"Terrible things are happening outside ... poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart; men, women and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared." — Anne Frank (Jan 13, 1943)

A lot that's bad here, but the undergraduate psychology essay assignment was for 650 words?! Assuming 150 words per paragraph, that's not even a 5-paragraph essay.

I'm starting to think it's really just me who finds all these AI word games-- because that's all they are, word games-- supremely uninteresting. If there's not a human mind and soul behind the words, WHO CARES PULL THE PLUG.

I'm watching "The Crown" (like, a decade behind, I know). I'm in season 2, and the Marburg papers were just discovered and published; the Queen finally understands how lucky it was that her uncle abdicated, because he was prepared to sell the UK out to Hitler. Wish we had a comparable out here.

I'll never get over how the best line in all of noir – "I've got eight slugs in me. One's lead, and the rest are bourbon" – doesn't come from Raymond Chandler or Dashiell Hammett, but Calvin and Hobbes
Calvin dressed as a noir detective, saying "Yeah. That's me, Tracer Bullet. I've got eight slugs in me. One's lead, and the rest are bourbon. The drink packs a wallop, and I pack a revolver. I'm a private eye."

I really do believe that one of the most ominously anti-feminist intellectual developments over the past decade is the emergence of the fiction that motherhood, caregiving, and housekeeping are somehow separate and insulated from the exploitations of capitalism—rather than central to it.

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

To put in perspective, the total cost of U.S. military aid to Ukraine throughout the entire conflict is .005% of the total stock market cap lost since the beginning of Trump's presidency. If you wanted a sense of the scale of how utterly incomprehensibly stupid our political policies have become.
