The boring and obvious take that anti-woke positions have the effect (and in many cases the intent) of making it acceptable in polite circles to be a degenerate racist was and remains correct.

Après l’annonce de la suspension de la réforme des retraites, les troupes d’Olivier Faure se targuent d’avoir remporté une « victoire politique ». Quoi qu’en disent les socialistes, celle-ci n’efface pas un budget complaisant avec les ultrariches et une fracture indélébile à gauche.

✍️ «Le Covid ne revient pas. Il a toujours été là, simplement tout est fait pour qu’on n’y pense plus, qu’on n’en parle pas, qu’on ne le voie pas. On n’en parle pas dans la majorité des médias parce qu’une catastrophe à la fois, ça suffit.»

ICE agents surrounded, seized, and zip-tied a U.S. citizen who had just finished working a double shift because she didn’t “look” American to them.

She had her U.S. passport on her when she was detained, yet she was interrogated for an hour. trib.al/hDC7Vgv

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year
We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

Mushrooms from the genus Psilocybe can provoke psychedelic experiences thanks to compounds including psilocybin.

A new study finds that within another genus of “magic” mushrooms, psilocybin is synthesized using a completely different chemical pathway. https://scim.ag/47hEBv1
In mind-bending twist, ‘magic’ mushrooms evolved twice independently
Study identifies entirely new suite of enzymes that can make psilocybin

#BOTD in 1906 in Hannover, Germany, was Hannah Arendt, one of the most influential political theorists of the 20th century. Being driven out of Germany by the rise of Nazism, she found refuge in NYC and the New School, where she was a professor of political philosophy in 1968–1975.
