Zhang Shan won the gold medal for the mixed skeet shooting event in the 1992 Olympics.

The International Shooting Union *immediately* banned women from competing against men.

Wife: The way you know AI is a scam is that the same party and people who have been waging war on public school funding for 50 years are now pushing to spend tax money to get AI into public schools and saying they're doing it to "level the playing field" or so "kids don't get left behind"

For a long time, DC used me (with my consent, I always found it flattering) when they had a side character they felt had lost its shine. The idea is that I was good at rehabbing them and giving them a bit more clear purpose and style.

I always found it super fun and challenging in a good way.

What Will It Take to Get A.I. Out of Schools? “I find myself speaking with my kids about A.I. in the same terms that we might discuss a creepy neighbor who lives down the block,” Jessica Winter writes. Read her report on the push for A.I. in educ...

An outstanding, comprehensive rebuke of AI mania in K-12 by @winterjessica.bsky.social that rounds out by highlighting the growing coalition of parents, educators, and other concerned humans that is working fast and hard to tamp it down.

one required, but sadly enormous, shift in the way americans view things: recovering an understanding that a democratic government is a collective enterprise that should deliver tangible services and benefits to people

Dying in office because you insisted on clinging to power until the very end instead of letting a new generation of leaders rise should be seen for the shameful, egomaniacal act that it is.

This is good stuff. I've never wanted to retvrn as such, but the dumbing-down of popular entertainment has been hard to ignore, and it's obviously a top-down project, not what "the people" want.

I remember when everything started moving to apps and I was morally offended at the idea of having to download all these little programs to access services when the Internet was right there and you know what, I was right

I hate that Troy Baker is a genuinely talented voice actor because he's also a terribly petty and insufferable human being.

I spoke with The Pitt star Tal Anderson (Becca!) about how the HBO series is dismantling Hollywood’s long‑standing myths about autism.

it is so interesting to think about what killing each other has usually been and what it is now

something brutal, hands-on, physically taxing, even with a weapon—

our brains are not meant to cope with being able to kill so easily. cruelty was like…hoarding bananas, not murdering people.

both the thing Senor Cardgage would be eating and what he would call it

not saying her dismal name, but I know plenty of trans single mums and every single one of them is rhetorically erased whenever you start your, "but she used to be a single mum" surrender speech.

Sánchez, Lula Lead 'Work for Peace' and Equality at Gathering of Global Progressive Leaders in Spain | Common Dreams Join progressive leaders from around the world in Barcelona this weekend as they unite against extremism, inequality, and misinformation. Can democracy prevail in the face of rising authoritarianism? ...

“The good news is that, from Zohran Mamdani and [Congresswoman] Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in New York to Pedro Sánchez in Spain, from Lula in Brazil to [Green Party Leader] Zack Polanski in the UK, we may be seeing the early signs of a new cross-border alliance taking shape against global oligarchy.”

The thing about my posting is you will never know if I am posting drunk, high or sober. All posts are the same from me. You can guess but you’ll be wrong, always wrong. I am God’s Cruel and Divine Mystery #gcadm

It's had the opposite effect on me (which is very much still an effect, don't get me wrong); I've made myself try to sound less and less like an AI, including trying not to use "It's not X it's Y," which sucks because It's not X It's Y is great. (The em dash stays though.)

remember when celebrities seemingly randomly started coming out talking about how much they loved NFTs and thought it was super valuable and the future?

Despite the extreme and well-deserved unpopularity of the Catholic Church in recent decades, the fact that the pope acts like he’s not scared of Donald Trump and politely tells him to go fuck himself has made the pope very popular. I wonder if there is any lesson to learn from this.

I’m going to be annoyed for life by the way people convinced themselves that opposing things like racism and transphobia meant you’d been “duped” by elites.
