Our minds aren’t equipped to handle AI
AI is junk food for the mind: easy, tempting and ultimately very bad for you.

I like watching Buffy reaction videos and while I know it’s at least a little performative and to drive engagement in the comments, it’s so annoying when people act like they’re just noticing Dawn in season five. She’s not, like, the biggest character in the early seasons but come on.

Anyone know a good Notion alternative? I used it to track and inventory everything: tasks, wishlist, bookmarks, reading list, travel plans, notes, recipes, groceries, etc. but those absurd price increases are waaay out of my price range.

I would like media to care more about the reality that tech tycoons want to kill people than what they’re imagining about AI wanting to kill people. We have multi-millionaires (with support from billionaires!) calling for ethnic cleansing, a thing that has happened in living memory. Not theoretical!

Watching Homeland for the first time, and it’s impressive how the show gradually becomes more anti-US imperialism and anti-Zionist. It reads as though, just like Carrie, the more the showrunners and writers learn the more they get radicalized themselves.

The logo itself is very old and doesn't fit with the website design; at the minimum, it needs some updates. The other two, like I said, are fine for a profile picture but feel generic and impersonal for defining a personal brand.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day
Fighting crime full-time as Spider-Man in a world that doesn't remember him—and the pressure of seeing his old friends move on without him—sparks a change in Peter Parker he may not have the power to control. But that transformation might also be the only thing that can stop a shocking new threat to the city and those he loves - a powerful villain no one can even see.
