I'm tired of people who feel threatened by the DSA controlling the discourse about it, because even though I'm not a member, I can recognize that the DSA's good for all of us and for the Democratic Party

Now that you've seen years of "AI exec says within 5 years everyone will be using AI" you're ready for the next week of "political operative says constituency they specialize in is at risk of not turning out"

This ad is bizarre and laughable to run when Americans have real concerns before an election, but I think that’s exactly why they’re running it. They’re terrified that the base is going to stay home and they’re panicking and trying to mash the old buttons to prevent that.

every fan of an AL team should be experiencing secondhand shame that this is the best team their league produced. you should all feel like Lord Toranaga when Tadayoshi spoke out of turn at the Council of Regents

What if the top of the 5th never ends?

It’s flashing red under there and you gotta hit it three times to end the boss fight

Boy it’s really weird to have a fire in your building and have the fire department be like “you’re fine, just keep making dinner”

That’s what speed do

You can’t give the other team extra outs and you absolutely can’t be burning your outs on the basepaths like that, man

I’m gonna be real here, I don’t think inviting members of CENTCOM to your must-win game is sending the message that the Rays think it is. What are you gonna do, waste all the baseballs for the rest of the league?

It’s so Rays to introduce the starting pitcher in the World Series against a backdrop of an all you can eat buffet

Who do I give to to get this in front of as many Michigan voters as possible?

*dying in the street* is it curtains for Zoosha?

I’ve seen enough. We here at Lund Election Projections consider this house flipped.

A fun fact about elevators: it’s always 2% (or 0%) of total hard costs. Developers scale the number of elevators they buy to meet this number. Developing a six-unit apartment building? In Switzerland the elevator is like $50k so it fits within the 2% and they include it. In the US it’s $175,000…

The Minnesota Vikings have won all their games. Additionally, they have lost none of their games. All 31 other teams in the NFL have lost at least one of their games. However, we still must ask: Are the Minnesota Vikings good at football?

whether you're covering cornball orgies in dimes square or silicon valley, i read hunter s thompson i loved hunter s thompson and you sir are no hunter s thompson

also kind of funny that it going YOLO with chatbots and image generators in 2022 appears to be extremely stupid, business-wise. that kind of shit is like two-thirds of why people hate AI, and it turns out to be unnecessary

This is the way

My pal Danielle Koenig shared that her father Walter Koenig passed away last night at age 90. A performer whose kindness and warmth shone through the screen. He will be well remembered.

saw this photo on my feed last night and this morning thought surely that was a dream lol why would that photo exist lmao and yet here we are

i don't think it's that crazy it's a lot harder to use public money to build a complicated interconnected grid of rail infrastructure than it is to use private money to build a bunch of big warehouses. like i don't think it's great only one of those is possible but what i do not think it is is crazy

The wins column says that the Vikings are now the best team in football, and I think that’s a sign we need to rethink the usefulness of wins as a statistic

Idea: Austin Powers reboot where a 90’s guy with a butt-cut is unfrozen and learns about PrEP
