Maries neues Buch ist da!

I know that's besides the point, but... the Canadians have two goals, the rink's outline changes from shot to shot and there's at least three pucks in play. They bled the entire RAM production dry and the slop can't even get the basics right.

Fantastic, quasi-comprehensive article on the myth of linguistic determinism.

What you idiot commies don’t understand is that if we tax rich people they will JUST LEAVE, depriving our nation of tax cheats, political bribery, and national acts of perversion

Wishing a happy and prosperous New Year to all our students, staff and alumni celebrating, whether you’re enjoying Lunar New Year, Chinese New Year, Losar, Seollal, Tết Nguyên Ðán, Tsagaan Sar or another festival! 🎊

I'm so over American tech bros inventing a new bullshit scheme every few years. I wanted to upgrade my PC after the NFT bubble popped, waited too long, now I gotta wait for this one and be quick before the next bs tech gobbles up the hardware.

Hakeem Jeffries, on the Joy Reid Show, said something that stuck with me. He said "there's a difference between Democrats and Republicans", and then went on to list how life is markedly worse for most people under GOP rule, and that therefore, it's irrelevant if he takes money from AIPAC. 🧵

The German press expects you to clutch your pearls over the revelation that our nazi party is doing nepotism. You know. The same people that can't shut up about heritage and inheritance are doing nepotism. Wow. That'll show em. Surely no ones going to vote for them now.

mom they’re roasting the US economy on mastodon again

Rogue One is my favorite “new” Star Wars movie, and it regularly strikes me how much it fails to live up to Andor

I accept that my laser printer must periodically perform strange rituals inside its guts in order to continue to live forever and never require new toner. I just wish it didn't need to happen at 2am on a Tuesday. I assume it's something to do with the moon but it's disruptive to my sleep schedule.

I dream of having enough stability in our culture that anyone who wants to can pursue the arts, but the meaning comes from that pursuit, from translating human experiences through skills acquired over time. Art is labor, but it isn't just some commodity that can be pulped and reconstituted.

sneaking around the neighborhood at night, slapping stickers that say "I bought this after Elon begged to go to the wildest party at Pedophile Island" on every last Tesla I find

Jelly Roll has concepts of an opinion on ICE.

Said it before, will say it always - for a bunch swindlers, executives & investors are the biggest marks going. Naive fantasists who believe anything that validates their myopic prebaked view of reality. Unable to change, unwilling to learn. Marks. They’re THE reason the industry’s suffering.

My brother in Christ, you HAD a deal and then you tore it to shreds because Obama lives in your head 24/7 rent-free.

"SD employees are shocked they work for the SS."

Before this discourse hits the public conscious: If you consider every Wehrmacht soldier, even those that were forcibly drafted, a nazi, then by that same token, every US army soldier who follows the order to invade Greenland is a fascist. I do not see a way how you can argue one but not the other.

No Jordan, what ICE does in Minnesota is not Un-American, it's fascist, which does not automatically make it Un-American. We as Germans had to come to terms with the fact that Germans were fascist. You can't create a loophole and claim those guys aren't American if they're fascist.

Honey, he's just not that into you.

Curious understanding of "opt-in" there, CDBaby. This is how you find these two settings before touching anything.

youtu.be/9hXyrGwv3nY Grab a newspaper and brace for impact! New video out now.

And the Nobel Desperation Prize goes to...

I've always been fascinated by C.G. Jung off Temu. Lobster man has evidently completed the charlatan cycle and is now launching "Peterson Academy".

Watch Republicans twist themselves into a pretzel trying to explain why Maduro needed to be removed by force and not describe themselves.

Remember the reason they haven't done it to your country yet, is not laws or ethics, but that so far it hasn't been materially expedient.

I would be immune to this sickness. If a machine were nice to me I would know it's wisdom could not be trusted.

Ihr Lieben, ich bin jetzt seit einem Jahr hauptberuflich freie Lektorin. Das werde ich auch weiter machen, jedoch unter neuem Namen. 💚 Wenn ihr ein Lektorat benötigt, ein Korrektorat oder einen hübschen Buchsatz: Schaut gern vorbei! www.lektoratwortwelten.de #BuchSky #GermanBookSky

Ist die gewaltige Abneigung gegenüber Telefonaten mit Servicemitarbeitenden eigentlich ein Millennial-Ding? Oder gibt es Millennials, die spontan bei Hotlines anrufen können und nicht erst einen Kaffee, die Lieblingskekse und einen zehnminütigen Pep Talk brauchen? Frage für ... eine Freundin. 👀

Damn it, Youtube, read the room.

It appears our local German tax-funded broadcaster NDR found their very own Graham Hancock and netflixed him up, including the right-wing "Spezialistentum" allegations against established academia. Great write-up by historian @smagnussen.de from my alma mater Kiel. German language.

Behold: The argument for why AI is a massive time saver meets the argument that AI "art" isn't slop because it requires a lot of tireless "work".

i cannot stop laughing at this

Student of mine on the concept of a single exam at the end of the semester to make up the entirety of one's grade: "You know what it's like to play a video game without checkpoints?"

BOX

Several comments underneath my last video questioned my claim that I have terrible taste in video games, so here's a list of awful takes I may add on to when I remember them.

Just started playing Ghost of Tsushima and the gameplay is really neat. Now usually, I value mechanics above story, but the writing sure is - a surprise. I may as well sit through hours of Overwatch Hanzo cinematics on repeat. This doesn't feel like a Samurai film, but a caricature of one.

Harming trans kids - using art to capture the impacts of the Sussex ICB investigation on trans adolescents and families. Please read and share. The art is not mine - the artist wishes to remain anonymous. growinguptransgender.com/2025/11/19/h...

And the award for best radicalizing young reactionary men goes to...

One reason the Hitman games feel so comforting is that they simulate a world where the rich and powerful are geniuses masterfully pulling strings in pursuit of devious schemes, rather than a bunch of embarrassing nepo babies stumbling over themselves on the hunt for their next power trip.

"Surplus value" or "profit" is the value of your labor that your employer decides not to pay you.

Now that a self-proclaimed "democratic socialist" has won the NY mayoral race (and I couldn't be happier about that) and after I'd read a CNN article about other "moderate" Democrats winning, I made this little table to help translate between the American and European political spectrum.

Mamdani quoting Andrew Cuomo's father during his victory speech over him

You must take my legitimate concerns seriously, ideally without making me say out loud what they are as I find when I do that they tend to sound a bit awful.
