In my most generous moods towards AI, I think it's functional as enterprise level software for data analysis, and is only really a functional consumer product for shitposts. Yet the economics of it seem to have convinced SV shitheads that its worst usecases are revolutionary.

Of all the things AI is supposed to offer consumers, music seems by far the least compelling. I could see the utility of text summaries, or making replacement-level graphics and videos, for bullshit and jokes and stuff. I cant think of a single desire for which "AI music" is a solution.

In another world Israel's offensive in Gaza petered out in November/December 2023 as they expended their entire strategic stockpile of aerial bombs, as the US followed its own laws and moral obligations and did not provide new supply.

Lyta slipped her leash, ran down the alley, turned the corner and WAITED WITH HER HEAD STICKING OUT for me to catch up so she could run across the street. She got distracted by smells and I grabbed her but that brat was TROLLING.

My very limited grasp of Hungarian politics is that this is basically like Mitt Romney was given a full license and mandate to unload his anger, distain and frustration with MAGA. Not woke 2, but back to 2010, at gunpoint.

Greek life is so cool because, even if they aren't cooking meth in the basement and some are, they create similar disincentives to blow the whistle or confront other members as the mafia: doing the right thing risks blowing up your housing situation, current social life, and future networks.

There were more men in a single documented gang rape at one school than the number of competitive trans athletes nationally. But I’ve heard a lot more politicians being asked about protecting girls from one of these scenarios and not another… I’ll let you guess which is which.

The main reason you haven’t heard about campus sexual violence in a few years is because Trump and SCOTUS have made it much, much harder for survivors to come forward. You might vaguely remember that Title IX was a big battleground in his first term. And that we lost.

The immediately following sentence seems to make this pretty damning for Biden. It is indeed true that a PTOUS has exceptional discretionary power to suspend military assistance, so why didn't he do so? Especially after three State Dept bodies said Israel was in violation of US arms transfer law.

The Situation Room connected the call. Biden jumped in. “Bibi, man, what the fuck are you doing?” He gripped the phone tight. “You think I’m Santa Claus? No Santa in Israel, pal.” When Netanyahu asked what he meant, Biden said he could cut off military aid to Israel with the snap of a finger, leaving the country on its own. Netanyahu retorted that Israel would defend itself even without the United States. (We later learned that he concluded from this call that we were cutting military supplies.)

Any analysis of the Iran War that doesn't start and end with the fact that an entire cottage industry of think tankers and lobbyists and their friends in Congress were frothing at the mouth for literal decades for this got exactly what they wanted and it failed immediately and totally is wrong.
