remember: it saved no net money, social services US citizens are getting cut, and left the US in a weaker place geopolitically. none of the debates about fiscal responsibility, obligation to US citizens first, or 'hard choices' actually apply. they're all bullshit. killed people for nothing at all.

People used to think Elon was a tech genius. Now we know he's an evil little slime whose only real talent is using Daddy's money to buy cool tech companies out from under their founders.

I think one of the undercurrents of our fractured political reality is that basically everyone has come to realize that the people who rule the world do not possess any particularly impressive level of intelligence or capability

I am not joking when I say this.
Spotify, Apple Music, and streaming in general is over.
Al music is now very, very good. You just don't know yet because all Al music circulating today is from ~2-3 generations ago.
Suno v6 pro et al has solved infinite personalized music.

It's too depressing and obnoxious to write about, but virtually all of the doomy/horny AI hyperventilating is transparently displaced anxiety about our fucked climate and political situation. Even rich idiots know it's bad and being permitted to get worse. They're trying to write their own ending.

I also don't have a problem writ large with Effective Altruism (or at least, what it said it was when it started). I DO have a problem with how today, thanks to the destruction of USAID and a global aid crisis, EA interests (which also focus on weird AI future risks) are taking over the aid sector.

I think a problem with EA, even with what it said it purported to be at the beginning, is the process of turning all human endeavors into a spreadsheet. Once that happens, no local charity or small arts organization stands a chance at justifying their existence, no individual human matters.

The worst part of Bonta caving on the Paramount merger is that it's a big flashing signal to every other company that there is no antitrust enforcement in America and you can bully your way into getting whatever you want. It's a monumentally bad decision.

Couldn’t quote this entire diatribe but it’s amazing. Watches an anodyne portrayal of a hetero relationship (apparently not part of this guy’s lived experience) and decides the male character is gay because he knows what sequins are and says they’re meeting friends for cocktails

Emerald Apple @AI_EmeraldApple
What is this... Days of Our Lives-GTA6 edition?
Only a gay man would know what sequins are. Also cocktails? I have never heard a man ever say cocktails... maybe it's a regional thing? Do Floridian men say cocktails? Yeah...
The script is definitely written by a woman who has no clue what a man thinks or how he talks. Jason is written as a caricature, much like what a delusional woman thinks a "man" should be.
I think that's why Jason is so off-putting, and kinda has this "gay vibe" because the script and dialogue are feminine.
It's corny like daytime TV made for bored housewives, in the worst way possible.

worth tying this into the political economy of the slave south as well. from roughly the 1820s onwards, slavery became enormously lucrative in ways that had never been seen before. slave traders became millionaires. large planters had tremendous purchasing power. just huge amounts of wealth.

Antebellum politics is fascinating, the South kept getting policy concessions and whipped themselves up into a paranoid rage anyway, essentially because they couldn't stand being culturally judged for having slaves
