The issue with people “letting AI do the reading for them” is that a society that does not read is a society that can’t think critically. It can be easily manipulated by authoritarians. When we don’t read we are less informed, more dependent on tech tools, and more compliant.

Seems important that in Fahrenheit 451, books were still “available” in single-paragraph summaries—“read Hamlet in five minutes!”—but the books themselves had been banned for being too difficult. Tech boosters see a warning and think it’s an instruction manual.

Some biologists are speculating that the ash fall provided an excess of nutrients to the soil that allows them to reach the exponential growth phase. It could be that the ash killed many small insects/plants, and so they had a large amount of decaying things to eat.

Notes from my biology PhD candidate brother:
Invasive species tend to go through three stages.
1. The introduction
2. Exponential growth
3. Population crash or plateau
The rusty millipedes are most likely going through the 2nd phase, this could be due to many factors.

Wherever you are in the world, you should be very scared about what is being permitted to happen to Palestinians.
You should be very scared that journalists are being targeted, killed, jailed and tortured. And this should make you question every outlet that has not covered their targeting.
You should be very scared that human rights groups are unable to speak freely, act freely to talk about the starvation of men, women and children.
You should be very scared as to how every hospital has been targeted along with its doctors, honorable doctors taken Dr Hussam Abu Safeya or killed like Dr Adnan Al Bursh. You should be very scared that not every doctor and person in the medical field has not expressed outrage.
You should be very scared…wherever you are in this world to see these atrocities acted out with such ease and to be in a world that is crying silently.

This man is raging about all the tourists clogging up the gym and driving like idiots on the road. He's been a citizen for less than a month.
Some couples have lovely romantic evenings cooking together. I get physically removed from the kitchen because I'm "too loud for souffle"

Movies love romantic scenes with the leads cooking together. Why isn't the chef sweaty and annoyed? When she dips a finger in the cake batter, where's his lecture on food safety? Why isn't anyone saying keep your stinking food and storming off?
0/10, so unrealistic
