briefly as a boat

I mean, listen, this is delightfully on-brand for Paul Schrader. I love this for him. people.com/taxi-driver-...

actually, Anna Wintour runs Wired

i know some people will not believe me but trust me that given the scope and weight of charging an agent of a hostile federal government agency-things are moving pretty fast here

Ope!

Looks like someone couldn’t handle the truth

BAN THE PERVERT GLASSES

My stomach just made the Oscilloscope Pictures noise, is that good or bad

So a big reason the executive class is so high on generative AI, not even specifically at work but in their personal lives, wanting to talk to it a lot, wanting to use it for everything, is a lack of distress tolerance for the messy business of dealing with other autonomous humans.

Cubs might be good

Incredible things happening over in the Junior Circuit. Two whole divisions with zero teams over .500

MLB app glitching out

HOW DO THEY KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS

OH MY GOD

Every team in the NL Central is above .500 and every team in the AL Central is below .500 But the craziest thing: if the season ended today *both* of those divisions would send three teams to the playoffs

What. Lol yes

Darth Maul is just as lame and dumb as everything else in the prequels

If either the Wild or the Timberwolves win their next two series, it’ll be the first time a Minnesota big 4 team has made the final round since the 1991 World Series

Also kind of weird how we don’t talk about that fact that the only reason he’s not literally in prison right now for 34 counts of fraud is that he was running for president. Feels like it’s not supposed to work that way!

From my last few years working in a program that does not have an autocorrect feature, I have learned that my *typing* spelling nemeses are “because” and “remember” (words that I know how to spell perfectly well but can never type correctly)

Ok!

I dunno, I looked bc I was curious, saw that I was on lists called both “DSA” and “neoliberals” as well as a bunch of “AI haters” lists. Fair enough I guess!

I think Hasan is an idiot, but I also think a lot of people are taking “art heists are cool” way, way too seriously

I would love to play first base for the Cubs, but I understand that in the real world that would result in massive humiliation for everyone involved and possibly (probably) severe physical injury for me personally

Incompetent courtiers being put in charge of key technical positions and then totally botching them was a recurring feature and major weakness of historical absolute monarchies and authoritarian regimes. Anyway, Bari Weiss,

Biggest item I’ve ever “stolen” from a grocery store was a $40 brisket, but it was 100% the fault of a manager who thought the cashier was being too slow, angrily took over her register & started rapidly swiping items across the scanner, including my Passover brisket, which didn’t scan 🤷🏻‍♂️

it is important to emphasize that this was *the point*. this was *intentional*. elon musk is a vicious white supremacist who thinks poor african children ought to die, so that the world can be whiter

Still feel like "Musk and his crew of incels destroyed a bunch of stuff they didn't understand and thereby hastened the deaths of millions of children" did not get the public attention it warranted.

No, but that’s a common misconception: you see, Ernest is annoying and oblivious to Vern’s discomfort and/or distress, but he is not stupid.

This mindset is completely alien to me.

I think what's most annoying about these types is they act like people who hate AI are some extremely online minority and meanwhile every poll on the subject shows AI is legitimately one of the most disliked things in the entire country

this is a boring take but if we want this from a Dem President in 2029 we need to deliver the type of huge legislative majority Magyar just achieved and not the razor-thin one that Biden was forced to work with.

It's absolutely amazing how many people responding to this don't understand that it's an obvious shitpost/joke making fun of the exact people it's pissing off.

yeah, i think political work needs to be done to connect vance directly to people like orban. "vance wants to rule over you like you're a slave

As I’ve been saying, *all* ICE arrest should be investigated and as (aggravated) kidnapping and false imprisonment cases and prosecuted to the absolute fullest extent of the law (I believe we’re talking 30+ year sentences)

Tavasz van Magyarországon! youtu.be/B9715I19zsA?...

You love to see it! This is fantastic news

A little depressing that my current version of this is the teen who works the drive thru at my local Taco Bell who gives me a fist bump and says “see you soon, boss”

Cincinnati, Kansas City

Whenever I offer breakfast sausage to my toddler I instinctually/unconsciously sing “baby would you like some sausage” to the tune of “daddy would you like some sausage” from Freddy Got Fingered

Not sure this is a good thing, but I’ve lived my life in such a way that I never have to make this post.

“Is Barack Obama a popular political figure” might be the single most efficient touch-grass heuristic on this website

I really really cannot believe how fucking stupid CEOs/businesses were about the risk Trump posed *to them*

Dems are never, ever going to regain the public's trust on immigration so long as this is the kind of imagery they are using to represent immigration. I don't even need to read this to know it's stupid.

Translation is a form of creation. The translator has to make decisions about preserving style over direct content, about cultural equivalence, about how to preserve a sense of pun or sentence structure from one language to the next. People who assume an LLM can do it are not understanding the task.

He’s just doing this as a tie-in with @blankcheck.bsky.social’s upcoming Gallipoli episode
