I’m definitely getting old because I find it infuriating when I can’t hear the music in my headphones because somebody on the bus is blasting tik toks from their phone so loud it drowns it out

Hmmmm

A friend of mine is facing eviction this week unless a miracle happens. There isn't enough time to organize a fundraiser, so I'm sharing their Ko-fi in case anyone is able to help. Any support, no matter how small, could make a difference. ko-fi.com/JustWanya Please share WILDLY. NOW!

my stance has remained unchanged for 7 months

the most surreal thing about this era of open yelling about masculinity is that, if you grew up anything like I did, you were exposed to several sets of standards of masculinity and would be hard pressed to identify which of them the Paxtons and Millers of the world are living up to

Off to a decent start at the community garden here in DC - garlic scapes just starting to appear, tomatoes with plenty of blossoms, and I have three surviving pepper plants by the looks of it. Echinacea, as always, is invincible, and my blackberries are just starting to ripen. #gardening

This 1952 memo from the Pentagon UFO files is superb There is no point preparing for aliens ‘because no one of consequence is going to take this rubbish seriously unless it happens. At that point, our policy will be determined in the traditional manner of grand panic.’ 🤣 www.war.gov/medialink/uf...

lol, they gave Artemis II astronaut (and Philadelphia sports fan) Christina Koch an astronaut Gritty

is Weezer good? listen. that's irrelevant

The way things are right now I wouldn’t even blink if someone confirmed that all hyraxes are AI-generated, somehow even the ones I’ve seen at the zoo.

Another look at a fun DLC sized mod coming for Fallout 4 - Concord Stories! I even designed one of the plots featured in this trailer. youtu.be/TdsB3f-CI-4?...

I had a physical recently and the doctor did the cognitive test and I started laughing repeating the words back because I was thinking about Trump being so proud of herself and the doctor was like yeah everyone does that now.

@wmata.com You need to do something about the chaotic situation at bus stop 1001220 at Franklin Park. Regularly there is a line of D60 and D6X buses backed up there and the D24 drivers just drive right past and don’t stop or bother to pull over when there are people waiting. It happened again today!

I am dough-lighted to meet you! 🥐 This is Mr. Croissant- a Mr. Handy NPC you could have the pleasure of meeting in Concord Stories! You butter believe it! Crust me, he's fabulous😉 Designed by @captain-ultima.bsky.social and @greenFoxel.bsky.social 🥐

Tim Curry, the absolute legend, turns 80 today. This man took huge swings.

Quite a flex to turn up at the presidential palace, get him to confirm you as prime minister, call him unfit to serve with no moral authority, tell him to resign, and then pose for a picture

Maybe I’ll write about the Affordability Discourse one day but I think that one thing (among many both material and perceptual) that this hard to untangle is that everyone—including those who are doing fine in material terms—has a lot more visibility into how well the rich are doing than in the past

It’s profoundly ignorant to suggest that the Pope should be fighting crime on behalf of the Catholic Church. Anyone who was remotely familiar with Roman Catholicism would know that that’s what Daredevil is for

Everyone please welcome CBS News Immigration Analyst Viktor Orban.

New from 404 Media: the FBI was able to extract incoming Signal messages from a phone even though the app was deleted. Why? Because parts of messages were stored in the iPhone's internal notification database. Shows how secure chat data can come from unexpected places www.404media.co/fbi-extracts...

Happy Easter! Hope the Easter kaiju visits you all.

The worst part of April Fool’s Day is trying to do a crossword puzzle. Come on dudes, let me have my one zen moment during my lunch break.

I believe that there's only one way remaining to fix U.S. society. It's a drastic measure, but I can't see any way around it. We're going to have to ruin golf.

the actual DOGE

Great new trailer for Concord Stories - the new DLC sized mod for Fallout 4 that dramatically expands a feature of Sim Settlement 2. It’s full of new quests and content. I’ve done a little bit of work on this one and it’s really taking shape in an exciting way! youtu.be/60d_NWHrA64?...

Motherfuckers still saying “let that sink in” like we aren’t already living in the sewers under Atlantis.

i’m choosing to believe this is a 30 rock bit

i think the hardest i’ve ever made three people laugh was recording an AI-themed episode of sean’s podcast with him mattie and jaya and saying ‘sam altman more like crap fartman’

I often think about a specific scenario. If I could pick any Street Fighter 2 move that I could pull off in real life at any moment, which one would it be? Sure throwing fireballs would be great, but in the end I think i would have to go with E. Honda’s 100 hand slap. Why not throw all the hands?

Daredevil, For All Mankind, and Hacks all coming back in the next few weeks? We are eating good this spring.

Was just getting off a metro train and saw a whole train wrap for one of these AI slop shops advertising an AI product for Government IT called - no shit - steampunk. It had “punklife” on the train wrap too. Is nothing sacred to these buttnuts?

It’s a grand day in the Commonwealth! Concord Stories has a NEW TRAILER! Check it out and leave us a comment on what you’re most looking forward to seeing 💙 youtu.be/60d_NWHrA64?...

They ignored laws on federal records retention, falsely claimed to speak for "basically the White House" and told agency leaders to break the rules and allow lawsuits to ensue, all the while they said their jobs “felt more like a club." Read our deep dive: www.govexec.com/management/2...

Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now

girl the way I was in a dogmatic slumber

boilerplate poli-sci brain had me saying "so the president isn't in charge of the economy" all my adult life until boom, yeah, he just pressed the bad economy button. he pressed it on purpose. he loved pressing it. he's holding the button down.

I can't get over this number: in 2007, there were 360,000 newspaper jobs. Now, there are 80,000. "My local paper sucked!" Sure. What sucks even more? The void. "I get all my news from the Guardian!" No, the Guardian doesn't report on your town council, your school board, local cops.

every one of these guys is like: I'm a genius. you should do whatever i say about business, finance, research.... because i am so smart i have it all figure-- oh, jeffrey epstein? man that guy totally pulled the wool over my eyes. Is that what he was up to? wow.

I have been run out of Hollywood. simply for proposing “Heated Rivalry but with Ernest Hemingway and F. Scott Fitzgerald”

well i for one couldn’t be more excited for the possibilities of AI. finally a technology that answers the age old question ‘what if clippy was wormtongue’

Over the past two weeks I've begun to realize that rich people only started funding chatbots once they could no longer email Jeffrey Epstein

An interesting fact: D.C. has already received 18,000 individual tax returns and 300 corporate returns. The Republican resolution repealing the city's tax law passed the House today, and if it passes the Senate and is signed by the president, many of those returns will have to be redone.
