What if I told you these were 2 separate guys

We’ve been separated for eleven months! You got your pilot’s license, I met someone else. Let’s just be civil, at least for the kids.

Spending Yom Kippur reading Refaat Alareer:

Hamza and tens of thousands will never get to go back to the house where they lived their happiest days with the most loving person they will ever know.

Raneem will have to live with the horrible memories of seeing her house become a pile of rubble.

The likes of my niece Raneem and little nephew Mohammed are purposefully being punished by Israel and the international community-first by destroying their houses and lives, and then by providing Israel with the impunity and excuses it wants, and finally by delaying the process of justice. They want these little kids to live in ruins and destruction.

Ironically, Palestinian children are expected to grow up and like Israel or see a future where peace can be achieved when the murderers of their parents and destroyers of their houses go unpunished and unaccountable.

Unless Israeli war criminals are brought to justice and the occupation ends, my fear is that these children will grow up feeling that they were betrayed by the world. We owe it to them to change that vision.

Business people love turning verbs into nouns when they need to sound like experts about something they don’t understand

In retrospect it probably wasn’t a good idea to build economy around a company that looks like this

I love how misleading and dull this obvious LLM caption makes one of the greatest movies of all time sound. LLMs rob art of all its freneticism.

I have decided to occasionally write essays about things I like, why I like them, and what they mean to me. It is called Stuff I Like There on Substack. The first post is about the video game Disco Elysium. Enjoy. matthewbriancohen.substack.com/p/true-love-...

Just downloaded Now and Then. Incredible that the Beatles made something like this. Looks and sounds nothing like their previous work. Why didn’t they use Rosie O’Donnell sooner? Nevertheless, a masterpiece.
