all timer banger

Trump wants a world that is nastier, poorer, and more solitary. We all know who that benefits. Canada needs to actively start pursuing EU membership.

I don't know of any Somali-Americans who've wiped away half a trillion dollars in market capitalization with one 20-minute speech.

Since before I was a kid

It seems we just bombed some residential buildings in an attempt to kill a former diplomat who was trying to facilitate negotiations. A civilian trying to *end* hostilities, surrounded by other civilians in their homes. We are completely lost.

Lots of hall of famers already out there but this one sticks in my mind

from way downtown

If the stakes weren't so high and the human toll wasn't so awful, it would be genuinely very funny how little of a shit Trump gives about any part of his job that isn't renovations or rigging elections. The most obviously checked out dude in history.

I like it how you can see the time when Trump's speech occured

ahhhh looks like the old Pretend To Be A Famous 193-Year-Old Tortoise's Veterinarian And Say He Died And Then Solicit Crypto Donations Through Social Media scam i've seen it a million times

Still watching the Artemis coverage and just heard, “Houston, toilet is powered.”

You laugh but the international space station really does smell like farts www.nytimes.com/2023/11/12/m...

lol at being the governor of st helena. you get a call from a reporter on the mainland probably for the first time in months and it's like "hey can you poke your head outside and check if that turtle is still alive?"

If you’re watching the Artemis II launch, I can not recommend enough TIME’s fantastic cover story about the crew and the mission by Jeffrey Kluger, the best space journalist in the biz time.com/7346146/arte...

Hahahah oh my god

What a fucking shot holy shit

We should rebuild the good parts of the midcentury American economy with the green energy transition and space exploration filling the role of WWII industrial mobilization / Cold War political economy send post

Artemis is a hopeful reminder that government can be a good thing if we staff it with passionate, skilled, and honorable people.

He lived through slavery and did nothing. Good riddance.

“the hotel breakfast is almost always worth it” is one of the worst pieces of advice I’ve ever seen in a travel article www.nytimes.com/2026/03/19/m...

NASA is honestly one of the greatest things humans have ever created, the stuff of math and dreams

This is my favorite climate change chart. Japanese monks, aristocrats, and emperors kept meticulous records of cherry blossom festivals for 1,200 years and accidentally built the world's longest climate dataset.

The Trump administration finds every aspect of Canada a trade irritant. Our existence is a trade irritant. I wish more news coverage reflected that reality.

Every single thing about this idea screams disaster, to the point where I wonder whether even Trump could be this dumb He can, I know, I know

Golly

At this rate we're a couple weeks from Donald Trump helping the Iranians develop the bomb

I’ve been driving minivans since 2009 and I am here to tell you, no other vehicle transports people and things as comfortably and efficiently as

How much of modern American conservatism is, uh, legitimately concerning mental illness

The upper peninsula of Michigan, where in 1997 I said to a teenage gas attendant "no worries" and he replied, "are you from Australia?", is also under consideration

If you were wondering how the class field trip went

The winner of this election will face Soldier or Spy in 2028

It won't be fun, but should the United States ever go to war with Canada I now have some confidence we could end up rich as pharaohs, and perhaps owning several US states

This is outstanding: on the delusions of the movement, the dangers of the movement, and the heart of the movement. I think it's right to be worried about Alberta separatism, and sad about it, too: it is a societally sickened segment of a Canadian population, and little good will come of that.

pulling an airwing that does firefighting in the west away to the middle east right at the end of a very dry and warm winter is one of those things you just file away for later

So what this describes is ethnic cleansing www.nytimes.com/2026/04/01/w...

You do not get credit for all the times you drive sober.

And Jon makes you laugh out loud like 25 times in the first 10 minutes

I hope you'll understand that the only way to keep bad and useless shit out of your life is to shoot it in the head the minute it walks in

It feels odd: something that seems straightforwardly smart and competent is actually happening from a US institution

Why would I use "AI," I actually know how to fucking write

I think this is right, and @jonbois.bsky.social more or less explained that a decade ago www.youtube.com/watch?v=_P52...

beautiful

I think the Supreme Court is going to rule against Trump's attack on birthright citizenship 7-2.

Ah, April 1: it used to be the worst day of the year, and it still is, but now there is more competition

OpenAI ”acknowledged in its own research that LLMs will always produce hallucinations due to fundamental mathematical constraints that cannot be solved through better engineering, marking a significant admission from one of the AI industry’s leading companies.” You can’t trust chatbots.

I don't even understand why ppl ever talked about Chuck Norris jokes in a world where Joe Mazzula exists

A fucking mediocre arsonist

Nice try, Tunisia
