The analysis in this article is great, but I'm absolutely delighted by the little shifts to a more folksy register for affect like "I'm no zoostronomy expert science man" or "On the tee-vee"

Red Lobster: Fuck It, We Ball

the funniest tweet ever was from like 2008 when it was still almost entirely tech people talking about their lunches and I saw one guy say he'd just given a really bad pitch meeting and so he was going to go huff air duster for the rest of the day

SCULLY: It's impossible. There's no one on earth who could teach you to fit that many marshmallows in your mouth. MULDER: Daff righ...... No one...... on urff...

Your periodic reminder that there is a website that lets you listen to local radio stations anywhere in the world This is honestly one of the coolest inventions ever, imo. Global access to hyper-local imagined communities

The PC in every Pokémon Center allows you to connect to Bill's and Prof. Oak's computers over the network, just like a workstation connected to the Internet in the early days. The source code to Pokémon Red (1996) implies we are using System V UNIX.

Chuck Norris died on Mister Rogers' birthday and I hope that's the only time a Lemon Demon song is prophetic.

I had to pay for some extra treatment yesterday. The total amount was about $360. If you like my writing on docseuss.medium.com, I'm entirely reader supported and REALLY need help with this one.

This got me thinking about how Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is functionally a $120 game if you want every DLC character ($60 base price + $30 for each year of DLC. Piranha Plant is $5, the first season pass is $25, and the second season pass is $30)

Important potato technology.

I think a lot of European underestimation of opposition to trump in the US is rooted in the fact that US media essentially doesnt cover protests at all. Election coverage also makes it seem like half the country voted for him when its closer to 15%, most people just dont/cant vote

there are plenty of reasons Air Force One would suddenly turn around. for example, they may have forgotten Kevin

I would really caution anyone against implying that paywalling this feature is a legitimate response to public outcry. The paywall is an endorsement, not a restriction. Musk is saying "this thing you're all talking about is valuable. Pay me for it." The actual material effect is just monetization.

I still mark the abolition of NSFW content on Tumblr as the death knell of the old, good internet. It was the moment when censorship and sanitization became the norm. And it's very important to always point the blame at Apple, because it's a perfect example of how monopolistic tech operates.

If it helps, people are mad at Democrats because many of their social media presences produce comms which address what's happening as though we're simply dealing with the consequences of going along with a bad restaurant recommendation. The food isn't just bad, we want to shut down the restaurant.

Yeah, yeah, I know. People will just use a VPN, right? Sure. But how will Musk get paid? Ads are out. So are subscriptions. Banning him will cut off what's left of the money trickling into that horrible site, even if he'll go into his own pocket to fund it.

banning X is a national security issue for every country, plain and simple its explicit goal is to amplify and empower the largest Nazi-adjacent party in every country in which it operates it is also the largest deepfake porn generator in the world this is not a difficult call to make

FACT: Movies are lying to you – beating up an inanimate object is not an effective way to deal with anger. Usually it just makes you angrier. COROLLARY: Beating the shit out of an inanimate object is, however, often a very effective way to deal with *anxiety*. CONCLUSION: Anxiety is punchable.
