Stephen Miller watching the Trump-Mamdani presser

Everybody's trying a little Enron these days

Repost with an iconic fictional band.

I don’t often pray, but please god, have them shoot the Rambo prequel using a digitally de-aged Stallone

When someone takes out their phone during a movie:

I only know the original from MST3K, and now I have to see this, if only to ensure that the remake respects the central role of potatoes

Crazy it took Epstein emails to end his career after he screwed up everything from arguing against action to combat climate change to supporting the repeal of Glass-Steagall. I mean, good riddance, but Larry Summers should have been on the trash heap of history long ago. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Absolute must read on the AI bailout-in-progress: apparently it's not enough that lifetimes of human ingenuity and creativity have been stolen and enclosed to create generative AI and balloon billionaire wealth - much more public looting is in store...

The craziest thing about this is that Charlotte is literally the most boring, normal place you can imagine. Charlotte makes Indianapolis look like Victorian London at its most dynamic. Charlotte almost perfectly conveys the experience of Locked-In Syndrome. Charlotte is an amiable void in spacetime.

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy:

God these Epstein emails are so gross and depressing. Here’s Harvard literature professor and Poetry in America host Elisa New, who is married to Larry Summers, casually chatting with Epstein about the novels Lolita and My Antonia. 🤮

This remake of “Wag the Dog” looks terrible www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-v...

‘No! Not Larry Summers!’ Wails Devastated Nation

just opening up the new Epstein docs at random:

Reply with a shoddy compilation that’s also the artist/group’s best album. I’m going with the obvious answer.

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage

*John Carpenter sighs, breaks out the synth*

The beginning to every Morrissey lyric

Truth.

Dear @rweingarten.bsky.social and @aft.org: Please cancel your partnership with this evil company and stop pushing “A.i.” on teachers and students.

shitfaced jamaal bowman saying this is so fuckin funny i feel so seen right now

Mamdani opens with a Eugene Debs quote!

Dick Cheney is waterboarding angels in heaven now.

Ernst Stavro Blofeld has endorsed Andrew Cuomo

I appreciate a Quisling reference as much as the next guy, but I think of him more as a Pierre Laval, a born political opportunist.

I used “Punishment Park” in class for years. You want to get a student discussion going? Show them a Peter Watkins film - as provocative now as when they were made. RIP www.theguardian.com/film/2025/no...

RIP Adam Greenberg He was the superb cinematographer who shot Near Dark (watch it!), Terminator 2: Judgment Day and, of course, The Terminator, which means he’s responsible for one of my favourite shots in cinema that also coined a new genre for its film:

They literally ruin everything they touch

A born-again AI tech bro is crossing the line into cartoonish supervillainy www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

the nyt posts this stuff like avoiding AI for 48 hours is hard and meanwhile i have literally never once intentionally used an AI program for anything ever

I've built a socioeconomic system that depends on everyone to do useful work and act ethically except the people at the top, who get unimaginable rewards for being antisocial frauds and criminals. And I think it will stand the test of time

A.I. people love to say "right now it's the worst it'll ever be" as if we haven't watched all websites get steadily worse over the last 10 years. You think it's going to be better once they bloat it with a million data trackers and pump it full of ads?

The USA can take this record. I know we can. www.standard.co.uk/news/world/w...

After ploughing billions into AI they’re still desperately trying to find some use for it. I can’t wait for the bubble to burst and all that VC money to be lost like tears in rain.

Doing my bit to fuck with AI

In case you think this is a joke

Graduate seminar did a deep dive on Thomas Paine’s Common Sense yesterday. At the line, “in America the law is king,” they (14 students from 6 countries) burst out laughing. I've been doing this for 35 years and this is the first time that was a laugh line.

"Until we go bankrupt or are fully devoured by one of the three beasts, things are going to be business as usual here. That means doing the job of two and a half employees without complaining."

The Abundance BS is such a con. Just another excuse to avoid actually dealing with wealth disparity

I was married, but I’m not married anymore. Women don’t like the vehicle.

It would be absolutely hilarious to demolish Trump’s ballroom and restore the rose garden first week. Screw the cost, just do it out of spite

It's true, Mike Johnson saw Goody Proctor with the Antifa.
