In an age where Republicans embrace jingoistic, fascist ideologies, it's helpful to remember there are still conservatives with naive understandings of socioeconomic problems happy to support a kleptocracy because it's totally going to start fixing things soon! God bless. tinyurl.com/2mc4c2sx

If I were an editor, my questions for this Contributing Opinion Writer Who Is a Senior Fellow At a Right Wing Think Tank would have included: 1. What party is Zohran Mamdani a member of 2. What party just nominated him to be its candidate for mayor of New York 3. What are you talking about

Under Dr. Oz, Medicare is launching a pilot program that will use AI to determine whether patients would be covered for certain procedures. Companies running the program will be paid a share of the savings from rejecting claims. Who in their right mind voted for this? No one.

My EuroPython keynote is debuting on YouTube in a couple of days for anyone who missed it IRL in July. I'm really proud of this talk and am so honoured to have given it. Hope you like it! www.youtube.com/watch?v=WGXX...

Oh no I really hope Bill Clinton isn’t in the Epstein files, I’ll have to get rid of my Bill Clinton hat and my Bill Clinton sneakers and my Bill Clinton cologne and my Bill Clinton watch and take down my Bill Clinton flag and I’ll have to delete my Bill Clinton nft trading cards

I’ve been painting so much this Summer. Here are two moon studies: “Deux Lunes”.

“Ava applied the tacky mixture of cornstarch and red food dye to my face, let it drip down my chin, and I was placed in the path of oncoming traffic.” Excerpt from “Granger, NY,” by Sophia Ross. It appears in the Summer 2025 collection of Online Exclusives. buff.ly/X2j9Gd8 #writingcommunity

The way Grok is referring to itself as MechaHitler demonstrates how AI will eliminate so many entry-level Nazi jobs.

Exclusive: A neo-Nazi has sent us footage of Zohran Mamdani playing air guitar at his high-school prom.

Renaming all my `scripts/` directories to `tools/` and having Claude run them for me is how I embrace the future.

The best Astro websites of 2025 (so far). A thread of standout design, performance, and creativity built with @astro.build 🧵

Brilliant assholes don’t exist because brilliance is a property of a collective group of people and nobody wants to work with assholes. Brilliant asshole is just another phrase for “walking liability that damages everything they touch” Ain’t nothing brilliant about that

I know Google is doing some great AI stuff, but I am repeatedly astounded at how bad their integration into Docs is.

Forcing everyone to learn set theory is a categorical imperative.

Needless to say, that is not a crime - except in the mind of a fascist

It's a great day to be a fan of Brian Eno and Sabrina Carpenter.

very fun to read frederick douglass accurately describe the problem with the pardon power in 1867

They're literally doing the meme

Jira is so fun! Sometimes you have to click "save" to confirm something. Sometimes you don't. There's no real logic to which is which and if there is a save button, it's going to be in a weird place.

That's the lesson huh

i think it should be a bigger story that the president held a meeting with a foreign head of state where he ranted about the most gutter white supremacist propaganda you can find on the internet

Two Doll Trump

I despise Trump, but I do think “Everything’s Computer” would be a great tech podcast name.

From a comrade: "Ford makes a final pitch to Conservative voters"

Yall wanna hear something extremely embarrassing? Before Trump’s election, a bunch of academics who lumbered rightward after being criticized by the left (Pinker, Dawkins, Krauss) wrote essays for a book that is coming out in July about the threats to academia from the left. YALL, THE TITLE!!

Welsh folklore tells of Corgis carrying fairies on their backs through the forest. We discovered a fairy garden on our walk the other day and Winona knew exactly what to do.

ThomasCon will have every attendee select their favorite educational YouTube video and we watch them like a film festival.

Welp, got an answer to this question: Apparently the answer is no tariffs are being collected. Trump broke the system www.cnbc.com/2025/04/11/c...

@michaelhobbes.bsky.social has done some really good work educating people about hrt and how dishonest the anti-trans moral panic has been. The MSM has done a really shitty job of this, but I learned a lot from his podcast episodes on the topic. Here is one: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/r...

I just cannot imagine being this dense.

Please don't feign interest with me because I will show you 6 hours of my favorite YouTube videos if given the opportunity. Hey, and have you heard about this podcast? Also, here is my Factorio factory and - wait, where are you going?

This seems like a good time to remind folks of what Hannah Arendt once wrote:

trump believes he is the boss of america and that it is our duty as his subjects to show him endless respect and deference. anything less than groveling is to be punished by the state.
