Since our cultural literacy is at an all-time low we have to ban Bad Guys With Complex Backstories Who Get Redeemed In The Sequel & go back to guys who hand clasp & laugh maniacally & in moments of peak hubris slip & fall into pits until people can recognize when guys are bad in real life again.

Another reason I hate the crypto industry is they put a ton of money behind Moreno/against Sherrod Brown. That a car dealership owner, truly some of scummiest rich people there are, was able to get elected remains extremely depressing to me.

These AQI levels are apparently even higher than during the wildfire smoke of 2023 and it is very noticeable indoors even with our air purifiers running. Not great!

One of the many end goals of the conservative legal project.

Maybe they should interrogate why that might be instead of just soldiering on….

the World Cup final will be between two teams that Cape Verde played even through 90 minutes

England trying the bombing to win strategy of getting the ball down field.

As I’ve said several times on here, they’ve decided to swap out a version of the Internet that was cheap to run and scale for one that has margins closer to heavy industry and for what benefit?

They learned absolutely nothing from the US team’s chud behavior in the WBC.

I think that Stand Up To Cancer segment would have been a lot more uplifting if they had Boyz II Men sing Motownphilly….

Watching the highlights and just an absurd ride by Pogačar today. Left the rest of the peloton in the dust to catch Carapaz and didn’t even let up after that.

imagine putting your entire hardware division you’ve just put billions into at significant legal risk to steal… a smart speaker.

He’s maybe the greatest riffer of all time. Terrible, terrible person but the guy can riff.

Since "retiring" in 2019, McGregor won one fight in 2020, lost to Dustin Poirier twice in 2021 (one TKO, one broke the shit out of his own leg), pulled out of a fight due to injury in 2024, and now destroyed his knee one second into a match in 2026. Just love to see this guy eat shit.

I spent a huge amount of time this weekend doing a "clean" install of Windows 11 using Rufus that lets you get around a lot of the mandatory install bloat and it still sucks. If I didn't need Office for some consulting work I do on the side I would have absolutely looked at going Linux.

Iñárritu doing Dr. Strangelove x Don’t Look Up?

I hope he got to see Montana.

In a true building your own PC fuck up, I accidentally installed my fresh copy of Windows onto my 4TB HDD instead of my 4TB m.2, thereby erasing everything that had been on that drive! I don’t think there was anything super critical on there but god damn I’m stupid/annoyed with myself.

The Bulls themed City Connect jersey is so good.

This is such a good name for a podcast

If you'd like a sense of just how insane storage prices have gotten, I bought this same drive two weeks ago when it was still "just" $800 for 4TB. The PCIe Gen4 version is just over $1000. Is this a bit overkill for storage, yes? But it's what I want and I don't expect storage to get cheaper.

Me seeing that not only is Pogačar back in yellow, but also nearly 3 minutes ahead of Vingegaard, Del Toro, Evenepoel, and Seixas. Massive swing in a single stage.

This is why they killed Shinzo Abe with a contraption

THE ACKROOMS

I need to know if he picked this shirt himself

WILD crosses on both of those Belgium goals

Insane defensive performance from England in that second half. Can't say they didn't earn that win.

Very aggressive tackle. Worse than what Balogun got booked for but still not sure if that's a red.

nobody in the press wants to address the fact that almost everybody at the upper echelons of tech is a full on eugenist nazi

My dog wholeheartedly agrees.

Vingegaard starting the Tour in Yellow after Stage 1 is exciting. Pogačar might still be inevitable but a fun team trial event to start the #TourDeFrance

Insaaaaane shot to tie. Wow

Boooooooo

Croatiaaaaaaaaa

Just piling on the metaphors aren’t we folks?

Insane shot there

*slaps roof* “We can fit so much racism in this thing”

Is this dude ever not on an insane amount of stimulants/coke?

Tanner Bibee cannot catch a fucking break #guardians

One last ride in Cleveland…?

Well I spent a dumb amount of money on parts for a new PC today. Will hopefully get that all put together by next weekend.

The especially fun thing about this is that the mainstream papers of record will continue to run stories about how some random thing a Democrat said is "raising the temperature" and inciting violence while not writing about this at all

Hamilton and Verstappen are going at it #AustriaGP

New Madeon album is very good and this track has real song of the summer vibes.

Insane run by Cabo Verde there wow

literal inverse swag. A multi-billionaire loser desperately begging zynfused mid-20s psychopaths to partner with him on a quasi-legal gambling ring to prop up his brittle and declining data extraction and advertising operation. He has no contact with humanity outside of other rich weirdo losers

This but for an aperol spritz

We’re all willing this into reality
