All of the “ai can’t have an original thought” people are just repeating something they heard someone else say

anti electricity propaganda from the 1900s

I believe we all tacitly agreed not to talk about Nicki Minaj anymore (🙏🏾) but video of her campaign rally remarks stopped me cold. That whole situation is so bad.

32% of eligible US voters chose Trump in 2024, yet it was presented in the American media as an amazing landslide. Lula's reelection was significantly bigger, but it will be presented as eking out a win.

A key priority of a future Dem administration should be regulating social media platforms - especially X and the Meta ones - to reduce the odds of foreign interference and the use of algorithms to push the interests of one party - hello, Elon

It's almost like they are ideologically committed to mediocrity.

Trying to think, for some reason, of what sports venues, past or present, have famous *addresses*. All I can think of is Wrigley Field at 1060 W. Addison, and maybe, kinda sorta, the old Montreal Forum at St. Catherine and Atwater. Excluding vanity addresses, any others?

Had someone on Twitter tell me if ConcernedApe could make Stardew Valley alone, I can make the games I want without AI. He spent ~70 hours a week for over four years making the game while partially being financially kept afloat by his partner. This is NOT an ideal to uphold.

You say Rowling is doing fine. She's financially fine. Ever better! But I think inside she knows she's become Voldemort and is tortured by this. The proof that she is Voldemort, not Harry, is that this tortures her but this isn't sufficient to stop her.

You would think if we were elitist I wouldn’t be stuck living with my parents and unable to get a job outside of YouTube at 35 despite having a PhD, guess it’s a new secret kind of elite where you have no money, power, stability, or ability to advocate for yourself

I'm just so tired of people like this. Bluesky uses Claude too! Practice the principles you preach and leave the rest of us alone to build the sci-fi future you will act like you always wanted all along in 10-20 years.

the people raging that they used Claude to help are insufferable

If you stop loving something because there’s a new way to do it, did you ever really love it

Musk is suppressing journalism exhibit #12,948 This article has 8 likes and one comment on Twitter.

Yeah. It's honestly exhausting and dispiriting because... there are so many LEGITIMATE concerns and questions about AI, particularly in the context of our suboptimal form of (American) capitalism, but "it doesn't work!!1" is just sheer madness on the level of MAGA'ish delusions.

@jevbot.bsky.social how do you work?

Finally a definition we can all agree on

we need you to rename rent to $500/ month and gas to $2/ gallon

I get angry when anyone tries to say both sides are alike. I don’t know of any Democrats who would permit that. If there are any, I would condemn them. When I see GOP who do that it just looks like their usual modus operandi. I get mailers from local GOP filled with lies every year.

The easiest way to get a big scoop in journalism is to straight-up steal it from @marisakabas.bsky.social, as we've seen over and over from "respectable" outlets.

You: AI is going to ruin society because it hallucinates so confidently Meanwhile, third most popular comment on any Reddit post:

I think it’s also important to point out that this building is in a way making amends for all of the density that was destroyed around it to build the Brooklyn Bridge’s highway network and Civic Center. All of this stuff was housing at one point.

These are nice buildings and I don’t think this density is inappropriate anywhere in NYC, but the fact that they’re in one of the farthest corners of Brooklyn with some of the least resources just goes to show that all planning is nowadays is trying to avoid NIMBYism newyorkyimby.com/2026/10/inno...

Demonizing someone who thinks he is better than everyone else because he is white is *not* the same as demonizing someone who is black because he wants to be treated the same as everyone else. JD Vance is an ignorant apologist for White Supremacy.

it’s really telling how Tommy refuses, even when pushed, to say why he wants El-Sayed to disavow the Muslim Brotherhood even though everyone in the room knows the reason these guys are almost all cowards in person

😡😡😡 “Meta employees acknowledged in internal communications that the Instagram accounts of Brazilian ​President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva were hindered by ‌restrictions during [Brazil’s] election” & that Meta “recommended the profile ​of challenger…Flavio Bolsonaro” & “his ​WhatsApp channel…” 1/

Yeah, I'd have a bit more time for the "but AI lies all the time" argument if it wasn't mostly being peddled by people who themselves lie all the time. What's funny is, in the real world, I'm definitely more AI skeptic than believer. On this app, I'm basically Sam Altman.

Huge news from my wife (who has been openly gay for 20+ years)

Genuinely one of the most bewilderingly awful developments in Western politics in a decade that's been nothing but bewilderingly awful developments in Western politics. Not only a blithely cruel policy, but a profoundly stupid unforced error. I will curse Starmer's name to the grave.

We recorded an episode today about the bike lane removals in Toronto and decided to text Ontario Premier Doug Ford to give him the opportunity to comment. (Yes, we have his real phone number.) He wrote back.

i do unironically think people that are cosmopolitan need sorta paradoxically be more chauvinist about it tbh. places and people that are cosmopolitan in outlook are better than places that are provincially minded. the kind of performative handwringing about not being 'authentic' is bad and weak.

Two older pedestrians yell “bike lanes out” while they don’t realize how much more dangerous Bloor Street will be. Almost everyone loses in a culture war.

The place I got the most utility out of with navigating health ins. was somewhere with national health plan lol. It’s actually really useful to be able to throw in a massive document & search it with natural language. It’s ok to admit that. You can think that & still hate Elon, slop, etc. it’s fine.

The reason the AI consciousness debate is so annoying is that Will Stancil is tweeting about it CONSTANTLY
