So jealous of the lawyer who had this walk into their office..

Bill Cassidy selling out everything he believed and cared about to Trump for Trump to shit on it and him remains one of the funniest subplots of Late Trump

Kill the cop in your brain and replace him with a Mini Mamdani

imagining a grizzled hardboiled detective saying this while gripping some guy's lapels at a shady bar

YOU LOVE TO SEE IT

You’d think it would be the other way around at this point.

Typing from a colder state, I think the solution is to sell people on heat pumps rather than air conditioners. “Replace your heating system with something that will save you money and keep you cool in summer” is a better pitch than “install this brand new system just for a couple months a year”

My most leftist opinion is that we shouldn't carve left wing figures into a Native American holy sight are you fucking crazy? Like not even metaphorically in a parallel pretend America would this be a good idea wtf

New: the tokenpocalypse is here, companies scrambling to stop spending so much on AI. I got leaked audio from consulting giant Accenture showing AI token spend/'chewing' is not from supercharged engineers. It's non-technical workers converting PDFs to presentations! www.404media.co/the-tokenpoc...

Scientific American is 180 years old. The most eminent science magazine for the general public. And today, sold off as scrap to stop the staff from unionizing. Many top editors I've worked with for a decade on several articles have been fired. What a disgrace @sciam.bsky.social

The Secretary of Defense is actively undermining national security

Reflecting Pool update: there is no fencing contrary to earlier TMZ reports and an edited image with tarps. Source: im looking right at it

oh you fool, they're not keeping us out, they're keeping the algae in.

Algae is loving this news cycle. They’ve never been more relevant. Microzooplankton sitting at home changing the channel like, what about us? we even have cilia and pseudopods, this is bullshit.

Gawker, bless it, tried to warn us. www.gawkerarchives.com/gawker-was-m...

If I were writing the script, a terrifying new disease would spawn from the reflecting pool swamp, turning people American flag blue as they die. The administration would desperately reach out to Dr. Fauci for help, who would for some crazy reason let their calls go straight to voicemail.

That's the outcome this sort of sentencing incentivizes, yes bsky.app/profile/alex...

given what Elon is willing to say out loud now, I’m amazed he’s not willing to say the actual reason he wanted to kill USAID, which is its role in the end of apartheid

Since I think a core issue here is “people with pretty good domestic politics who don’t really care about or think about foreign aid beyond vague stuff they read online sometimes,” and I believe we can and must do way better than that, for the sake of the world.

Finally, I can get killed by the mob after doing a routine audit of a union's books just like in the old days, before wokeness

juanita broaddrick retweeting an insane fantasy conspiracy posted by john mcafee news years after mcafee died, wheeeeee

Absolute madness

i think it was a mistake for indexes to break their own rules to let space x in and i think they will come to regret it

Like I said: admitting to liking Elon Musk must become socially equivalent to admitting you pleasure yourself to a picture of Pol Pot on a nightly basis. This creature is not redeemable, and anyone who defends his genocidal insanity is complicit.

oh no

Every single day that we do not impeach and remove Trump, every single member of Congress is violating their oath of office.

hate it when i accidentally copy-paste the wrong post from my secret Hitler account 😔

Employees at Scientific American were told today that the magazine has been sold to LabX Media Group, the outfit that runs Discover Magazine and IFLScience. And that means -- of course! -- editorial layoffs. The media mass extinction rolls ever onward.

I have been doing a lot of critical reevaluation of Roman and medieval historians recently because I am living through the kind of end to an autocratic regime that very sober, serious modern historians have footnoted with phrases like "an unreliable account from a hostile chronicler."

NEW: Insane screwup inside Meta. The company exposed worker keystroke data that was being used to train AI — making it potentially accessible to anyone at the company. The data included personnel and performance info, private convos, full transcriptions…imagine your coworkers seeing all of that.

What's the over under on the National Guard being ordered to open fire on the Potomac a la Caligula?

anyone mind if i take a break from the depths to recommend a well known figure from american history with an insane life and rollicking good wikipedia full of incredible details you almost certainly didn't remember. important to know him i think! just read the whole thing i can't screenshot it all

i don't really know how "the government is sending deportees to dangerous countries on purpose to imprison or kill them" is not a bigger story

Between this and the stellar WSJ story about Polymarket's fake bettors, it really feels like we have completely given up on requiring influencers to disclose paid partnerships. It only hurts consumers.

This weekend DoorDash tweeted about the World Cup but repeatedly tagged T-Pain, as if they were mixing him up with NZ soccer player Tim Payne. T-Pain got in on it too, acting confused. Turns out it was all a "partnership." No ad disclosure on any of the posts. www.theverge.com/news/954145/...
