someone hit my parked car and scraped it up three weeks before i have to trade it in for a new one and i already had a trade-in offer accepted. fucking awesome

ChatBBT find me a scary soundin bug i can use to hop onto the CVE train we had this week and generate 7000 words about it

to little surprise, "Tailscale oh no no no no no" turns out to be...uh. well, you can read it yourself. this is an axe-grinding exercise that uses confident-sounding slop as camouflage.

I Did the Absolute Bare Fucking Minimum For Overall Harm Reduction and Incremental Progress Instead of Succumbing to Despair, or Worse, Apathy

another thing AI has made worse: software updates. between constant security vulnerabilities and just the sheer speed with which companies are trying to ship software via AI, there are so many fucking software updates now. why did i have to update VSCode TWICE in ONE DAY

ME: AI is a project by the tech oligarchy to deskill and devalue labor while enriching themselves even more “what? but it’s no different than any other form of automation like assembly lines or factories” ME: you’re so close to getting it

github continues to be a thought leader in proving when things are bad. browsers tend to cache favicons, which makes dynamic favicons bad. one piece of jank and now my notifications tab is stuck looking like i'm viewing a PR with a broken build

tbf, even the eShop on Nintendo Switch feels unusable if you leave the featured section. want to see recent releases? be prepared to wade through a sea of hentai slop puzzle games

I know folks are saying that it is now untenable that we have 8000+ games in Steam Fest and tons of Ai slop. We can also be honest and say that lots of games before this era weren’t of quality and Valve should have been pruning this in a real way anyway.

i’ve watched “Over the Garden Wall” at least once a year since it came out in 2014 and somehow never realized it’s a retelling of Dante’s Inferno

call me old fashioned, but i think putting hundreds of liters of highly pressurized cold nitrogen gas on a car in a world where cars regularly crash is maybe not the best idea

i’m being told “you’re not a rocket scientist, so what do you know” which is technically true

Popeyes clears Chick-fil-A any day (but especially Sunday) and, as far as i can tell, they have no history of donating to causes that strip away our rights. there is no good reason to go to Chick-fil-A. the food sucks and i think you're worsening yourself if you compromise your morals for it.

if AOC doesn’t run for president, Jaime West should

Trust me: whatever you’re doing right now is less important than watching this candidate interview. No spoilers, just trust:

a LOT of people need to hear this even thought it won't get through to many.

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.

I am normal, I don't hang out with platforms and people that sell child porn. That's who I was ten years ago; that's who I've stayed. That's *the big things*. It is the people who have stayed on Twitter who have changed, and who have not realized it. They embrace the dumpster fire, and can't see it.

My kid has started a Letterboxd list called Killer Sweaters for films where the killer wears a great sweater and they've asked me to throw it out to Bluesky for more because "that's the kind of thing those weirdos like to do"

What can you say? This was the definite winner they will never top. Also one of the best things I've seen at any PRGE #PRGE #PRGE2026

as if i’d let that happen

The estimated lifespan of the outer solar system has been downgraded from 100 billion years to just a few billion years, according to a study that probed “terminal instability” during the Sun’s death. www.404media.co/our-solar-sy...

you think *you’re* unobservant? i never noticed the missing raspberry on the cake in the Great British Bake Off intro. i pnly found out about it online recently

just popped a sungold tomato into my mouth that was so good i stopped in my tracks and said “holy fuck” out loud

there’s an old guy on this flight just raw dogging it? no luggage, just a single magazine rolled up with a clipped up newspaper 📍Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport / Saint Paul / MN
