I now fervently believe this. Relatedly, I think celebrating good news and embracing joy are equally radical. You have to remember what you’re fighting for. We cannot sustainably organize around sorrow.

ai is a rhetorical technology. when it produces a list of permissible targets, its value is not producing targets but producing permission

We’re out here letting “online Superfund sites” drive the culture and wondering why everything feels so toxic www.404media.co/we-have-lear...

We Have Learned Nothing About Amplifying Morons

“Looksmaxxers” are losers and freaks, but we let them steer the culture when we adopt their terminology.

Reading Shane Burley's essay in Read This When Things Fall Apart and being reminded that the concentration camps we are now all fully aware of (and have known about for the better part of a decade) are a response to fears about domestic resource scarcity under increasing climate change volatility.

it is not enough to disable the feature that produces an AI summary of my emails at the top of my emails in gmail, I need a button that delivers an electrical shock to the person who thought it was a good idea

You can't... repeal... a scientific finding. At that point it's just called lying about it.

If you're in climate comms and you're not already splicing these words with images of the climate disasters the people of this country endure every damn day then what are you waiting for?

Wild to me that the takeaway to learning that people don’t want to buy AI-generated art would be to hide it until people give up on caring about it. Like, ma’am, I will die on this hill. I only want to read books written by people. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/08/b...

Quoted text: “If you hide that there’s A.I., it sells just fine,” she said.

Ms. West, who also teaches classes on how to write with A.I., has gotten blowback from opponents of the technology, including occasional death threats on social media. But she believes that in time, A.I. generated fiction will become widespread and popular.

“Eventually” Ms. West said, “readers will not care.”

i hope i live to see the day that journalism is more widely understood by its funders as a public service / utility rather than as a vanity project or potential revenue generator

it's funny how often the new york times' "first entries in a live blog covering a breaking news event" are so vague as to be actively harmful. it happens almost every day. maybe don't run a live blog if you aren't willing to describe things anyone can see with their own eyes

My position on taking action. And on the important space between everything and nothing.

And everything is flawed, if you want to look at it that way. The analogy that has helped me most is this: in Hurricane Katrina, hundreds of boat-owners rescued people—single moms, toddlers, grandfathers—stranded in attics, on roofs, in flooded housing projects, hospitals, and school buildings. None of them said, I can’t rescue everyone, therefore it’s futile; therefore my efforts are flawed and worthless, though that’s often what people say about more abstract issues in which, nevertheless, lives, places, cultures, species, rights are at stake. They went out there in fishing boats and rowboats and pirogues and all kinds of small craft, some driving from as far as Texas and eluding the au- thorities to get in, others refugees themselves working within the city. There was bumper-to-bumper boat-trailer traffic—the celebrated Cajun Navy—going toward the city the day after the levees broke. None of those people said, I can’t rescue them all. All of them said, I can rescue someone, and that’s work so meaningful and important I will risk my life and defy the authorities to do it. And they did.
