Can we...just accept that we suck at this?
I want to tell you a story that has made me kinda hopeless about Twitter's ability to affect positive things happening, and it starts with this tweet from Hillary Clinton.

Thrilled to announce our new @NEJM_AI article (ai.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056…)!
Lead author @madhumitasushil worked with @TravisZack2 @vekennedy @divneetM @bmeow19 all in @UCSF_BCHSI @UCSFCancer.

Los Angeles is a city known, more than most cities in the United States, for its car culture and traffic.

This is the future.

NEW: 85 people in Arizona suffered severe burns from contact with pavements heated up to 180F (82C). 7 of them died. In total, 257 people had underlying cause of death listed as "exposure to excessive natural heat".
This is not a forecast for 50 years time, it’s happening today.

Fantasy as we know it today was created by a self-taught French artist from the 19th century.
He has influenced everybody from HP Lovecraft to George Lucas and Tim Burton to Peter Jackson.
His name? Gustave Doré...
