You’re not imagining things—the plums that were in your icebox are *completely gone*. Here’s why that’s bad news:

in this really annoying state where the set of "social spaces i can trust to have a reasonable discussion about AI" and "social spaces where i can elide explaining a lot of my personal weird idiosyncratic bullshit" have zero intersections
