Competence, expertise, and public spirit are all seen as bad qualities within the GOP right now. At what point do the rank-and-file get fed up with this?

I realize that pub crawls are all the rage, but I truly feel as though there could be an immense market for library crawls, bakery crawls, museum crawls, bookstore crawls, and greenhouse crawls.

I posted a joke the other day about how my kid wanted a Mickey song that didn't exist, and a bunch of people were like "just AI to make it." I understand needing to please a toddler, but man--that's just not how I want him to think about music at all. It's not a vending machine.

Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately
Hello Bone Colleagues, 
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

There is a weird thing in some areas of the left that putting effort into self-improvement is “tryhard” or “grind” behavior. I agree, that attitude is lame. Being strong feels good. Having a disciplined regimen and realizing results from that is good, too. We should own that.

interesting that conservatives were militantly “we must reward hustle” when the target was affirmative action at elite universities and now, when faced with the success of south asians and other groups, it is “i think we are too meritocratic”

Teddy Roosevelt was a progressive Republican, but he’d be in the Democratic Party or an independent in today’s configuration. He was into busting up monopolies and conserving pristine undeveloped land.

I’m not sure. I haven’t heard of him, but I’m more out-of-touch than most when it comes to knowing who actors and other celebrities are. I hope your country chooses to prioritize keeping the BBC and other beneficial public goods. We can’t let the oligarchs drain us of absolutely *everything*.

The Pope seems not to have an account here, so here is a screenshot from the Nazi site. That he remains there is disappointing, if understandable. But I think it worth posting to show what he is saying about ‘AI’, and how infinitely preferable it is to what we hear from other political leaders.
Pope Leo XIV on Twitter: 
‘In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.’

With i/o I made my own personal “optimized” i/o, picking what I felt was the stronger of the brightside vs darkside versions. That’s how I consume i/o to this day. I still don’t quite get the point of releasing two versions instead of auditioning different mixes prior to finalizing the release.

Truth about all 6 Music contemporary band names. 1. All bands to have banal uninflected 2 word names - Wedding Guest; Nit Nurse. 2. If a band is called something like Ladywoman it’s all male; if it’s called Penis, all female; if it has no vowels or phonetic spelling, queer.
