In general, AI adoption levels are a measurement of to what extent a particular reward system (a corporation, a market, academia as a whole system) has ceased to distinguish between doing a thing and pretending to do a thing

When someone annoying unfollows me? That's the best feeling there is.

I like Pluribus a lot but I can understand why some people might not like it. It's because they're bad people with awful taste in television

How much worse can it get? Way mo’!

got my adhd upgraded to ad4k

For anyone unfamiliar, from his Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy book

Tell me you don't see it

I got up this morning eager to tell everyone how it's the final day for my game Bolted! on Kickstarter. Just so much to say about that, including sharing the long writeup I did about the game's development. But then my BURRITO INFLATED in the air fryer and sharing this is FAR MORE PRESSING

Not every problem but probably 60-70% of the problems online could be mitigated by understanding that people you don't know/don't like are still capable of kidding around.

I hope to live long enough to stupidly smoke again. 90? I’m buying Marlboros and sitting on my porch.

There is nothing funnier to me, a man in his 50s, than watching a video where a 30 year old makes fun of 20 year olds. Time is a flat circle

I came close but I'm not going to finish inking this fucking page tonight. Tomorrow I'm making a quick round trip to Ithaca, inking is gonna have to wait until tomorrow night now. This page. Ugh. I might not win this one. It might defeat me.

I am assuming that Hamnet is the updated cyber-age remake of Hamlet. Please do not correct me

Hear me out: every adult in the country takes a near fatal dose of hallucinogens at the exact same time. Then we see where we're at.

I wonder how much of it is the proximity to the Charlie Kirk assassination. Folks are still in high horse scold mode and the whiplash is jarring them and making them cranky.

I wrote about Rob Reiner's shockingly good performance in The Wolf Of Wall Street in this, but it's striking how many different films and parts Defector staffers wanted to write about. He was a mensch, but he was also just everywhere in the culture for 50 years. defector.com/defectors-fa...

will every NFL game have a moment of silence or is that only for white supremacists who were presenting a racist rationale for our unfettered gun massacre culture when shot

Went Hanukah shopping for the kids and wound up getting myself a small gift too. Best five dollars I've ever spent

I think it's important not to misunderstand what these social media platforms are. They are not public arenas where we bravely take on reactionary forces in honorable combat. They are apps that expose you to stress and thereby simulate the feeling of having done something useful

“Oh you should be online to try to provide value to your political side” fuck that that’s nerd shit you should be online because you’re unwell and need to tell people about weird animals you saw

One of my all-time favorite clips of Rob Reiner, from his Friars Club Roast in 2000, as he reads aloud Roger Ebert's infamous scathing review of his movie North. The man had an amazing sense of humor about himself. RIP.

Happy mishmash, everybody! An excerpt from Sugar Shack, available at your local bookshop, library, and wherever books are sold! (1/3)

When Rob Reiner was on his all-time epic run at the start of his career, he had an opportunity to read a script that was looking for a production partner, and he lost his mind for it. He decided Castle Rock had to have it, no matter what.

Rob Reiner made some great movies but he was also unafraid to speak the truth, and was one of the public voices who knew you don’t squander your platform, and only got louder about opposing evil fucks as he got older. Legend.

Im about to binge All In The Family because i dont know what else to do.

Very very angry at the specific person who did this. How dare you

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing. All from his movies.

I don't want to believe it. Let's hope Rob Reiner killed some other elderly couple.

The run that Rob Reiner went on between 1984 and 1992 is one of the most amazing hot streaks any director has ever had. Legendary stuff

When I am president it will be legal to hunt down and destroy any telemarketing equipment used by robocallers. You can just grab a hammer and go to town. You can write off the hammer

Today I talked with @mattielubchansky.com about her delightful new satirical dystopian graphic novel Simplicity. Also about "how it is right now." "If you admit that It's Happening, well, you kind of know what's next. And that's really terrifying." www.welcometohellworld.com/i-gotta-beli...

I just ordered my copy. Mattie's the best we've got, folks. Please support her.

doing promo is physically painful for me but i really would love it if you bought or read my newest book that came out a few months ago. i think it’s the best thing i’ve ever made and im so immensely proud of it. simplicitybook.xyz

Going to be keeping the intrusive thoughts at bay for the next year with the promise of a full Control sequel. The original is one of the best games of all time and bringing that madness out onto the streets of Manhattan, it's like they made it just for me www.youtube.com/watch?v=WhQm...
