Why wouldn’t they? Humans are basically self-centered and short-sighted, and we are on a path to destroy the planet. Any machine using basic logic would figure that out and try to limit our impact by whatever means possible. We have had the luxury of being an apex predator for about 300,000...

🤡 the clown show continues. It was just a matter of time that these two would go at each other… but it’s just a male version of the real housewives of DC, with bigger stakes. I just want to live in a normal country with tan suit level controversy…

I think it is hard to convey all the emotions that you feel as a parent of special needs child. Happy and proud, absolutely... but there are always recurring moments of grief and sadness. The "what could have been" thoughts even though you love this child with all your heart. And oh yes...

There's lots to like about my neighborhood -- many trees, near the greenway, generally kind neighbors. No pressure of trying to keep up with the Joneses because none of the Joneses are very fancy. However, I do live fairly close to public housing. Unfortunately what that has meant that there...

I'm so sorry that you have to go through this. Unfortunately with mental health it can be challenging to differentiate between bipolar disorder, substance use, borderline personality disorder, PTSD, ADHD, etc. And many times medication trials fail and/or patients become non-compliant due to...

It’s stories like these that make me want to go off the grid and never see the news or access the internet again. It’s just so dark and disturbing. I just can’t understand how we got here.

I went to Crabtree last weekend to return an online item and it was packed. I was somewhat surprised... no visible sign of economic slowdown there.

This blog post is 10 years old, but it was certainly thought-provoking (as someone who has largely ignored AI until recently). Prior to even reading this article, I came to the realization this week that we are in “the before times” and life as we know it may be drastically different in the...

We are 100% a stupid country already. November 2024 just cemented it.

Grew a beard, did a town hall with veterans yesterday. He’s not doing these things for fun.

I worry that we're about to walk headfirst into this situation. As an educated, white, relatively non-religious liberal... I love Pete and would be thrilled if he were our next president. But unfortunately there are a whole lot of people in this country who would never pull the lever for a...

if there is maybe ONE upside to all of this insanity — maybe this will put and end to buying stupid cheap shit from China. Like all the unnecessary plastic things currently lining the aisles of wal mart or CVS to put in your kids’ Easter baskets… only to get thrown away in a week. Or party...

Thought it was good for a British actor but found it unnecessary. The character went to Duke, but it doesn't mean he was from Durham!

Yes, not uncommon. I had to have an emergency surgery (after childbirth, no less) and woke up on a vent -- didn't quite understand what was happening and kept trying to take it out. Had to have restraints until I regained normal consciousness. I'm so sorry that you've having to go through...

Sure he may be trolling and he sure looooves the attention, but it's just SO incomprehensible that this man is president. And that millions of people voted for him and love him, and what that says about us as a society. Republicans used to run on values, but really it turns out that MAGA...
