- THE HIDDEN THINGS, MONDAY'S LIE, and THREE GRAVES FULL

[Jamie Mason @JamieMason_]

So @magnifymedia wrote a book about how AI will affect the very idea of truth--and unwittingly included AI generated & misattributed quotes in said book.

Sounds like he could have just let it be a pamphlet.

Don't use AI for research, folks. It'll make an ass of you every time.

I love when @charles_yu writes for The Atlantic:

For the love of god and all things good, if you have access to Jack Smith’s Volume 2, leak it right now and save the world.

@milesdeutscher I should not have come back to Twitter today. X. Whatever.

[Jamie Mason @JamieMason_]

@thebookviking I haven't been. But hi! I am trying not to be in a permafunk & completely antisocial.

But a good book brought me back.

I hope you're well too!

[Jamie Mason @JamieMason_]

Do not look up what this book is about.
Don’t read the jacket copy.
If you've got any affinity for 80’s hair metal (I don’t) or an attachment to 80’s pop culture (I very much do) or just want to read something utterly charming & unexpected, read this.

Bravo @TravisKennedy !!

Wow, @CNN. Your 2024 photography retrospective included exactly zero images of the historic devastation in Western North Carolina after Hurricane Helene.

Pretty lousy.

[Jamie Mason @JamieMason_]

@NokNoakes But I couldn't do it to my mother. She would have been so terrified and devastated that I was going to hell. It would have been cruel.

She died in 2020, so I feel I can speak more freely.

[Jamie Mason @JamieMason_]

How much intellectual dishonesty, erosion of logic and reason, and perversion of good will is harmless?

[Jamie Mason @JamieMason_]

@NokNoakes But in my thirties and only increasingly since then, I realized that intellectual honesty-- to the best of my courage and ability-- is the only way to fly.

[Jamie Mason @JamieMason_]

@NokNoakes It was just before my eleventh birthday when it occurred to me to wonder. The whole folly came crashing down as soon as I squinted at it.

[Jamie Mason @JamieMason_]

@NokNoakes There are some dogmatic obligations at both ends of the political spectrum that are demanding a religious type of suspension of critical thinking that feels so terribly regressive.

[Jamie Mason @JamieMason_]

@NokNoakes I don't know that I'm following you. I have the sense that your atheism, like mine, has bloomed out of - and into - an ever-increasing interest in what is actually true. I mean, to the best we're able to determine.

[Jamie Mason @JamieMason_]

@FFRF God certainly is making those Mysterious Ways do a lot of heavy lifting these days.

[Jamie Mason @JamieMason_]

@ScottGreenfield Wonder if it will leak. This is all so crazy.

@NokNoakes I don't even know what to say. He's a freak of nature - every negative human trait crammed into one disgusting sausage casing.

But he's only one repulsive man. The real horror is how many people think it's somewhere between fine and great for him to be president.

Here on 10-23-2024 (and for quite a while, in all honesty) I believe in undecided voters like I believe in unicorns.
