Marie Curie's notebooks are crazy once you think about it. They're so radioactive they have to be sealed in a lead box. Imagine a world where atomic theory is forgotten and a dude just goes "yea there's a book that details the secrets of the universe, the machinations of the creation of existence down to its barest essentials, but if you get close to it you fucking die. The more you read it the more your body slowly disassembles into mush." like wat excuse me
i've noticed just how often achilles' dragging of hector's corpse is framed mostly as an act of extreme disrespect, or only some brutal show of triumph. personally i think that's underselling both achilles' intention and what the trojans must be thinking as they watch it happen.
hector's corpse is divinely protected so it can't be damaged by the greeks after death; all that effectively happens in the iliad is that his body gets dirty. but under normal circumstances (and i'm not gonna impose realism on mythology, but the iliad is famously detailed when it comes to bodily trauma), the physical reality of dragging a corpse along stony ground for miles would be severe disfigurement and dismemberment. first the skin would wear off, then soft tissues, then extremities would start to detach. i think the iliad's original audience would be aware of that as an intended outcome.
achilles (who doesn't yet know that hector's body has been granted divine stasis) doesn't just want to parade his enemy's corpse around, he wants to tear it apart ("i only wish that this fury inside my heart would drive me to carve you to pieces and eat your flesh raw..."), he wants it to not resemble a human anymore. he wants hector's blood and flesh to circle the city of troy. he wants to make it impossible for hector's family to gather the pieces of him to cremate and that way hector's spirit won't find passage into the underworld. that's what the gods are preventing from happening, they're not just keeping the corpse pretty for priam to pick up later.
If I'm being honest, I didn't expect any good news to come of several votes today, but there are a few things to cling to as things continue to escalate on all fronts. A War Powers Resolution votes passed the Senate thanks to 5 Republican Senators defecting and voting in favor of it, and Democrats holding strong and voting unanimously. Thanks to unanimous Democratic votes and 15 Republicans crossing party lines, a vote to extend ACA subsidies for another three years have passed the House. Despite major opposition from House leadership and the White House rewriting history on the 5 year anniversary of the January 6 coup, a majority vote forced the raising of a plaque that celebrated the law enforcement involvement in protecting congresspeople from the coup. Additionally, Trump's vehement response to the 5 Senators who voted against him in the War Powers Resolution vote has led to several other Republicans saying they will vote in favor of further measures to constrain Trump's power over the military
Republicans dealt the president a series of rebukes Thursday that cast fresh doubt about his sway on Capitol Hill.
I admittedly don't have the energy to write specific scripts for this, but it may be worth contacting your legislators to either thank them or condemn them depending on their stances in these situations. I will provide tools to identify who voted in which way on different matters mentioned here, if anyone wishes to make such calls
It's important to celebrate victories where we can while keeping focused on the work we have to do. Especially when things happen all at once like the last week or so. Hang in there, y'all
Republicans who voted in favor of the War Powers Resolution:
Rand Paul of Kentucky
Lisa Murkowski of Alaska
Susan Collins of Maine
Josh Halwey of Missouri
Todd Young of Indiana
ACA Vote:
In a rare GOP split, the House voted 230-196 to extend Affordable Care Act subsidies, with 17 Republicans joining Democrats. The bill now mo
The vote to erect the January 6th plaque was unanimous in the Senate
Posted January 8th, 2026
Some welcome good news, but I think it's worth noting that the extension of the ACA subsidies will only take effect if it also passes the senate as well. US citizens, here is your sign to call your senators and bug them about it. 5calls.org script is available here, as well as a tool to look up your senators' numbers!

I've been fascinated for some time by what makes people susceptible to believing that ChatGPT is superior to their own thoughts.
I found this blog post about how ChatGPT can "enhance" journaling. The blog post itself was "co-written" by ChatGPT, and you can tell.
This is one of the most godawful pieces of writing I've ever run across in the wild; incredibly repetitive, rewording the same sentences over and over again and stacking them into interminable paragraphs of empty sludge. There is one "idea" in here, "I tell ChatGPT to ask me questions to help me reflect on myself, and I think that helps me to journal and think in new perspectives," and it is repeated in slightly different words like 50 times.
Expose a copy of Strunk & White's The Elements of Style to this slop and it'll start oozing blood from the pages like in a horror movie.
But the thing is, this guy wasn't always that bad of a writer. You see, I got to that blog post after reading this blog post from 4 years prior, which is about meditation and the difficulty in defining meditation in a way that can be operationalized for objective study, and it is much clearer, more structured, and actually contains ideas in it.
