In light of events at OpenAI and Hugging Face, I feel like now is a great time to talk about Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics.

The world's first trillionaire received 38 Billion Dollars from the US government. But, no, we won't have enough money to pay for school lunches for your kids. Or give you healthcare. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It's an extremely crude term, but a friend of mine once referred to LLMs as "The Stochastic Blowjob Machine", and I have never been able to think of them as anything else since.

It’s astounding that Zelensky survived a full-scale war without ever having a ballroom.

If you're feeling a little crazy this is a pretty solid summary of the state of the war in Iran.

I've been saying this for a while. We've been relying on a series of gentleman's agreements instead of actual, hard & fast laws.

This is a solid point. It allows for the concentration of power.

The Rich People Feelings index is very high. Meanwhile, at our house, we're trying to decide do we fix the car or the roof because we really can't afford to do either. We're standing out there with our cup waiting for some of that trickle down.

Amid these dark moments, something important is beginning to shift. It's clearly the result of healthy political pressure - which we must sustain, and build.

It's worth repeating: if you've ever wondered what you would have done in Hitler's Germany…you're doing it now.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

163 years ago in Mankato, 38 Dakota men were hung in the largest mass execution in our nation’s history. I’m grateful to the riders who continue to remind us the importance of fighting for accountability and healing for the Dakota people. www.mprnews.org/story/2025/1...

Dakota riders return home to Minnesota via horseback, honoring legacy of Dakota 38

Dakota riders completed a journey of hundreds of miles to honor the 38 Dakota men executed in 1862 — the largest mass execution in U.S. history. The annual rides ending in Mankato serve as a poignant ...

Same. I haven't seen anything really creative. The best uses of AI so far –in my opinion–are intercepting spam calls and transcribing live meetings.

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year. UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year. Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

The previous term was political farce. This term feels actually dangerous. It feels like Augustus pacifying the Senate. Only if Augustus was a self-absorbed shitbag.

Some of them went so far as to say that the anti-scorpion people KILLED their friend. I know some people have a lot of big feelings about their friend being dead but I didn't kill him. In fact, I voted for his safety. 4/4

Shannon Wortham @roguelibrarian.bsky.social · 18/09/2025

When people again pointed out that having scorpions everywhere was dangerous, that maybe this man would not be dead were there not scorpions everywhere, this man's friends attacked them and called the anti-scorpion people unpatriotic & ungodly. 3/?

Shannon Wortham @roguelibrarian.bsky.social · 18/09/2025

But this man would say that those people were fools and cowards, even that those people were the real danger. Then, one day the man was stung and killed by a scorpion. 2/?

Shannon Wortham @roguelibrarian.bsky.social · 18/09/2025

There was a man who insisted that scorpions be allowed to fill the public streets. He was convinced that, while they were dangerous, they were a necessary danger. Meanwhile there were people saying that they didn't want scorpions everywhere and that scorpions were dangerous & not needed anymore.
