"Why don't you go to the bathroom in more survival games?" is a joke that came up during our podcast over the summer. I reached out to developers about it, and their answers were complicated and fascinating, from spiraling design issues to the deeper meaning behind where to put the toilet

1. Not sure when a new, on-the-record rape allegation against a sitting president isn’t considered news — especially considering Trump was found liable by a jury in a similar case — but it was ignored by most mainstream media outlets

i am inviting anyone from a legacy media organization to explain to me why the house judiciary dems report on trump’s epstein’s ties and multiple allegations of rape isn’t worthy of extensively reporting on. i’m serious. i want to understand.

WWE shouldn’t get credit if they eventually do move the show by the way. They’re just playing chicken financially, they’re still putting everyone in the company at risk.

Fucking pussies, either put up or shut up. They can't punish everyone that doesn't want to head into an active war zone but you're too gutless to stand up for yourselves.

Coming Friday on the @btsheetspod.bsky.social Patreon: Not only do we continue our WWECW series by watching EXTREME STRIP POKER so you don't have to, but we discuss the time Paul Heyman told Vince McMahon that Eric Bischoff was coked up during a meeting because he watched too much Growing Pains.

Oh, OK, a slight correction. The NYT does have a PDF available. It's not at all in the actual report, however, and they hide it where they do post it:

Jacob Burroughs@maths22.com

Not that it's ideal, but at the bottom of the page of pictures they have a "Download the original document (pdf)" link that links to the PDF hosted on their servers

Contrast that with @rparloff.bsky.social (and many others) who, you know, just posted the link. (I reposted Roger this morning when the decision came out.)

Judge Furman rules that Maureen Comey's firing violated separation of powers. Orders backpay. Govt's arguments violate 2 centuries of SCOTUS rulings & would "unsettle the equilibrium established by this Nation's constitutional system." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The NYT — having been shamed for years for not posting court opinions — now does so, but only with its enraging workaround of posting a link to a page that has individual images of each page of any opinion. So, here, you load a page of 55 images that are completely unworkable for any future use.

NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

We need to give more respect to Lizzy Flanagan's December 2021 "I forgot that peacock doesn’t let you screen record and accidentally got the most cursed audio of Gargano vs Ciampa of all time. NSFW warning lmao" tweet. "That the best you got? That the best you got, daddy, huh?"

The wildest one of these I got was a three PDF "press release" rollout from someone who said his ChatGPT sometimes got something wrong and that OpenAI didn't respond to his support ticket and fashioned himself as a kind of big tech whistleblower

this is happening because big tech customer support basically doesn't exist and desperate people are asking ChatGPT what to do. ChatGPT is sending them to journalists

David BASTARDspan reposted

In the last few weeks i've been bombarded with emails from people who have minor tech support problems. ChatGPT is telling them to email me, writing their emails, and compiling "evidence packets" after convincing them they have stumbled on a major story: www.404media.co/chatgpt-keep...

Congrats to Lula on overcoming Mark Zuckerberg and Donald Trump to defeat Hospital Pervert Jr., even as his opposition literally blocked off roads and turned off bus service during election day. Fascists are scary but they are always, 100% of the time, ultimately gigantic fucking losers.

David BASTARDspan reposted

Lula winning is great for the planet, great for Brazil, and great for people who aren't revanchist assholes everywhere in the world, but let's not forget that it's also going to make some of the worst people on Earth extremely sad and mad. We should enjoy that, as a little treat.

So I don't think there has been an official announcement of this but it looks like MyAEW is officially airing CMLL's Saturday Arena Coliseo show for free as part of the MyAEW subscription. Its been airing live every Saturday since the 10th for no extra charge.
