Oh look, it's those paid protesters we've been hearing about.

Huge follow-up reporting to my scoop: The Guardian confirmed America Next—the conservative nonprofit founded by Bobby Jindal that was offering students $ to disrupt El-Sayed events—paid a firm registered to Tommy Teepell’s dad Timmy $250k for “canvassing and influencer marketing” against El-Sayed.

No matter where you shop, you're getting screwed by Amazon. Amazon has found a way to make everything you buy - at Target, at a mom-and-pop shop, even direct from the manufacturer - more expensive. And they're not the only one: Expedia's done the same thing, but for hotel rooms.

One of these leaders is always dressed for success, especially when standing next to authorities.🔥🔥🔥

It does appear the "data center eliminated Nazi and otherwise fuckface bots" narrative is basically wishcasting, it does show you how popular getting rid of this shit would broadly be, and that maybe a smart person should run on it.

Y’all, I hate to rain on the dead bot parade, but the Yandex data center destruction doesn’t seem to have significantly impacted social media bots. I made temporal graphs of X posts about AfD around the time of the attack and there’s no sign of a sudden dip or residual impact on that conversation.

You know, the thing is, I had drafted this piece a month ago, and then never published it, because I thought maybe it was too mean.

Just saw someone say their AI runs their fantasy football team and I can’t stop laughing. Like, I’m sure everyone’s doing it or something but it’s very funny to me that pretending to be a team manager was so hard that you needed to pretend to pretend to be a team manager

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

Started a project too late in the day and now I’m halfway through and want to pack it in for the night. Unfortunately step one of this project was to take 100+ graphic tees out of my closet and put them on my bed, so I guess I’m committed to seeing this through.

peter thiel is another one of those guys who we are supposed to think is brilliant but every time he opens his mouth my first thought is “this guy sounds like an idiot”

I have a confession to make. The townhomes I & others spent most of a decade trying to legalize are popping up all over Oregon & elsewhere...and I love that...but they're a problem in one big way. (get ready for a twisty thread about the housing report @sightline.org just published)

Yesterday was a good day for nosy bitches*. Nova Scotia Sunshine lists are out! *It’s me. I’m nosy bitches.

The full trailer for You Can See Everything is out today. And my first thought is that it should be required that Nathan Fielder film for 48 hrs at every tech CEO’s home.

I was fully remote for six years until a return to office 3 days a week this year. I'd love to NOT be contributing to this traffic.

Just....you know...absolutely one of the worse traffic mornings I've seen since I started working here There's no way around any of this. Work from home if you can #HFXTraffic

One day America will debate removing “The Trump White House and Casino™️” sign but decide they can’t “erase history.” This will be a crushing blow to Pam Lewis of Ames, Iowa who wanted the mandatory Trump statue removed from her master bedroom and everyone born after 2027 bothered by the tattoo.

"Administration officials are circulating a list of government sites that could have Trump’s name affixed to them... One landmark that has emerged in the discussions among administration officials has raised eyebrows: Ford’s Theatre, the playhouse where Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in 1865."

On Aug. 4 I reported the signage issue on Morris St. Over 6 weeks later it still hasn’t been corrected. Part of the reason people are losing faith in institutions and government is because of stuff like this. @lecwhite.bsky.social, not sure you have a way to nudge this?

Anecdotal, but I found it easier to find parking when I was downtown this Saturday. Big fan of paid! I was a bit surprised they left the 2-hr spots on Queen between Spring Garden & Morris as M-F, rather than extending to M-Sat. It's right in the middle of Zone C. Maybe @lecwhite.bsky.social knows?
