WTF. The electric company in Texas doesn't have a map of outages so people have been using the Whataburger App to figure out who lost power. This is like when Homer was using the Krusty Burger map when they got lost at sea.

Newsletter: Goldman Sachs has called BS on Generative AI, and I believe that it's time that everybody follows suit - generative AI is unreliable, unsustainable, requires an entire rebuild of America's power grid, and is most decidedly not the future.

How hot is NYC? A bridge got stuck open.
The vertical clearance of the bridge is only about 25 feet.The Harlem River connects with the East River at its southern end and the Hudson at its northern end. Video is from the executive producer of the NBC affiliate in NYC.

Do I know anyone who can do a cover design? I've got the ebook front cover and I need a wraparound for a KDP edition. It shouldn't need saying, but obviously I will fairly pay for this work. The only catch is I'd need it before Worldcon, so ideally within 2-3 weeks, faster if at all possible?

Gosh, you seem narrow-focused about this. UK antho diff from US anthro, but I suppose I look more at systems than slices, which is why I'm anthro and not socio. Still, your lumping disciplines like this is a shame because there are people who care and are outside the norms that seem to frustrate you

The 14th Amendment says if you were involved in an insurrection you can't be president. SCOTUS said they won't allow anyone to enforce that because of reasons they made up. The Constitution doesn't say the president is immune from criminal law. SCOTUS decided he is because of reasons they made up.

A few years ago, Jon Lovett floated a theory that media treats Democrats like protagonists - to be challenged, accounted, and forced to be behave in growth-oriented ways - while the GOP are treated like antagonists - immutable, expected to disrupt, thematic obstacles. Thinking about that a lot.
