This is how. Greta Thunberg spits fire and gives you the only media training you may ever need.

Reporter: How did the Israelis treat you, we saw them giving sandwiches?
Greta Thunberg: They probably have posted lots of PR stunts, they did an illegal act by kidnapping us in international waters but that’s not the real story here. The real story is the genocide in Gaza and systematic starvation.
Reporter: Are you worried about the others?
Greta: Yes…I’m calling for everyone who can to mobilize to demand their immediate release and, of course, to demand not only humanitarian aid being let into Gaza but also a ceasefire and most importantly an end to the occupation, an end to the systemic oppression and violence that Palestinians are facing on an everyday basis.
Reporter: “Why do you think so many countries and governments around the world are just ignoring what’s happening in Gaza?”
Greta Thunberg: “Because of racism.”

@lo__ good point. I was thinking more in the lines of infrastructure. Open AI is not much without Microsoft. I wonder if they overcome that.

Im a pretty okay writer. I post to my blog once every 45 days (give or take). I don’t do much promotion. I limit my SEO to technical stuff. I’m not on corporate social media.

Yet, I get a respectable amount of traffic each month. “From Jason” is one of the most popular things I’ve ever made. And it’s literally just text on a static site.

There is a thirst for writing; a desire for humanity in our art. Keep writing. Keep sharing.

Violence only begets more violence. De-militarize and de-arm cops today.

Violence is never the answer against protesters. See there. I fixed it.

Lately, I've been more aware of what gets a piece of my limited daily mental capacity.

Today, I've decided that all of it goes to how (posh?) British people are pronouncing "iOS"

Stop it right now.

To me, smoking is something you do on a balcony, porch, or fire escape, with a dear friend. The kind of person you don't need words to communicate with. It's a calming, re-centering activity. A reset button.

One reason people insist that
you use the proper channels
to change things is because
they have control of the proper
channels and they're confident
it won't work

Don’t forget why change is so hard to discuss, in city-building, or in anything. Study after study shows we’re actually wired to be “loss averse”— the idea of losing something bothers us twice as much as gaining something equal makes us happy. But there’s loss in being stuck in a costly status quo.

@wordsmith possible but that would be outside typical behavior for Ice Cubes. Maybe the poster is hiding the hashtags somehow? Basic CSS that ice cubes is accepting?

It’s interesting, in the age of streaming we have these aesthetic wrappers, aka IP, that has completely taken over how movies and TVs are made.

Everything is a cinematic universe. Disney exclusively deals in cinematic universes.

John Wick, Mad Max, “From the world of…”

I don’t hate it. It’s a thing. Maybe too big; too important. But we do get some unique story telling out of it sometimes i.e. Andor.
