- Comment on British Charlie Kirk wannabe beaten up debating people in Manchester 4 days ago:
Under a banner that read ‘Reform should be more radical’, he argued that subjects of the British Empire shouldn’t necessarily be welcome in the UK.
As a crowd gathered behind him, he said: ‘All of you who throw water are cowards. You don’t actually want to fight for what you believe in.’
. . . That was when he was kicked to the floor before his phone was smashed and his camera and banner were stolen.
. . . Eventually, a Black man he had been debating with steps in to protect him.

They have accused him of raping or abusing them, including when they were girls — allegations that in some cases date to the early 1990s. At least one of those women, Virginia Giuffre, has died by suicide.

I wonder if belief has anything to do with reality. Hmm.
Eh, probably the universe is a cold, dead clockwork of matter that spontaneously and randomly fell into place with only the barest of coincidences we can try to grasp as objective truths with which to define our sensationally complex environment.
Although . . . it is just as possible that matter arises from something more fundamental to something like a universal order, such as consciousness.
I dunno though, they never told me.

- Comment on A University System Went All In on A.I. Now It’s Tearing Itself Apart. 2 weeks ago:
Teniente-Matson, who arrived at San Jose in 2023 after eight years at the helm of Texas A&M University-San Antonio, is leading the school’s A.I. charge. In person, she is affable and eccentric, and often power-dresses in bright primary colors. When we met, she was wearing green rhinestone-studded high heels in honor of St. Patrick’s Day. She frequently refers to herself as the “C.E.O.” of the university and compares herself to tech leaders in Silicon Valley: “We’re all trying to do the same thing,” she told me, “which is to mobilize our entire work force in this rapidly changing environment to adapt, create, innovate and be more productive.”

- Comment on Music just isn't good anymore 3 weeks ago:
I’m sure that’s true in many respects, but from the standpoint of putting content in front of . . uh . . earballs, that pipeline that used to exist for almost every adult person (in the US anyway) is dead.
Spotify and Youtube are two possibilities, both pay almost nothing and require lots of sandbagging to get a foothold.
Any new music I accidentally come across is more often than not a style I’m not into, and/or it sounds like everything else.
- Comment on Music just isn't good anymore 3 weeks ago:
The music industry, such as it is today, is nothing. It was getting super fucked in the 80s, had a last gasp in the 90s and now it’s nothing.
The former pipeline of label to radio to charts is dead. Whats left is a necrotic accounting and marketing mechanism driven by algorithms and viral splashes.
