on the very day the Supreme Court's conservatives said 'we know best' and put themselves in charge of complicated agency decisions one of the geniuses confused nitrous oxide and nitrogen oxide. So they had to have a do over. Not exactly an auspicious start.

Mara in Daughter of the Empire series is awesome. That series was much more developed. Although Pug was dear to my heart because it was my first fantasy series read.

Link to one of my scientific heroines (Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett) talking about myths we believe about emotion. I loved teaching and engaging with this work.

To repeat: generative "A.I." is not inevitable. It's a derivative, boring bullshit generator. It wallows in mediocrity and fails by design and definition. Just say no.

Of course. I think the delay of funds to Ukraine was irresponsible. It's a big world filled with lots of atrocity. I have a big heart and can generate endless outrage. Thanks for asking!

I'm blocking every Democrat fundraising text number until ceasefire. And unsubscribing every time I get an email. No joke. I have nothing to talk to you about until you do something.

The book helped put a lot in perspective, even the atrocities in Gaza right now. Her conversation with David Naimon on Between the Covers about that was so good.

Didn't buy because had no money. Didn't walk. Then, awkwardly rented twice a year for 18 years until I left. It was a complicated relationship.

2020: Microsoft sets goal to be carbon negative by end of the decade.

2023: Microsoft's emissions are 30% higher than in 2020.

Main cause? The relentless push to meet AI demand, which requires new data centers built out of carbon-intensive steel, cement, chips.

Unbridled techno-solution will never offer justice. Lifelong learning isn't thriving when it is a symptom of economic precarity, of instability, of a disinvestment in the public good."

"We  should want a future of human dignity and thriving and justice and security and care -- for everyone. Education is a core part of that. But dignity, thriving, justice, and care are rarely the focus of how we frame "the future of learning" or "the future of work." Robots will never care for us.
