Ellie, she did apologize to her child, and she doesn't double down. She expresses regret.

"I feel like you got cheated. And I'm sorry for that."

"I acknowledge to you that I didn't do the best for you, and I am so sorry."

Richard Diebenkorn's 'Knife and Tomato,' (1963) belongs to series of glowing, sensuous pictures which celebrated light and colour of the everyday; reinforcing Diebenkorn's philosophy that they should be judged only in terms of painting.

Re LLM / stable diffusion slop, there’s this vague implication hanging in the air that we are absolved of our prior cultural and social sins in the face of an inhuman juggernaut, and I don’t think that’s true.

the union participation rate went up 0.1% from 2024 to 2025.
New Gallup polling finds that 71% of Americans approve of labor unions and 56 million Americans would join a union tomrorow if they could.

We are witnessing a historic rebirth of worker power.

If you want a better life for you and your children, join or support a union.
Unions are extremely popular: 56 million workers would join a union if they could

as with llm-generated oulipo, we, the public, don’t normally celebrate solutions to “generational math problems,” but now we collectively pretend we care about math because the Software God made an utterance.

it’s nice that you have more efficient albeit astronomically expensive autocomplete software for programming, but to the rest of us this sounds like you’re in hysterics over an ass-wiping machine when we’re quite capable of and comfortable with wiping our own asses
genuinely, if you're not re-evaluating your position on AI at least once every 1-2 months and re-evaluating how it performs for the types of tasks important to you, then you are not actually challenging your priors.

i know this is crazy! but thats how fast things are moving right now.
one thing i will say is that things are changing fast enough that if your priors are more than a month old, you need to challenge them again! astra for example is a very significant step forward for a lot of people's tasks.

I have an unpopular opinion that has never not felt justified. Subtitles for foreign language films are bad. If I wanted to read, I would read. I watch a movie to Observe the Image.

Purists claim dubs ruin the intended effect as if it's preferable to spend 2 hours looking at 10% of the screen.

streaming is a public health matter and a personal health matter and good or bad politics are kind of beside the point
Jewish Insider, the source of this clip, often has what I'd call tendentious coverage of this and related issues. But these words really speak for themselves. jewishinsider.com/2026/08/hasa...

Bluesky is social media, and as such, it harms us in the ways all social media harms us: in its infinitude (its virtually endless scroll), in algorithmic feeds, in the narrowing of expression (likes, reposts, character count), in virality, in pile-ons, etc etc

i’ve said it before: being a professional streamer is sufficient reason to hate hasan piker. everything else is gravy.
This week, Hasan Piker defended his use of "inbred" against ultra-Orthodox Jews by pointing out that he calls other groups inbred too.

Piker should know that’s not how tropes work. Something can be offensive to one group and not to another. And this word has been used for centuries to attack Jews.

wasn't today international vore day on bluesky?
the discourse is wild, man. bluesky is like the least horny place on the entire internet, then one director was like "I cut nude scenes out of my sex movie" and INSTANTLY everyone demanded nudity. and frankly I'm here for it. let's see it all hanging out, baby. for art. respectfully of course.

re data centers, there’s a very significant and self-aware Glonzo Is Real contingency on here and in the world, and AI centrists cannot comprehend them, so they smear the group as low info, “reactionary,” blue anon, blue maha, etc, instead of attempting to grapple with a reasoned opposition

years of lead?
I think there’s a big difference in these polls between “someone should firebomb a wal-mart” and “I, specifically, am going to firebomb a wal-mart” but regardless a world in which there’s a lot more political violence is not one we actually want to live in
