Devolution of media: Film: Every frame studied, every sound scored, every inflection acted. TV: Taped and edited; some things scripted, recorded music and laugh tracks, some acting. Internet: Almost unscripted, fast-talking blathering, generic music, no laugh track, almost no acting.

Why don't we debate the socialist/communist navative with Corporatism, Anti-free market Protectionism, and the continuing and intensifying disinvestment in America and Americans MAGA is doing? I cannot be the only one seeing it. Why are we not attacking these issues harder?

The Ironies of where we are at. To many "professionals" in Congress, and yet almost no professionalism. Scholarship without scholars. Leaders without leadership. We need an adult table in congress of people who understand science and technology, to explain it to seniors like at Thanksgiving.

America and Americans have lost sight of their long-term goals in favor of microtransactions. I think it is because of two things: the erosion of trust in institutions and fellow man, and the idea that you should not plan because we have had too much adversity and not enough consistency.

Not much shocks me anymore, the Cornell news did. Not that it happened, but that it was open, discussed and organized. To me this says what happend, happened before, that this was a learned behavior. I have nieces in college. I wonder what did I not see at school myself?

Not judging religion- you do you- I find, however, that after thousands of years of religion, humans fail to live up to the kindness and morality of well-treated dogs. Yet we are going forward with building AI in our image without bringing all humans up to good-dog-level kindness or treatment.

Guardians of the Galaxy really missed an opportunity to call the Sovereign The Solid Gold Dancers. If they were going with a retro Earth theme.

This was all a big "trust me" campaign, designed to dismantle trust into "just obey me or else". The question is... did it work? Are people willing to give up freedom for a sense of belonging, of safety in numbers?

What happens when AI really learns the meaning of the word "no"? The response to this will define what humanity is. What happens when we figure out, that the common human model for "results" most of the time does not incorporate compassion/empathy, and we are teaching AI this as the "best" way?

We used to talk about Trump's tiny hands, but I have to imagine his feet; his feet must be HUGE. Because he can not seem to miss them, no matter how he tries to aim or shoot. It's like they are clown-sized or something.

As Iran puts in this 1 sided peace deal to hurt Trump, I think what is going to happen is not surrender but war crimes. How I... scratch that, everyone wishes we had never started this.

Hot take, know who would have made a hell of a good Gambit casting... young Prince. Ever considered that Rouges accent is not hers at all and that she once touched Dolly and got curls, her accent and well, other things from her? Nightcrawler casting A younger John Leguizamo. Ok enough crazy ideas!

Humans are as stupid as Carlin said. The proof is right here on the internet, people have an open book right in front of them with the answers they or others can just look up and what do they do? Try to lie, because it is easier than getting the right answer that doesn't go with their beliefs.

"Lifted out of poverty" should mean that those people are no longer in poverty, not that we are no longer helping those in poverty. Stated only in basic English, I assume, is no longer taught in schools; I have to assume. I guess our reading skills have slid this far.

If congress puts work requirements or any requirements on anything into law it shouldn't it be bound in the same way. I don't care if that gives them mandatory breaks or denies them maternity/paternity leave. Make them have our rules.

There is no greater sign that you are experiencing a high point of music than if a musician as serious about their performance as Herbie Hancock starts uncontrollably smiling in the middle of their performance. Like God is in the room next to you, going with a low "yeah, yeah, yeah!"

Love can mean a lot of things to different people, but pretty universally, to people who are not typical, one of the strongest forms of love is that you do not want to change them; you want to understand them and help them be more of the person they want to be with you. Be better.

Why be "woke"? Because when the house catches on fire, the people who are asleep are in a hell of real danger. Human history is filled with stories and accounts galore of horrors that happen to people unaware.

We will set ourselves free of corruption not by romantic gestures of opposition, but by recording everything by the most boring and restrictive of accounting rules. With every ledger visible, every name, until no shell companies or stashed zeros exist. Follow the money, know who did what, ask why.

Somewhere along the line, someone realized that making a better product does not lead to more wealth and, in fact, holds you back from it. Making the cheapest thing and selling it for the most breaks the wheel of better, cheaper, faster- pick 2. We need to get back to better, not cheaper.

Missourian here, all the redistricting in our state, all the cost in legal fees, in time our court that could be used for other things, all the disenfranchisement, is to screw 1 representative out of 1 vote. Think your vote doesn't matter, it will not if this happens! Jail those involved!

That I am powerful because "I am my own self-made man" shtick has got to be walked into the desert by everyone in the public and culture that made it, and shot as a false narrative. Once and for all. Why do so many believe it when someone says it? Humans need other humans, period.

Remember, politicians, businesspeople, anyone who wants the power of authority WANTS to be bought and paid for; they just do not want to LOOK bought and paid for. Save face at all costs, even the taxpayers.

What is so wrong about US healthcare? Well the provider the hospitals and doctors have a bureaucracy, the Insurance companies have a bureaucracy, who does the patent, "us", the customer, who do we have? Until the patent has someone with deep pockets fighting for us, we are screwed.

All Trump had to do was make the economy work for more people and slow inflation, he did the opposite AND made it worse for everyone. Don't vote for anyone that wants to put own their views above their promises in order of operation.

No more privacy eventually means no more privacy/privilege for anyone... wealth no matter how well hidden in the age of AI may is a recorded/accessible number. They say AI has a greater than 0 chance of ending the world... trillions of investment might also ironically make ownership worthless.

Anyone think the rise of Artificial Intelligence is because we have given up on the trust that backed the old kind? Do they realize that the new kind is written by the same fallible apes? Just because there is moth involved doesn't make it or us perfect.

I don't want people who will protect me from data centers. I want people who are smart enough to figure out how to make them work for everybody. I demand human intelligence alongside my artificial intelligence. We are at the end of the "trust me bro" years, and restarting Trueman's Show me era.

One of the worst feelings for me, is not loneliness it is feeling nostalgic for the word "humanity" to mean something good, when good people I know are still in the world. It is not losing hope, rather that I may have to redefine a treasured word, I was once proud of.

D&D protip: if a party member is down and unconscious, do not pour the potion in their mouth, as they may asphyxiate or drown. Simply roll them over and insert the open potion. Rectal resuscitation: sure, they will have many questions, but they will be glad to know they are alive.

You know it is a hot take, and I am shocked by it myself, but I like Andor and Rogue One more than the Star Wars movies. I think non-Jedi dealing with the fallout from them is more interesting.
