"Yuh" is the first sound, which is not a vowel sound. Yogurt, yurt, yo-yo.

Jack Smith: "History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once. It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it. Since January 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort."

I wish them well. It sounds like contraction, but no doubt they are under institutional pressure.

So you think you can love me and leave me tonight? No, baby.

We had coyotes in town for several years, now that I think of it

Last week all my students hand-wrote their own pledges, according to their terms, to write in my courses without AI. Some of them were quite moving—their anger at AI’s attempt to steal their educations, their determination to learn & create anyway.

So, like, do you eat them all in one sitting then skip breakfast for a month?

Very religious-studies-y, no? Did anyone say that 100+ years ago? I would say all creation is shot through with the glory of the Lord.

If you mail me $5 in an envelope, I will mail you instructions on how to make $100,000 by telling people to mail you $5 in an envelope.

This is magnificent, and a blessing. Thank you!

Like Russia in Ukraine, Israel has created another 100 years of enemies.

After losing far too many recordings, I switched to 10, 15, and 20 minute segments. Less wasted time when having to re-record...

UBI Works @ubiworks.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

South Korea's 49th PM knew AI should fund UBI. This is common sense policy now that all technologically advanced societies should adopt. "I am considering the idea of combining the massive wealth that will arise in relation to the AI great transformation with basic income." UBI works.

The Chosun Daily headline reporting South Korea's prime minister proposed linking AI wealth to basic income.

Hmm. Not sure about that. Alternative kingdom makes more sense to me. Disorder and chaos, but not necessarily dissolution.

As a (former?) Westerner, it has long been my theory that Western populism has normatively been anti-Ontario/Quebec. The West was Liberal in the 1920s, CCF in the 1930s to 60s, then shifted to versions of Conservatism. But those have always been protest votes more than ideologies.

My money is on the HS who constantly reinvents the church, rather than doomy stats.
