One of the things that is going to change is that we’re never ever again going to be able to be dominated by public officials who tell us, ‘Trust the experts,’” Mr. Kennedy said during the Tuesday session.

“If somebody tells you, ‘Masks work, trust the experts,’ A.I. may tell you otherwise,” he added. “If somebody tells you, ‘Social distancing works, trust the experts,’ A.I. may correct that. And if somebody tells you that a vaccine will prevent transmission and infection, or you need to take it to protect your grandmother, A.I. may say it actually doesn’t do that.”

Google is uniquely invasive. No other company surveils you so deeply or makes escape so difficult. They don’t just harvest and monetize your data—they hand it to governments on demand. Breaking free is tough, but possible. Here is how to escape. psychopete1.substack.com/p/the-infini...

I am so so sick, at almost 40, of brands not making tall pants. Every year I say I'm finally going to find some comfortable sweatpants that are long enough and don't make me look like a dumbass, and every year I fail.

Just finished listening to Lonesome Dove on audiobook from the library. Now watching the miniseries on VHS that I happened to find for 2 bucks at an antique mall while in the middle of the book. Peak.

I spent the day yesterday with my son at Flag Ponds nature park hunting for fossils, and a nice family lent us their sifter. I found a piece of a shark tooth, and wondered out loud which shark it could be. The father of this family, who had also chosen to spend the day off with his kids outside 1/2

Worth noting Hunter S. Thompson wrote, arguably, the best piece of traditional journalism in his entire career about Salazar's assassination.

Just once in my life I would like to see a Democrat being interviewed by right wing media like Fox News or right wing media like every single other outlet treat their questions with the contempt they deserve. I know it's not going to fix everything or maybe even anything but how much coverage and how much groundswell of excitement from the base do you think it would inspire if when asked about "boys in girls sports" or some other stupid fucking culture war distraction one of them finally said "What the fuck are you talking about man? You sound like a dumb asshole right now."

What's the worst that's going to happen the New York Times is gonna work overtime to make sure you don't get elected? They were already doing that buddy.

You simply say "Are you stupid? Do you think I am stupid? And do you think all of the people watching at home are stupid? Everyone sees through what you are doing. Using one group as a scapegoat for the very real problems everyone has – all caused by Republicans by the way – unlike this fake one you have made up. Dumb asshole."

Just go on the attack for once instead of sitting there trying to please your enemy who is in the process of trying to humiliate you.

And if you want to say something else true that almost no Democrat ever says for some reason you can top it off with a “Every single Republican in our lifetime has sought to make our lives worse in every way possible. I’d like to try to stop that.”

The way people talk about classic video games makes me really sad sometimes. Makes me think about the guy who said that "everything needs to be remade eventually", because I think this is an unspoken/unexplored thought in the minds of many. It's just kind of tragic to me.

Just get one of these. There's literally tens of thousands available, they still work, and you get one of the greatest video game libraries of all-time. It's from a better era. And it won't let you down.
