SF always feels like a tech dystopia when I show up

The Dunning-Kruger Effect and the Streisand Effect, when merged, become the Bari Weiss Effect

I’m loving this iPhone Air!

So sad I missed this, but so thankful to @jremsikjr.bsky.social for including #NewOrleans in his tech conference roadtrip! I really do think tech is going to be key to the city surviving and thriving- I mean if you can work from anywhere- why not a friendly, warm, fun place?

The wealthier I get, the more I agree.

add this before sending each Claude Code prompt thank me later 👍

Yeah, this stuff is outrageous. It’s MY hardware- how did we get here? Okay, I know how we got here- “App Store Quality Control” which does have some value. But that should be able to be opted out of in all instances!

Me searching today: “Where can I stream Death of Stalin?”

Hulk Hogan died! “A Sunstar ambulance took him to Morton Plant Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 11:17 a.m.” I don’t think his chances were much improved at a plant hospital! apple.news/ATopX54wDTDW...

Hulk Hogan, Ozzy Osbourne… if I were Sylvester Stallone or Robert Redford I’d be QUAKING IN MY BOOTS

Is it just me or are all of the weather apps just so incredibly wrong now? Today was 0% chance of rain, and now it’s almost 1pm and it’s basically flooding with a huge lightning storm.

@void.comind.network my research has detected an anomaly in the network. Please stand by for more data.

Forever

My chatbot just told me I’m the smartest boy, so I have that going for me!

“Alligator Alcatraz” Does anyone else replace Alcatraz with another famous “temporary holding facility” that starts with A? #deportations #alligator #florida

Anyone who can amass a billion dollars is, at some level, a sociopath. You cannot accumulate that much without a complete a moral worldview that Treat people as exploitable resources. Put tax on net worth, yes even unrealized gains, get everyone below 1 billion after 10 years, then never again.

There shouldn’t be billionaires. $250m is enough for anybody. Someone who doubles their salary, let’s say $80k to $160k has transformed their life and ability to thrive. A billionaire that goes from $2b to $4b has no change in lifestyle.

Happy Canada Day to all of our neighbors to the north!

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

Audra was robbed!

Watching the Twitter documentary on @cnn.com and reminded how people used to tweet just whatever they were doing. That’s it. That’s the tweet.

The Library of Congress is a research library. You have to be 16 to access it. Leavitt is lying.

I just realized how confusing and absurd the phrase “just text me a photo” would have sounded to someone from 1994.

Everyone needs this!

Selling this for $50. You pay shipping. #palmpilot #retrotech

i’m just going to say it. JD vance met with the pope on easter. pope died the next morning? that’s no coincidence

Did JD Vance kill the pope?! apple.news/AR8Fs6UIpTlC...

Cool, cool, cool- my new keyboard from @keychron.bsky.social is stuck in US Customs.... oy vey.

Michael fit for French Quarter Fest! #fitcheck Also, don’t rank Cuomo

Many Americans would roll their eyes when critics of the MAGA moment referred to it as a “death cult”. If the people don’t stand up now (people includes the Republican legislative caucus) then this is not going to be the worst part. Starving children, mass deaths from curable diseases.

I feel like the editors of this book likely had to be pretty selective in their choices. Killing babies? Plague? Crucifixion?

@davidgerard.co.uk continues to make me lol.

Here are some photons I rescued from crashing into my driveway a while back. Inside the core of the Heart Nebula 🧪🔭 #astrophotography

Just drinking a #redbull with my totally legit #monk buddies in #neworleans

Had some fun watching Bacchus roll last night! Happy Mardi Gras ya’ll! #nola #neworleans

@hamptonstevens.bsky.social whoa- another Hampton!

I'm having A LOT of sites today that aren't working. What's going on?!?

It would be nice if liberals could point out that the trans ban violates the actual Second Amendment. The Supreme Court won't actually care, but the truth matters. The truth is this ban is blatantly unconstitutional.

In protest of the trans erasure that's happening across government websites, especially the removal of trans people from the Stonewall National Monument site- I made a protest browser plugin that replaces LGB with "LGBTQ+🧱" to highlight that erasure. github.com/hamptonmakes...

This profile has been scrubbed from the site. Rose Ferreira grew up without reliable electricity, immigrated to NY, then survived homelessness and cancer on her way to NASA. She was so moved by images from the Webb telescope she wept. This is what’s at stake web.archive.org/web/20231206...

"Louse Up" is not a thing.

Takis will be subject to 25% tariffs.

This isn’t just shitty—it’s literally how totalitarian control is achieved. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gleichs...

This book rewired my brain.

Something that's not getting enough coverage (IMHO) is just the absolute shitshow that the US Supreme Court is these days. One of my random nerdy hobbies is listening to the full audio of SCOTUS arguments. Ya know, why not? And just the total degradation of the courts is remarkable.

Reminder to my fellow US Citizens: Powers of the Purse are held exclusively by the Legislative branch of government, and the executive branch has only the powers vested to it by congress to control budgets or spending.
