My name ain’t Prince and I like funk but I’m not funky. Just the same, enjoy some holidaze. This was my 1999 Xmas card photo - shot in Brooklyn, in front of the nice looking house across the street from my normal looking one.

“The state wants us to believe that nothing can change, that Covid is both gone and here to stay, and that the deaths of over 7 million people worldwide are simply meaningless, “pulled from the future.” But this is a lie. These deaths are politically determined.”
Funny what happens when an entire society decides that social murder is super OK actually, & that "you do you" is a fine approach to public health. Almost like it gives eugenicists a leg up & another to stand on, or something.

Instagram is a place where internet chain letters and fake fortunes abound. I sell stuff, so I'm still there. HOWEVER, I prefer the fake fortune I found on a NYC street last millennium (who & how do you make $ on this scam anyway?)

The thing is, somebody can be "law-abiding" until, suddenly—because of personal grievances and/or roiling prejudices and/or a psychic break—they're not. And that is why you do not make weapons of literal war accessible to anybody, ever, full stop.
BREAKING: The Trump administration is suing D.C. over its ban on semi-automatic (AR-15) weapons.
DOJ's Civil Rights Division under Harmeet Dhillon is seeking a court ruling that D.C.'s law "prohibiting registration of the AR-15 by law-abiding citizens violates the Second Amendment."

When we say "no, everything hasn't been digitized," I need you to understand that we really mean is that virtually nothing has been digitized. This is because the realm of primary sources that historians use is incomprehensibly large.
Seems like it's worth posting this one again.

Yes. That’s the answer to this question
Is Bari Weiss holding a gun to her dog's head off camera?
BRENNAN: This isn't everything you asked for just yet, but would you acknowledge that they are complying with the spirit if not the intent of your law?
MASSIE: No. They're flouting the spirit and the letter of the law. It's very troubling the posture that they've taken.

Another way to restart the world’s idea machine is to restore funding and grants to universities, researchers, and artists.
America, you have spoken loud and clear: You do not like AI. But what if AI is the way to restart the world’s idea machine?
We’re running out of good ideas. AI might be how we find new ones.