ChatGPT clearly made this guy's writing much, much worse, but he appears to believe that the opposite happened.
His problem isn't "being a bad writer," in fact, he didn't even write the whole thing, ChatGPT did some of it. His problem isn't exactly "inability to evaluate his own writing" either. You see, evaluating your own writing is about asking whether you communicated your ideas in the most effective way possible. This blog post certainly failed, because it argues that you should involve ChatGPT in your writing process while demonstrating very clearly that you should NOT do that. But that is deeper than failing to communicate effectively; that's failing to understand what ideas you have, why you have those ideas, and whether the ideas made it into the writing at all. Possibly, it's a failure to understand if you have ideas.
Is the problem the simple fact that he uses ChatGPT to help him come up with ideas? Potentially. ChatGPT does not contain ideas, it creates statistically plausible writing based upon a large body of data on how writing is constructed. If a person is or becomes susceptible to seeing "ideas" in ChatGPT's outputs, they might begin to have difficulty distinguishing between meaningful and non-meaningful writing. That is, they could lose the ability to tell what makes writing meaningful (as opposed to just technically formed into the shape of an idea)
But is everyone susceptible to that? What makes someone susceptible? Would someone have to have a weak sense of their own thoughts and ideas, or could a strong, accomplished writer that is skilled in expressing themselves fall apart with too much ChatGPT usage?
I don't know. Really interesting case study nonetheless.
We’d probably need a study on it. I do remember on here the posts that say no one is immune to propaganda.
There are news articles about how ChatGPT encourages delusions of grandeur and feeds egos in an unhealthy fashion. It’s possible that ChatGPT fed this guy’s ego. There’s another options
Having used Jasper in a work setting two years ago (because my coworker and I were having to write a hundred articles a month each, our boss told us to use Jasper, and our clients were dissatisfied with everything else) it does feel like producing garbage. We were desperate. I’m so glad to not be in that position anymore.
Maybe this guy started using ChatGPT a little for deadlines, and it took over. Now he’s addicted to it and how it makes his life “easier”.
Yea, I lean towards the conclusion that it will cause negative consequences for anybody.
If ChatGPT can cause people who are otherwise psychologically "normal" to lose the distinction between real and not-real, it's not hard to believe that any writer can lose the distinction between good writing and bad writing.
That being said, I think the reason that ChatGPT has its nails so embedded in so many people is that it sounds like a person and everybody is lonely. Humans are susceptible to attributing feelings and human attributes to non-living, non-thinking things. As it was once said, "humans will pack bond with anything."
Our social nature, and our ability of sophisticated communication, are some of our most distinct traits as a species, so I think we are just really, really vulnerable to something that appears to communicate like a person does.
One of the emergent effects from its development is that it uses a lot of the same cold reading tricks as con artists do:
The new era of tech seems to be built on superstitious behaviour

I’ve been in the middle of the ocean at night and now live in texas and it is so hard to explain to people that no, they have not ever seen the night sky. It is so hard to explain to people that what they think is a proper night sky is fucking pathetic. A disgrace.
People talk about how you can’t see stars in the city and yeah, that’s true, but their concept of “seeing stars” is being able to make out orion’s belt.
So, so few people have see the sky in all its glory and it’s not sad. It’s a fucking crime. Seeing a perfectly dark night, no clouds, not a hint of light pollution? That’s a fucking religious experience.
The sky the vast vast majority of us grew up with is not the sky that inspired us to look up. It is not the sky that inspired constellations. You can’t even see most constellations.
Your ancestors looked at the night sky and said “surely, that is where the gods must live.” And you might be lucky if you can see hardly more than a handful of stars.
The sky is full, fucking FULL, of stars, and you’ve never seen them.
I remember the first time I saw a properly dark sky and was like ‘oh that’s why it’s called the milky way’ and promptly started to cry
When we were on a field trip to the middle of the red sea, I remember us all crowding at the end of the boat that didn’t have lights and just lying on our backs and staring
When you see a properly dark starscape
You understand why people wrote poems and made up legends and built rockets and said heaven’s in the sky
The universe is infinite. So are the stars
I’m trying to find a picture on google images to show you what I mean and I can’t find any
You think of the night sky like fairy lights on black velvet, but it’s not it’s not it’s like, like, dust in sunlight, like - I can’t find the words.
