I would rather attend an event with a super shitty, MS paint made flyer, an event with a flyer scrawled in crayon by your nondominant hand, than attend an event advertised with an AI slop flyer.

yes, it's people who have extracted value from ai vs. people who have only seen it extract value from them. i don't think people who have been exploited owe any grace to those evangelizing it to them, which is why i wish enthusiasts would leave the skeptics alone and stop acting like the underdogs

Should These Abandoned Tracks Become a Park or a Train Line? Or Both?

Paris is in the process of building 4 new subway lines covering 120 miles of track and serving 68 new Metro stations. New York City should be able to add 4 stops by extending an existing subway line along an existing right of way. Can we have just a little ambition? www.nytimes.com/2026/03/25/n...

You’d think expensive oil would make our government focus on solar and wind energy, you would of course be wrong

Do you care about things? The AI companies want to stop that. Their product, more than any other invention in human history, is training you to stare dead-eyed while a machine serves you a stream of mediocrity

"AI" is a program of rooting out every little tiny bit of light in your life and extinguishing it

I'm not entirely sure how they did it, but they've completely cleared the streets around my office in Midtown #NYC.

They paid a lot of people good wages to do the job effectively, thank you for coming to my socialism talk

It's kinda annoying how solar panels were hung around the neck of the left as impractical pie in the sky treehugger shit *right* up until it started outcompeting every other energy source. Then suddenly, instead of going "hey the left was correct about solar" it's no longer a "left" idea!

There’s going to be Covid style shortages of cars, TVs and even washing machines and fridges, then job losses because assembly lines can’t source solid state memory, just so the stupidest person you know can state with 100% confidence a chatbot confirmed dinosaurs coexisted with humans.

ICE has completely broken our social contract.

They manipulate social trust and are creating lasting damage to our most basic social foundations

but why do we intuitively consider AI art to be dishonest? well, there’s all the plagiarism, for one thing. but honestly, i don’t think most people are thinking about that!

art is a form of communication, so let’s draw an analogy with language and talk about The Cooperative Principle (1/6)
