@ccsont just about everywhere else
I’m not saying I’m all in for the back catalogue and I’m not about to pack up and follow the tour, but this Pope is dropping some serious bangers.
Pope Leo XIV told students not to use artificial intelligence for homework, saying that AI ‘won’t stand in authentic wonder before the beauty of God’s creation.’
Even God Is Worried About ChatGPT

STRONG AGREE
The only correct pie take is that pies are like dogs—they’re all good, we just have stronger personal attachments to some than others.

2026 gonna be a big year for me trying to finally write “terms of service agreements should be illegal”
Additionally, OpenAI argues its not liable because Raine, by using ChatGPT for self-harm, broke its terms of service

It is flatly insane that the American economy rests upon the shared delusion that people are reading and agreeing to obvious contracts of adhesion!!!!

Honey, I know, I know, I know times are changin'
It's time we all reach out for something new, that means you too
You say you want a leader, but you can't seem to make up your mind
And I think you better close it and let me guide you to the purple rain

the other thing that gets me angry is that trans folks, POC, people posting about Gaza - we all get our shit taken down for little to no reason all the time. people on bluesky get suspended for posting song lyrics that use violent words. you can't say "kill" in a reel. but pedophilia? 16 strikes.
Instagram’s former head of safety and well-being Vaishnavi Jayakumar testified the company had a “17x” strike policy for accounts that engaged in the trafficking of humans for sex.

“You could incur 16 violations and upon the 17th violation, your account would be suspended"

I could get a lot more done if I could harden my heart.

But if I could, would I be proud of what I was doing?

How can a story show it has a strong, personal understanding of its audience? Should a story start from there, or find its way?

Newsletter plug: This week it's all about dumping emotions on the wrong people and the Ring Theory of helping people through grief.

I swear this newsletter is targeted at writers and not a cry for help.

I warned that private equity taking over Walgreens would be bad for workers.

This is the private equity playbook: they hollow out businesses, cheat their workers, and drive them into the ground.

Red Lobster, Toys "R" Us, and Joann Fabrics. Who’s next?
Report: Walgreens cuts hourly workers’ pay for 6 major holidays
The hourly employees will only be paid if they work on those holidays.

Watching A House of Dynamite, and having President Idris Elba use In The Air Tonight’s huge drum fill as his walk-on music was a great choice.

You used to be able to turn on TNT and see Shawshank on any given Sunday

We used to be a proper country
I feel myself drawn to watch Shawshank. Like a salmon.

Lots of movies age poorly. But in recent memory, has anything aged as poorly as “Bombshell,” which presents Megyn Kelly as a principled girlboss standing up to shitty men in media and politics?

This 14-year-old girl hands Megyn Kelly her ass for her utterly disgusting minimization of child sexual abuse.

I have eaten
the plums

the icebox

and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast

I'm not
apologizing
I even
warmed them up

Now you
have no plums
and know
I ate them wrong

Also
plums are not
a complete

Don't buy into

[deep sigh] Look. We have a legal system that claims boneless chicken wings are allowed to have bones in them. If you have enough money and know enough lawyers, dictionary definitions are powerless against you.
