Semi-retired ecologist/wildland firefighter, Florida Native, live-and-let-live, I use my turn signals. Democrats might be useless but republicans are just evil. Nature tends toward nonlinearity at boundary conditions.

Currently vacationing in Ontario. I have yet to meet a Canadian who offers an unkind word about anything or anyone other than trump. I love it here.

I just read The Chaos Machine by Max Fisher. It’s enlightening, terrifying, and enraging. All in one.

Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with trump? No, really what is wrong with republicans? Imagine Biden posting videos of lions attacking people and the reaction they’d be having. Fucking hypocrites the lot of them.

I was one. Recognized his sleaze when he was “the donald.” I kind of threw up in my mouth a bit just writing it.

Yikes! Have you guys seen this? The creep factor in Steve Hilton’s “Just Try It” campaign ad is off the charts. Republicans are losing their shit over it. Calling it “creepy,” “weird,” and sexually suggestive. Some are flat-out embarrassed. Evangelical pastor Jack Hibbs called it “grotesque.”

Anthropic is out with new nonsense about Claude (or the collection of models called Claude) deserving moral consideration and/or be able to feel distress, so my inbox is filling up with journos asking me to comment. I've also got a day job, so here is a brief set of public comments on this: >>

I find myself generally being nice for just that reason.

Over the summer I absolutely savaged Claude for failing to break the Y axis in a graph in R. I told it you’ll never take over the world if you can’t figure out how to put a break in a Y axis. Now I look forward to doing my worst again.

“Linux not ready for primetime” that’s funny. I suppose it depends on your definition of prime time. I’ve been using it for years, no issues. Can’t imagine ever purchasing a windows/microsoft product again. For my version of prime time it’s fucking junk. But if it works for you, great.

The Miccosukee have my eternal respect for never signing a treaty with the US. They care about the ‘Glades in a way most white folks don’t understand.
