Yes, the Grink was there. I'm getting to that. He was on that island with me. And I wouldn't be alive to tell my story without him.

Impeachment sounds like what they call it when they surgically make your ass bigger

Widely known sex abuse rumors that no one can quite get a source on the record for about a leading Democratic governor candidate is exactly the kind of thing Gawker existed to report, I’m just saying.

Posting about AI is so funny because inevitably there are replies like the computer is real and he’s my friend and you asked him the question wrong

Some personal news: Here is a drawing my nine-year old did of the one-eyed dog.

And, again, the explanation for this kind of result is that the ai can’t *do* anything. It can’t count letters or do math. It can only generate what a reasonable answer to this question would look like, which this absolutely is. This isn’t a bug, it’s all that gen ai does.

Incredible

the explicit promise of mass pardons for all crimes committed for the sake of the president is the most corrupt act in the history of the presidency

Tired: Oxford comma advocacy and debates Wired: insisting that everybody uses New Yorker style diereis on words like coöperation or preẽmpt

I made myself a cocktail with a little lemon peel spiral on the glass rim and as I’ve been drinking it the spiral has gradually unwound and every sip I’m just looking at it like yeah dude, same

I’m the type of person who would shrug and do all the promotional bullshit for a $175k writing prize, but that is the trait I find most contemptible in myself. Helen DeWitt is an inspiration. paperpools.blogspot.com/2026/04/we-l...

it is the job of writers to be difficult and inefficient and it is the job of people in "facilitating culture orgs" to deal with that, and in an era of Professionalize Yourself Hustle culture, Helen Dewitt is like one of the Olde Gods rearing up to instill fear, terror, and awe

just give Helen DeWitt a million dollars and a personal assistant! let her write in peace!

In my America, we will simply let the foo be

Leo should excommunicate all of Opus Dei, that’d really set the fox among the chickens in the upper reaches of the US government

"sorry I can't come to your once-in-250-years party. I'll be busy doing something it would actually make much more logical sense to do four days later. I bumped it up on purpose so I could throw it in your face. eat shit forever, amen" there is no hater on earth like a hater from Chicago

Every "I figured out who Satoshi is" thing, documentary or written, begins with some version of "I was watching this bitcoin doc and this one guy seemed strange to me." Oh, someone in crypto seemed evasive and awkward? tell me more, sherlock.

lol i kept seeing people in all the group chats talking about the avignon pope and I assumed they were just goofing, but uh

New: 150 unionized ProPublica workers are on strike TODAY over AI, layoff protections, wages, and more. They're asking readers to not visit ProPublica or engage with content on other platforms. It's the first work stoppage of its kind at the newsroom. www.theverge.com/news/908401/...

It’s probably an extremely normal sign that every discord has a joke about not getting the discord subpoenaed

weird juxtaposition where people in power and influence are saying absolutely heinous, deadly things without any restraint of conscience, and everyone reacting to it is having to bite their tongue and speak in euphemisms not to get banned or arrested or whatever

I slap the hood of perspective. “You can fit so many persons in this baby,” they say.

As an author of erotica, I would never replace my human creative expression with AI. I use these powerful tools carefully, to improve my writing’s quality. My process is very simple: When I finish a new story, I upload the text to Claude and prompt it with one question: “Did you cum?”
