Media is afraid to call Trump economic policy what it is: an abysmal failure. They talk about it as a matter of toughness instead of incompetence because the media treats Republicans like hapless children. They are not. They are nefarious morons who are here to destroy your retirement savings.

I'm sorry but if a few edgelords with big early-2010s energy can break your social media website, you are simply bad at building a website.

The first version of your field should be its worst version. Darwin knew less about evolution than anyone who believed in evolution. This is why the ancient provenance of your #astrology / #qi / #TCM / #homeopathy / whatever bullshit is so unimpressive to me.

Appreciate the thought here but the reality is that as soon as a social media website costs more than $0, 99% of users will leave. The adoption rate for blue checkmarks was less than 1%, and they could mostly charge that to the Klan's business credit card.

Given how much movie marketing lives or dies on trailers, which can get tens or hundreds of millions of views, I want to nominate the trailer for #28YearsLater for outstanding achievement in not being just another slowed-reverb pop remix in the background of a bunch of spoilers.

Something that recent AI horror movies (Afraid, M3gan, etc.) all nail is that the problem is that "humanity" is not designing large language models. Investors raised with Silicon Valley cultural values are. AIs are children. Look at their parents.
