Wouldn’t you know it, Anthropic’s terms and conditions clearly state that if you are accidentally blown up by Claude, they cannot be held liable and your estate can in fact be sued by them on the grounds that your death forces the usually chipper Dario Amodei to wrestle with his own mortality.

trolley problem diagram, with Sisyhpus pushing his boulder as the trolley car, and text that reads:

Sisyphus is rolling a boluder towards the Grand Hilbert Hotel. The hotel has an infinite number of rooms, but they are all full, so they may not be able to accomodate him or his boulder.

If you choose to divert him, his boulder will destroy the Ship of Theseus.  But the ship has had all of its constituent parts replaced, so it may not actually be the same ship.

Is Sisyphus happy?

a question for the ages, really.

One Year On: 13 people on the ruling that changed their lives On 16 April 2025, the UK’s Supreme Court ruled that the legal definition of a woman is based on their biological sex assigned at birth. Forget the rage-bait headlines and attempts to divide us through...

my first piece (cowritten with Catriona Innes) in a print magazine comes out today: we interviewed 13 people, mostly trans women, about how the Supreme Court ruling has affected them for Cosmo UK

Saved by the dreamers disease Paste Magazine is your source for the best music, movies, TV, comedy, videogames, books, comics, craft beer, politics and more. Discover your favorite albums and films.

Wake up, kids. This month in the Alt Rock Department at @pastemagazine.bsky.social I wrote about the New Radicals and the importance of having a shitty job, if only to know how far you can test the limits of the world.

You ever post something you spent a lot of time thinking about and tinkering with and then immediately go back and delete it like β€œyeah no this one is garbage, this one has gotta go”

I’ve been struggling really really badly with facial dysphoria and I discovered recently that keeping up with my skincare regimen helps with that!

I love @kenjennings.bsky.social as the host of Jeopardy but concerned that he cannot retire from this position until and unless someone beats his Jeopardy winning streak and usurps his place, in accordance with the ancient laws

I think that trashing a movie nobody cares about that came out 13 years ago is absolutely worth using the origin of my own last name as a setup

My last name, Sturges, is derived from the Old Norse name Thorgils, which literally means β€œhostage of Thor.” This, incidentally, is exactly how I felt watching THOR: THE DARK WORLD (2013)

Selling it for parts is exactly what he was hired to do and exactly what he was incentivized to do. Our economic system is in a death spiral.

It’s a shame because Siamese Dream is one of my favorite albums but I parted ways with him long ago

Wrong, Billy. Truth is, we had to kill rock in order to save it.
