@zenahitz One need not argue with those who don’t appreciate Flannery O’Connor. One need only pity them.

@lukeburgis I read here just how much ethics is worth to them. Pro forma, Pro $$$— for them.

Luke Burgis@lukeburgis·
One of the largest AI companies in the world reaches out seeking consultation and feedback from me. Requests time and attention that would require 40+ hours of my time—at least if I'm going to do it well. After listening to how "ethical" they are over and over, I pick up that the main gist is that I should consider giving my time for free, for the good of humanity, because of how much is at stake, to help improve their model. This is a VC-backed, for-profit company which has raised many, many billions of dollars in funding, and solicits help as if they are a church.

@ericmetaxas That’s wrong— and now how about an audit of Trump? Biggest grift on US citizens ever.

Great event at the Hank Center last night where I responded to Fr. Mark Massa's talk on Catholic fundamentalism (including some conversation about fundamentalism on social media) @HankCenterLUC @boisi_center

In honor of the Hoosiers being in the National Championship (🥹), posting a pic from my IU years (1997). This girl would have rolled her eyes if you told her that Dominican friars would run the Catholic Center and IU football would have an undefeated season. Incredible stuff.

@SohrabAhmari While prescient, Orwell was preemptive with a 1984 date. However, the way this admin is going, we look well set for 2084. Lib orthodoxies are sometimes troubling (but at least anchored in some form of freedom); but the ones we see out of DC today are not. Propagandist raw power

Morons of X— let’s get one thing clear: just because a person resists the many errors, violations, and policy fouls this administration commits on daily basis does not make him a leftist. But then fools are almost always lazy.

@ericmetaxas Rarely have I read a more amateurish take on what popes do and how they work in the world. The church and its popes will bury its undertakers, as always, and model the example of the Christ and the demands of the Gospel.

@DavidPaternostr I saw Ordinary People with my extended family over the holidays when it came out. A couple of my aunts were particularly rattled. Special film and so revolutionary. I now live very near several of the film locations.

I'm making a Tom Petty playlist for @SamAdlerBell—which is an extremely high pressure situation, given that Petty is one of the few non-overlaps in our musical tastes. I have 15 songs, and I'm so close to putting his cover of Lucinda's Change the Locks...high risk/high reward...