The stars are everywhere, like sugar, like glitter, like dust. You can’t find the constellations at first, not because you can’t recognise them, but because there’s so many stars you can’t pick out the familiar line of Orion’s belt. The North star has gone from bright familiarity to almost vanishing among a thousand, a hundred thousand, a million other lights. The milky way is a line of light arcing across the sky like a moon-trail on water only infinitely, infinitely bigger.
And for the first time in your life you’ll understand why people call it a dome, because it is, it’s three dimensional in exactly the way a city skyscape isn’t.
You’ll understand why Luthien Tinúviel danced under starlight, not moonlight, why people in a time before we knew the earth was round still looked up and wondered and built telescopes and dreamed about the stars.
The stars are endless and ancient and infinite and you will stand with your head craned back and your rucksack forgotten at your feet and you’ll feel like you’re falling upwards into that great bright sky like it’s calling you home and you’ll wonder how you ever thought the stars were beautiful before tonight when all you’d ever seen were the naked empty skyscapes of your home. And you’ll cry and you’ll spend the rest of your time there gazing up and wondering and imagining what it would be like to stand among those bright silver flecks
And then you’ll come home, and look up, and fall in a different kind of love with that handful of blazing stars to stubborn to be outdone by the whole of human invention, leading you home despite the light pollution and the clouds and the endless bustle of this shrinking planet.
this is not a shot from a space telescope overlayed behind a woods, or anything. that’s not the sky as kepler or hubble or james webb see it. that’s the sky from a dark sky park in michigan. that’s the view you are missing out on from right here on earth. that’s the view that has been stolen from you.
I fell in love with the sky as a child growing up in western Minnesota, miles from a small town, near a massive lake and just downhill from an 18-hole golf course - the pure darkness broken only by a single bright light I could escape by hauling my telescope up that hill or into a nearby field
I’d often set an alarm to wake me in the middle of the night, so it was as dark as possible and my eyes as dark-adapted as they coud get, and starlight alone was enough to guide me
that’s what’s been taken from us all
OH OKAY so actually im fully ugly crying snotty-sobbing about this. what
this post was inflicted upon me so now i’m inflicting it on all of you

God I'm sorry I didn't mean to leave pre-crime all over the place oh this is gross
They Left MAGA Steve Vilchez Chicago Read His Story Erica Roach New York Read Her Story Justin Yu California Read His Story Deanna Raper Nor
This is an interesting thing. Looks like testimonies of people who left the MAGA movement- how they got into it and why.
Leaving a cult is really hard, so I really respect the people who are speaking from this place.
Yes, actually.
Look, I know people want to react to the 'leopards eating faces party' with a big fat 'told you so,' but these are ex-cultists who are reaching out to people who may need an exit with a soft landing.
People who are deeply in a cult are afraid to leave it and MAGA is no exception! There's a fear that once you leave, you won't be accepted by anyone, so they stay even if they no longer believe in their rhetoric.
A very intelligent person can fall for a cult if they feel that it can offer them something they're missing. The outside world is perilous and you can be safe here. Your friends will reject you now that you've joined us, but we will accept you. Decisions are hard, we can make them for you. The secular world has broken you, we can give you new life through christ.
If you read some of the testimonies (and so many of them are young people) you'll see how much of it is 'I didn't see it, it took someone I love to show it to me, I can't unsee it now.' We've all done things we regret. Some regrets are bigger than others. I would rather forgive them and allow them to do good work than berate them for a decision they made when compromised by anxiety.
If you want to punish them, that's up to you.
But yeah. I think we should cheer for them.
This is going around Facebook right now
And it's 100% the sentiment that needs to be cultivated. If you want MAGA to go away or be diminished, then you have to give people grace when they leave. Not only that, but you literally have to make it as easy as possible, or all you're doing is cutting off your nose to spite your face.
This is very important - especially for the very black & white / all or nothing mentality that is always all over tumblr
People can change- we actually want them to change and wake up to what they were in the middle of. Don’t punish the actions & choices that you want to see from people.
You know how as a teen when you finally left your room & your parents made some comment about finally leaving your cave. Or now you decided to finally join us. And you felt rejected, angry, defiant & probably decided to spend even less time with them in the future? That’s the kind of thing you want to avoid inflicting on those who left that cult.
It’s very difficult to come face to face with something you did- that was harmful and take ownership of that.
If this triggers you a lot- you might want to collect some resources for leaving maga or cults. So if some family member or old friends comes to you for guidance or support- you don’t accidentally shame them back into the cult they tried to leave.
You don’t have to be the one who helps explain or educate people if it’s too difficult for you. But at the very least have some resources ready.
