Yeah the president is threatening to use nukes and the opposition party isn’t doing anything but Microsoft Excel needs my attention right now

@kingjames, I would welcome the chance to turn your criticism into action in one of the most important cities in the world. Come to Memphis and roll around with me for a bit and I will show you some of the culture and powerful investment opportunities in our City.

Mane said “They got Vanderbilt.” 😂

My THOUGHTS on what @KingJames said about Memphis!

Immaterial right???

Me and the IT guy after I pass the phishing test

At my next job, I’m gonna lie about having a kid so I can leave the office anytime I want like everyone else with kids

BURGUM: “That will lower the price of gas for Americans…” TRUMP: “Forget that, when is Venezuela gonna do the statue (of me)?” Trump in a nutshell 🥜 ⬆️

I wrote about the musical connection between Clarksdale, MS (the setting of Sinners) and Memphis. And how Memphis is perhaps the most impactful city in the history of black music. And how Coogler discussed on a Breakfast Club interview how the tragic passing of Memphis’s own Young Dolph’s played a part in him creating Sinners

The Las Vegas Aces plan to sign A’ja Wilson to a $1.4 million supermax contract, per @Callie__Fin (h/t @Fullcourtpass )

SHOHEI! WE ARE FLIPPING OUT IN MIAMI 😮

The Sopranos is an incredible show about how therapy speak causes people to become worse human beings. Truly ahead of its time

Marathon records to me are some of the most insane records in all sports. This time is a 4:22 mile which no one reading this could achieve, which is a 65 second 400 which very few reading this could achieve, and he did it for 13 straight miles. Just insane

NO CEO WILL EVER OUT BURGERMOG THIS GUY.

An unarmed Iranian ship was invited to take part in an Indian naval exercise alongside the United States. Its sailors were welcomed on land and paraded before the president as a gesture of cooperation. Then, at the last moment, the United States abruptly withdrew from the exercise,only to turn around and torpedo the very ship it had just stood beside. What followed was even more grotesque. After attacking an unarmed vessel, the US refused to rescue the sailors it had thrown into the sea, abandoning them to drown. The grim work of recovering bodies was left to the Sri Lankan Navy. This wasn’t warfare,it was treachery of the most disgraceful kind: an ambush carried out under the pretense of diplomacy, followed by a cold refusal to show even the most basic human decency to the dying. It would represent a collapse of every norm that supposedly governs civilized conduct at sea. And yet, instead of outrage, much of the American media response has been indifference or rationalization. The bombing of a girls’ school is brushed aside; talk of carpet-bombing Tehran is floated as if it were just another policy option. When atrocities are normalized and cruelty is laundered into “strategy,” the line between reporting and complicity begins to disappear.

To raise shareholder value...

He's not just defending AI energy use. He is smuggling in a whole anthropology where humans are basically inefficient meat computers that you have to pour food and years into before they become useful. And once you accept that, the next move is obvious. If people are just costly biological training runs, then burning mountains of electricity to build synthetic intelligence starts to feel not only equal, but superior, even if it negatively impacts actual humans. That is the dystopian. It makes human development sound like a bug in the system, and it makes sacrificing human and creational flourishing for more computational power sound logical. To him, the grid gets strained, prices go up, ecosystems get hit, but hey, humans eat too, so what's the difference? The difference is that humans aren't an inefficient line item. They're the point. If your worldview can look at a child growing into an adult and describe it as energy spent to train intelligence, you haven't said something profound. You've revealed a horrifically rotten worldview.
