if trump is as susceptible as people say (he is) then for one brief shining moment immediately after this meeting concludes and before he talks to anyone else donald trump will be a communist too

an underrated stupid thing about matty style punditry is how it is unmoored from any kind of commitment to anything whatsoever. just caroming from idea to idea with no reference to the past, every morning a tabula rasa, every day an opportunity to adopt a brand new half considered idea.

Every office has an executive tier whose emails are like: saw on news , , can we replce complianc dept with web 3 and a worker tier whose emails are like: Dear Jim, First of all, I *love* this idea! Unfortunately, I spoke with Legal and identified a few issues with this approach. For starters…

i absolutely do not want to know tony chachere's politics, let me have this

If you want a real scare this Halloween, I suggest you take a look at the national debt.

literally everyone in the country with my job is on the same 1000+ member listserv and nothing matches the joy/terror of someone accidentally being messy in public because they forget to remove the list email from their catty reply

there's rare footage of archimboldi stage diving haha. he's crowdsurfing. haha nah just joshin

Benno “Greased Lightning” von Archimboldi

My 11yo daughter just walked in the room, looked at the tv, and said "is that a meme." I get she's new to internet culture but no. That is Harvey Keitel in Bad Lieutenant smoking crack. It would be a fire meme tho

I just read this one. Julio Cortazar, The Continuity of Parks. collegelit2014.wordpress.com/wp-content/u...

Kawhi was on a max contract when the no-show job was happening, which precludes an inference of circumvention under the CBA. Clippers are innocent.

My kid sent this to me and I don’t think I’ll ever be able to unhear it.

calling a wet willy a moist William

What AI skeptics don't understand is that, as the technology learns and grows, it will come to understand that Buckeyes fans would enjoy this story more if Ryan Day's Secret Restaurant only served police officers.

The point of management consultants is to provide an external source of apparent authority to justify business decisions that have already been made ("Sorry, McKinsey says we have to do layoffs to compete."). This is exactly what AI does so well, crackpot faux expertise. No wonder they're worried.

when they close it all up, I do believe this will go down as the funniest video on the internet

Someone should ask the representative if she would have voted for a standalone Iron Dome funding bill, since that is what her voting record here suggests.

"Israel, you are committing genocide, the ultimate crime, which cannot be tolerated. Also, here's $10,000,000,000, y'all have fun."

Hogg parachuting in to this week's AZ special house election to (unsuccessfully!) back a former Kamala Harris staffer challenging a progressive candidate endorsed by AOC, Bernie, etc. makes one wonder what the fuck he's trying to accomplish here.

They're calling it the least scanned QR code of all time

I am glad the story about the guy who burned to death in a hypobaric chamber oxygen fire includes a three paragraph section about his time performing as Wilbur Wildcat.

I am going to get a full professorship at this center. I'm going to show Veggie Tales videos to a bunch of 19-year-olds who brought briefcases to class and ostentatiously cry for much of the running time. My salary will be paid by a grant from the Vlad Dracul Youth Education Initiative.

my nonviolence friends and I differ on this question, but imo if somebody is wearing this gear and gets the shit beaten out of them, that's bad ass.

Like definitionally you're a billionaire because you're hoarding value and not investing in stuff. A selling point for a wealth tax is that it incentivizes capital investment.

crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentations of their consultants

Remember if you live in New York City you no longer have to pay rent. Do not send that check next week.

Aside from killing a bunch of people, Cuomo's mismanagement cost New York a seat in the House of Representatives. www.nytimes.com/2021/04/26/n...

there's gotta still be some way for this performance to win an academy award. reupload it maybe

I assume this is bad but need @worstplace.bsky.social to confirm.

NEW RESULT: Philadelphia DA Larry Krasner, one of the best-known 'reform DAs' in the nation, has won today's Democratic primary as he runs for reelection. Krasner is now overwhelmingly favored to win a third term in November in this very-heavily blue city.

i vaguely recall this person being a character on twitter like 6 years ago but the only thing i remember is people saying "dana hole"

MITCHELL (McLaglen, 1975)

Incredible website.

You bet your ass

Here's a take that has aged like a fine brie left out in the sun for months viz. both the limits of executive power and Biden's sincerity in securing a ceasefire.

Every time you see one of these awful stories (which is multiple times a day if you're at all tuned in) remember that Democrats had a choice between stopping shit like this and continuing to fund a genocide and they enthusiastically chose the latter.

“Strategist Brain” is my new catchphrase and a good example of it is a pundit telling people who’ve committed their lives to serving the poor and mistreated that they should participate in an explicitly racist neo-Nazi population control project—I guess because of issue salience/polling?

old enough to remember the breathless litigation over whether or not it was credible that the IDF may have possibly bombed 1 (one) hospital

say what you want about catholicism, but the vatican is beautiful

I had this exact interaction recently. An engineer who uses AI to write technical emails asked me if I use it for legal work. I told him it can't write a brief, is worthless for research, and hallucinates authority, a phenomenon he had somehow never heard about.

And1 more thing

lol. lmao even.
