"as long as nobody knows, it's in private, and I'm not affecting anyone else, it doesn't matter" actually false.

the way you choose to conduct yourself in private shapes your habits and therefore the formation of your personhood, and thereby ripples outwards to affect your connections with others--not just in their opinion of you, but possibly in their own actions as well.

you are not an island in this world, and the things you do will be refracted back at you, even if you never speak a word of them. how you choose to grow yourself as a person is important because you are one alongside many. large changes (and their consequences), whether they occur in family, smaller friend circles, or on a society-wide basis, are never enacted from nothing.

your personal actions do in fact have wide-spreading consequences among your smaller circle and ultimately your community.

Currently obsessed with the idea of Markiplier being a youtuber within the Project Hail Mary universe. Like, aboard the ship contained with All Of Humanity's Knowledge contains Markiplier's entire YouTube channel (omitting iron lung in this case).

Grace himself was not active on that side of the internet, if at all, but his students certainly were. Any time the number 87 is mentioned the 6th grade class for several years proclaim "Was that the bite of 87!?!?". He needs to tell them to tone it down sometimes, but once he asked them where it was from and several students enthusiastically tell them about their favorite youtuber and start dishing out fnaf lore unprompted. Another one pipes up talking about his choose your own adventure videos and his creativity with YouTube as a medium.

Grace doesn't think about it too much, but after one incoming apocalypse, one chemical conscription to the space force, and 4 years comatose in space later, he stumbles upon the anomalous iron submarine full of blood floating in the middle of nowhere?????? and he cracks it open and not only is there an Entire Human Being (plus or minus an arm) in there, but inside the vessel us The YouTuber Markiplier!?!?!?!??!?! The Bite of 87 guy my kids love???? Huh!?!??!?!?

She won an exemption from using AI at her tech job. The Pope's remarks could fuel similar appeals.

Legal experts say employers must take AI-related religious objections seriously, as a 2023 ruling raised the bar for denying such accommodat

"The funniest possible outcome of the AI mandate era is about to be HR departments discovering that 'sincerely held religious belief' under Title VII has a much lower bar than they assumed, and Pope Leo handed every Catholic employee a written excuse," wrote Corey Quinn, a software-startup founder in San Francisco, on X.

Employers could wind up in court if they outright dismiss workers who request a faith-based exemption from using AI, said Ashley Herd, a former McKinsey counsel and head of North American HR who now advises managers and employers on workplace issues.

"Playing priest, and telling employees their request isn't legitimate, does not tend to bode well for companies," said Herd, also a cohost of the "HR Besties" podcast. "A jury doesn't like it when employees get made fun of by managers or HR."

Just watched Adam Conover (of Adam Ruins Everything) make such a solid point that I think we should spread far and wide. Yes, having AI write your emails is lazy, sure, but people love being lazy. We need to really emphasize that sending AI emails (or using AI responses on social media, or publishing AI flyers, or or or) is rude.

It's rude. You're making someone take their time to read something you couldn't bother to write. You're telling them they were so unimportant you couldn't be bothered to actually take the time to say something yourself. And frankly, you're lying about it while you're at it.

It's rude.

every other week, my mom would make a giant pot of vegetable soup. she'd pack half of it in a tupperware and take it to her best friend's house. they both had three kids whose ages aligned. they'd lock us out of the house and go through each room, finding every piece of dirty laundry and then spend the afternoon keeping the washer and dryer running, folding and putting away each load while gossiping.

every alternate week, her best friend would come to our house with a tupperware full of chicken spaghetti. they'd stick us in front of a tv with a stack of disney vhs tapes and go through each room, finding every dirty dish, and then spend the afternoon at the kitchen sink, washing each dish by hand while gossiping.

it wasn't always soup and spaghetti and laundry and dishes. but it was almost always a meal and a chore. here is a night you don't have to cook dinner. here is a chore you can cross off your list. and here is a day you don't have to spend alone. because really food and friendship and a feeling of accomplishment are what we all need most.

Project Hail Mary is a fantastic example of how filmmakers can create a faithful adaptation and still take artistic liberties. The writers didn't try to copy the book to a tee, and added their own elements (the mental health room, the astrophage transition, the beach scene on erid, Grace's wardrobe etc). They understood that a film is a different artistic medium than a book and tried to write the story in a way that best suited that medium, all while staying loyal to the original story and themes.
