I gave blood yesterday, and the differences I observed between female and male donors at the post-donation recovery area / snack table were...notable.

Meet Backpack, your 2026 Fat Bear Week champion. Backpack is 20 years old, weighs about 1,000 pounds and got his nickname because, as a cub, he loved riding on his mom's back across the Brooks River.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

Let's assume for a moment that "the left" takes a "massive generational L" and AI is everywhere and we all have to use it. I think we'll all be ok because it takes like 30 seconds to learn how to use because it was designed so dumb fucking babies can use it

Nearly every "beneficial" use case proposed for GenAI is simply offering up a techno-utopian solution to a structural problem. Like, these folks would rather dump piles of money into AI boondoggles than address the structural issues that give rise to their supposed "beneficial" use case.

Once again.
Black and white photo of Marjane Satrapi with the quote:

"The world is not divided between East and West. You are American. I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you.

And our governments are very much the same."

I don't think it is only our job to teach students how to read long novels; it may also be our jobs to teach them how to live without an online surveillance state. To learn without intrusive apps. To swap notes. To write in a book's margins. To exist in their communities in slow, clunky, human ways.
