The fact that these sentences always end with "... which we will cram with more work for them" and not "... so we moved to a four-day workweek" really illustrate the hollowness of some AI evangelists' promises that AI will deliver us to some kind of post-work utopia.

As a European, most of what I find attractive about USA is a result of multiculturalism. Jazz, Bluegrass, Soul/RnB, Tex-Mex food, movies, NY style pizza, Chicago deep dish, donuts, pop art etc. If I just wanted English-Scots-Irish culture (not very monocultural, mind you), I'd move to the UK.

Bildet viser bok 1 og 2 i Unni Lindells barnebokserie Frøken Snushane. Bok 1 har et cover som viser en blond jente i en rød jakke tegnet i en  særegen stil. Bok 2 har et sjelløst KI-generert bilde av samme jenta.

Det virker som Bonnier har gjort noen endringer i hvordan de lager omslag fra bok 1 til bok 2 i Unni Lindells barnebokserie Frøken Snushane. Men hva kan det være? 🤔 🤔 🤔

Just checking, it's now ok to flee your homeland, because you're afraid for your safety, and seek refuge in another Country?

Glad we've cleared that up. Let's hear no more about immigration and refugees then.

Star Trek Into Darkness (2013)

Abrams isn't a man so much as he's an avatar of cultural entropy. If you make something popular enough eventually you will die or sell it off and and a person in thick rimmed glasses whose main artistic vision is that he loves to have meetings will take it and sandblast it until it's nothing. I hate to see this happen here but maybe it's good that this happened. Maybe every franchise should collapse into a version of itself that makes shareholders nod and shake each others' hands. We should learn to speak in a language that rich people who don't dream can't comprehend.

Norwegian media: I have a bombshell and I would rather it was dropped by a newspaper. So if you’re a journalist in a Norwegian newspaper working with the Epstein files dm me.

If I don’t hear anything I’ll post a thread later today

If Moderna is no longer bringing vaccine trials for Epstein-Barr virus (good evidence that EB causes Multiple Sclerosis), herpes, and shingles because of Trump appointees, I want prison time for those appointees.

This might be dooming millions to disease they don’t have to experience.

"Moderna's CEO announced the company will no longer invest in new Phase 3 vaccine trials for infectious diseases: 'You cannot make a return on investment if you don't have access to the U.S. market. Vaccines for Epstein-Barr virus, herpes, and shingles have been shelved.”

In terms of what cures are being lost:

- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

Tre artikler på VG sin front med overskriftene Ice, Ice og Baby. Første overskrift viser til Trump, den andre viser til skøyter og den tredje til Marhaug og Kristjansson.

Ikke direkte relatert, men også ironisk at det neste innslaget handler om dårlige forhold på havbunnen i Oslofjorden. Intet nytt under solen.

What this man is describing would seem to constitute crimes against humanity under international law. Other governments could and should contest the abuses he’s describing the U.S. government committing against migrants.

Naboer har varslet om mannen i flere år. Mener politiet ikke gjør jobben sin. En tidligere stortingspolitiker har mistet førerkortet seks ganger etter farefull kjøring. Politiansatte og naboer fortviler etter en rekke varsler og anmeldelser.

Personer over 75 forårsaket flest dødsulykker på norske veier i 2022.
Det er til tross for at de kjører mange færre turer enn yngre sjåfører. Helt sjukt at dette bare får pågå.

🇬🇪Georgia is sliding into a legal dictatorship. Not overnight. Step by step. Each protest is met with a new tailored law.
Each law designed to exhaust, criminalize, and isolate society until resistance itself becomes illegal.
Here is how the latest law changes everything.

Radfems love to claim the Nordic Model reduces prostitution and protects women, which is technically true if the goal is to punish independent sex workers and make their lives harder.

Let’s be clear: the Nordic Model was developed under radical feminist ideology, rooted in the idea

The far-right hates liberalism in part because liberalism empowered women socially, politically, and economically, and so made them less dependent on settling for a mediocre man to provide for them. So they want to destroy liberalism to return women to a state of powerlessness and dependence.

I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them
