Went to the grocery store with my kindergartener. We weighed some bananas: 2 pounds even. We weighed a watermelon: 4 pounds even. We weighed some mangos: a little over 1 pound. We weighed the watermelon AND the bananas: 6 pounds even.

“That’s funny” said the child “because 2+4=6 and two pounds and four pounds is six pounds. It’s like the same as math!”

“What happens if you add 6+1?”

“SEVEN”

“What if we put one pound of mangos on the scale?” <mangos added>

“IT’S THE SAME!!”

“OK, what’s 7-4?”

“Three?”

“What if we take the four pound watermelon off the scale?” <watermelon removed>

“Mama! Are you telling me math works In Real Life? Think of all the things you could measure!!”

you really have to wonder why is ai so widely accessible when all our lives we’ve been told nothing in life is free

disabled people have to live below the poverty line to have access to things that give them independence, but ai is largely free and marketed as a tool to make life easier for everyone, it’s a therapist, it’s a partner, it’s an ‘art’ tool it’s getting people degrees in school… and then you read the studies where they’re proving ai is causing severe cognitive decline and it all makes sense, that’s exactly the type of people that can be controlled en masse, people that cannot think without being spoon fed information

we are seeing this in every day life, “it’s not that deep” no because you are incapable of thinking about it that deep because chatgpt can spit out anything for you In seconds, media literacy is at an all time low, tv shows are made with a formula that assumes you’ll be doing another task while you have it on, and this is all on purpose, why do you think short form content is pushed on every platform when it’s also been proven that it fucks with the way our brain works, we’re being trained to not to think, to not resist

That's us, together.

While we're looking up at the Artemis II astronauts journeying to the Moon, they're looking back home at us.

In this image, Earth peeks through the capsule window, reminding us that a view like this relies on the ingenuity and hard work of countless people back home.
