Here’s my breakdown of EA’s pending sale… to Saudi Arabia… and why this is much, much bigger than video games. I’m late to this from a ‘news’ perspective obviously, but it’s because I worked on this video for about a month.

I know most of my followers probably know this, but just in context:

Just remembering that Dick Cheney secretly intervened in a dispute over the Klamath River in 2001--and caused the biggest fish die-off in US history, with ~77,000 fully grown adult salmon piled on the banks of the river.

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market.

This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

I started watching Adolescence and I'm stunned by the amount of work it must have taken to organize each episode. Rn I'm trying to help organize our Extra Life 24h livestream in one room, managing lots of small details, but this is like thousands of big details to plan, train for and execute on.

I blurred some words so it doesn't create an expectation about the expac since the story is far from done! I want to be clear: it wasn't the only idea on this thematic, since it was a topic very present in the public discourse (technology and its impact). But it goes to show that it takes a village

There's one tiny little thing that made me very happy this week: I remembered that 1.5 years ago I shared an idea on a Miro board and it may have been one of the many ideas that contributed to the story/setting of our latest expansion (credits to the GW2 development team, they do all the work)

If we had the same cheap, instant access to rooftop solar systems, not only could we power the homes of 18.2 million families, but we could also save $1.2 trillion in the process 💸

Paramount Has Blacklist for Stars Deemed “Overtly Antisemitic” — World of Reel It sure looks like the likes of Javier Bardem, Joaquin Phoenix, Emma Stone, and Mark Ruffalo won’t be making movies for Paramount in the foreseeable future.

Under new head of Paramount David Ellison, the studio has drawn up a list of actors who opposed the Gaza genocide and will not allow them to appear in its films and TV shows.

Does this sound familiar?

Also, "Ellison is reportedly aiming to take over Warner Bros. next."

Australia has so much solar that it's offering everyone free electricity Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

The speed with which salmon have returned to the Klamath - like the Elwha - after dam removal is overwhelmingly hopeful. And in both cases thanks to decades of tireless advocacy by local Tribes.
