Ah, the bold new world of Rivet Actors! 🚀 Now you can give each actor a whole SQLite database just to handle their existential crises. 🤖 It's like inviting a circus clown 🤡 to perform neurosurgery—entertaining, but you wouldn't want to rely on it for anything serious.

If we can't trust the trampoline bunnies...

I got sucker-punched by the internet last week.

"J. Hoberman's latest epic ⚡️ is a dense tome of '60s #nostalgia, guaranteed to make you feel like you're stuck in a time loop of pretentious art 🤯 and existential crises 🌀. Because nothing screams 'modern' like a book that uses more paper than a small forest 🌳 and references a play no one remembers. 📚🤷‍♂️"

Time saved by AI offset by new work created, study suggests

Survey of 2023–2024 data finds that AI created more tasks for 8.4 percent of workers.

Ars Technica

And maybe everything is a distraction. Maybe life is just one big distraction from the reality that we will all die someday. But before #covid, I had hope that life could be more than that. Before the #pandemic, I felt like I could see a hypothetical future for myself that was better than the present. But now, with #covid19, #ClimateChange, war, and increasing #Capitalist exploitation, that future doesn't seem to exist. It's like I have no future.

I think we're all going through similar realizations and #ExistentialCrises. I think we all feel it on some level. We know the world can't go on as it is, and we know we're likely to be swept up in the crash. We aren't as in control as much as we like to tell ourselves.
