“I never see you at the gym.” Oh? I never see you upon the loom.

Always love a chance to repost Twain's words on the subject.

The way to defeat this technology is simple. Anyone wearing Ray Bans gets their ass beat. in six months they will stop production

I'm constantly trying (/failing) to get this point across. If you're a trained expert in a field, then it may be worthwhile to question the scientific consensus of your peers. If you're not, the scientific consensus is absolutely the best you can do and it's arbitrary foolishness to disregard it.

People who go on one social network to complain about it and justify why they are on another social network have an unhealthy relationship with and possibly addiction to social media. I pity them

adding a second trepan hole to get a cross breeze going

"Roughly 61 percent of paint-only bike paths in America are considered 'high stress' corridors, meaning they're sited on the kind of fast, multi-lane arterials" Also, interesting to see that speed limits were missing from 52% of lane miles examined High speed limits are a challenge to safe streets

The floor plan for the planned ICE concentration camp in Social Circle, Georgia:

This is the most incredible footage of blue whales I’ve ever seen

Happy birthday to this young man, and really to us all

This is a huge deal, and the number of people I see pooh-poohing this as just a loss to a supposedly elite group sucks. A) most of the jobs that disappeared were the working-class ones; B) bye bye not just to local coverage but to arts, sports, everything that’s not tech/biz/politics/opinion/advice

It's so cool that the fbi is basically the make a wish foundation for one podcaster

Or the state bombs the neighborhood

Kurt Vonnegut stop being so applicable to all time periods of American life, you can’t do that Kurt Vonnegut, your insights are too evergreen Kurt Vonnegut

it's called biathlon because it spends a lot more time skiing than shooting and is ultimately, when pushed, gonna settle down with skiing

I keep telling folks that the notable increase in tech problems we've experienced over the last year-ish is definitely the accumulated effects of AI coding errors. We can definitely feel it in retail e-commerce.

we must never cede our right to Dream

We need niacin, we don’t make it endogenously, you get dementia and die if you don’t get it. Its added to staple foods to make the nutrient available widely, making them “enriched” or “processed.” Preparing food made our brains bigger and our bodies taller. But people with brain worms say otherwise

Part of the context here is that Bucks County recently elected an anti-ICE sheriff to replace their pro-ICE sheriff. The actions of Quakertown police (which is separate) are best understood as a gang that sees its power to intimidate slipping and so has initiated a violent suppression campaign.

Now THAT's a headline. "The U.S. spent $30 billion to ditch textbooks for laptops and tablets: The result is the first generation less cognitively capable than their parents" fortune.com/2026/02/21/l...

If you’re not actively seeking vengeance, start.

europe loves an environmentalist feminist political group called Génération Filles backed by Situationalist auteur Jacques-Henri Molesteur and animal rights activist Edith Petain and then it turns out they are Nazis

Katyal: "I was able to go to court - the son of immigrants – and say on behalf of Nestle Corporation, 'Hey, those kids don't have any right to sue an American company for enslaving them"

another technology the left is excited about

Just so I understand this right: The AI companies are buying up all the chips so that they can generate enough AI compute power to stuff it into all of our new phones, computers, and devices, but because they bought so many chips, there will be no more new phones, computers or devices.

By vermin, she means sea lions.

i still dont understand why they show up for this stuff. why ask a question if youre going to just get lies. if you stop pointing a camera at this stuff these attention hounds will chase you around the block. you can just report on them without doing in person stenography

I hate to say it gang but you guys have to stop vaping

(sea monster bio) You've probably seen my writhing in The Atlantic

Great moments in Dudes Rock history

This is modern luddism. Flock, a $7.5 bn tech company, is encroaching into communities against their will, and elected bodies are refusing to respond to civil and democratically voiced concerns. So citizens are taking matters into their own hands. It's a moral choice, and one that takes courage.

In many ways Indigo is truly the John Carroll Lynch of the visible spectrum

hahaha seriously though we should charge these people as child sex traffickers

“The U.S. no longer has emission standards of any meaning,” said Margo T. Oge, who served as the E.P.A.’s top vehicle emissions regulator under three presidents and has since advised both automakers and environmental groups… “Nothing. Zero,” she added. “Not many countries have zero.”

Action Bronson bar

The anchors in the NBC Olympics studio explaining they have to delay the slalom. Carmen Sandiago stole the freaking mountain. "Very little retail value" and "because she can" are phrases that are repeated. Footage of an athlete standing by a big hole, hands on hips. Frustration written on their face

I urge you to listen to this with the sound on because this is literally what his attorney whispered to him
