No one wants AI. VR and AR are dead ends too

At some point it was decided that all new technology must either spy on users, advertise to users or better yet, both

I only just found out you can add “-ai” to a google search to omit that stupid AI summary at the top of the results, making Google slightly less unusable

What a powerful and prophetic book.

Sean Hannity and Jay Leno have the exact same head

Instagram needs to work on its targeted ads as I’m not in the market for a Rolex (and if I had the spare money for a Rolex the last thing I’d do with it is buy a watch)

Who do they think would be excited by something like this? Who is this for?

Wonder if back in 2015/16 I ever argued on Reddit with someone who ended up in the Trump administration

The ballroom went from free to a billion dollars pretty quickly

Well if it isn’t the Lizard King himself

dance like no one (except palantir) is watching

Imagine if dem leadership fought back against Trump with the same energy they have for Hasan Piker

Show me in the rules where it say a dog can’t play baseba…oh okay, I see.

I’ll never watch Hot Ones because there are few things more repulsive to me than watching people eat chicken wings

The new Secretary of the Navy is afraid of witches. For real.

I nearly had to ask how to turn on the computer at my new job because Apple decided to put the new Mac Mini’s power button on the bottom of the damn thing

My billionaire is far more righteous and just than your billionaire

Netanyahu should be arrested for his combover alone

The new Beck song would give Ambien a run for its money

We should normalize celebrating the date you decided to quit using Amazon the way people annually mark their sobriety

There’s only one more new-to-me Smiling Friends left

The classical station our cat listens to all day has been bought by a Christian radio network.

Razorcake (an amazing nonprofit punk publication) was kind enough to post a comic I did!

Our boomer neighbors were laying out on their lawn watching workers redo their roof. The work is punishing enough without having spectators.

If we’ve been at war with Iran for my entire life I feel like I would’ve heard about it before three weeks ago

Orban lost - proving once again a Trump endorsement is the electoral kiss of death

That Apple TV show ‘The Last Thing He Told Me’ shows multiple characters doing the “baseball cap as a disguise” thing. It gets absurd at a point.

Orban has the full backing of Putin and Trump

Oh no, I searched “weezer” on YouTube out of morbid curiosity about their new single and now all my suggested videos are weezer based

It’s 2026 - I don’t watch the news, I watch people streaming themselves watching the news

I caught a bit of ABC news tonight and David Muir teased a segment about the 50th anniversary of Charlie’s Angels. There were probably other newsworthy events going on today but this was pretty important too.

Hope everyone bought the apocalypse dip

Imagine going back to 1993 and telling someone “you know the ‘making copies’ guy from SNL? In 33 years he’s going to be campaigning for a Hungarian far right authoritarian prime minister.”

Final day at my current job today. I made a list of things I’d miss and would not miss about it. The miss list has 3 items vs the 2 dozen or so on the not miss list (which includes my boss’ fragrant tuna sandwiches, the lack of functional AC and the loud-barking office dog)

Social media companies in 2026: You can post stuff if you want but nobody’s going to see it (unless you pay us)

What if we all agreed to stop doing April Fool’s Day?

Is there anything that is more simultaneously cool and silly than heavy metal?

I hope your social battery is made using only ethically sourced lithium and cobalt.

One more week at my current job (of 10 years) and then on to a new job which I’m hoping will be better in a number of ways!

“Never again (for us, but maybe again for our neighbors)”

Don’t ever say “no rush” to me because I’ll absolutely take you up on it

If Merrick Garland were in the Fellowship of the Ring: “Guys, let’s just give the Ring to Sauron.”

Boss made a tuna sandwich in the office and I just about hurled

Trying to imagine a crazy fantasy world where people could work a decent job and have enough money for food, housing, healthcare and the occasional bit of fun

I must be getting old - for nostalgia’s sake, I played Angry Birds for a while yesterday and now my thumb hurts.

Do bands work better as democracies or dictatorships? I’d cite The Fall as an example of a dictator-led band. (I suppose the less charged term would be ‘auteur’)

How long would it take us to notice if Instagram just started showing nothing but ads and suggested posts?

A beholder

I feel sympathy for every doctor’s office receptionist that has to listen to dogshit soft rock all day every day. I guess there’s a chance they like it? Or maybe don’t even notice it after a while?
