They can take editorial boards of various media outlets with them, too.

Looking down an empty rural road. Hanging above it is a large cloud with a flat dark grey bottom, white cliff like sides, and nothing above but blue sky. It looks like a board.

Looking out across a field with green plants sprouting. Above is an extremely flat cloud stretching off into the distance and filling the left side of the sky. Its bottom is dark gray, the cliff like sides are white, and above is nothing but blue sky.

This is the FLATTEST cloud I have ever seen. ☁️

Cruelly add, just as you're getting back in the time machine, that they don't last as long either.

The front of the Pantheon, eight Corinthian columns holding up the triangular pediment. An inscription under the pediment reads MΒ·AGRIPPAΒ·LΒ·FΒ·COSΒ·TERTIVMΒ·FECIT, meaning "Marcus Agrippa, son of Lucius, made when consul for the third time".

Anyway, I'm just back from Italy, where we walked our legs off and ate three-course meals daily and saw a bunch of cool old stuff. I'm gonna think about that for awhile.

Increasingly feel like private air travel is incompatible with the necessary tedium of democracy, if you can't sit in a crowd waiting for your group number to be called then you haven't signed the social contract

IF YOU'RE UNEMPLOYED IT'S NOT BECAUSE THERE ISNT ANY WORK 
JUST LOOK AROUND: A HOUSING SHORTAGE, CRIME, POLLUTION; WE NEED BETTER SCHOOLS AND PARKS.
WHATEVER OUR NEEDS, THEY ALL REQUIRE WORK.
AND AS LONG AS WE HAVE UNSATISFIED NEEDS, THERE'S WORK TO BE DONE.
SO ASK YOURSELE, WHAT KIND OF WORLD HAS WORK BUT NO JOBS. IT'S A WORLD WHERE WORK IS NOT RELATED TO SATISFYING OUR NEEDS, WORLD WHERE WORK IS ONLY RELATED TO SATISFYING THE PROFIT NEEDS OF BUSINESS.
THIS COUNTRY WAS NOT BUILT BY THE HUGE CORPORATIONS OR GOVERNMENT BUREAUCRACIES.
IT WAS BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO WORK. AND, IT IS WORKING PEOPLE WHO SHOULD CONTROL THE WORK TO BE DONE. YET, AS LONG AS EMPLOYMENT IS TIED TO SOMEBODY ELSE'S PROFITS, THE WORK WONT GET DONE.

I was so, so lucky to be in the arena yesterday when this happened.

The number of people I have seen comment on social media with screenshots of inaccurate AI generated information as incontrovertible proof that their beliefs are correct is...distressing. We gotta get better at recognizing dick sucking machines for what they are.

You know how, like, Historically and Officially, if a dish is "Florentine" it will have spinach? Are we at the point (I think yes) that we all generally understand that a dish called "California" will have avocado? Fun to think that's happened in my lifetime.
