Part of why I don't like the AI-or-bust economy is the constant flopsweat of people on the news who say this HAS to work. Quit making everyone so anxious. Goddamn. If this is the next Google then why are you acting like this? I don't remember being told to buy an iPhone at gunpoint.

You guys, on my train home today, a man and his partner had the cutest white cat in a carrier. He got off at my stop and before he stood up, the cat climbed on his shoulder and *rode him home*.

Did anybody get an Anthropic email today? I'm confused. I disputed claim on two of my books, and those are the two showing up where no claim was disputed.

What use was it to bring the writer and activist Chanel Miller to campus in the spring just for fraternity brothers to scroll, bored, on their phones as she movingly shared her experience as Emily Doe, the victim of Brock Turner? As I wrote at the time, I was floored and dismayed as I sat in the audience with one of my brilliant undergraduates; we heard Miller’s shattering account of being sexually assaulted by Turner behind a dumpster at Stanford University after a fraternity party. Her talk was riveting, and there was so much to learn from it. And yet many of the male students who hailed predominantly from fraternities — 15 percent of each chapter was required to be in attendance — were so tuned out that Miller commented ruefully: “You know, this has been my hardest gig, because they didn’t turn down the house lights. I’m not sure how you professors do it, because it’s so hard looking out at this sea of mildly disgruntled faces. I mean, I’m sure you’re all very moved, but …,” Miller smiled. The implication being, it didn’t seem like it, from her angle.

Look, I'm not going to waste time arguing when they allege that Stonehenge was Tartarian or whatever. But this is SAGRADA FAMILIA. Girl, just because you don't know the history doesn't mean no one does. They started it in 1882! There are records! Photographs!

You guys, I may have committed a grave error. I snapped back at the loony conspiracy theorist I went to HS with. My cousin posted a pic of Sagrada Famila. She pops up alleging that it's from the Tartarian Empire.

So much of schools "responding to rape" is preventing the legal system from doing so. This is a report on seven adults who committed serious felonies for which there is a legal system to remind them and their pals that they are felonies.

Nothing like a hard deadline to kick my ass in gear. I was supposed to write two chapters this weekend. I lost most of yesterday dealing with my sick cat. I sat down today and powered through them both without stopping. 4 thousand words.

My cat is okay-ish. 1K in testing later and we don't know why she seized, but she seems fine now, so 🤷‍♀️. But I feel like I reached my limit today. Work, and life, and in-law worries, and THE STATE OF THE FUCKING WORLD. If my soul cat dies I just don't even know....

Nothing like the cat having a massive seizure to start the weekend off with a bang. She seems more or less fine now, except that the vet isn't sure what caused it. 🫠

It's "effective altruism" in a nutshell. They convince themselves that AI will solve all the world's problems in the future, so therefore it's actually *good* for them to funnel all their time and money into that instead of doing anything about the problems all around them right now.

Four acts and his own live band quit, so ... not such an impossible position. Sheeran could have told the stadium owners to get fucked and become more popular than ever. People would have been falling over themselves to offer him venues for the tour. It's only impossible if you fear the oligarchs.
