Zelensky *cannot* withdraw his troops and cede territory. His army won't do it. The public won't accept it.
🇺🇦🇺🇸 Ukraine's key "red line" in negotiations with the US is the withdrawal of troops from Donbas, - Bild.
Zelenskyy is ready to discuss abandoning NATO membership, holding elections on a shortened timeline, and freezing the frontline.

Rob Reiner was a good guy. He made a lot of movies about good guys, in worlds where not everyone was good and you didn’t have to be good. He made movies about people trying. He was angry, as many hopeful people are. He knew the world could be better and he wanted it to be. His death is devastating.

Rob Reiner made some great movies but he was also unafraid to speak the truth, and was one of the public voices who knew you don’t squander your platform, and only got louder about opposing evil fucks as he got older. Legend.

Publishing industry steps on rake, latest installment. $10.99 mmpb vs $28.99 tpb = 75% fewer sales. "Oh I'll just get the ebook / from the library / my buddy," & etc. Anything that kills the opportunity to _own_ books is a net negative for the industry, & the culture at large.
Last Call for Mass Market Paperbacks
After years of steady sales declines, the format will largely disappear next year.

We’re in a situation where bot farms can spread disinformation, which will then be picked up and disseminated by LLMs to a population that believes generative AI is some kind of arbiter of truth.
And our so-called elected officials are passing legislation to STOP regulation on LLMs.

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites.
