Things are bad, here’s a good snake we saw on a walk earlier today.

“What will Vance be up to in like six years” is sort of an interesting exercise

I was complaining about NBA replay but sure MLB also bad, who is all this for

"how did the likely serial rapist become president" is going to be a challenging question for future historians but so is "how did the likely serial rapist with obvious dementia remain president"

This is a tragic and infuriating story and also the argument "our newer model doesn't do that anymore" is hilariously bad, if my company made four versions of a microwave that burned down multiple houses I'm not sure we would have been allowed to make the 5th. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/27/w...

This time we’re a week in, but TWolves-Cavs overtime has offered the season’s first chance to once again ask why the league would not do this obvious thing to make the game better

Pretty funny how he ignored the Saddam Hussein part of the joke

My second-hand impression of the Anthropic IPO filing is that basically says "we lose a country GDP's worth of money, we rely heavily on other tech companies to even exist, our tech may destroy the world in [86 pages of possibilities], we are worth 100 trillion dollars"

Beyond disgusted by even more rape allegations against the President of the United States. "In total, more than 25 different women...have independently accused Donald Trump of rape, sexual assault, or other sexual misconduct." Report w/ new details: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

The GOP closing message appears to be "extremely sweaty racism"

Just so many ways these things are offering people a distorted view of the world

cool cool

Pretty sure the bulk of it doesn’t really get fixed until the five or so way too rich people we can all name have all their stuff broken up and taken away

Brazil’s results tonight are a big endorsement for the idea that every country should have a second “are you you sure about that” election a couple weeks after the first one for the important stuff

-huh that’s weird, I’ll just blow out this candle and we can— -No, don’t… I WANT him to watch.

I live in a rural town and, like, I don't know how to tell you this, but the girls play on the boys team and vice versa all the time because otherwise we don't have enough players for a game and it's literally always fine so stop being weirdos about kids sports and just let trans kids play.

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Brazil President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva wins fourth term, according to electoral court.

One question I have is whether he sort of triangulated his way to the specific gutter racism takes that the rest of his party will tolerate or if he had the takes and the party triangulated their own extremely tenuous grasp on “civility” in order to endorse those takes

Good evening

My most naive take is that it’s weird how many awful people there are and how many things they’re in charge of

Okay obv bad but also lol at Khanna accounting for 41% of ALL House member trades

lol www.nytimes.com/2026/10/24/c...

My extremely niche and annoying complaint is that Shudder should function in the week before Halloween

I know we do this like twice a day but this alone is among the most impeachable shit imaginable

On the one hand I don’t want to get excited about any individual red state polling numbers and just kinda have to see it happen, but on the other hand… that’s quite a few exciting red state polls

Cool, that seems like a thing that a functional society should allow
