Lots of life anxiety comes from worrying about your future self. Combat it by telling your future self to fuck off at least twice every day.

The primary objective of journalism is supposed to be telling the truth. It is a DECISION on the part of USA Today to know that new details have emerged about this case and to refuse to update an old story that is still circulating and still shaming Jane Doe.

Once I found out about it, I contacted the reporter and asked him to retract the piece--or at minimum add an editor's note acknowledging the NYT reporting about how Jane Doe did NOT tell police that she consented to her rape. Thus far, the publication has refused to do so.

Ironically, my original interview with the journalist I spoke with was primarily about how "inconsistencies" can come from gender bias in investigatory processes and then be blamed on survivors. It was the inspiration for this thread--but none of these points made it into any USA Today article:

And that led to my words appearing in a victim-blaming article written by a journalist I have never met about how Jane Doe's story was "inconsistent."

Earlier this week, I agreed to interviews with two USA Today journalists. They wrote fantastic articles about the Cornell case that I'm proud to have been a part of. What I did not know is that their employer considers interviews to proprietary and opens up recordings to be used by any journalist.

" People dont like that theyll have to reasearch a bit instead if jumping to conclusions" For this, I also blame AI. People are so used to have everything spoon-fed by AI and algorithms, they're too lazy to invest a couple of seconds to fact-check for themselves. Man. Kinda scares me that..

I'll say with experience from the South, too - you leave white people alone, and they'll start self-dividing on class, or ancestral grudges, or whether they're a Ford family or a Chevy family, and I wish to God I was joking about that last one.

If you think an artist's style looks like AI but you can scroll back through their portfolio and see them doing the same work before 2020, congrats, you're not looking at an AI grifter. You're looking at one of the original victims whose entire style AI stole.

"According to city data, only 2% of the estimated 2,674 homes in need of repair have been completed. Since the team last gave an update on recovery in March, 19 new repair jobs have been completed" The #STLtornado report was given at the 9/30 Budget Committee. IMO, the item wasn't properly noticed.

Friday at work
A comic made of four post it notes about people asking me if I'm afraid I'll be replaced by AI. The first panel asks "aren't you afraid AI will replace you at your job?". In the second panel I start thinking about a skull on a pedestal I saw yesterday. In the third panel me and my colleague are standing in front of it. My colleague asks "whose skull is that???" As I say "do we have a skull cleaning kit?". In the fourth panel I'm back to the present conversation and answer "I mean bitch can try."

Another moment when sports is useful, when it gets right at the truth of things. People want so damn badly to move on from reports of harm, from having to even think about the harm that men have done to women. Playing well in a game allows that. It's crude, yes, but it's common. ANYTHING to move on.

NEAR DARK is still the best American vampire film. It rejects most European/gothic tropes and rewrites the vampires as purely American myth figures: bikers, cowboys, traveling serial killers, Civil War soldiers, and gangsters.
