For those lacking basic awareness, just because the moon is less visible when it is in Earth's shadow, it's still there, just as close as ever
and it still has no interest or influence on your relationship sector

Sadly some wealthy Dems are also complicit in the ongoing class war & CW distraction
Please consider the graph below showing almost no rise in real income for the working class in 50+ yrs
Low info voters desperate 4 change are part of reason for rise of MAGA fascism
need Dems 4 wrking class

Trump was not elected x2 simply due to the racists & misogynists in the US
Dems not delivering the actual economic relief many Ams need
complicit in ongoing war on working class
2 many Dems bought off w/ AIPAC & corp $

MAGA fascism is failing
However, if we still have self-interested, AIPAC & corp funded Dem leadership, like Schumer/Jeffries/Kain/Shapiro/Garland we may be facing another fascist movement before long
We need better Dem leaders

I'm seeing way too much Ai content from students
Many seem to feel fine about outsourcing their education

The sophisticated Ai cheaters ask for essays crafted from the perspective of a junior in college with characteristics x,y, & z
I suspect the fields that attract people who seek money/power vs insight (e.g. law, med, bus, econ) will host the 1st generation of graduates w/ no actual ed

Glad that my STEM colleagues are at least dubious if not alarmed

For now, at least in the classes I teach, 1 cannot pass just using Ai
but the future of ed is looking dim
Educators are looking for ways of delaying the time until we begin getting graduates who completely coopted their learning to Ai

Ai is also undermining student learning
some students rely on it for everything, undermines class discussions
That said, met an English prof who seemed ready to vote for an AI, it was sad
My sense if one cannot explain the basic principles & failings of neural nets one should not use Ai

The plastic petrochemical industry propaganda is almost as ubiquitous as the plastic waste itself
This is the 2nd major wave of ecosphere threatening environmental propaganda launched by the climate denying fossil fuel industry

This gives me some vicarious joy
Reminds me of my own rare but occasional vindication for maintaining several cord boxes in spite of the fact that family members are simply perplexed by my "hording".

If this is not a bot, it is a harbinger of a dystopic future
I've also had students tell me that maps are outdated because their phones can navigate for them
Maps are, of course, able to portray all forms of geographical data in a way that is otherwise unobtainable.

If people on bsky want to look at AI images that's there choice
but AI is an environmental & social disaster (water, energy, jobs, & education)
I won't support accounts that detract from the real beauty of the natural world to support AI content

Hansen has not gotten the attention he deserves and that is in part because he's not sugar coating our likely future.
The climate sensitivity factor (how much Temp rises w/ increases in GHG) looks to be much higher than most climate models reflect

Dems respond w/ shifting closer to the "center" (e.g. B Clinton's neoliberalism, H. Clinton shuts Bernie out of DNC)
GOP slides further to the right (MAGA fascism)

Part of the reason for the rise of MAGA fascism is that Dem leadership has been complicit in the exploitation of the working class
After generations of no rise in real wages & living check to check, many poorly informed Americans voted for the change candidate in 2024
Dems must do better
