It’s hard to describe how on the nose this is for me.

not trying to write a thinkpiece or anything, but this is basically all I did all four years of college—read a book per week in each history or lit class (so, for me, that often meant 4-5 books/week), participate in a 2- or 3-hour seminar once a week, and write longass research papers on my own time

Gritty will fuck them up.

I can't stop grinning. I think my heart grew three sizes while watching this.

Sometimes I read an article just to see how Trump is being covered. This one did not disappoint. "There are only so many turns of phrase you can employ: this is just a profoundly fucked-up way to lead a country." www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

We got a slow start the second time around, but I think we're making up for it now. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/second-no-...

I'm in Raleigh, NC for a few days settling up affairs for my recently deceased mother-in-law. She gets a print subscription to the News & Observer. One syndicated NO KINGS story on page two (less than 1 column of ink). What a joke. I will take a large amount of joy cancelling her subscription.

Bless their hearts.

I’m pretty sure this is the plot from The Diary of Anne Frank.

I'm honestly trying to decide if irony is dead or if somebody in the Texas National Guard is hard trolling Hegseth.

Good for her (I’m assuming her anyway). Also why the fuck would “marriage material” ever be some kind of judgement measure?

The essential failure of LLMs in the smart home - where natural language processing should shine - is the best evidence that LLMs as a technology simply may not be able to do the things they’re promised www.theverge.com/report/78717...

Mass shootings in the US have become so commonplace that they just get bundled together into one news story now. I wonder if that means the Onion will publish its "nothing can be done says only country in the world with this problem" story once or three times. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

This seems like an odd strategy. You still have a cunt boss, but now they are bitter and have tons of time on their hands to make your work life miserable. Maybe reporting them to someone else in HR would have gotten them fired and out of your hair.

Schumer and Jeffries are so bad at their jobs that they’re losing a popularity contest to a bunch of domestic terrorist pedophiles.

I feel like this person is doing one of those wrong.

This is extremely dangerous to our democracy.

As CNN offers daylong saturation coverage of the podcaster’s funeral, I went back and checked to see how CNN covered Melissa Hortman’s memorial on 6/28, where Walz spoke and Biden/Harris attended. It got about four minutes during the hours it was happening—less than Jeff Bezos’s wedding that day.

The T-shirt shop is now open to everyone! 👕🐾 😸 purrinink.dashery.com 🐈‍⬛🤍

This is The Way.

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption. Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow. People have power. Ask Target

I was reliably told celebrating political violence was cause for government reprisal and private sector termination.

My Disney+ annual is up near the end of November. I went ahead and cancelled and let them know since they cancelled Kimmel I was cancelling them. #boycottDisney

Any Democrat Who Will Resist 2026. (I will vote for anyone who primaries either of my useless VA senators)

Got these back to back. This is why if you don’t cite sources i can read that I believe you are just making shit up.

I do not condone murder in any way, but I will not sugar coat Charlie Kirk's life. He was a racist, homophobe, transphobe, sexist who constantly sought to silence speech he didn't like. I say this not because it's a new thing to say but to assert my right to say it.

Virginia clarified that you can get the COVID vaccine without a prescription, so we hustled to get one before that other advisory group full of vaccine deniers meets next week. Got the flu vaccine too. Hard to say if we’ll ever be able to do that again.

Just some #YAMLProblems... 😅 Happy Programmer's Day, y'all! 🩵

I wrote my own Charlie Kirk obituary, and about valuing truth over manners: www.thenation.com/article/poli...

This. Times a thousand. Again and again.

This is reason 4,329,345 that I will never vote for Gavin Newsom for President. I will vote for anyone else in a primary, and if Dems are dumb enough to make him the candidate, I will vote for no-one. Preemptive warning that I will mute/block anyone saying I should vote Blue No Matter What.

This is a strong contender for AITA (Am I the Asshole) of the year.

Then let him run. Let Burchett run away down the hall like a coward and Raju shout the question at them. What good is asking safe questions of powerful people in order to maintain access just to keep asking safe questions? Stop holding reporters who should know better to such low standards.

Vaccines are battle training for your immune system. If you could give it intel on the enemy, why would you withhold that? Give me ALL the vaccines! I want to be prepared for everything!

The technical issue is that they are collaborators.

Exactly. You can always tell who has—or craves—proximity to power by the way they rush to adopt the latest overhyped, over-funded technology.

This is phenomenal messaging. Hello Democrats? Knock knock, anybody home?

The “eating your wife” jokes practically write themselves.

Gliding in for a landing

I mean except for the blatant disregard for their privacy and personal space as well as a violation of their trust, sure. “Better partner.”

A perfect mashup doesn’t exi

Sokath, his eyes uncovered!

That's it. I'm never going to either of the stores... <puts ear to mic> I'm sorry, I'm being told neither of these stores exist within 1,000 miles of me but that there is still a sign on an abandoned building at the strip mall down the street.
