When I was 22 and brand new in NY, I went on a first date. She suggested the NY Neofuturists. I never saw her again, but i started volunteering with the Neos. Within a month, through the Neos I would meet my wife and my Night Vale co-writer.

this newspaper really thinks there are only eight universities in this country and even so only ever reports on four of them

The level of deep "yeah that makes sense" characterization in the Noel Goes to Hooters Arc needs to be studied. Also this mural

joke's on you that's what i'm going for

Something people don't really remember but is true is that one of the *top* political issues the media covered in the runup to the 2014 midterms was the idea that Barack Obama had badly mismanaged an Ebola outbreak because 10 total Americans had gotten it

Happy to see Noel really turn his life around, things are looking good for our boy.

(getting convicted of a crime i committed) The government is being weaponized against me

Bart's Revenge

Friedkin: This guy'd clearly had a lot of smoke blown up his ass by the suits at Disney. He wouldn't get in the truck and I told him, this film isn't going to work if we don't see you in the truck. Interviewer: He maintains you slapped him. Friedkin: I slapped a few actors. I didn't slap Grogu.

The entire Republican strategy is that Trump will do some new awful thing today, so they’ll never be questioned about this awful thing Trump just did. So they just need to play dumb for a few hours.

GitHub Copilot moves to token based billing on June 1, and its users have now got a calculator that shows how much they've been actually burning every month - some $39-a-month users have spent $1500 to $5800 in tokens a month. Microsoft's subsidies are insane. www.wheresyoured.at/premium-what...

The revolutionary new technology to ruin all your most special moments and turn everything into a weird stupid thing that solved a problem nobody had

speaking of underwater

We need a ban on stock trading by the President and Members of Congress. It’s bullshit that elected officials are getting rich off the backs of the American people while having access to insider information.

Stop calling the leisured provincial gentry "working class"

As a guy with half a trillion dollars, I have lots of options: 1. Enjoy a 100% stress-free life doing whatever I please in unfathomable luxury all over the world with people of my choosing 2. Have 87 meltdowns a day on a website

Even when it's an entire stadium booing them, the AI hucksters cannot wrap their heads around the fact that no one wants the shit they're selling.

Reading some James Bond books and I really think the movies don’t do the him justice. He should constantly be saying stuff like “I’m having an internal monologue about killing myself”

Voters be like “we hate every single idea Republicans have, we will only vote for them 65% of the time”

There's a major civil rights protest taking place in Selma, Alabama, right now in response to the SCOTUS decision that weakened the Voting Rights Act and the ongoing attack on Black Americans’ political power (video: defiancedispatch/IG)

Caught in a barb wire fence, twisted sideways, pants ripped down to my ankles. Outsmarted again by gophers. Suddenly, I see dust billowing up from the horizon. It’s a convoy of rental cars! Hundreds of national reporters are on their way to ask me about gas prices and woke

“I only drink out of a straw with my wife present.”

Joe: I am a 73 year-old retired mechanic in Forsberg, Nebraska. My 3 biggest problems are Iran's uranium enrichment capability, the casting of Helen in Christopher Nolan's "Odyssey," and the ability of Tennesseeans to check out "Roots" from a library 1000 media outlets: can we please talk at length

The guilt some people have around ebikes is really a shame. Just working with an older gent who is looking to electrify. His main concern was he didn't want others to judge him. I assured him that the only opinion that mattered about what was between his legs was his own. Why is this happening?

took a break from online today to inoculate a mushroom bed on the side of the house. some of you need to worry less about "my social networks" and more about "mycelial networks"

This arc should be in a (albeit kind of hands-off, loosey goosey) museum

If yesterday was the 41 anniversary of the MOVE bombing, today is the 4th anniversary of the Buffalo Tops Grocery Massacre, where 10 Black shoppers were executed by an 18yr white shooter. His federal trial is set for August of this year #ThePastIsNeverDead #ItsNotEvenPast

this is extremely funny because "too right wing" is the top answer and "too left wing" is the very bottom answer, like the exact thing that every single person said would happen.

Jon Stewart pushing this crap is exactly when I lost interest in him.

The integration of AI into writing classrooms should take heed on what's happening to programmers who use AI to "vibe code." These are people who already knew how to do the thing that's atrophying. Students don't have their writing practices set yet. www.404media.co/software-dev...

Well, I think Elon and Trump have been on the same flight logs before

I'm not as complete on my Swanboy Lore as I'd like to be, has it been established what sort of animal Jesus was in the Swanboy world?

What’s fun about both Fetterman and Bill Maher is that they vacillate between two modes: one of them is finding war and death and mockery and humiliation hilarious and the other mode is them going “why are you so cruel to me? Why can you not find decency in your heart towards me?”

I just pissed myself... this is the movie he is mad that people are calling slop... I demand you watch with the sound on... it is so much worse than you think it is going to be...

Raising children is wild. Just having an argument with a weird copy of yourself. It's like trying to onboard a new vibes only hire. "What are you doing?" "I didn't have treat at lunch" "but it's dinner time" "I want my lunch treat then dinner then dinner treat" "no, you've missed the window"

Loss doesn't even mention the castle doctrine

Does everyone know about Taskmaster? I feel like everyone doesn't know about Taskmaster. Anybody who doesn't know about Taskmaster: This is the best show, and there's a lot of it.

The dumbest people alive were mad that Zohran threw this woman under the bus lol

when u tax the rich

Mr Worldwide would go on to sing a duet with Dolly Parton 15 years after this post

Happy birthday to John Brown, who knew exactly how to handle the south’s “Peculiar Institution”

The more things change The more they stay the same.

People fly with a thing like this with a little vest that says "service animal"

Anyway, look at this weird little guy.

Utah is low-key GOATed when 41 year old grandmas is the vibe

The dumbest thing about this "we need to teach kids A.I. in school to prepare them for the future" shit is that, even if you believe that is necessary or good (it's not), the whole interface of LLMs is natural language. The only way to be "good" at using AI is to be good at... reading & writing.
