Thoughts are my own, or not. Maybe a burner, maybe not. Retweets aren't endorsements, or maybe. In this post-truth world, I guess we're just saying anything. Why can't we all just have picnics, healthcare, and watch reality TV.

a lot of my frustration with the LLM onslaught has in fact been disappointment at realizing how many people do just want to pretend (at work, creatively, interpersonally)

This is Donald Trump's homelife but in South Africa. I said it a million years ago and I'm saying it now. Trump & Musk are the same dude. Complete frauds who convinced a slice of Stupid Americans they were smart and shrewd and got the media to do all the work for them. That's why they get along

This is another example of testimonial ads pretending to be editorial. This is exactly the same play as the Marty Scorsese piece in the NYT loving AI. These are paid advertisements. At Eater, we got in trouble for writing ad entries in the same voice as our reporting and were ordered to stop

Redzone absolutely fuels my ADHD. We live in the twilight of democracy right now, but it's so invigorating to focus on not paying any attention to Jaba the Hut's ooze on everything. Might just give me the edge I need to DROP OFF MY MAIL IN BALLOT AT MY LOCAL DROP BOX AND NOT THE USPS.

Thanks to the policies of Donald Trump and his Republican allies in Congress, the average family has had to spend an additional $3,800+ since Trump took office—on housing, energy costs, groceries, and health care. Trump's tariffs and his war with Iran aren't helping one bit.

Beginning my research seminar, as always, with Lynn Hunt's essay How Writing Leads to Thinking (and Not the Other Way Around). Should be mandatory reading in light of the impact of AI. www.historians.org/perspectives...
Writing is stressful. Sitting in my computer chair my neck and shoulder muscles almost immediately tense up as I dig around in my brain for the best phrase or even any coherent string of words, whether I am writing an essay like this one, a book chapter, a letter of recommendation, or an email message to a friend. Writing is time-consuming. It’s a great way to pass the time on a long airplane flight because you lose track of the passage of time altogether. It’s even better, from that point of view exclusively, than watching an episode of Mad Men on your laptop. Writing means many different things to me but one thing it is not: writing is not the transcription of thoughts already consciously present in my mind. Writing is a magical and mysterious process that makes it possible to think differently.
