This is so much funnier now LOL

I somehow always forget that Shigesato Itoi, creator of Mother/EarthBound, has been arrested numerous times for protesting against police brutality and for progressive changes to the establishment in Japan's government. Makes that cop battle scene in the early game hit different, huh?

there are so many cool things you can do in the browser like fluid typography that just do not work if you also have a team of designers who work primarily or exclusively in Figma

It seems easy to misunderstand this phrase so let me be clear: "Nuremburg trials is the moderate position" was also the reading of the situation the first time.

Holy shit. Noam Shazeer, one of the original authors on the "Attention is All You Need" paper and Character.AI founder, came out as major transphobe. Like Trumpian levels of "this is child mutilation" of transphobia. (via The Information)

Justice Jackson, dissenting, asking the *real* question here

BREAKING: The Supreme Court will allow the Trump administration to enforce its anti-trans and anti-nonbinary passport policy during litigation. The unsigned, four-paragraph order effectively reverses two lower-court decisions. The Democratic appointees dissent. More to come: www.lawdork.com

If you're wondering how this will go Square Enix handed off their mobile Octopath game to NetEase who immediately started using ChatGPT to translate everything resulting in text like this. When players complained they started asking fans to fix their translations in exchange for in-game currency

Mozilla deployed an AI bot that overwrote 20 years of volunteer Japanese translations, without consultation. JP community leader resigned, and the offer from Mozilla is to "hop on a quick call to understand why they're struggling". FFS. HN discussion: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4583...

what gives me confidence in Zohran’s prospects as mayor is not just that he himself is smart and capable but that he has surrounded himself with an extremely talented team of supporters. nothing gets done alone

the train arrived at the platform exactly when I did. thank you mayor-elect Mamdani

Zohran Mamdani: potentially the NYC Streets Mayor of our wildest dreams

Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani has the chance to revolutionize the city’s streetscape, as other ambitious mayors did across the globe. Here’s how nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/11/05/a...

I hope other states take note about how to present ballot proposals about taxes because this is some excellent content design

He has declared war on Trump and made people excited about being New Yorkers. I’m already proud to live here and my god, that was the best NYC pride, don’t fuck with us speech I’ve heard in my lifetime

Mamdani's speech ends and Steinway goes wild.

the speech is historic. god damn

Brad Lander is at the victory party and, folks, he has the custom one-of-one “GOOD FUCKING RIDDANCE” shirt.

just want to remind everyone again that zohran is the one cis candidate i am aware of that had his platform on trans rights written by trans people. i think that matters

“He doesn’t have a mandate” are you fucking kidding? Dick Cheney died the day Zohran is elected he has the mandate of HEAVEN

slightly emotional about having a mayor who has shown up queer and trans people at our nightlife and our rallies this is maybe the first time I actually feel *represented* by someone voted to represent me

Inbox— next cover of the New Yorker: “Mayor Mamdani,” by Edel Rodriguez

Zohran at the rally for trans youth on february 8 ❣️ he was polling single digits.

i hope this election cycle empowers everyone the next time a centrist liberal says to drop pro-trans and pro-immigrant rhetoric to enthusiastically tell them to shut the fuck up

wow he’s not even mayor yet and Zohran already killed Dick Cheney 🥰

Last month, @eva.town and @mbbischoff.com presented at Chi Hack Night to talk about how Namesake is building support for legal name changes. Our recording is now live! Thanks @chihacknight.org for having us 💜

fun side project: heard a banger album on the radio, there are no digitizations available anywhere online (!!) so I'm snagging the vinyl off of ebay and booking time at the public library to digitize it myself

every day i get a little older and a little smarter

This was entirely LLM generated and it’s obvious: (0) emdash (1) a list that’s too long and symmetrical (2) sentence structure and tone that doesn’t vary at all (3) discordant combo of meme and academic vocab (soy-faced vs torpor) (4) zero emotional pacing: it’s angry but…weirdly smooth?

Zohran is stone cold man. Putting out an ad in Arabic after all the Islamophobic shit that’s been thrown his way? Pure swag. Dems don’t need to copy his politics or even necessarily his campaign strategy, they need to learn how to grow a fucking spine.

this entire article is excellent, but I was especially struck by this insight: for many, faith in technology has supplanted faith in our own human abilities

just witnessed a pharmaceutical ad animated with AI. the US invents such unique flavors of hell

sure, I could fix that little mess in 10 minutes. but what if—hear me out—what if I silently chastised myself for several months first?

just registered for a letterpress class and a game dev class !!! so hype
