Hey, so about that #AI going to kill us all thing...while #agentic AI is mob of authorized crackers and should be stopped...it's what the war machines are doing with it that is the real concern. Have you seen #Palestine? That's what AI targeting looks like in the field. Nothing left standing. In January of this year, Pete Hegseth released a memo directing the United States to embed AI in every part of the “kill chain.” As it moves to comply, the Department of Defense is placing relatively few checks on what technology companies can or cannot do when the United States is waging war. “We’re in a situation where the companies are essentially regulating themselves,” Guyer, of the Institute for Global Affairs, said. Because letting techbros "regulate themselves" is going so very well for everyone. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2026/09/killer-ai-iran-autonomous-maven-poll-ai-safety/ #DOD #weapons #CapitalismEndBoss #WTAF

I am reading a trad-pubbed mystery that keeps talking about this "articulated skeleton" as if that's a normal decomposition process and I am so confused. The only type of articulated skeleton I've ever heard of is where the bones are held together with pins and wires to approximate where they would be in a body. I feel like an actual editor would have flagged this immediately, so maybe there's an alternate use of the word? #AmReading #WTAF #Mystery
