In nyc you have to be more vigilant about your 5 year old having AI programs in their class than your 16 year old I swear (I could be wrong but the former is VERY true)

And then parenting small kids who are on the front lines of AI on top of it!!! It is so much.

Remember when teachers spent the majority of their time planning lessons, grading, and thinking about new units for their students? Now we have ICE protocols, AI protocols, lockdown trainings, & we have had to become experts very quickly in taking care of young people who are suffering from trauma.

I feel like in my lifetime I keep *wanting* to be a teacher and then something so horrifying emerges and teachers are on the front line of it and I’m just like oh no … I can’t be that brave. It’s messed up.

RFK Jr. backs down all the time when he gets push back, so if anyone wants to call, here's the HHS number 1-877-696-6775.
I'd also call your senators/reps as well.

Society didn’t reject it, a small majority of voters did because they vote on very little information. Society would like a cure for cancer; billionaires however have other ideas.

Ok it’s very funny that Zohran’s β€œit’s m-a-m-d-a-n-I” riff in the debate, which was great but he clearly backed down from β€œlearn how to say it cuz I’m your next mayor” … he could’ve said it! He is!

I wrote about this a bit in my last book but it really shakes me that a defining feature of this catastrophic era is that we just keep going to work. We work through pandemics, we work through natural disasters, we work through economic calamity, we work through coups, we work, we work, we work.
