When I left the Washington Post in 2023, my colleagues and I were worried AI would hoover up our work and enable "zombies" to churn out stories based on our reporting and writing styles. Today WaPo announced a partnership with OpenAI. And here it is: Zombie Gillian Brockell. I DID NOT WRITE THIS.

Heads up Texas

In October 2022, Marcus Moore from Annapolis launched Moore Crunch Pretzels, now sold at Camden Yards. “It’s more than the pretzels. It helps my confidence and stuff.” On Thursday, Moore will throw out the 1st pitch at #Orioles’ Autism Acceptance Night: www.mlb.com/orioles/news...

Was struggling with drawing wind the other day (I know, I know) so I decided to pare it down to it’s absolute simplest form with a little CHARLIE BROWN & SNOOPY here to help my scrambled brain.

Calm down, folks, it was just an attempted assassination of a Jewish Democratic governor and his family on the first night of Passover, it’s not like somebody spray painted a dick on a Cybertruck.

Unionize everyone unionize

I’m left with a certain sinking feeling that says if the Nintendo delay picks up steam and points a lot of new fingers at Trump, the administration will vindictively start picking apart the whole industry under the guise of “video game violence is destroying the youth” or some such shit.

Yes, the stock market may be tanking and our national security apparatus has never been more vulnerable and we're on the verge of both economic collapse and war, but it was all worth it to keep pronouns out of email signatures.

Carney: The system of global trade anchored on the United States.. is over. Our old relationship of steadily deepening integration with the United States is over. The 80 year period when the United States embraced the mantle of economic leadership… is over.

New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said that she plans to mobilize her massive base of followers to oppose what she described as an “acquiesce” by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer to accept the House GOP funding bill.

Schumer says he doesn't care about democracy, fake outrage is his only course of action. Really fuck this guy and his generation

literally all the democratic party has said to me and my peers since 2016 is "fuck you, we don't want you, and we don't need you" while spamming my phone nonstop for money and then, after, "you're why we lost" and the notion that i would invest an ounce of energy in helping them recover is ludicrous

We should be forgiving people, but not forgetful. In the rush to make excuses and welcome these people back into the fold, we skip the critical parts of them acknowledging fault (not just being wrong) and the harm it caused. Does anyone think she wouldn't vote for someone like Trump again?

This is what oligarchy looks like.

A 1942 Gallup poll on Bible reading and the song that immediately popped into my head when I read this.

My weird #dog 🐕 asleep again

THEY’RE CLIMBING THE POLES IN TOKYO GO BIRDS🦅🦅🦅

Jalen Hurts got everyone in bed at a decent time on a school night because he cares about the teachers

The NFL removed the ‘end racism’ text from their endzones once Trump got elected, in a clear nod to the notion that racism won.

Representation without taxation for a handful of billionaires, taxation without representation for the rest of us.

Elon Musk is not a Federal employee or a political appointee. DOGE is not a real department. None of their activities are legal. This is a coup. The Republicans in Congress are willing participants in it. At what point do Democrats in DC get that and start acting like it? It’s not the price of eggs!

It is astonishing that mainstream media is covering this like it is a shruggie vibe 🤷‍♂️

My dog is a weirdo

Had to get dressed up tonight.

What a beautiful morning in the Magic Kingdom at #DisneyWorld

We were at Pinballz in Austin last night #pinball

I wonder if they ever figured this out 🤦

Damn, I forgot about that until now. (Not originally mine, taken from Discord)

Saw someone complaining online about all the “women” film remakes. I assume he means remakes replacing the male leads with female actors. You know what movie can’t be remade like this? Three Men and a Baby. All 3 women would know what they are doing and he competent. That’s not funny.

bots are becoming a bigger thing on this platform now. not as bad as twitter, but it’s a shame that no matter what, we’re forced into experiencing the internet technological rot that infests online spaces now

Why does Twitter get this special "stay and defend the platform" treatment? Where was this when GeoCities died, or MySpace? I left Facebook years ago, and I bet many others did too over the years, but there were no thinkpieces defending its international import as a marketplace of ideas.

Since there are, uh, a lot of new people here, some resources I've set up: TV Critics Starter Pack (follow 'em!) Comic Book Podcasters Starter Pack (follow 'em!) Entertainment News Aggregators (block 'em!) Entertainment News Feed (pin it! read it! click it!)

Okay, y’all… I have finally decided that retreat is the better part of valor. Bringing some rainbow energy over to these blue skies. #bydhttmwdi

“Stay on Twitter and fight” Fight for what my brother in Christ?

i think the only disappointment here so far is the lack of sensual comments from very real ladies with four followers
