The AI bubble may be about to bust. Peter Thiel has sold all of his Nvidia stock. We all need to say this very clearly: NO BAILOUTS FOR THEFT-TECH! Expropriate their asses instead. They stole from all of us and fully plan to burn the planet. They owe us - not the other way around. 1/3

okay, seriously: if we were to corral this, would anyone be interested in contributing? Here is the google form: forms.gle/m2V4j4cDvwNu...

This is how I found out

Every year I do a guest lecture for THEA101 about Hamilton and most times, when I cut to my first slide of LMM, everyone groans. This year they applauded. The vibe has shifted

POV you’re still not married and your grandparents just found the nicest boy with a good job they want you to meet

Genuinely what the fuck is going on in Albania

People who aren’t writers think writer’s block is at least as big and real a problem as I thought quicksand would be, as a child.

This is a thousand years worth of Creative NZ government funding

The dream of every Muslim is simply to be treated the same as any other New Yorker. And yet, for too long, we have been told to ask for less than that, and endure hatred and bigotry in the shadows. No more.

Loved this one!

FINDS THEM AND KILLS THEM "Finds Them and Kills Them (Osh-Tisch) looked like a man, but wore women's clothing and had the heart of a woman.... she was brave and good." ― Pretty Shield Her strength as a warrior is what earned her the name Osh-Tisch, which translates to “finds them and kills them."

So proud of our game! It's been such a fun challenge to make procedurally generated characters that you actually care about; still more work to do but we have made some awesome progress :)

Dam been writing a book about this and she just TikToked it in 90 seconds.

no offends if this is you but if you're thinking "this is going to make the right do fascism" they're already there. they blew up a boat with 11 people on it for being immigrants. they're kidnapping US citizens and trying to rendition them to Uganda. do you think we're on a trajectory to peace

First time I've sobbed at the end of a video essay

Person who hasn't been in NY for almost a decade voice: DOLLAR SLICE IS EXTINCT!?!?

RT if you also wish ill upon JK Rowling.

There should be an election between Eric Adams and Rudy Giuliani but it's just for fun but they think it's real

2025 Political Rising Stars To Keep An Eye On

I drew this on my lunch break your excuses are fucking pathetic

reverse heist movie where a single snake has to chase all the priests back into ireland

the reason we don’t have discourse about a crisis of femininity is that any attempt to construct one would collapse under the absurdity of its outmoded gender essentialism, suggesting that masculinity is not so much in crisis as the uncritical belief that masculinity even exists is itself the crisis

Elias Vance even has an unsettlingly AI headshot on this website where he is moonlighting as a designer of definitely-not-dropshipped home decor

I still don't really know what Internet NZ is but Im glad we seem to be winning the elections

Dude just got off the bus and instead of saying "Thanks, driver" he said "thank you, captain." New level of Kiwiness attained? #kikorangi

posting this bc if I see one more doomer take im going to kill someone with hammers
