there is a real thing happening here where rich people are privileged enough to disengage from tech as a whole while letting assistants and their retinue handle it, but that’s not what they’re actually talking about here, and they are intentionally conflating it with AI refusal to make people mad

I like the idea that when a team fires their GM you start proposing a bunch of trades to the interim GM like you’re targeting the backup cornerback when the starter gets hurt

Trade: The Colts are sending eight-time Pro-Bowl guard Quenton Nelson to the Seahawks, per Adam Schefter and me. Nelson is on an expiring contract and the Colts get back draft capital now before they could lose him in free agency. A Colts legend goes to the champs.

Feels like a metaphor for Elon Musk

In July, an incensed Elon Musk vowed that Grok Imagine would produce a "full-length" and "historically accurate" adaptation of Homer's Odyssey to put Christopher Nolan's woke version to shame. Three months later, we got seven minutes of slop that Grok itself admits is not historically accurate.

This video had Pat McAfee thinking he would be assassinated like Charlie Kirk. This is 100% true

this is what pat mcafee is big mad over lol

This has been a valuable game. McKee is not playing behind an OLine that has him running for his life every snap. He is getting time in the pocket, and he's facing one of the league's worst defenses. He simply sucks.

I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

love that the core conservative principle these days is “people shouldn’t be allowed to dislike me without consequences”

Pat McAfee (after a teenager yells “Punter!” at him during GameDay): So this is what MLK felt like walking the Edmund Pettus Bridge

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.

phenomenal news out of Serbia here’s hoping Brazil can keep their own strongman out despite blatant election interference

Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted

ELIZABETH: I’m not really familiar with the Sugondese people either. NATHAN: Okay. BILLY: I hear you Nathan, and your line of questioning is valid. But I think what she’s too nice to say is that if the Sugondese won’t assimilate with our culture, they shouldn’t be allowed in our country.

thinking fondly again of the college girl at the donut place, who made a little muslim boy bounce giddily out the door after she told him his donut was free, and who waved me away and said "you're good" when it was my turn to pay and then, when asked if there was a deal that day said "i hate my job"
