited or pained and go, "listen, mushrooms are neither plants nor animals nor something inbetween. We do not know what they are. Some are immortal. Some produce life-saving substances some are so closely related to humans that eating them may cause an allergic reaction against your own body. I cannot teach you about the mushrooms.

I believe fraternity hazing and military hazing and sports team hazing where men abuse each other is acclimating them into a broader culture of abuse where they will then believe it is their right to abuse other more vulnerable people. It’s so insidious. And that’s also why I think men defend it

Another thing about fraternities is that the hazing rituals where slightly older young men would physically, mentally emotionally and sometimes even sexually abuse slightly younger young men have always disturbed and upset me greatly. And it’s really telling that I’ve seen men defend those too

The rhetoric of ‘perfection’ is so telling here, just completely minimises the harm being done RIGHT NOW to trans people and immigrants and other vulnerable people. Violence is viewed as an ‘imperfection’, and anyone speaking out against it is seen as ‘cynical’ or ‘negative’.

What I don't understand is the refusal to wait and see and to look for the positives. Politics cannot be about perfection. It's compromise. It's effective communication... and persuasion.
