Obviously the real takeaway here (video not paywalled) is that AI continues to be the most ridiculous and expensive waste of time imaginable. But, also if you look close enough, Borjomi mineral water makes a brief cameo! And, that's what's most important to me.

I would really like to find these Americans who are *happy* with their current private insurance. I have yet to meet one in the wild.

Great fun from @lizcookkc.bsky.social "You do not have to order the Heinz ketchup flight. You do not have to buy the Taylor Swift cocktail that tastes like a candle and is garnished with a flaming Brillo pad. You do not have to sacrifice your servers’ eyebrows at the altar of the tableside flambé"

Not sure what else people need to see.

"Please stop blowing up our ships and making the Ukrainians blow up your ships near us. Everything else is fine."

A rule change on the NWSL salary cap is imminent from the NWSL board of governors that could help pay top players like Trinity Rodman. No new contract yet though — and Congress has taken interest, too 👀 New at @theathletic.com www.nytimes.com/athletic/688...

The biggest soccer news of the day today is that the @theguardian.com ranked Rose Lavelle all the way down at 67th in the top 100 women footballers. The only explanation is this a 6-7 gag cooked up by a GenZer to troll me specifically.

He saw the trophy.

Excited to dust off my whale oil hunting vessel. Sure, slaughtering whales for lamp oil is needlessly cruel and stupidly inefficient by modern standards. But, it was taken away from me, and that was wrong.

sorry not sorry

The NWSL has finally gotten its million-viewer match. Saturday’s championship game garnered 1.184 million viewers, the most watched game in league history

*I'M* not searching for Ally Schlegel to Gotham news every two minutes, *YOU* are.

Come to Gotham! We want to be Schlegged!

Just say the 14 words already

Damnit, I previously had no reason to tune into the Manningcast after turning it off 3 min in on my first try, but,

For all of the copyright strikes that happen to modern day creators and even institutional ones of years past, I ... just ... do not ... understand this world.

Look, I'm a big fan of the incoming NYC mayor, but ... until then how about Mayor Lavelle?

This is my new favorite meme format

These facts are VERY FUN!!

Don't stand up and cheer all at once

I wonder who has been in charge of the House for the last 3 years?

This is literally just the same cycle over and over

Definitely have not watched this 48 times

That fact that you're not 100% sure if this is satire or not speaks volumes.

This is *depraved* -- glamor shots & an exculpatory feature for a woman who shit on the key central tenets of journalism, repeatedly. NYT is celebrating elite freedom from accountability. Actively celebrating it. You wouldn't put this in a satire, it's too ham-handed!

The article continues: "This equates to every iPhone owner in the world paying an extra $35 or so a month for products and subscriptions, according to the JPMorgan analysts." Seriously, who wants this?

It is crazy that there is no testing or licensing regime for these things, dozens of deaths later. A drug which had such serious mental side effects would have been withdrawn instantly

Mike's Greyhound odyssey is well worth the read. Had me cackling all morning.

Honestly, Ray Ban should really think about this collaboration once it sinks into the public consciousness that any dude wearing black ray bans may be a weirdo actively violating your privacy.

On Armistice Day, I think about this recreated soundscape of the moment the guns fell silent on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918. A testament to the arbitrariness of war as much as anything else www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/l...

I mean sure. Just keep your hands off of my Steve Spagnuolo

At some point I might just write “what if everybody is wrong?” because there is a chance I believe nobody bothered to work out if any of this would make a profit or, indeed, whether you’d be able to power the data centers themselves

Inspiring stuff guys. For a second there I didn't think you had the mettle to stand up to authoritarianism

FYI

Btw, GFC LFG

all of this is also true for sexism. you tell me you think women are biologically less smart and i’ll suspect that i could probably convince you to drink your own piss

bring back maligning racism as the mark of a stupid person. prejudice is the mark of an idiot. if you believe that shit i bet you also don’t wipe your ass

Wall Street votes for communism, etc. etc.

Mamdani cracks 1M votes, the first NYC mayor to do so since John Lindsay in 1969

Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

VP Cheney will be honoured with a 21 gun salute accidentally aimed directly at 21 of his friends
