Global model ensembles are in strong agreement that a prolonged &anomalous nearly West-wide autumn heatwave will develop this week & persist for 10+ days. While some daytime records may be set, this event will be more notable for its persistence & breadth. [Thread]

Map showing predicted temperature anomalies in early October from the ECMWF ensemble across the western U.S. Nearly the entire region is painted red and pink, indicating widespread very warm anomalies.

My grand unified theory of this moment, after a few months of intense and variously high-stakes engagement with various corporate and public systems, is that pretty much nothing works. We just have each other.

On one hand it's a reassurance that a large chunk of the enlisted leadership has been pretty "fuck this shit" about these losers' fascistic scheming, on the other hand a big purge before what everyone knows is going to be a contentious power shift is a concerning move.

The idea of relentlessly trying to tune AI music to some magical sweet spot entirely to your personal taste, like… how or why would you even define your personal taste in such a limited way? Especially given how much music is connection and human feeling, even if you’re not aware of it. Crazy stuff

"Many experts believe that estrangements between adult children and their parents are becoming an epidemic in the U.S., just like divorce in the 1970s" The only "epidemic" of divorce in the 70s was from women finally being able to leave shitty marriages. This writer is a hack piece of garbage.

Panel 1: Heading: “Discussing Movies with Friends”
Three people sit around a table discussing a movie they just saw. The conversation goes:
Blue Person: I think it’s his best work
Yellow Person: Really?
Purple Person: It was pretty good

Panel 2: Heading: “Online Movie Discourse”
Yellow Guy is being dragged to hell by terrifying ghouls. They scream “WE SAW A BOOB AND IT SCARED US”

It's too depressing and obnoxious to write about, but virtually all of the doomy/horny AI hyperventilating is transparently displaced anxiety about our fucked climate and political situation. Even rich idiots know it's bad and being permitted to get worse. They're trying to write their own ending.

So, Banksy bought a used yacht, repaired it and retrofitted it to serve as a rescue boat to save migrants in the central Mediterranean. The whole project cost the artist $860,000. Since 2020, the boat has saved more than 3,800 people. londondaily.com/banksy-funds...

our whole lives have been defined by a hyperbolically dishonest opposition treated with kid gloves and false balance in the press. dems put up with non-stop fake controversies, left ideas are misrepresented by journalists who know better but play dumb to demonstrate their lack of liberal bias.

Horrifying abominations, half carrion crawler, half dragon, inhabit the ruins of a strange castle in an otherworldly place. The art and text in this module was kind of green, I think to show the influence of the main villain.
