Instead of getting up and leaving Plato's cave the obsession with thinking AI is a real conscious intellect is digging down and making a deeper chamber with even fainter shadows flickering on the wall, and proclaiming you're seeing the true light of intellect.

The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

Today in dystopia I just scroll back through Facebook profile pics when they used to let you put little insignias on them to find the last time they tried an imperial war on whatever country- this was right before COVID

Yeah, Biden just wrote the Crime Bill and the Bankruptcy Bill, drafted the Patriot Act, voted for NAFTA, DOMA, and the Iraq War, eulogized Strom Thurmond, installed Clarence Thomas by smearing Anita Hill, voted to create DHS and ICE, made the Bush tax cuts permanent, and supported a literal genocide
Joe Biden was old but he wasn’t a fucking xenophobic racist dictator wannabe.

That's the thing, even without the genocide he unconditionally armed he was a racist piece of shit. Always has been.

The Irish government is ideologically incapable of solving the housing crisis, but it's not only their fault.
If you voted for them, you own this just as much as they do, and you need to start fixing it.

Trump used Truth Social on Friday to announce that he will grant a “Full and Complete Pardon” to former Honduran president Juan Orlando Hernandez, a convicted drug trafficker sentenced last year to 45 years in U.S. federal prison for helping move massive quantities of cocaine into the United States.

All the naysayers about crypto, the metaverse, NFTs, and AI were 100% on the money to call bullshit.

Hey, remember when we were all going to go to work in the metaverse wearing VR goggles? And how that certainly happened, and the haters were completely wrong? It's the future, don't be left behind!

At last the BBC push back against the household budget theory of public finances. High time, I have been pushing back against this for almost 15 years now.
Isn't it refreshing when someone actually does nuance and detail?

So the BBC did a news story on the horrible conditions in the hotels were people seeking asylum are forced to live and instead of the media talking about humanity and compassion about improving conditions and letting them work, this was the outcome:
So how exactly are they meant to get to them? Many are placed in areas without accessible transport links. They can't afford to pay for journeys themselves because of how little support they get.
Yet again Labour choosing to pander to Reform than think of consequences.
