I’m really enjoying News Tower, this is fluke but fluke that tends to happen in good games: was thinking “not sure article quality is worth worrying about” (and have a good 20 hours in just kinda dumb) and like 45 seconds later unlocked the informational side thing where it gives you a nice bonus

Many older folks, too. My dad (near the end tbf) liked a Canadian horse ranch schmaltz show, literally made it to last episode a couple days before assisted suicide, I mentioned it to a friend and he was like dude that’s my daughter’s (~15 yo) favorite show

sequel should be called 6-10 Nights at Freddy's

Menzyne

This will be the only thing i post in support of Tim Poole but it was v cold in apartment today, threw a tuque on, and now, dinner handled, relaxing, I removed the tuque and damn my head got chilly immediately lol I put it back on

Hakeem Jeffries Calls For Execution Of Central Park Five

News tower challenge: no pneumatic tubes (can’t figure out how they work)

Magnus Hirschfeld, a gay Jewish socialist, was not an obscure figure, as much as his deliberate omission from our history curriculum would suggest otherwise. He was world-famous. Adolf Hitler himself publicly called Hirschfeld "The most dangerous Jew in Germany". He was pen-pals with Emma Goldman.

Beck is such a worm. Like almost unfair to other people I (fairly, imho) also describe as worms

Aside but while my main message to libs is “it’s not capitulation” when it comes to people in/adjacent to power, like they aren’t loyal to what you pretend they are loyal to (it’s elite solidarity, dorks) I do think Jeffries is a natural capitulator. he is there just to draw aggro.

You might think this in a c-suite people are dumb story but it’s more like they know the ai kinda-better be useful like even if it’s edge case stuff they can puff up that’s what the movers want to hear, like at least be ahead of the curve on it

The numbers in here are hilarious. Do you use AI on the job? Execs: 87% Managers: 57% Workers: 27% Planned investment by 2030: $5T "Necessary" annual revenue to justify that spend: $650B Current annual revenue: $50B

Mariota looking very spooked at sporadic times like just dodging ghosts

Maybe not YET

I always prefer explicitly biased commentary unless maybe it’s a huge match like the World Cup final or something like it adds a layer to proceedings

Uh oh. Maybe not a great time to have let the bastards get away with it filling their diapers about masks etc

I am not a fashion guy but a thing to avoid if you’re fucking with the tux (jd Vance) is you see fake versions of that at Halloween etc so WHATEVER you do don’t make it scan like that

The Republican Party has to do the rotating villain shit too and for Epstein a few heads are going to roll (they’ll end us better than fine just not politicians)

Look it doesn’t make sense big picture, but to Trump’s way of thinking Mamdani is popular and he’s trying to get that to rub off on him a little. I don’t think there’s a step 2 to the plan

an Epstein email aside is that sensitive stuff was on the phone or more secure accounts. (texts also oft. went to the phone oc, explicitly). Still not great infosec for v. bad activities, birthday book my god, but for v. sensitive stuff, maybe infosec great. He's dead, ya know!

🚨 BREAKING: More than ten people have been injured, including a child in critical condition, after an Israeli quadcopter drone dropped two small bombs on and around Al-Daraj School in Gaza City, the Gaza Civil Defense said in a statement Officials said one device was dropped at the school’s main...

a couple birthdays ago I went to a friend's gf's (and her fiance's) house they threw a mini party for me (had just moved in so it did kinda double duty as a housewarming thing) and I got pretty high and they made me play this super complicated nerd card game.

never forget how they reported on us

last TMBG post (maybe) but this is their best late capitalism song tidal.com/track/956129...

🙏 for John Dolan heal up king

*first date when you're almost 50* so when it comes to my life endgame TMBG soundtrack I think I'm mixing "The Statue Got Me High" and "Spiraling Shape", how about you?

insane unironic opinion but TMBG should go back and turn some of the song snippets in Fingertips from Apollo 18 into full songs

i will bet you 1 million dollars AI isnt allowed cause theyre gonna use it to train AI

‘No! Not Larry Summers!’ Wails Devastated Nation

Stev,, here is. The code fr, the dominion mchins. Lst wknd ws so much fun,, sex crimes etc, s. Ee. You in 3 wks, more sex. Crim

This shouldn’t sound as time-4-some-game-theory as it probably will but, for elites/israel/mi complex who wanted to keep USA+UK locked down?that spot wheee Mandelson landed is a great place to put an asset. Similarly, solid chance Dennis Hastert was a Rep leader because he was essentially owned.

The crisis of elite impunity that is ruining our society cannot be more clearly or convincingly demonstrated than with the fact that all of these people wrote all this stuff into an email and hit Send.

funny that Mandelson is first in a LONG list of people presumably doing awful shit

quote almost seems like she skimmed the birthday book for clues and this is her attempt to join the elite/“big club” by like trying to guess the password. “huh ok so they like raping 15 yos, so I’ll tell the doorman that… oh but first I should imply I have a chill friend who is already in the club”

the first time I wondered if we were cooked (and I was a lib at the time) is about the third time I saw when the cherrypicked anecdote floated to support a much-larger argument had, upon examination, an actual fact pattern of that anecdote that didn't hold up or worse

with the firings I think the Hegseth in-house generals thing was basically a loyalty test like who gave me the stinkeye or didn't smile when I by power rules basically told him too. This is based on the headline could be off. Could also have been orders to cut subordinates who weren't loyal.

the thing is with fascism is that our "ashes" in a spiritual and material sense is heart-pure and accurate BUT, from a Trump perspective: there are still people and those who 'matter' (and many who don't) are forced to like/reward/etc. him until he dies. after that who cares. that's maybe his math

spiritually the Broncos and the Jets have been similar teams for most years in recent decade, maybe 2 decades, so easy joint-fandom for me. Good-usually defense and unreliable-at-best offense. Such an ugly win for Broncos over Raiders

For some reason the media is not mentioning that the reason GTA6 is being delayed is they fired 40 staff over threats of unionization and now the rest of their staff are revolting

Just for the obvious decode: we can't have elections, or at least remotely fair elections, in 2026. Muscle will be a factor

turn on comments you NYT cowards lol (not a subscriber but want to take the lib temperature and this is the quick road)

if you had some genie wish early 2000s and you wanted to peaceably derail Musk's financial climb for some reason you could do a lot worse than wish that he insisted on being spokesperson for his companies. And yet

Not a mutually exclusive take but I think most cooked mainstream reporting I've seen can be summarized in the main as careerism under increasingly capital-mandated conditions.

get ready to see a lot of capital media littered with "overreach" and how a "backlash" is not just inevitable, but justified

Just started Slow Horses based on people I follow's posts, premise is v goofy (senior MI5 spooks risking careers with off-book ops against right-wingers, uh no lol) but along for the ride

just....enjoy this

the point of the ballroom obvs has nothing to do with aesthetics. it's to create an architectural structure to honor the patronage networks that currently dominate US politics. previous WH venues hosted maybe a couple of hundred people; this hosts nearly 1,000 rich donors.
