The reasons billionaires keep buying up things like Twitter and CBS and immediately run them into the ground isn't just because they don't understand business. It's because we've allowed them to amass enough excess wealth they can punish us by destroying things and it doesn't affect them at all.

Just take stock of how many things are becoming unavailable to you lately for no other reason than someone has too much wealth and too much spite, and start to realize that putting a 90% wealth tax on these assholes is the kind and gentle solution to the problem.

Superintelligence is now Intelligence365 for Business.

I say it every year and I'm still surprised. When the kids sell cub scout popcorn, they might as well skip every house with a US flag anywhere. A pride flag means a guaranteed donation. And conservatives say charitable giving should replace government spending...

The thing that is getting the most mainstream coverage for AEW isn't an angle or a celebrity guest star, but wrestlers there showing empathy and humanity.

Going through my pictures, I took this one at the hotel we stayed at on our last vacation. My daughter asked why and I told her it would amuse someone on the internet, which just made the weird look she was giving me get weirder. Anyway here ya go @shezcrafti.com 😆

I've been meaning to show off this awesome sticker that was in the latest @dinosaurdracula.bsky.social Funpack. Gorgeous! I also opened a pack of Batman & Robin cards from a previous Funpack. Apparently I got the "Oops! All Mister Freeze!" assortment. 🤣

The Japanese Mario 64 official strategy guide is an incredible thing. "Can we make little hand-made dioramas of all the levels?" "Sure, why the hell not."

It's important never to forget that our enemies are human beings, just like us. This means we already have a strong working knowledge of their Hit Point pools, defense values, and elemental weaknesses.

... is that good?

i looked at the methodology for this and it is a. sex addiction counseling group in texas did a surveymonkey and extrapolated the results to the entire us population which is the sort of research design that earns you an ff on an intro methods class (the extra f is for extra effort), and b. p-hacked

So AEW is just a televised D&D group? Got it.

I’m not talking about the “AI “actress”” thing because it is so clearly an astroturfed non-story which only benefits from people taking it seriously, even as outrage / distaste. It does not exist. It *will* not exist, at least as executed by these people. I refuse to fall for it.

How I'd book it: Stoke hires Lashley as a one-night member of FTR. Knight holds his own but it's not going great. FTR can't help getting involved and accidentally screw Lashley, giving Knight the win. Lashley power slams Stoke on the way out. (my wrestling predictions have a success rate of 0%) 🤼

HBO Exec: What the hell is your guy doing? Tony Khan (been waiting six years for this): Cowboy shit. HBO Exec: Tell him to stop! Tony Khan (sees another chance and can't help it): He did nothing wrong. HBO Exec: Well you can't leave things like this! Tony Khan (weeping): Leaves is plants! 🤼

You need to read Batcat. Trust me on this. ❤️

"These are pencils. No, I said penCILs. Why did you think they --nope, don't answer that, I see it."

Yeah, I can go out tonight. Let me just put on my makeup first

Friends, Spooky season is upon us. Remember... foods dyed black with charcoal can interfere with medications. Don't eat them if you have an Rx

I feel like Joseph Heller had their number back in the 60's in Catch-22 and I still think of this quote whenever I hear farm owners complaining about socialism or benefits or taxes. It was a short little aside but it stuck with me for like 25 years.

Dude really said "I see a dress and I must mansplain" with his whole being. Truly, no one is infallible...

It is Cybersecurity Awareness Month Rule 1: Never NEVER abbreviate Cybersecurity Awareness Month as CSAM

Six years ago, I caught the best foliage pop I've ever included in a portrait:

Those commercials really bothered me last night. It genuinely means the world to see the men's champion, the face of the company, out here with a "fuck ICE" and call to action. 🤼

I need this signed and framed and on my wall YESTERDAY 😍

if I haven't been fucking around, then why do I keep finding out

New episode! In 1993, Majestic Entertainment launched Legacy... except it wasn’t just a comic, it was also a series of trading cards. However, it dropped right as the comic bubble burst, and the behind-the-scenes drama is way more interesting than the book. Listen anywhere but Spotify! #Comics

ER doc here! This is a lie. Wait times are up because the American healthcare system is an unsustainable business model and a for-profit national healthcare system just doesn’t work. These problems will continue to get worse until we change that system. It literally has nothing to do with immigrants

all of the various AI slop lately has only strengthened my resolve that childhood nostalgia is a disease. things weren't better in the 80s or 2002 or whenever. you were just a child that didn't have the responsibilities you do now.

Biblically-Accurate Laptop

if wrestling is fake explain this 🤼

Well don't I feel stupid

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

Some big implications for journalism, too, where reporters often mistake trending posts as a reasonable reflection of public opinion.

this is one of the most chilling scenes in jurassic park, wherein, rather than showing us the brutality on screen, the movie uses sound effects to imply the gruesome violence as the cow beats the shit out of a bunch of velociraptors

I cannot express how wild this quote is. This is a top tech analyst at a well-regarded firm saying that there is not enough capital to actually pay for all the stuff that NVIDIA and OpenAI has promised. It is so important that everybody realizes that *there is not enough money to do this*

True! plush.city/@JellyTBeagl...

this is the car equivalent of buildings that were previously pizza huts

probably spent too long on this when i should be working

ICYMI, Willfully Ignorant: The Internet Is Over westweekever.com/2025/09/24/w...

stop telling me it’s not surprising that, as an author in the forties, Asimov didn’t include many significant women in Foundation. the latest research indicates women may have existed since at LEAST 1922

All timer for me hey! #genx #xmen #comics #drawing

One of the comments makes the point that there's so much available to watch that younger generations have little tolerance for anything they deem "filler" or a "waste of time", implying that extraneous sexual content is just an easy target. I'm not prepared to unpack it, but it's giving me pause.

Imagine thinking you need AI when Roger Corman spent a total of $136 on all of his films combined and they're pretty good
