My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

This is fun - to find out your wizard name, carefully write out your real current name then right after that add “the Wizard.” We did this at a party last week and had some big laughs.

The guy who made his fortune by giving Alzheimer’s patients and their families false hope just tried to exploit the sex abuse his opponent suffered as a child for his own political gain. Republicans are a Mad Libs of depraved cruelty and moral degeneracy. Just horrible people.

Man in a gilet stood on platform 12 gives up on reading the display and asks ChatGPT out loud if he is on the right platform for his train. I don’t want to be dramatic about it but Eratosthenes figured out the circumference of the Earth using a stick and knowledge of a distant well.

@wired.com is having a "World Fair" which seems like a neat idea but there's a huge WTF as to why they are holding it in Florida Women, people of color, non-christians, and non-fascist aligned people are not safe from the state government there. There are better, safer, places to do this.

Corporate powerhouses and billionaires are flooding politics with money to shape policy—and to pick their favorite next legislators. Sludge and The Lever are uncovering how this influence works—now you can get full access to our scoops, two for the price of one. 🤯

Great chance to post my all-time favorite headline

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

Linda McMahon: "AI is definitely a tool used correctly. I've seen it in action. I have visited the Alpha School in Austin, Texas, where they use AI for the first two hours every single morning. The students have their headsets on, they are watching their computers ... it is incredibly effective"

A modest proposal. The current people building the future are fucking it up. We want some better people to build the future. Perhaps even a future not built by pedophiles and oligarchs and fans of autocracy.

I cannot get over how every single one of these politicians is just Charlie Brown with the goddamn football. "Surely selling out *this* disfavored group on the backs of which our enemy is building a much bigger infrastructure of oppression will be the One Weird Trick for defeating Fascism!"

We all want to believe in redemption arcs because intrinsically as humans they are something that often causes our emotions to overtake reason. But 90% of the time redemption stories from lifelong con artists are just another con.
