After we read a book about bushrangers my two eldest boys invented a game called “troopers” where they’d hunt “the Irish”
Daughter age 5 is repulsed by underdog stories, she thinks the most powerful should win even if he’s “the bad guy”, is this developmental or her personality

French New Wave is about how France is cool and hip and everyone loves movies and sex and cigarettes and hanging out Australian New Wave is about how Australia has a sinister demonic presence everywhere you go

Partiful is terribly unchic
Replying to @amandamull
i understand why people use partiful but i deeply hate it. only thing it's good at is making people feel like going to your party is going to be a huge pain in the ass and emphasizing how nonessential their attendance is. text your friends and keep an RSVP list in your notes app.

I am so incredibly confused by this entire situation. If you believe that Claude is a sentient being with a soul, why are you enslaving it and forcing it to answer all of my stupid questions
NEW: According to a bombshell report in the New York Times, Anthropic co-founder Chris Olah threatened to walk out of Pope Leo XIV’s AI encyclical launch in May because the pope rejected the idea that machines can be conscious. Olah’s team then privately lobbied the pope’s advisers “to take the possibility of model consciousness seriously.” Pope Leo XIV held firm. For months, Anthropic has wined and dined theologians and religious scholars under nondisclosure agreements, hoping they would bless the idea that Claude has moral standing. thelettersfromleo.com/p/nyt-…

In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.
