Two weeks feels like plenty of time for impeachment and removal proceedings. Just saying.

Bone Temple, the immediate follow up to 28 Years Later, somehow managed to surprise me again. Such an original take on the genre. Took so many swings and managed to land most of them. What a weird and wonderful franchise, 30 years in the making.

Seriously the theme of the next few years are going to be “you can check that, you know. Did you actually check?"

It's going to be tedious. It's going to be super annoying. And it's going to be a good part of what keeps us tethered to conversations that actually work with other people and don't turn into weird factions.

The thing about social media is that it allows bad wordplay to be seen by everyone. It's constantly being observed. A "pun-opticon" if you will.

@jon aah that explains it. I keep trying vertical tabs. My sceeen is often so much wider than it is long that it seems like it would be a great use of screen space. But it felt so *wrong*. And now that you mention it, I think it’s because that list of tabs keeps pulling my attention to it, even though it has nothing to do with the page I’m on.

@johnzajac @stanley The demotion of ethics is really astounding. Ethical considerations used to be proscriptive. In medicine or science if an experiment or trial could not be run ethically, it *could not be run*. Full stop.

Techbros have seemingly turned ethical issues into just a part of a larger calculus; merely a negative weight that can be outweighed by strong-enough upsides. "Sure, lack of informed consent isn't *ideal* but think of the data we would collect."

@stanley

I always described this urge to debate *everything* as sitting down with the person who kidnapped your kids and civilly discussing, over coffee perhaps, the relative merits of child rape.

Like, no, I'm not going to be open to conversing about whether or not your need to have an LLM stroke you when you're lonely at night is worth burning the planet to a crisp.

My dear @robin is running a fundraiser for transition-related medical expenses that we'd really prefer to not have to defer.

Current goal is the cost of the very specific health insurance we need to maintain. That alone would be an amazing result.
