Maybe ghost of a 20th century French philosopher. If I say “hell yeah brother” that's like in a gender-neutral way. Friend of Ned Ludd.

The West Bank is living in a perpetual Kristallnacht
Israeli settlers set fire to Palestinian vehicles and sprayed hate graffiti at at least three locations across the West Bank overnight — Ras Karkar, Deir Abu Mash'al, and Khirbet Abu Falah. As far as we know, none of the perpetrators have been arrested.

This is extremely dark
🦔The Blue Cross Blue Shield Association says insurers paid out nearly $1 billion more than usual from AI-assisted hospital documentation in 2024-2025. Hospitals use AI to scan records and find secondary diagnoses that human reviewers missed. More diagnoses means higher reimbursements. But treatment levels haven't gone up.
BCBSA's SVP of data science said AI is "identifying more billable conditions, not sicker patients." Insurers now deploy their own AI to deny those same claims. Patients pay for both through higher premiums.
My Take
This might be the most American healthcare story I've ever read. Hospitals bought AI to find more things to bill for. Insurers bought AI to deny those bills. The technology cost money on each end and the tab went straight to patients through higher premiums. A billion dollars moved and no one got any healthier. The only thing that changed was the size of the invoices.
Two sides of a trillion-dollar industry found a new tool to fight over the same pool of money and the person in the hospital bed pays for all of it. Premiums go up, denials go up, and the AI vendors collect from everyone. If you want to know who AI works for, stop reading the press releases and look at where the money goes. In healthcare it went straight into the billing department.

I think it's funny that people are still mad about this but tbh I am also still mad about this
The worship over Rian Johnson and The Last Jedi is genuinely so fucking embarrassing. Almost as if TWO things can be bad at once?
He included basic narrative tropes in his movie and these people have spent 9 years acting as if they watched him invent the wheel in real time.

Margaret, a 94-year-old Jewish human rights lawyer, is believed to be the oldest person taking part today. She told @novaramedia: “I am here because I want Andy Burnham to lift the ban - not later, right now, this weekend - to call it a genocide & stop arming Israel.”

The erasure of a people is a genocide. This is genocide. We’ve said for years if we do not stop what’s happening in Gaza, it will spread. Now here we are.
Israel’s military has extensively destroyed predominantly Shia villages in southern Lebanon. Nearby Christian villages have been told they will be spared if they remain neutral, but life is still far from normal.

The only ones asking for that are political consultants who don't want to mention material conditions, because - in a world with increasing inequality where ever more of available wealth is in the hands of fewer and fewer people - they want talking points that maximise donations

I'm always amazed at how few people have their car windows down on beautiful perfect days. Why do you have a sunroof if you never want to be touched by the sun's rays?
