This weekend we were at an awesome play-in, and my daughter found a lonely pink unicorn that had been left behind. She asked the organizers if she could babysit it until its owner was found, and they said yes. So she named it Jessica. We went to a bookstore after the play-in, and once we got home...

Nothing bums me out more than being sent manuscripts to read that feel fake and come back 100% AI generated.

So proud of my brother Tommy, Ms. Mason’s lawyer : “Civic participation without fear of imprisonment is a cherished right that is critical to our system of democracy. The highest criminal court in Texas affirmed that right by letting the lower court’s acquittal stand,” said Thomas Buser-Clancy…

Ever wondered what we get up to in Slack? Running The Flytrap is a lot of work with many moving pieces and it's all done by real humans (despite Slack's repeated attempts to get us to activate its AI agent).

My son once tried to make a playlist of Ed Sheeran to pump himself up for a swim meet...which led us to dub his music "songs to drown by."

FWIW I also talk to New Yorkers every day who a) are madly in love with this mayor and b) CAMPAIGNED for Mamdani and then voted in the primaries, and c) can't afford the Vineyard during the summer. We both represent extremes, but my end actually works to build the world they want to live in.

Budgets are strong indicators of what is valued, and they also reflect hundreds of choices rather than one inevitable series of events. (Or you could say, "budgets are moral documents")

My neighborhood! We got two trees last year in front of our house and they’re lovely. We badly need more shade and fewer cars.

I'm a mother of three who studies the impact of artificial intelligence: here's what this guy needs to know about parenting with AI: --bring your kids to a bookstore or a library instead of letting ChatGPT write stories for them; --kids are being coached to die by suicide by these bots;

A Dr Seuss-style story written in seconds alerted me to the power – and perils – of the technology. But how can children embrace it without forgetting core skills?

I’m not saying my kids won’t have reasons to complain to their therapists about me. But I am saying all of my parenting mistakes are 100% human made. Give your kids the respect of messing up honestly.

They made a whole movie called Arco where the near future was like this. Spoiler alert: they lit the world on fire, and the far future just went back to hanging out with their kids.

Crowd sourcing here - what are good books on writing/editing/research/life that are paired with a companion journal or workbook? (not just standalone workbooks or with embedded exercises). Thanks!

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social @mayor.nyc.gov please pay attention. You HAVE to keep this dangerous tech out of our schools. Please declare a full "A.i." moratorium on 2K-12 for students and teachers NOW.

Can't imagine how horrible this will be for the relationships between kids and their elderly and immunocompromised relatives - we get my kids vaccined every year, in part, to protect my dad and make sure they can breathe in his face and climb all over him without getting him sick. I hate this man.

In all seriousness this is why the @aimoratoriumnyc.bsky.social is fighting so damn hard this year to get a moratorium in our schools.
