Great Mouse Detective: The existence of a mouse detective suggests the existence of a mouse tailor.

Columbo: AH! Of course.

AI is clearly anti-productivity given the extent that its externalities create more work for society.

In my opinion we literally do need more clubs for adults. Secret handshakes, inside jokes, excuses to hang out with pals, do charity work.

Especially as so many people are eschewing organized religion, moving away from family— we need goofy clubs that foster a sense of belonging, community.

The US federal attack on Portland has resulted in the best advertisement for a city that I have ever seen. Round-the-clock joy, community solidarity and silliness that much of the West has lost and longs for.
