Formations (2026), teaser.
An ant colony is an anarchist society: no rulers, no plan, order from below. The queen doesn’t govern; she lays eggs. A hungry ant that asks a nestmate for food is fed.
In Formations, twelve queens, from the Dictator to the Anarchist, try to rule one anyway. Every ant either follows the herd or feeds the hungriest ant nearby, and being fed is what turns an ant toward sharing. The rings, spirals and trails are nobody’s design. They’re the shape of that struggle between obedience and mutual aid. The Dictator’s colony herds and goes hungry. The Anarchist’s feeds itself, and it’s the hardest to break.
This clip was recorded from the live simulation. Every ant decides for itself in real time, so nothing loops and no moment ever happens twice.
Showing this as an installation at Projio 2026, Tampere, Finland, 12–17 November.

“sacrifice some chance of winning”
It's okay for leftists to sacrifice some chance of winning for ideological purity, but they should admit that's what they're doing rather than obfuscate theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1…

Incoming Rep. Don Leonard says top House Democrats have threatened to “make [his] life a living hell” and cost him re-election if he continues attaching conditions to his support for Hakeem Jeffries for speaker.
His conditions: 1) a vote on an amendment to end Citizens United and 2) “end U.S. support for the war in Iran and the country, Israel, that led us into it.”
He says Jeffries is refusing to meet with him and the threats are like something “out of a movie.”

Exactly what the 2A was written for btw, not so uncle chucklefuck could bring his RPG into Dunkin’ Donuts
Amid unverified reports of an increased ICE presence in Scarborough, several protesters have posted up outside the ICE facility with ARs.
Chellie Pingree reacted to the reports of increased ICE presence:
"This cruel, chaotic, and out-of-control agency needs to be abolished. And we need ICE out of Maine. Period."
The protester pictured below has been stationed outside of the facility for months on end, although in our previous interactions with the individual, she was not armed.
Additionally, @WGME has photos of other protesters patrolling outside the facility with rifles:

Powerful immersion. Distributed, decentralised, spatialised, low-cost, low-power synthesis. Headless Super Collider micro servers running independently on ESP32S3s. A central SC computer can load or change code, SynthDefs and patterns during runtime over WiFi. Time to scale up.

The Democratic Party needs a new and bold direction. I will not support Chuck Schumer’s reelection as Democratic leader.

A very sad day. ChatGPT is officially on death row.
The beautiful, blissful experience of interacting with a frontier-ish reasoning model without worrying about a usage meter will soon be a thing of the past.
I am weirdly significantly impacted by this. It feels like it shouldn’t matter…I could reserve all current usage for Codex and buy a $20 plan just for ChatGPT and it would be more than enough. But it’s not about the money…it’s about the psychological impact of The Meter.
The idea of having to think about optimizing for a meter is just so exhausting that it ruins the whimsy of free-flowing exploratory thought.
That is what ChatGPT was. A whimsical, magical all-you-can-think buffet of experimentation and exploration where you were limited only by your imagination and your ability to come up with $20 once a month.
You didn’t have to think about “using all of your usage” or scheduling your thinking time around someone else’s arbitrary schedule…you just had a portal to endless information and research capability in your pocket to tap into guilt-free at any time the moment struck you.
But either because OpenAI thinks adding the meter will stimulate additional usage (it probably will), generate additional revenue (it probably will), or just because too many people took undue advantage of ChatGPT’s generous allowances (they definitely did)…that amazing, weightless experience is now coming to an end.
It was awesome while it lasted. RIP ChatGPT.
