If you like someone complaining about the way the media builds narratives to impact our cultural conversations in the way they want and not in the interest of the public, then I am the follow for you!

It’s shocking how much dumber the average person is now versus 30 years ago. Chatbots are turning brains into puree, teens spend five to eight hours a day watching slop videos, elite colleges no longer expect students to be literate. We are rapidly rolling back the Enlightenment

kind of terrifying that I was probably among the last cohort to have a university education that involved reading whole books and synthesising information myself

What I’ve learned is that bedtime procrastination isn’t about not being tired. It’s about clinging to the only hours that still feel like they belong to you.

The implicit (and sometimes explicit) consensus is we can keep hyping up the industry and it can keep loaning itself money (and lobbying the govt for potential bailouts) while we await a vague paradigm-shifting or AGI-adjacent breakthrough and I am, to say the least, skeptical!

Pretty sure that a ā€œreversalā€ would just be an acknowledgment that the underlying investments are not remotely reflected in real world market value. Is the idea that we can just cheer lead our way to greater and greater inflated stock values regardless of actual consumer value?

According to today’s WSJ, AI-related investment accounts for half of GDP growth. A reversal would risk recession. We can’t afford to go backwards.

Viewing children as "mini-mes" is why so many people turn out as shitty parents.

The quality of life of my children will depend on me and my partner. Whatever happens to them will be my responsibility. Until I have enough capital and stable mental capacity, I would not force my whim. To be married and have mini mes would never be an easy decision.

Insecure straight men can’t do anything bc they’re afraid of being seen as feminine. It’s actually quite sad.

Imagine knowing your platform was a playground for predators, fueling teen depression, eating disorders, and suicide and deciding the best course of action was… absolutely nothing. Meta didn’t just ā€œmissā€ anything. They saw it. They measured it. They reported it internally. And

California is going further than just a warning. Effective January 1, it is a crime to post AI-altered real estate photos in listings without clearly disclosing that AI has been used and including a link to the unaltered image.

Politically, yes, it hurt Biden when he claimed the economy was improving when voters disagreed. However, the difference is that Biden was right — the economy was improving from where Trump had left it.
