Since we've been looking for more things to do, @emilymbender @mmitchell_ai @mcmillan_majora and I wrote a statement about the horrible "letter" on the AI apocalypse, the very first citation of which, was our #StochasticParrots paper. dair-institute.org/blog/letter-st…

A note to our community and to our authors: we recently updated our guidelines to make it explicit that all articles submitted to TDS must be written entirely by humans. buff.ly/3PsntZe

It really makes no sense to waste your time on upper-middle grifts when you can grift for the wealthiest idiot that has ever lived

We've published more than 6,000 stories so far in 2022. It was extremely hard to choose, but here are some of the most memorable ones. buff.ly/3iLLWMs

Download some podcasts and stop by the Dunkin’ for a big coffee: we’re going on one hell of a road trip. Mexico. Mormons. A search for truth, faith, connection, autonomy. Contradictions? They abound! Welcome to Pipe Wrench no. 8, The Road Trip Issue. 🧵 pipewrenchmag.com/issue-eight-we…

Some news! I'm excited to share that I've joined The New York Times as an editor on the Business desk and am getting back into the personal finance space. I'll be bringing a lot of my Billfold sensibility to the section, so if you missed that, you're in luck!

In August 2019, my former employer @EmilyCarrU hired Gina Adams, an “Ojibwe-Lakota” artist, as part of a restricted search for Indigenous faculty. Then people started asking questions about her identity— including me. My first feature for @macleans: macleans.ca/longforms/the-…

@anne_theriault They loved it, despite finding the playgrounds underwhelming (which: not wrong)

@anne_theriault Ha, we were just there 3 weeks ago! We took the Uber-operated (🤷🏻‍♂️) river bus from the tower pier to Westminster, and it was delightful; they even serve London’s least overpriced mini-bottles of prosecco on board!

Is being gender-fluid “new”? Ha! Indigenous people have been rejecting binaries for millennia, and they’d like your colonialism off their bodies. 🧵🔧 Welcome to the Nonbinary Issue, a rich tapestry that defies categorization. pipewrenchmag.com/issue-seven-we…

Egon Schiele Pikachu ftw

@karachiiite So weird to realize that for some of these anonymous NYer sources, a union = social clique that decides whose rights to protect based on whether or not they like them
