It’s pretty interesting to compare Easter messages from political leaders and then consider which ones the media treats as being out of the mainstream or dangerous

Hunter S. Thompson ordering an Egg McMuffin at the McDonald's Drive-Thru

WTF, is this satire? Look at this fucking thing, hahahaha www.nytimes.com/2026/04/03/r...

Rewatched Margin Call (2011) last night. Incredible film for many reasons, but I especially love how it depicts corporate communication changing up and down the ranks. As we see the film's pivotal discovery conveyed up the chain of command, each summary is simpler & more succinct than the last.

Just remembered that WebTV existed.

It's time. Maybe on this run I won't abandon the save as soon as I hit Act 3.

@ryanhatesthis.bsky.social this thumbnail is cursed, I hate it so much.

lol, this is the twitter change Musk personally rolled back after just a few hours? I recall he also hastily rolled back the change that labelled accounts with their likely country of origin. It sure seems like he wants to preserve the foreign propaganda creator economy, doesn't it?

DOGE's NIH rampage last year that set cancer research back a decade or two finally makes sense to me. Those idiots think (thought?) we will soon create a magical, godlike AGI that will cure all diseases known to mankind – so why waste $ paying flawed human researchers today?

I think this is what a TACO attempt looks like in the era of the Iran "Excursion". www.nytimes.com/live/2026/03...

For about a year I've been working with some of the best reporters and editors in L.A. to build a brand new city news outlet. It launches tomorrow. Is it possible to operate a sustainable local journalism business in 2026? Let me know! lamaterial.com

Happy Birthday, me!

Last month the NYT said AOC "struggled" to give an answer on Taiwan and quoted her with "uhs" and "ums" to make her look stupid Yesterday talking about Hormuz Trump claimed he's heard from "numerous countries" and said "uh" four times. The NYT deleted the "uhs" and paraphrased him to look smarter:

Lol at Death Stranding 2 and Crimson Desert releasing on the same day. What a wild month for games.

All is right with the world.

Playing Slay the Spire 2 has me wondering why major game studios don't have skunkworks divisions comprised of a bunch of small 3-10 person teams who are paid salary + benefits and performance bonuses (e.g. revenue share and/or progressive bonuses for hitting key milestones).

Not sure why I decided to read this article start-to-finish, but I'm glad I did. The closing two paragraphs: "Looking out toward the ocean from the living room of her lifted house, Ms. Stewart marveled that on clear days she can see Catalina Island and watch ships float by in the distant waters.

Bonus lol that they're advertising it in the Falun Gong 'newspaper'. Did they run an add in Freewinds Magazine, too?

The government can legally scoop up and read Americans' emails and texts, track everywhere they go, and feed huge amounts of data into AI without court oversight. Next month, Congress will have a chance to rein it all in. I'm leading a bipartisan bill to restore real privacy.

BizDev has gone too far.

Oh boy, today is the tomorrow of yesterday.

I genuinely think you should burn the entirety of the establishment ad-based corporate press to the ground, salt the Earth where it once stood, and begin entirely anew using a taxpayer funded public media apparatus firewalled from government editorial intervention

Marathon game: being forced to watch moth pornography during matchmaking has overstayed its welcome. The first 3-5 times it was cool, and now I'm over it.

Two-parter. There is legitimately good financial content on TikTok! Just…not much of it. Anyhow this woman is correct and nails it. (Split into two parts because of the 3 min video cap on here)

This is a great profile. Does the man justice, and paints a very clear picture of the people the administration is actually targeting.

You're never going to believe this, but.. some asshole you've never heard of just said something hypocritical/bigoted/moronic on Twitter! Here's a screenshot of it, even though it's implicit that if you wanted to read shit like that, you'd be on Twitter. Now I shall explain why they are wrong...

Starting to get cautiously excited about Marathon. This video highlighting Ryan Lott's composition was a cool watch. I really hope they successfully un-fucked it from the state it was in last year.

TFW when you have no idea what's going on and you realize that makes you one of the lucky ones. Don't know; don't wanna know!

Kids can be pretty amazing.

I really miss hiking in California. Very glad I moved away, but this summer I'm resolved to go explore and find some local trails that are worth driving to.

It's easy to forget how incoherent Trump is and then you see him speak live and it's like getting hit with a ton of bricks. My 4-year-old can communicate more ideas per minute than our president can.

Fuckin' FINALLY!
