Still mad at Talarico for caving on trans issues, obviously because it is flat out wrong, but also because when the other guy is saying this nonsense, it’s very very clearly a terrible strategy.

In fairness to Senator Schmitt the two teams romanization is very similar if you don’t check the original characters.

The school where my housemate teaches banned the kids from keeping their phones on them during the day and they’re starting to come in with iPods, and this is very beautiful to me. Nature is healing, etc.

I just watched First Blood for the first time last night and it’s a real cornucopia of evil and of lesser degrees of badness, and that’s without even talking about Rambo tbh. Col. Trautman is evil in a grand way—he made Rambo and others like him unable to function in society and then cut him loose.

Once again, I gotta say: you cannot treat anything you’re feeding into an AI as anonymous. There are enormous ethics implications for, e.g. referees who are clearly uploading others’ unpublished papers without consent, let alone health care professionals or law enforcement

People sleep on CUNY but it is one of the absolute JEWELS of U.S. Higher Ed and has been for decades. And what's the thanks the system gets??? It has to fight for its life every single year because it has been systematically defunded.

Do not carry a cold beverage in their presence. Politely decline any drinks or sweetmeats they may offer. Keep a plain iron nail in your left trouser pocket and a sachet or paper twist of coarse salt in your right shoe. Enter and leave your chair moving clockwise. Follow up with a thank-you note.

Why is billionaire-owned media suddenly coming all at once with pieces against drinking fluids. What is this manufacturing consent for. Is it building toward something. Should I be afraid

@wsj.com‬
You don’t need to make drinking water a part-time job since too much of it doesn’t have any real health benefit.

@washingtonpost.com‬
Is asking someone to leave the beverages at home for an interview as fussy as reminding a lady to wear pantyhose or a gentleman to ask before lighting a cigarette?

Stop Using Anti-NUCLEAR Language
Instead of:
"If my parents find out about this, they'll go nuclear."
"This discourse is radioactive."
"The country must avoid letting Al become a Chernobyl moment."
"I'm worried about the fallout from this decision."
Say:
"If my parents find out about this, they'll have a blowout on their offshore oil platform resulting in 4.9 million barrels of oil spilled into the Gulf of Mexico."
"This discourse is leaking up to 9% of its production in the form of methane directly into the atmosphere, leading to the greenhouse effect and contributing to the melting permafrost and the rapid warming of the Arctic."
"The country must avoid letting Al become a Benihu Colliery moment, the worst coal mining disaster in history, in which a gas and coal dust explosion resulted in 1,549 deaths."
"I'm worried about the severe acid rock drainage that might develop from this situation, requiring decades of additional monitoring and treatment and leading to long-term health effects for the nearby population."

Underdeveloped object permanence. If people don't live where I can see them, they stop existing, and that's good. If it's 50 trees being cut from a forest Elsewhere in the state rather than 1 tree on my city block, that's a climate win because I didn't ever personally witness tree removal.

Not to restart Choosin Texas discourse, but I’d never heard it when people were talking about it and I just got in a car with the radio tuned to a top 40 station and it was the first song that came on. That never happens when I bike/walk places and listen to my little podcasts and playlists!

The problem with education is that it's a solved problem. Students need small classes, individual attention, lots of writing, lots of feedback, access to a well-stocked library, time to think, and time to talk with their peers. We just don't like the answer, so we keep trying to do other stuff.
