This is a good film. I'll be speaking with the director after the 9.20 screening. However, it is screening from 9/18 to 9/24. I've been talking about this case for a long time because it remains relevant today.

All of this! AND especially this: The problem is not “medical mistrust”; it’s “institutional untrustworthiness.” If you’re someone who thinks about the health system and are striving towards justice in health and care, go give this a read!

“On average, these hospitals paid $15.7 million (SD, $46.1 million) for management consulting services, with each contract costing an average of $6.2 million (SD, $14.8 million). Management consulting contracts lasted an average of 1.4 years” Surely this is more useful than more staffing!

if anything horrific horrific happens
i’m here

i used to say if you need me
call me
and i meant
if the darkness makes you feel lost
i’ll be your gallows humor
i’ll find you by your laughter

i used to say if something bad happens
let me know
and i meant
i will close any distance
to catch you before you fall
i only need a white flag

then if anything unprecedented happens
text me
i love you but my ringer’s off
so many phone calls have ruined my life
and i am trying to build one of the arks
to carry us through this

one horrific isn’t enough
we have witnessed humanity
dragged by the hair to hell
we have seen the charred earth
as each day brings unholy tantrums
from men who hate the word no

today the president of the united states
threatened the annihilation of a people
the dictator of reality tv
is jealous of the moon
in an age of celestial mechanics
he fetishizes a nuclear option

today we know the names
of every coward who claims power
but cannot seem to shift a tide
to save a life
i’d rather worship a rock in the vastness
i’d rather cry with astronauts

so if anything horrific horrific happens
i’m here
screaming NO with you
grieving home with you
raging ourselves free
with all the people of earth
at odds with our governments

and if i can’t hold you close
or again
i will name the brightness for you
i will be steadfast – an earthling
choosing earth
choosing earth

You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

An unaccounted for part of the economy is how much young people virulently hate AI, despite how aggressively it's being forced on them. They realize it's making their friends dumber and ruining the world and they want nothing to do with it. From the Penn student paper: www.thedp.com/article/2026...

Goldman Sachs reports that 300 million full-time jobs could be replaced by AI by 2030. Labor turnover is high and hiring has slowed. 71% of Americans worry that AI will cause permanent job loss. As young people about to enter the workforce for the first time, the fear of unemployment is understandable, but we cannot save ourselves with the very tool that is putting us at risk.

The irony is that as Penn pours endless money and energy into AI advancement in its attempt to get ahead, the University is only quickening its own demise. AI cannot coexist with education — it can only degrade it. As technology advances and workers are replaced by machines, schools are some of the only places we have left to explore and wrestle with human thought. With our own university leading the charge, AI is now corrupting those few sacred spaces and leaving us with nowhere to engage in true scholarship.

Editorials represent the majority view of members of The Daily Pennsylvanian Editorial Board who meet regularly to discuss issues relevant to the Penn community. This body is led by Editorial Board Chair Jack Lakis and is entirely separate from the newsroom. Questions or comments should be directed to letters@thedp.com.
