When the recipe calls for 1 beet...
A giant beet next to a small beet. The giant beet is about 20 times the mass.

"people are anthropomorphizing LLMs because they are so astonishingly good at processing human thought and language" people will anthropomorphize a chair if you put the stitches in the right place.

There is no gray area on Scrooge. He is the most explicitly caricatured figure in all of Dickens. A Sistine Chapel level finely filigreed precise depiction of every miserly trait boiled down to an aromatic reduction. A Platonic ideal of the form.

We are a broken nation. Hundreds of thousands of Haitians were living and working legally, paying taxes, and contributing. Haiti remains wholly unsafe. But Trump hates Haitians, and the White House wanted videos of Black people in chains, so they stripped them of status and turned on the cameras.

Haiti TPS has been TERMINATED.
Those with terminated TPS are in our nation Illegally. They have two options: LEAVE IMMEDIATELY or be DEPORTED.

Underneath is a screenshot of a video showing two Haitian men in chains being led to the aircraft. I didn’t post the video, but it’s vile.

I think it's key to understanding their worldview that they imagine a world not *without* immigrants, but one in which immigrants' inferiority is permanently asserted and they become a subservient caste. All these people worship the Gulf States.

Everybody in the "climate space" (which means everyone on earth...) needs to understand these mind-blowing figures. Google's "total electricity consumption jumped from 31 terawatt hours (TWh) in 2024 to 43 TWh in 2025." In ONE year. The AI corporate arms race is eating the world.

Fireflies and Penstemon digitalis, 2026 This is a real photo taken in my yard, made with many stacked 4-second exposures. In all, this photo represents about 8-10 minutes worth of firefly flashes in a small area. Several species are represented here.
A real photograph made of many stacked exposures of fireflies at night. In the foreground are white-blooming native penstemon flowers, with out of focus purple blue flag irises in the background. Hundreds of firefly flashes in hues from greenish yellow to orange are streaked across the photo.

When you see the story about how the world now has its first trillionaire, and when you see the story about how laboratories in Congo have run out of supplies to test for Ebola, it is important to understand that in many ways these are the same story.

It’s a pretty weird week when a guy who wants to be a trillionaire is simultaneously getting headlines for the economy-shattering IPO expected Friday and the racist pogroms he is accused of stoking — but these stories are viewed as separate and in no way connected or prescient of the future.

The second best phrase I’ve heard for when someone has the zipper of their pants undone is the Chinese 天安门开了. It means “The Gate of Heavenly Peace is open.” The best phrase I’ve heard is the Spanish la farmacia está abierta y el doctor dormido. It means “the pharmacy is open, and the doctor asleep.”

I'm sorry but I can't help myself: the best fruit discourse is poisoned by conflating "average one you get at the grocery store" with "best you've ever had.". The classic example is peach, the average grocery store peach is dogshit and the best you've ever had is a transcendent experience
