A Nice Sweater

I love the idea of answering this question with “not sure” Should we a kill a man on live television? Hard to say, depends on the day.

Deciding Herb had bad vibes and I hated him over a decade ago is paying off nicely.

I guess kash has been getting Into the really weird anime.

The worst thing about FSU is they don’t respect my time. They're gonna lose, but they’re gonna take forever to do it and try to convince me they won’t. Just get blown out so I can go to bed.

I started the day by seeing someone say that we should combat misogyny by teaching girls to kill without remorse and closing the day by seeing people genuinely angry over the term “spreadsheet people”. It’s been a good day on bluesky.

If you reply to this talking about how wild and cool it was you are, as the kids apparently say, chopped unc.

I woils think that inflation consistently outpacing wage growth for like 70 years would be an important factor here, but what do I know? Maybe people just love shitty stuff.

That skubal trade is finna be someone’s thirteenth reason.

Hi I’m Sophie Cunningham and Diversity and Inclusion is when I get to advocate about who I think should be excluded from sports. I am very smart.

While you were out partying (rooting for the US in the World Cup) I was studying the blade (rooting for the Mets)

Brendan Sorsby, a story in four parts.

1) Ones use or lack of use of these conventions has no relationship to the quality of their writing. LLMs use of them is notable because it uses them in bad, sloppy ways. 2) We didn’t use to have the word for it, but part of why AI makes slop is because people have spent decades making it before.

There’s a lot that can be said here as explanation, but what’s the point? Data centers suck. if they do what they are supposed to, which they won’t, they’d still suck. I don’t care why people think they suck, them hating the things is all I ask.

Deeply funny that as soon as it calls him smart he’s like “ah, the perfect woman”

Being mainline protestant is sick cause evangelicals think you‘re an enemy of God and everyone else thinks youre evangelical.

Art of the Deal baby.

An AI being like “who would trump probably heal? Jeffery Epstein.” Is so funny. Even funnier is Trumps brain being so addled at this point that he didn’t notice that the second most prominent guy in this picture looks like Jeffery Epstein.

Maybe he shat his pants again.

Look, I’m not gonna tell anyone they can’t love their racist Grandpa. But maybe don’t use that to make larger point about people changing, and definitely don’t include a photo of them wearing the imperial eagle.

It’s December 2026. You’re stuck waiting to pickup your friend at the airport who has been delayed for 6 hours because an ICE agent shot a fast food worker in the airport they flew out of. You want to drive back home, but gas is 10 dollars a gallon.

This is a bad article with a silly premise. But it’s also worth noting that fascism doesn’t play by rules. I don’t think he will, but if Trump began having ICE arrest democratic politicians on confabulated charges, who or what would actually stop him?

When you think about it, everything is either fish or it’s not.

My hot take is that if the op/ed page has to both sides even the shittiest of policy, the op/ed page shouldn’t exist.

Saying that hating democrats because you think they are corporate shills or don’t adequately oppose Republicans and hating democrats for being socialists who hate America because they passed ACA is “essentially the same terms” is certainly an interesting theory.

I’m a results guy, so if this works then I‘ll take it. But Im not sure we should really be assuming people who need to be sold on “the secret police are so bad they can’t be reformed” are really on our side.

This is honestly the bare minimum of what sort energy public figures against this new wave of fascism need to be bringing.

Will Stancil accusing people of not knowing basic terms or reading to learn is pretty funny considering how badly he gets owned when he tries to debate communists and doesn’t know what any of the words they use mean cause he categorically refuses to learn.

Reporting this like it represents a real gesture towards good faith debate is ghoulish. The issue he wanted to debate was gonna be some race science bullshit. I have no interest in dancing on his grave, but to sanctify this man as some paragon of freedom is fucking crazy.

Dabo is correct, I never believed in Clemson.

This has to be the dumbest motherfucker in the world. A generationally terrible post.

It's so funny that we have this game that is largely about beating the shit out of each other and then we have a bunch of random things that are punished with expulsions. Like, I get why you can't spit on someone, but kicking a guy out of the murder ball game for it seems a little silly.

The performative cruelty of Garcias deportation is what gets to me. They admitted he was deported by accident, but won’t undo it or let it go. They want to turn this country into an ethno-state and they are punishing and cracking down on anyone who resists that, even passively.

My hot take about ASOIF is that fans anxiety about it not getting finished is an indirect consequence of Disney spending the past century trying to murder the public domain and in the process warping our ideas about the relationship between artists, art, and fans.

My hot take is that 69% is doing great on something like this. Only 76% percent of people are sure that the earth is globe. There are simply too many stupid people for your numbers on these to get much higher than that.

If the Epstein thing does prove to finally be the thing Trump can’t bullshit his way out of, that will restore some modicum of hope to me.

He ain’t anything close to perfect, but he gets it.

Chat, is it good when my explanation about writing the story from last week has to include a paragraph about the historical importance of journalism?

Why are they in camo? Because in their heart of hearts, even while being the pointy end of the next holocaust, these nerds are still LARPing.

I'm not queer or Palestinian, so I can't know for sure, but I don't think that "be straight or die" and "Catch this airstrike, bro" would feel the same to me. I think I'd feel like one of those is preferable to the other.

I’m torn between thinking the treats part is a little wild and the absolute certainty that if a girl did this for me I would think she was perfect. That certainly says something about me.

Chat, is that good?

Fool me once? Shame on you. Fool me twice? That’s pretty fucked up that you would fool me again while I’m still reeling from the first time you fooled me.

It’s so deeply funny that one of the most effective things democrats to work against Trump is literally talk for 25 hours so no one can get anything done.

Morgan Wallen is the ur-pop country star. He makes awful, boring, and often insipid music. His albums are bloated beyond belief and he appears to be a robot that days y’all-isms. He is profoundly boring. But he’s hot and has some mild white guy swag so he will be huge for the next 40 years.

Assault on elites? What the fuck are you talking about?

The coolest part of capitalism is that you can just make everyone’s lives so financially tenuous that people are ready to riot over the price of eggs, meanwhile the gov trying to deport green card holders and that just inspires posts.

Putting down the pen and looking down at my 20 step plan to save the democrats and all the steps just say “become republicans”
