so you agree with me then, just as it would be bad to cause the extinction of vital scavenger species, it is bad when billionaires bankrupt journalism outfits with pretextual lawsuits funded in secret because they criticize billionaires

because it was one of the most crusading anti billionaire journalism outfits in the country. one of the first to report on Jeffrey Epstein and his ties to Trump for instance. that type of thing was the real reason it was destroyed, indeed Epstein offered to share expenses with Thiel for the lawsuit

TIL a bunch of ex-Gawker folks sold a series based on their stories to Apple and Tim Cook personally quashed it when he heard about it www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/dig...

The main question is- when will Skottie Young bring back our man Beakley for his Lobo run

"Infrasound” is becoming a real issue in data center debates. Evidence of harm is unclear—but local governments are already considering new rules. Another example of perception shaping infrastructure timelines. Go in depth with @jael.bsky.social in @heatmap.news heatmap.news/plus/the-fig...

EXCLUSIVE My big behind-the-scenes look into how Gov. Josh Shapiro has courted Amazon amid the mounting backlash to data centers Complete with internal emails, memos, an “exclusive” offer for help with faster permitting and a NDA no one would explain to me. My latest for @heatmap.news 😌

I am categorically in favor of damning any and all straits, for any reason whatsoever, at any point in time.

Here's another way to think about privilege that might help. Let's assume that the US is a video game with microtransactions. There are four types of currency: tickets, gems, coins, and experience points. There are things you need to play the game that can only be bought with these currencies,

the imperial tentacles of snl have reached across the atlantic so that we can get fresh new parody videos from 2004

I fear that the trust damage from LLM abuse will spill over into the assessment of qualitative methods in social science. Ethnographers and interviewers should not be categorically obligated to share transcripts or field notes.

I've been eating this Chocolate Vanilla ice cream all wrong, smdh. I should have been having a scoop of the ice cream and then adding a scoop of peanut butter from the start.

lol in 2019 allbirds randomly emailed me to ask me write a satirical newspaper for them. we had a zoom call and they gave me a ton of information and all this shit. then they asked me for a price and i offered $100 an hour and they never reached out to me again

Much of the media has moved on, but Israel still rains destruction on Gaza and brutally limits access to food, water, and medicine. Please give what you can to help my friend Sama'a keep her family safe and warm. chuffed.org/project/157569

Trump’s career is an affirmation of the effectiveness of lying in politics. The ubiquity of lying is also why the public generally despises politics. Public cynicism often makes it even easier for politicians to lie without consequences. This quandary is not easy to solve.

Glad to see the pot aroma company is branching out from their usual products, "green military surplus coat" and "friends garage"

Possibly one of the most inexplicable memes to ever emerge. This truly is one of the strangest two minutes and forty-four seconds in history.

This is just millennial culture. Millennials love paying rent

Jack Skellington was in an 80's band and sang 'Weird Science'

It's just such a bait and switch because they want you to think it's driver's license like for drinking but the actual bill says you need passport or birth certificate.

And yet so many people's first instinct is to say: yeah I have yo show ID for all kinds of things; why shouldn't it be that way for voting?

The “controversy” section of Wong Kar Wai’s Wikipedia page is fucking wild. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wong_Ka...

They already did this in Georgia. It’s part of the GOP cheating to win playbook.

And 36% of registered voters in Alabama are Democrats

27% of Alabama’s population is Black

im always saying how i love my daily restaurant id check! why dont we do that in more places??

Anyone know of a good cryptkeeper? I was suspicious of mine after so little work was getting done so i set up a hidden camera and half the time he's just sitting there telling stories

The dems are sure they can get these voters if they just throw trans people under the bus

Honest to god I assumed the same think. I thought I knew Count Dankula but it was Carpe Donktum.

Thought they made a typo but then I realized I was confusing Count Dankula and Carpe Donktum

I love how badly the Russian government wants this to fail, and how they had to scrounge around for famous American voices such as Count Dankula to agree with it.

"Quote from Count Dankula" — the Russian government

So the Blockade has failed; and the Iranian supertanker that blew past is literally broadcasting under the name "HUGE". The only way it would be better if it was "YUGE".

Lately I've noticed myself questioning the inner voice that says "I can't do that," "I'm not allowed to do that," I'm not capable of that." Trying things & realizing that I am capable is gut wrenching.

clap stomp music but nobody’s clapping and everybody’s stomping

He voted for bad things to happen to marginalized people.

Sheesh man I dig your work but this is a little egotistical

I'm going to have to start accusing people of living in a bubble if you believe no one listens to Tucker Carlson

Ugh
