9. We’ve become so used to all this that we hardly notice it. But isn’t it extraordinary? Almost everyone wants one thing, and almost everyone who represents us – whether in politics or the media – wants the opposite. Yet we tell ourselves we live in a democracy.

An old cigarette advertisement with an illustration of a Doctor holding a pack of Lucky cigarettes. The text reads: 20,679
Physicians
SaY "LUCKIES
are
less irritating"
"It's toasted"
Your Throat Protection against irritation against cough”
* The figures quoted have been
LYBRAND,
ROSS BROS AND
MONTGOMERY. Accountants and Auditors.
An ad for camel cigarettes.not shows an illustration of a doctor smoking and a pack of Camels. There’s also an illustration of a woman showing her “T-Zone” of her mouth and chin. The text reads:
He's one of the busiest men in town. While his door may say Office Hours 2 to 4, he's actually on call
24 hours a day.
The doctor is a scientist, a diplomat, and a friendly sympathetic human being all in one, no matter how long and hard his schedule.
According to a recent Nationwide survey:
MORE DOCTORS SMOKE CAMELS THAN ANY OTHER CIGARETTE
DOCTORS in every branch of medicine — 113,5%
in all-were queried in this nationwide stud of cigarette preference. Three leading research organizations made the survey. The gist of the query was—-What cigarette do you smoke, Doctor?
The brand named most was Camel!
The rich, full favor and cool mildness of Camel's superb blend of costlier tobaccos seem to have the same appeal to the smoking tastes of doctors as to millions of other smokers. If you are a Camel smoker, this preference among doctors will hardly surprise you. If you're not — well, try Camels now.
CAMEL
TURKISH DOMESTIC
CIOARI
BDA
CAMELS Carlier Tobaccas
Your "T-Zone" Will Tell You...
T for Taste...
T for Throat.
that's your proving ground for any cigarette.
Seo if Camels don't suit your
"T-Zone" to a "T."
When ppl are like “if AI is so bad for you why does everyone use it” I’m like oh ya why would that be 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

Empire of Vice
In a perverse twist on virtue signaling, the Trump administration is training Americans in the politics of raw domination.
"...the more one relies on vice signaling as a style of action and communication, the less relevant and powerful the in-group’s moral compass is as a practical constraint on anyone’s behavior."

I do understand: you want permission. There’s a machine in the corner wrapped in human skin that makes things out of shit and blood to look like whatever you want (as long as you don’t look too closely). You gave one to your teacher and they didn’t notice. Your boss told you to use it after they laid off half the team and it was fine. You fed one to your kids and they liked it. You want to know you can use it sometimes without me thinking less of you. You don’t need me to believe it’s useful, you just want me to be polite about it.
Great post about generative AI. Happy Holidays. Don't say I never gave you anything. anthonymoser.github.io/writing/ai/h...

Der hervorragende Schweizer ÖV war das Resultat politischer Weitsicht, vieler staatlicher Investments und einer Service-Public-Mentalität.
All das fehlt heute. Vor allem in diesen vollkommen vergifteten deutschsprachigen Bullshitdiskurs.

Framing GenAI as a battle between teachers and students is a red herring. Students and educators are on the same side. The real opposition are the data extraction firms and brokerages and their allies among the managerial class.

Erbschaftssteuer: Ein einig Volk von Partners
Die Schweiz, so haben wir es in der Schule gelernt, ist eine Willensnation. Keine Kultur eint sie, keine gemeinsame Sprache und kein Kaiser, sondern eben ein Wille. Nur, ein Wille wozu?
In der Schweiz gibt es Armut. Zur Wahrheit gehört aber auch, dass die durchschnittlichen Schweizer:innen zu den reichsten zehn Prozent der Weltbevölkerung zählen. Und das zeigt sich dann an der Urne.
