One thing that Hearst, my former employer, did a great job of was teaching us bystander intervention— how to calmly and efficiently shut down behavior that looked like potential harassment in the workplace. Would love to see more employers include bystander intervention in anti/harassment materials.

These viruses have been known problems in Korea for so long that there’s literally a M*A*S*H episode about them. People work their whole careers on viruses most people have never heard of…so that you never have to hear about them.

Reckon its a symptom of "Early Access" being the new norm in games? Usually when a SP game gets a roadmap or regular updates after launch, its because it released "unfinished". Now its jarring when a game comes out complete and doesn't need to keep being patched for months/years.

A few weeks ago CBC reporter Sheena Goodyear reached out to me for comment on the new Spinosaurus paper. I said I couldn’t, because of Epstein connection Nathan Myhrvold’s involvement with it. We got to talking about how paleontology - especially dinosaur research- remains hostile to women. 🧪

This, to me, is the root of it: the left is always going to be more stuffy, constrained and dogmatic because *the left believes that oppression exists and matters.* This is a turnoff to a certain sort of person who does not wish to believe this. But reality wins eventually.

I think the collapse of print newspapers and the end of linear TV habits has created a context collapse for news. Where once day to day reporting and investigation and lifestyle sat side by side in one package, now they live as seperate things in people's minds, with reality warping effects

It's a snow and wind storm today. Spud does not approve.
Panel 1: the panel is shaded with warm colours, A dog and a person stand infront of a door and the dog says "sister! I wish to go outside."

Panel 2: the door is opened, the outside is cool and blue, while the inside is warm coloured. There is wind blowing the person's hair back and the dogs ears and jowels back.

Panel 3: , back to full warm shading, the dog and person are back indoors as the dog prances away looking back at her. "Sister, it is cold, do a couch wiggle instead."

Panel 4: the beagle is upside down on the couch wiggling.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are sitting at a little bonfire, gazing restfully into the flickering flames.
Blue: Do you ever think of the ways your life could've gone differently?
Green: No.
Blue: Like if you could start over with everything that you know now?
Green: Nope. The odds of finding you again in the right place at the right time are way too low.
Blue: You'd rather have me than a new chance?
Green: Having you is the best possible life.

No matter how hard people try to convince us having empathy is wrong, it is right. No matter how hard people try to convince us that diversity is a weakness, it is a strength. No matter how hard people try to convince us that love is limited, it is unlimited.
