For the cover of the April 13, 2026, Future Issue, the artist Christoph Niemann depicted an army of machines filling the horizon, one of whom cradles a human in its hand; that person is happily reaching toward a screen. “A.I. seems to evoke doom,” Niemann said. “Not surprising since the dominant narrative has been that A.I. is mainly good money for investors and a good excuse to fire employees.”
HEYYYYY BROSK!!!! It is completely 100% egg salad to be here. What's happened recently: We went to the airport in Newark to get a plane to the Netherlands, to stay with friends. While in the Netherlands we ate food, breathed air, and went on mom-mandated walks which were completely unnecessary. Then we took a train to Paris. Our Uber driver that took us to our kind-of-shitty-but-good-at-hiding-it hotel, had totes good vibes. The hotel lobby was high-key good vibes. We saw some stuff, ate some stuff, and did other stuff in Paris (like we went to this crepe place right? and the waiter was so fire). Then we took a train BACK to the Netherlands, and there was some delays which i low-key did not enjoy. We arrived before dinnertime, and we acted like to cool cats we totally are - except the grownups who are high-key lame. We were then told we would be woken up at 5:30 AM to go to the airport, and let me tell you, i did NOT vibe with this decision ('cause early morning are SUPER cheugy), but i was like "bet", right? (No cap, i swear). And then we WERE, and honestly, i wish i could never do that again. and then we left and got on a plane and went to the newark airport, and honestly i was surprised by how nice it was because i do not vibe with jersey on any level. so much negative energy yk? and then we got a car home.
