NEW: A hobbyist has created Nearby Glasses, an app that warns you if someone close by is wearing smart glasses. 404 Media spoke to the creator who said he was inspired by our coverage that uncovers how men are wearing Meta's Ray-Bans to covertly film massage parlor workers.

Kash Patel in 2023: “I’m just saying [FBI Director] Chris Wray doesn’t need a government-funded G5 jet to go to vacations. Maybe we ground that plane. $15,000 every time it takes off. Just a thought.” (Patel charged taxpayers approximately $75,000 so he could take a private jet to Milan)

I read a ton of reactions to Bad Bunny’s halftime show, both here and in the bad place. I watched the show again this morning. Yes, it was an incredible performance. Joyful, emotional, uplifting. It was a love letter to humanity…to Puerto Rico…and more. …

I’ve enjoyed hearing/reading his thoughts and podcasts, such a unique perspective. Scott is one of those dorks you ignored in high school if you were popular then realized years later as you matured that maybe you were the dork because he’s actually pretty cool,wise, and funny (in a dorky way).✌️

What if the crowd at the Super Bowl started screaming “Fuck Ice”? Just doing a bit of manifesting here—it would be an international story. And sure, they might scrub it from broadcast the way @cbs did but…

I guess he just got lucky.

How does your ass feel being handed to you, Congressman sycophant? When the only reason you win an election is because of Daddy’s connections, I guess you aren’t quite qualified to hang with the big boys! 🤣

I’ve learned not to assume that other guitarists already know what has taken me a lifetime of strumming to learn. My first and simplest piece of advice is to always tune your guitar before playing anything, as soon as you pick it up, tune up. It’s like a pre-flight check for an airplane. Tune first.

It's incredible what you can do when you just say words and don't believe they actually mean anything. I would wonder how these assholes sleep at night, but the simple answer is that they're sociopaths.

As you’re preparing for your Thanksgiving meal, remember the skilled work it took to get that food to your grocery store. Tell us your favorite Thanksgiving dish, and we can share some of what we know about the work behind the ingredients.

DHS confirmed it has stopped automatically storing officials' text messages. Instead, officials are supposed to take a screenshot, send that to their work email, download it onto their work computer and run a text-recognition program on it. Every time. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/06/u...

Jennifer Welch on Riley Gaines: “You’re an insufferable twat. Nobody likes you and no matter what you'll always have been the dumb bitch that tied for 5th place. Nobody likes you except for the other fake Christians that enjoy their spare time watching children get ziptied. So fuck you Riley Gaines”

The government shutdown is especially tough on men, who are losing $1.00 for every 75¢ a woman loses.

Bahhhaaaaahaaaa🤣🤣🤣. Data matters. “Gay and trans people need to be banned because I can’t stop thinking about how hot sex is with both!”

What’s. It. Going. To take?

Again: this is not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

I did a conference panel once where I was asked by a student if an MBA would make him a good manager of people. My response “Those who think MBAs give you that skill are very confused” and the rest of the panel (of consultants with MBAs), none of whom managed anyone, absolutely erupted in self own

Fucking weirdos can’t even just enjoy an orgasm!

The #1 domestic terror threat in America is right-wing terrorism and white supremacist violence. They echo the conspiracies that have been mainstreamed by Trump, MAGA and right-wing media. No accountability. No scrutiny. They just keep doing it because it fuels their agenda and brings in $$$.

Just so’s we’re all clear, almost 3/4 of everything we buy from Europe is now 15% more expensive.

Always a hypocrisy

Barbarino, Horshak, and Washington never would’ve done such a thing

Watch this to the end.

The only reason Republicans have a reputation as "fiscal hawks" is that the press refuses to tell the public basic facts about what they do when they are in office.

Brutal.

Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto M. Carvalho didn't hold back when expressing his anger and "contempt" after agents with Homeland Security attempted to gain access to two elementary schools earlier this week.

The Los Angeles Police Department has stated that demonstrations in the city have remained peaceful. Let that sink in.
