So I'm in the middle of a legal review of a Canadian government RFP for a client and came across this gem. If you're a US company and want to propose, fuck you, 20% off the top. Good on the Canadians. We pretty much deserve it.

You know, my YouTube suggested videos is pretty much perfectly on brand. Skinny Puppy, Ministry, Dungeons & Dragons and Magic the Gathering. lol

ahem....

Sour cherry bourbon smash and brisket mac and cheese! And a lovely breeze!

so, this is deeply, deeply horrifying thedreydossier.substack.com/p/i-found-a-...

Bari Weiss has succeeded in destroying 60 Minutes. It'll now be nothing more than a right wing propaganda outlet. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/28/b...

No. Fucking. Shit. www.businessinsider.com/uber-coo-and...

This really is the worst timeline ... www.theguardian.com/music/2026/m...

Article in the NYT this morning. lol

Just watched yesterday's Lunch Money with HCR & Paul Krugman, and learned that for every $1 of compute paid to an AI company, $3 to $25 more is subsidized by the AI company. This means, AT A MINIMUM, compute costs have to triple. And in many cases must increase much more than that.

@nytimes.com WHERE THE FUCK WERE YOU FOR THE PAST 9 YEARS? A little late dontchathink?

It just kills me the obscene salaries these AI companies are throwing around....

If this doesn't disgust you... it should. www.wired.com/story/i-work...

Great article. "ADHD" isn't a separate thing you either have or don’t have. It is a pattern shaped by who we are as people and that, in turn, shape the people we become. This is a more complicated story than “chemical imbalance” or “brain disease.” www.nytimes.com/2026/05/11/o...

This is heartening! www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...

Hey @tcgplayer.com this keeps happening to me and it is incredibly frustrating. I order like 60-75 cards from someone and they cancel the order because they "can't accept orders of this size". All they're doing is trying to make money on shipping. #mtg #magicthegathering

Americans are bound to obey the court’s rulings as a matter of law, but they are not obligated to respect or have confidence in an institution that does not respect them or the Constitution. trib.al/tktiyva

Huh. Well that's a thing. Though there's a LOT of AI use. :/ youtu.be/52riv3yPaAo?...

Fuuuuuck. Cloudflare just fired 20% of their workforce... Fuck AI right in its fucking face. blog.cloudflare.com/building-for...

Well that's a thing. A very good thing. :) www.tomshardware.com/tech-industr...

Mike is one of the smartest game theorists I know. You should take the time to read this.

burn it all down ... www.nytimes.com/2026/05/01/o...

Well. That's certainly a thing. abovethelaw.com/2026/04/only...

good tweet

*sigh* .... Do I really want to make myself angry today by reading this?

If this happens, everyone needs to cancel their Amazon accounts, full stop. These fuckers only care about money and that's the only way to hit them where it hurts. We should actually just burn it all to the ground buuuuut that is a starting point that avoids jailtime! www.wsj.com/business/med...

There was an AMA on Reddit today with the CEOs of five legal AI companies. I asked a question and the answer was glib - but still ridiculous. I really worry about my SaaS clients and all of the millions of people who work for SaaS companies.

Working at the DOJ used to be a prestigious job. Now - I'd be embarrassed to tell people that's where I work - and that my boss drafted this completely demented fucking document.

This is the kind of shit that right wingers are being fed. I mean, I hate christians as much as the next rational human, but hey, that's just me.

Good for them!

I wish folks were better shots.

Yes. The answer is yes. www.wired.com/story/palant...

Well that was certainly an interesting Magic: The Gathering YT video...

I've been wondering about this a lot lately. What happens when frontier AI companies need to become profitable and increase their token prices commensurately? What happens to all of those "AI First" startups who shed most of their human employees when all of their "AI workers" demand a 500% raise?

Ya know what would be awesome? If the entire press corps turned their backs to Rump and walked out.

People can’t pay their electric bill mortgage or medical bills. But spirit’s gonna get a fucking $500 million bail out because the president started a war.

This regime is pure evil. It cannot die soon enough. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Appropriate shirt for teaching my first AI class today.

Well damn. Got a big 2 hours of sleep again last night and I have to go teach at the convention center at 10. Joy.

Vegas view - same as it ever was. ;)

Updating the bit of my presentation about current AI litigation. lol

How long before someone launches a business to skin them with realdolls?
