Before I knew who wrote this, I was already thinking how strange and incoherent the writing seemed. Turns out it's a piece by Thomas Chatterton-Williams. So that tracks...

It's wild that Arsenal ended up winning the Premier League title by a comfortable 7 points after it felt so unlikely the entire season.

Did I take the time to do this in my head? Yes, I did. 🤓 This is definitely a difficult math problem to do in your head though, and I don't for a second believe Trump did something like that.

Life hack: don't take advice from those who would prefer to see you fail.

I still don't know how to process. I've been an Arsenal fan for decades. There has been so much disappointment and so many heartbreaks. But we're Premier League Champions now. It's no longer a hope, it's really real. #Arsenal

For administrative tasks, people will say it takes twice as much time as it does if they want to get rid of it, and half the time it does if they want to keep it.

Always complicated to explain, but it's as logical to describe people of the ancient world as "white" or "black" as it is to describe them as liberal or conservative.

Way too many people think AI will go away if they just hate it enough. This includes many who don't understand they've already been using AI for years now.

A lot of people are going to be using AI to create applications that already exist, but after spending much more on token usage than the price of those existing applications.

Someone I was trying to recruit for my team asked me if I had studied psychology, because apparently I use some established psychological techniques to make people feel warm and safe when speaking. Now I'm wondering how that works.

I often tell AI models their answers are incorrect or misleading, and they typically agree and update. The problem is...the people who can authoritatively tell when an AI is wrong are few compared to those who simply trust what the model says.

I'll just note that critical race theory predicts quite a lot about the current racial retrenchment and for being *correct* it was pilloried in the press and by some academics.

Another position from a kids game at my local chess club. White just played the very clever 1. f6, and black cannot stop white from getting a Queen. Unfortunately it has a very precise flaw that only you can find... Black to play and win, find the whole idea. #chess

I haven't posted one of these in a while, but this was a great position from a kids game from my local club. White is already winning and has an easy move, but there's a terrific idea to be found.

Some liars just have no shame. www.nbcnews.com/politics/sup...

"And just like that, those principles give way to power" - Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson That's such an accurate assessment of how the right wing (and in many cases the center) has transformed over the last couple decades.

"it's not about race, it's just that for some reason nig-...uhh blacks, tend to vote for Democrats."

I must remind people how frequently Trump refers to black people as "low IQ". His racism is so blatant.

The "reactionary colorblindess" of the right-wing justices has reached its logical conclusion in finding that it is racist NOT to let Louisiana—and any other state for that matter—discriminate on the basis of race in voting. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

What's happened to the price of chocolate should be a crime. How am I to survive as a husband under these conditions?

This largely shows how white nationalists will always eventually come for any members of marginalized groups who believe there's safety in collaboration. It's always just a matter of time.

It is both a war crime and extremely evil for Israel to do a "quadruple tap" strike at clearly identified paramedics. Unfortunately we all know there will be no consequences. www.cbc.ca/news/world/l...

Richard Lynn's pseudoscientific racism is more normalized and mainstream in right wing circles than ever before. They don't care what science actually says, the racism is the key motivation.

Arsenal has now made it where they need to get a result away at Manchester City just to have a chance to win the league. Our season could effectively be over within the next week if we lose to Sporting and City.

So once again, Israel is clearing civilian areas for their future expansion. There are many horrible governments, but few of them in modern times are allowed to be as expansionist as Israel has been.

My favorite part of the Artemis trip is where all of them refused to speak when Trump spoke to them. He would've called half of them undeserving "DEI", so good on them.

I'm an Arsenal fan. Hating Tottenham is a part of my identity. Yet I must confess....I don't want Tottenham to be relegated. It's a complex relationship, but they belong in the Premier League and forever in our shadow.

Setting aside the right-wing responses to this, it's definitely a heartbreaking story where there is no real justice possible. It raises questions about mental health care and whether individuals incapable of assessing things like murder should be freely navigating social society.

I'm hoping this ceasefire holds, because I was over this war before it even began.

This is just plain terrorism. Under Trump, the US is just a plain terrorist state. I still can't believe things have come to this.

2 massive and unnecessary losses for Arsenal in a row. Just terrible. 💔 #SOUARS

One of the reasons the Republicans have moved so far right is because groups like Evangelicals are consistent voters who then strongly advocate for their preferences even after the elections. Electoral engagement drives policy outcomes.

I don't usually brag about my pricey, exorbitant trips but i just got back from the gas station.

I just hope this lunatic doesn't think firing a nuke at Iran is a good idea.

Trump consistently refers to black people as intellectually inferior, which is a standard pseudoscientific racism viewpoint.

As a President, Trump causes time to move much more quickly. "I can't believe that was only 2 weeks ago" is something I think all the time now.

There's always a tweet! Trump's older tweets are the greatest source of criticism against his behavior as President.

Deploring Israel's actions as a state isn't antisemitic. Attacking Jews and symbols of Jewish culture in supposed retaliation for Israel's actions is however *textbook* antisemitism and these are not complicated thoughts to simultaneously hold in one's head.

What a goalkeeper mistake by Kepa. #ARSMCI

I haven't posted chess stuff much lately, but I beat a grandmaster and thought it would be fun to share. It was a nice endgame where he was up a piece, but I had much stronger pawns. lichess.org/RH3YypnU

Who could've guessed that Trump's incompetence would end up being a big driver for a shift to electric vehicles.

"We only came to get furniture" cried the grown man as he looked at the IKEA cart filled with items that were definitely not only furniture.

Barcelona really didn't need to embarrass them like this.

"I'm not upset she said no to my proposal. I don't need her. I didn't even want to marry her. I just proposed to see how she'd react." Trump has such big loser energy.

Someone needs to send an ambulance to X

Other Western nations should just make a deal with Iran to protect their interests and leave Trump to struggle on his own. He's already made it clear he doesn't see value in working together with others.

I have to fill up my gas tank again, and it reminds me how terrible and irresponsible a person Trump is.

Our next star boy Max Dowman completely changed that game for Arsenal. What an impact. #ARSEVE

love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region

This is what merit looks like to a lot of conservatives. You can see how qualified he is just by looking at his face.
