Ah, fair. Commentators made it sound like more actual fireworks. Still nuts that it took more than 15 minutes for the smoke to clear!

I was texting a friend about how bad it still looked around the 60th minute, and then the commentators said that they'd shot off more of them when Boston scored. WHY?!

This is a league where Casey Krueger had an asthma attack triggered by fireworks moments before a championship game, and that just had fireworks flying into the stands in LA. As I wrote about the Spirit's version of this: No one will throw you in jail for failing to have fireworks.

I ran an absolutely 100% human, zero AI-involvement at any stage passage of my writing through an "AI detector," curious if it could really tell human from AI work, and it said my own writing was "84% AI written" then asked I wanted to pay to have it "humanized." So there's that to keep in mind.

This is such bullshit. Canada gets away with its own evils because the US demands so much attention, but it does the same things as the US while covering it with a veneer of niceness.

My crankiest old man take is that referring to all art/entertainment/journalism/criticism/comedy/advertising as “content” helped pave the way for broad-ish acceptance of AI slop.

At BEST you’re playing Russian Roulette with information when you’re asking an AI to tell you something, but many people—including smart people, including people you respect and love—already view it as something with more authority than an *expert*. It’s like conservatism on steroids

I really can't put this more clearly. If you watch the new Harry Potter series, you are directly funding the genocide of trans people, because that's what Rowling gleefully spends HP revenue on. There's no "death of the author" here, no "there's lots of awful creators." You are funding genocide.

USPS is the bus ride that saves you from needing a $75 cab. It's the public school that saves you $5k in tuition even when the diocese is helping with the funding. It's the public housing that keeps you housed when you don't have money for $3k rent for a private family-sized apartment.

Every single sector needs a strong, downwards pushing public backstop to ensure everyone can get what they need. When that backstop gets removed, prices can soar because there's no longer the chance to say you'll take the bus, go to public school, or find a social housing unit tied to income.

It is true that if your goal is to maximize the number of clicks on a given piece of content, you don't want to produce a 3,000-word piece. But maybe not everyone should be trying to maximize clicks! Maybe it's okay to target a smaller, more devoted audience. Indeed I've bet my entire career on it.

hahahaha omg I'm so tired it's like I'm drunk. It's not that they're trusting "mommy bloggers" over medical expertise. It's that those people - and it's not just women doing it - are able to dispense life threatening medical advice with zero consequences.

I don't know how to say this exactly but I don't think the problem is just that people are willing to believe random people on the expert for medical advice, but that people are able to horrific disseminate medical advice without any consequences. And it's not just "mommy bloggers" doing it

idk i do think refusing to vaccinate your children is a moral issue. how much blame someone deserves can depend on what type of information they have access to or how capable they are of understanding it, but you are culpable if your children die of a preventable disease. you just are.

If America still had the rule of law, this would be the easiest prosecution ever, but we all know absolutely nothing will happen.

Six accounts on Polymarket made around $1 million in profit by betting on the US to strike Iran by Feb. 28, according to analytics firm Bubblemaps SA. The accounts were all freshly created in February and had only ever placed bets on when US strikes might occur. Some of their shares were purchased, in some cases at roughly a dime apiece, hours before the first explosions were reported in Tehran.

WOW. 19 people, all who were imprisoned and mistreated in a foreign prison at the direct command of the United States, are brave enough to say “We are innocent, and we will endure more time imprisoned to prove that.” I can only admire the enormous courage such a move takes.
