why do we allow private equity in our society? it's obviously bad for everyone in the world except the people doing it. it should be illegal like fraud

Our Echo Show currently has in rotation "Top 10 Funniest Mad TV Characters." What kind of a partnership is this?! Can you even do that listicle in 2025? I feel like a full 3/4 of those characters should probably be fully cancelled by now

LOINS

We're at the point in these baking competition shows on Food Network where they're introducing contestants with whether or not they've already completed on a TV baking show before. (I'm watching the Harry Potter one with my kids.)

Lions: so far, I approve

There's a contentious maybe-deal to end the shutdown coming where the Dems cave and get essentially nothing, and while all this is going on Trump is going to be doing an interview on an NFL game

sometimes i get all sentimental about the human race but then i talk to some of them and it’s like oh yeah right

So many elaborate heartfelt commercials during NFL games. Like that one with old women sledding.

football’s all like gimme that coconut i want it it’s beautiful but tennis is all like fuck this stupid lemon i hate it

I can only think of James Austin Green's very good Trump impression on SNL now

JFC save the Trump interviews for your "news" division, Fox. He does have a way of stealing attention whether people like it or not, doesn't he?

That's going to be an absolute shitshow. Get the president off of our football game

Fox is talking to Trump during the 3rd quarter of the game?!? What?? NO ONE WANTS THAT

I would love to know how much Microsoft is paying to have its tablets used on the sidelines and by the coaching staff upstairs. New addition of the big Copilot logo too

"Fedora Man" from the press photo the day of the Louvre heist is just a 15 year old kid who always dresses like that. I love it. apnews.com/article/louv...

This is beautiful

bluesky branding refresh unveiled

The late 1970s, a turbulent and unpleasant period, at least economically, featured a whole lot of nostalgia for the 1950s. Remembering the past, when life felt better. I'm just throwing that out there for no particular reason.

This is incredible and we need more old timey switcharoos in football. I want people pulling off Mission Impossible masks and being inside mascot costumes

I am proud to announce that tonight, Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib (MI-12) endorsed my campaign for U.S. Senate. Rep. Tlaib embodies the bold, principled leadership that Michiganders trust to never back down in the face of injustice. Honored to have her by our side in this fight.

I would love to know who leaked this internal employee info to Bloomberg. That's hilarious. Trust me, retail is full of shit like this and worse that no one cares about.

I think it's amusing that the biggest reaction to the news that Target employees now need to smile and greet people is "leave me alone, it's weird." I mean, agreed. But this is a switch in society that corporate retail is not at all realizing or prepared for. It's a rule at a lot of retail stores.

WHEN IS MY WENDY'S APP GOING TO GET AN AI ASSISTANT IT'S WHAT THE PEOPLE ARE CLAMORING FOR

my hobbies include going “yeah?” when a cat meows at me

It's Friday night baby

This is what they took from you

please, my eyes

Just did a Google search for a Sonic character that my son was talking about and yikes on trikes, I should know better. Put Safe Search on for that one

They really don't want people to eat.

Buried in the Big Beautiful Bill were changes to food assistance that demanded “any future change be cost-neutral. Translation: no more benefit increases, even if food prices skyrocket.” The result was “institutionalized hunger.” @kristencrowell.bsky.social www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

It's the other one.

🚨 LOCAL BIG BOAT STUCK 🚨

Congratulations to Zach McKinstry on winning his first career Silver Slugger award! 👏

I'm interested in what technology can do. The economic bubble, the repercussions for art and journalism .... I get it, it's a lot. But I can't help but be fascinated by it.

I get annoyed that every business story is now "the economy depends on AI." Every press release is about adding AI to things. Tech, retail, you name it. That's the business side. I don't care about that. I mean, it's kind of fun to play around with for free. That's all.

I just want to make a few dumb pictures 🤷‍♂️

I wish there could be a middle ground on generative AI that's like "I realize it can be problematic, but it's still kinda fun to play around with." Online it's either full-on grifter hustle bros that are really into it like they were into crypto, or it's "how dare you even think of using this!"
