Randall Munroe's comic has the power to make you laugh, to make you think ... and sometimes to make you cry. For the right reasons.

Wishing another fifteen (and many more) to Randall Munroe, his wife (name unknown but it's not Megan), and everyone else.

We have a very cool phraseologism in Polish: napisać/zapisać kredą w kominie. The literal translation is: to write with a chalk in a chimney. And the meaning is to emphasise that something rare and extraordinary has happened. For example:

"She has agreed with me. I'll write with a chalk in a chimney."

So, please write with a chalk in a chimney, that I have cleaned the bathroom.

Please note, this sentence also contains a bit of autoirony, but that's another story.

Unexpected events and prosocial behavior: the Batman effect - npj Mental Health Research

Prosocial behavior, the act of helping others, is essential to social life, yet spontaneous environmental triggers for such behavior remain underexplored. This study tested whether an unexpected event, such as the presence of a person dressed as Batman, could increase prosocial behavior by disrupting routine and enhancing attention to the present moment. We conducted a quasi-experimental field study on the Milan metro, observing 138 rides. In the control condition, a female experimenter, appearing pregnant, boarded the train with an observer. In the experimental condition, an additional experimenter dressed as Batman entered from another door. Passengers were significantly more likely to offer their seat when Batman was present (67.21% vs. 37.66%, OR = 3.393, p < 0.001). Notably, 44% of those who offered their seat in the experimental condition reported not seeing Batman. These findings suggest that unexpected events can promote prosociality, even without conscious awareness, with implications for encouraging kindness in public settings. Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov n° NCT06481748; registered on July 1, 2024.

There are already enough data leaks, and now they want your government issued ID just to use ChatGPT app. The old web was free, right? You could visit any website. Now just four apps control everything and what you see, and they won't work unless you provide identification. What a mess.

ChatGPT has start issuing mandatory Age Verification reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/

Whatever you do, do not provide your ID to the worst company out there. Added screenshot in case post gets deleted.

Reddit post title: ChatGPT has start issuing mandatory Age Verification Post text read as follows: PSA for people who use ChatGPT for whatever reason, they now demand ID verification if you want to access any content that might be remotely adult. This is the message being sent to emails: Because your account shows you're under 18, we've adjusted a few settings to create a safer experience for you. Most of your ChatGPT experience will stay the same, though some sensitive topics and interactions may be limited. If you're 18 or older, you can verify your age to access all ChatGPT features. You'll just need to upload a photo of your government-issued ID and take a quick selfie—handled securely by our trusted verification partner, Persona. Some users complained they lost access to their accounts after they failed to provide an acceptable ID, just like Facebook does. Accounts will also be blocked after 90 days if failed to comply.

Hard to separate this iteration of fascism/authoritarianism from Big Tech. Big Tech has funded it; Big Tech's guiding ethos "move fast and break things" and "overconfidence in technocracy" informs how it governs; Big Tech's constant rent-seeking took over the federal government.

"우크라이나, 미국과 잠재적으로 평화 협정에 동의"

최진우 기자 · 미국 방송사인 ABC는 25일(현지시간) "우크라이나 대표단이 잠재적 평화협정의 조건에 대해 미국과 합의했다"고 보도했다.미 관료는 ABC에 "우크라이나는 그 평화협정에 동의했다"면서 "정리해야 할 세부 사항이 약간 있지만, 그들은 평화협정에 동의했다"고 전했다.댄 드리스콜 미 육군 장관은 지난 주말 스위스 제네바에서 우크라이나 대표단과 논의를 했고, 전날부터는 아랍에미리트(UAE) 아부다비에서 러시아 대표단과 비밀 회담을 가진 것으로 알려졌다.ABC는 "러시아 대표단과 비공개 논의는, 주말 미국과 우크라이나 간 제네바에서 열린

Hey look, a dog!
Now that I have your attention….

Remember that genocide we were all protesting and acting on? It’s still ongoing. There’s still barely any aid entering Gaza. There is still bombing and killing with entire families being wiped out. There are still no medical supplies. People are living in freezing cold tents.

Your $10 or more helps provide food and pay for housing, including for a new mom and her baby.
