and that’s assuming you don’t need higher therapeutic doses! because of my pancreatic function, I take between 50-200mg. I hate it here. 😵‍💫

and for what? honestly. just bad decisions everywhere.

fast, yes. well, no.

We have taken products off the market for being far less dangerous. We also have a clear signal that all the money we’re dumping into AI could be better spent addressing a serious mental health crisis.

We risk entering a perverse loop: machines are supplying the language with which patients relay their suffering, and doctors are using machines to record and respond to that suffering. This cultivates what psychologists call “cognitive miserliness”, or a tendency to default to the most readily available answer rather than engage in critical inquiry or self-reflection. By outsourcing thought, and ultimately the most intimate definitions of ourselves to AI, doctors and patients risk becoming yet further alienated from one another. In this trajectory we can see the evolution of what Michel Foucault described in The Birth of the Clinic as the “medical gaze” – the separation and isolation of the diseased body from the lived experience of the person and their social environment. Where the 19th-century gaze fragmented the patient into lesions and signs visible to the clinician, and the late 20th-century evidence-based gaze translated patients into odds ratios and treatment protocols, the 21st-century algorithmic gaze dissolves both patient and doctor alike into never-ending streams of automated data. AI views both suffering and care as computational problems.

“AI views both suffering and care as computational problems.” 😮‍💨

this is sad as fuck

The Feds arent going to leave LA until at least 2028. The city is obligated to allow ICE / DHS / CBP to operate within the city due to 28 Olympics being a National Special Security Event (NSSE). Fascists are not going anywhere. No one is coming to save us except ourselves.

In case you didn’t know:

hit em with a Jenna Maroney “Kill Yourself” meme and leave it at that

god bless data scientists for having the numbers and analyzing them

this administration will lie to you at every turn

it’s so wild that it just seems like they’re never going to leave

and they’re gonna do this sort of creep across the country and it’ll just become normalized

none of this is normal

ready to cast my vote goddamn it

This would mean more if Illinois state police weren't harassing protestors.

Too many of these election roundups are omitting Mary's landslide victory. Fortunately, Chicago sees Detroit (and always has):

tfg, I need some sort of silver lining in this shithole

critical thinking abt certain ideas only

leadership is so reliant on their algorithms and echo chambers. if they spent ANY time in their homes and with their constituencies, they’d understand that these politics can win anyfuckingwhere. you just have to give people the option.

I’m so happy for NYC 🥹🥹🥹
