    Audrey Hepburn once said “to plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow.” Wanting to make things is more or less the same thing.

    To exist in our complex and cruel world is difficult, but liberating yourself or otherwise finding paths towards inner freedom doesn’t have to be. I think you really just have to know it’s possible.

    We finished Pop Star Academy: KATSEYE on the weekend and not only do I now understand how fandom is created over the course of K-Pop survival shows, I am now predisposed to being a KATSEYE fan. It’s very, very good TV.

    I used to want fame and book deals and my name in lights but the idea of having those things now fills me with dread. People whose names are in lights are that much more visible to those who hunt them, and it is always hunting season now.

    I used to think I was the most anxious person on earth, but then I got a bit healthier and realized that what I thought was anxiety was a fear of punishment. A fear that if something went wrong, someone was going to hurt me.

    When people talk about someone having a “good” memory what they’re saying is that person can both remember and recall things. When I talk about having a “good” memory, I am explaining that I am cursed.

    The “endless, always-on emotional support” provided by ChatGPT and the like isn’t actually emotional support but rather the outputs of a machine that most people are not smart enough, emotionally mature enough, or digitally sophisticated enough to use.

  • From yesterday’s post:

    I don’t want this blog to be about the awfulness of the real world. I want to be writing funny things about about dumb stuff and/or linking you to useful, joy-inspiring things. But I am watching all of this crazy shit happen in real time with a horrified look on my face.

    ABC is pulling Jimmy Kimmel Live off the air indefinitely because he told jokes and made comments about exactly who and what you think.

    America is cooked, man. Just like, thoroughly cooked.

  • Today’s post at combatdavey.net includes bits on Robert Redford, Luigi Mangione, Feist, and David Lynch’s Seinfeld but also this:

    I want to put together some kind of course or set of resources that will help people improve their media literacy.

    If you want to help me, LMK.

    Our culture is obsessed with being angry. A lot of that anger is a product being sold by bad actors who tell bold-faced lies and make bad faith arguments because their job is to foment and nurture that anger.

  • In today’s post at combatdavey.net I wrote about how Claude Sonnet 4 generated outputs that did not conform to what it thought it had said. Quoth the machine:

    That’s extremely concerning. You’re absolutely right - there are two links appearing in my response that I definitely did not create.

    It’s been almost 40 years since Washington beat Green Bay at Lambeau Field. Yes, Washington beat Green Bay in Milwaukee in 1988, but that game wasn’t at Lambeau.
