As we approach the midterms, remember that the Alt National Park Service is a merch sales operation claiming without evidence to be a group of federal employees, and is not a genuine source of news about elections of any kind. Please get your election info from a local, reputable source.

I love that Moyin loves Connie. ❤️ #GBBO

Zelensky: "When our strikes reached Yandex’s data centers, it suddenly became a little easier to breathe on many social media platforms. A lot of people noticed it. There was less hate, less division, and fewer provocations... It’s pretty clear where those bots were coming from."

UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres' reaction during the Manchurian Cantaloupe's speech is all of us.

Good man Diego, take the bottle #TraitorsIRL

As we reflect on sixty years of free secondary education and how it has transformed Ireland, it’s worth remembering that some people thought it was a mistake in its first few years. Who would object to free secondary education? In 1966, quite a few. jrnl.ie/7159629

This Jacob Coxon thing is weird. He worked at Anthropic for six weeks and OpenAI for nearly three years. He’s doing a whole media tour without any real statements about what it is he’s scared of other than vague references to recursive self improvement, a theoretical ai that teaches itself.

I know it's where we're at in 2026 and we all know it, but it bears stating the obvious that every major company in the world is openly throwing a tantrum that people expect them to provide goods and services instead of just sending them a payment of $200 every month for nothing

a remarkably effective life hack: just be nice to people it's incredible how much goodwill people will extend to you if you're pleasant to them

I’ve been standing stock still in this wood for about 10 minutes while I mess about with a photo on my phone. I look up, notice the shape, and slowly crouch down to film This has made me so happy I feel I could cry. It’s as close to magic as I hope to get.

For writers worried that they won't be able to "prove" their work isn't Spicy Autocomplete--worry not. You thought about every choice and will be able to talk about those choices easily and clearly. Folks who used the slop machine didn't make choices and won't have anything to say about why

New book of Simplex from @theobrienpress.bsky.social! We have customers *devoted* to these; delighted to see a new collection

Irish Traitors returning for Season Two!!!

Argentina starting shit once the whistle blew. 😬

Not the ref blowing the whistle the second the clock hit 35 minutes 😆 Everyone just wanted it to be over.

In fairness, it has been close. #ESPARG | #FIFAWorldCup

I’m so relieved on behalf of the concept of football
