NEW: I had the pleasure of profiling Paulina Borsook, whose book Cyberselfish, about the early tech industry, is a great key to understanding why it’s so bad today. For her trouble, Borsook has had a very weird and bad 25 years, something she calls “a curse.” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

A Tech Prophet Finally Gets Her Second Coming

In 2000, Paulina Borsook published a book foretelling the anti-government sentiments of the tech world. Now that it’s too late, people are ready to listen.

Enjoyed this Esquire feature on the Churchwell brothers. IMO, they are among the last elegantly dressed men in the United States. Notably, neither are "fashion influencers." They are both distinguished cardiologists with great taste and a lifetime relationship with the same tailor.

I want to highlight this part of her rant because it's incredibly dismissive of Indigenous communities' centuries-long fight against environmental racism. While nothing in her article (if I can call it that) demonstrates mature, acceptable behavior, this part is the most egregious.

Yes, we know AI is using up resources. So does driving a car or a plane. So does building a new home. So do a lot of things. Humans have always used up Earth’s resources and usually not nicely. There are reservations and other Indigenous communities in Canada that have never had clean water and have been ravaged by pipeline construction. But somehow that’s been okay for the past fifty years or a hundred years, and very few people scream about that. But suddenly, AI is the enemy, not everything else we’ve been doing all along.

Suddenly YOUR water might not be so clean, so now it’s a Big Deal.

The Boeing Integrated Manned Interplanetary Spacecraft (IMIS) was a 1968 design for a Mars mission. Boeing estimated that this design could launch its first mission in 1985. It would use five NERVA rocket stages, each fired and discarded throughout the 460 day flight.

Here is a drawing I made in 2017 when I didn't know I had other issues aside from a bleeding disorder:

An ink drawing from 2017. There are 3 Doodles of me grimacing and saying "ow" from different spots on my body. The 3rd me shows a little ghost poking me with a needle, causing the invisible pains.

i know you know you have the right to remain silent when being questioned by law enforcement, but the way that right is interpreted by the courts is actually very deranged and you might enjoy learning the specifics of how to properly invoke that right. just something to think about today!

#Supergirl is a direct follow-up to a very well liked movie, features Krypto (who everyone loves), has Jason Momoa as Lobo (which fans said they always wanted) & stars an actress everyone agrees was a standout in HotD. The only reason there’s a hate campaign against it is because “Girl.”

Daily bunny no.3340 is sick of communal living

Bunnies are characters from "The Young Ones", in a dilapidated and dirty shared home. The four bunnies fall loosely into 80's university archetypes, such as a punk and a campus socialist, and are arguing with each other.

Daily bunny no.3320 knows your every move

two bunnies play the game "Battleship", across from one another. One has a captain's cap, while the other just has a sailor's cap. A third bunny, climbing over the top of the battleship game, covertly observes the captain's board to see the ship placements.

Daily bunny no.3317 will never go out of style

A band of bunnies are dressed like the band "Sha Na Na", with the central three wearing garish gold jackets and tight pants, while two others wear sleeveless shirts as all of them sing and dance. A sign behind them on the stage says "Ba Na Na" in yellow-orange letters.

Imagine if bipartisan education funding met the most basic needs first. Imagine if it prioritized students being fed and clothed and learning in schools with fully-functioning plumbing and heating and A/C. Imagine if we fully funded and implemented K-12 sex ed before funding AI training.

A drawing of the artist walking around with a silly smile, while a carabiner holding keys, connected to her pants, is making loud CLINK CLANK CLONK sound.

Above her is a thought bubble with a robot bearing the caption "Lesbotron 3000", also making loud CLINK CLANK CLONK sounds.
