Follow up on last repost. Those with money and power want to kill empathy so consumers no longer value the time and effort invested to deliver a message. So you won't care about the medium or the speaker, only the message. Then they can feed you any message they want to any way they want to.

Posting this again because I've been getting questions: at this moment there is no licensed merch for Murderbot or Sanctuary Moon except what is on Worldbuilders Market worldbuildersmarket.com/collections/... where it's sold for charity fundraising. And they are getting a new t-shirt design soon.

This is incredible.
Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

The AI apocalypse continues. The amount of collateral damage from AI is truly staggering. This is not likely to end well.
Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead. It’s already getting hard to build an affordable PC, and the exit of the longstanding provider of consumer memory is going to make that even more challenging www.theverge.com/news/837594/...
