we're celebrating 2026 by watching a bureaucrat (complimentary) take power

what a year. a terrible time and place where a lot of people decided to use their time and energy to figure out unfucking things up by working together. it's beautiful and i am so grateful to have so many wonderful people to do the work alongside.

pour one out

any discussion of city transit improvement online ever

a computer can never be held accountable therefore the humans who have made management decisions must be

pretty sure she avoided infection thru sheer force of will, a stubborn curmudgeon on the cellular level

the culinary world is indebted to the brassica family tree, bless that beautiful mustard plant and all that we've done to it since

THEY'RE TURNING THE COPS FROGS!!!

Frozen world 🌀🌲✨ #WhimsyWednesday

The nuance here is that the IRT Company went bankrupt, and its subway lines survived because the city took them over under the leadership of the socialist Fiorello LaGuardia.

RIP 2025 2025-2025

unstoppable force (US/UK boomer need for care labour) vs immovable object (the global g20 rage against immigrant labour)

They are losing it lol

How much money do you think the U.S. government spent trying to make an example of Garcia? It’s probably a shocking amount

my New Year’s resolution is to find a big sack of money with a dollar sign on it

This is exactly what I was trying to say (but more eloquently than I would have said it.)

Insanity. So glad i just got two 3060s from PCs a company was going to scrap so it's free, but OMG. RAM manufacturers going private + GPU prices shooting up. This is going to destroy soooooo many tech sectors all because some insecure techbros want to steal the world with "AI"

I use this to prevent overwork and track how long admin tasks actually take. I usually only last a few months with the diligence, but it sure helps my mental health to know that no, I'm not bad at it, there really is just too much to do.

Today is the last day that you can repost this image

i am losing my mind over this listing that staged a condemned philly trap house with AI

good piece with an incidental insanely brutal takedown of klein

oh no, cornflake marshmallow krispies are so easy to make, i used the last of my marshmallows to make more the other day and now i am wondering if i need to just be keeping marshmallows on deck to make more all the time

have not done the L to G in over a year and despite looking for any visible sign for the G, i walked to the wrong end of the L platform and up the stairs before seeing that i had to double back. why is signage here THIS terrible

can't wait to see how this works in concert with the "mailbox rule" for service, since the postmark could be way off from the affidavit of service. anyway, if you file your taxes by mail, get it manually stamped or metered if you can.

bless this man, a true king of kings. the multiverse trembles before his power

painting of ET getting pelted with pinecones i did a few years ago

much of fitness culture in the US was developed by people who literally entered sports and physical education instead of going to therapy and the attitudes around intensity and effort kinda reflect that. the smiling Jazzercise folks were right and your football coach / PE teacher was wrong

Sorry it had to come to this but

Amazingly, reaction times using screens while driving are worse than being drunk or high—no wonder 90 percent of drivers hate using touchscreens in cars. Finally the auto industry is coming to its senses.

We are a social species, and we have always prevailed through cooperation. Caring for our sick. Raising children we didn't sire or birth because they were part of our village or extended family. We are not breeders and predators, we are communicators and survivors. We evolved to UNITE.

Our photographer Alex Kormann captured the exact moment the presses stopped for the last time in Minneapolis, ending a 158 history of locally printed newspapers.

My usual reminder that “we’re gonna file a lawsuit” isn’t news. That’s a press release. “We filed a lawsuit and here’s the complaint” is news.

“You didn’t get a high paying job right after graduation because you got a Humanities degree instead of learning to code” Same people: “too bad, so sad, AI can do your job and no one cares about cultivating future leadership in the field.” Same people: www.yahoo.com/news/article...

Stuff like this is low-key one of the most brain scorching things about parenting right now

deadass?

liberals seem a lot more bothered by the chomsky-epstein connection than leftists. looking at an account posting a music video about it in reply to every socialist comedian and podcast they can find, while every commie i know is like "that sucks, we'll just do it without him though."

This gender disparity is seriously hilarious to me. There’s something about it that is very “dudes rock” and “how did men even survive” at the same time.

Omg omg omg omg omg

editing an ep of @illconceivedpodcast.com, which has two hosts and comes from 120-150 minutes of raw audio, takes me about 6-8 hours depending on the episode. editing an ep of @worstpossible.world, which has three hosts and rolls for 3+ hours, takes @spocksbrian.worstpossible.world 8-12 hours

A cat is a form of furred nautilus

That time of year again!

Going to one (1) literary convention and expecting to "break in" to a pretty crowded genre - I guess that is a fantasy of a sort

Our ballistic missile defense system, however, is stabilizing and good!

dustin called ridgewood a retirement village for millennials and i can't stop thinking about it 🥲

too bad lol
