The thing that some folks willingly misunderstand about Superman is that he’s a firefighter, not a cop. For him, the legalities are somebody else’s problem and he sees his job as simply helping as many people as he can. Obviously you can deep dive on that, but fundamentally: firefighter, not cop.

All this: 1. AI is built on theft. 2. AI creates disinformation. 3. AI is already manipulated by billionaires to purposefully do so. + 4. AI text is garbage, full of meaningless, unconnected phrases. There may be fine uses in summarizing text and research, etc. But not in AI as it mostly exists.

Sometimes, despite all that is going on, you just have to keep on going. The lost word of the last 8 years has been empathy. Let's spread the word.

Roger Penrose must read these stories and sigh heavily every damn day. The money and effort that's been poured into an army of chess-playing Turks championed by people like this bozo (whoever he is), money that *could* have gone into fundamental scientific work, is heart-breaking.

Today is #WorldDraculaDay because Bram Stoker's classic novel was first published #onthisday in 1897. It's also worth remembering that if Stoker hadn't come across the name Dracula in a book while researching in a LIBRARY the main character was going to be called Count Wampyr. 🧛‍♂️

A section of Bram Stoker's notes where the name Wampyr is crossed out and replaced with Dracula

Why do we like vaccines and water systems so much? It used to be 50/50 whether your kid lived to be an adult. With 4 kids, 94% chance they wouldn't all make it. Fun times. Maybe let's not do that again. We don't have magic cures for diseases like measles. We have vaccines.

This is my Prime Minister. April 28, 2025, vote Liberal. Elon Musk endorsed Pierre Poilievre — an entirely useless hate-monger with 24 years of accomplishing nothing in parliament. The choice couldn't be more simple: Vote for Trump, or vote for Canada.

This is a hard one for me to share. Asking for help, especially publicly, isn’t easy but I need your help finding work. We moved our family to the Netherlands with the hope of building a life here. But after a couple of tough years trying to establish a client base we’ve hit a wall with our visa.

@jonathanmaberry.bsky.social hello Mr. Brilliant Author, sir! Before delving into Burn to Shine, I have a query regarding a certain Repairman who made a guest appearance once. Is the world of RTI an alternate timeline/multiversal plane of the Repairman stories, or are they the same "world"?
