I'd like to say to these people, and this comes from a genuine place of a lesson I myself had to learn:
It is all right to have these sorts of thoughts. But they're inside thoughts.
Elon Musk has already started plans to launch a million satellites.
Yes. A MILLION.
This is a colossally bad idea, and it's not too late to make your voice heard. I explain everything:

As I get older I’m coming to increasingly radical views like “mean what you say and say what you mean” and “it’s better to hope than despair”
Last year when I was checking into a hotel, the desk person was wearing Meta glasses. I kindly asked them to take them off. They were annoyed. I said, “I do not consent to you looking at my credit card and ID with Meta glasses on.” My instincts were correct: www.bbc.com/news/article...
Jesse Singal: “I don’t understand why all these experts with degrees keep disagreeing with me. So demoralizing. What could the explanation be??”

The author of the worlds strangest book, claims that a cat wrote it.
He said that a stray white cat walked into his studio & telepathically told him what to write, so the cats the real author.

Every major disaster in this country over my lifetime has been self inflicted by right wing ideologues with just enough complicit or inert Democrats to enable or ratify them. That's why we've been on this doom trajectory for the last ~50 years and it'll keep getting worse if that doesn't change
Here's my answer to the question in the headline: they should govern it...by not resorting to it. By sidestepping its use. By going on without it. By. Not. Using it. AI can be manipulated and you can be fed falsehoods and you could spread them to millions of people before you realize. Don't use it.

Was recently tying to find out of my appendix was exploding or bowel was obstructed or some-such. Turns out I passed a kidney stone. I will be giving kidney stones a bad review, three stars at most. Would not recommend.
I read about this study in an article from Science Daily but in that study the sound therapy was also coupled with super fast flashing lights.

My system for not doing this is never leaving the house.
Doubtful that movement and sensation are necessary. I'd figure life just is metabolism... 🤷♂️
Since this will likely come up in the SOTU: Yes, US stock markets are up since Trump took office (14%).
But in the rest of the world, markets are up WAY more. Cumulative market gains are more than triple ours (43%)
“To save democracy, you have to actually talk about democracy.”
Sounds like @anatosaurus.bsky.social
It's particularly ironic that the user in that image is "director of alignment" for Meta's AI. Having safeguards to make sure AI doesn't go off on its own wrecking your stuff is literally. her. job.
its WILD how many of the incel/looksmaxxer guys earnestly say things like, "what I'm supposed to just . . . go up to a girl and TALK to her? And why, get arrested? go to jail? Because that's what would happen!"
so either they've a) never talked to girls or b) only talked to girls holding a gun.
A good way to create a sense of tension and narrative when performing ambient music is to waggle your eyebrows.
Biggest thing dems could do for their current position imo is have true moral convictions. They love to wait till the poll tells them something is confirmed Okay and by that time it’s too late. You should try believing in something, anything, the first time - even at pt of risk
the Bonica-Grumbach thesis is doing an amazing job and is being recognized more and more

It would be helpful if deeply unserious bullshitters stopped being platformed in the media.

The administration is anti-democratic and seeking to facilitate a global fascist movement.
That’s what this is about. The United States is now trying to incite unrest around the western world to unravel democracy.
We have become a…very grave threat to the free world.

Some passages from 1984. Shoutout to people like my dad who got the wrong message out of it. (I am bitter.)
