Not only an incredible talent, but a rare talent who also thought it was funny to just voice random memes every once in a while

A new survey of 1,000 American adults found that the strongest supporters of transgender sports bans are not the people who admire women most: they are the people who hold the most hostile views about women. www.helenwebberley.com/news/transge...

It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

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.

Fuck. Yes. Eat shit, you fascist failson.

Lula has been reelected president, Brazilian media has now called. An extraordinary comeback for the left-wing politician who trailed by 2 points in round 1 but managed to hold off Flávio Bolsonaro, the former president's son.

Phew. Make sure you read this before you comment because it’s not as simple as “just move the NBA games” because of the domino effects of moving one game. My biggest issue is that they didn’t hammer this out the second the Dream and Valks made the playoffs.

There will be a Game 6 of the WNBA Finals in Atlanta. But nobody knows yet where or even when the game will be played despite a furious round of negotiations spilling into Sunday between the WNBA, NBA, Valks, Dream and Hawks. What we know, with @ramonaespn.bsky.social www.espn.com/wnba/story/_...

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

long shot, but if any of you happened to be at the Jeff Kinney / Wimpy Kid book event in Louisville tonight, you were treated to the rare spectacle of yours truly dancing (poorly) on stage

The world is scary and we need to fix a lot but broadly life is better and more comfortable now than at any point in human history. Medicine is better, people live longer, planes crash less, things work better, food is better, the list goes on

Having coincidently gotten UTs annual spending on ChatGPT and Claude this week, those sponsors better be paying up

Alex Kirshner@alexkirshner.com

The Texas "Bevo Labs" thing is just Texas finding a way to sell sponsorships for doing what everyone else is doing. This is an underrated thing every time you see some CFB team hire a Superexpert of Artificial Intelligence. It is pretty smart to get paid for having your analysts in Claude Code etc

A helpfully clear exchange here Hasan: "So your argument is that [Minnesota ICE protesters] should stay at home because immigration is a salient issue for Donald Trump. Opposing ICE is only going to help Trump. Wait until we win the election in 2028." Yglesias: "Yes that is what I would have said"

In case you’re wondering what the Outkick guy is up to with the Finals credential WNBA PR gave him: He saw two WNBA PR employees sitting at their desks during the national anthem and posted their photo to Twitter and has followed up with additional posts attempting to dox them

Woah - boards of service in the Marines and the Navy are ignoring Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth's order to purge transgender troops from the military. "Navy and Marine Corps boards have voted to retain trans members in nine of 12 cases." www.nytimes.com/2026/10/23/u...

This is not the Amy Acton's mother I have come to know this week for condemning her molested daughter. If true, this holds grave implications for my views of a public figure I endorsed merely for harboring a fugitive pedophile for decades.

STOP! PHP is a perfectly ok language, but it doesn’t power 70% of the Internet. - by its own measurement, it powers about 2/3 of web domains (not the internet) - the overwhelming majority of those domains no/low traffic WordPress blogs - very few of the top 100 sites by traffic OR revenue run PHP

70 percent of the internet was vulnerable yesterday to very bad security flaws inside a coding language. Turns out, *one volunteer* is mostly responsible for maintaining that code & helping push updates. Yesterday Ondřej Surý saved the internet. So I called him up www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

As recently as last month, the Alt National Park Service was amplifying election misinformation. For god's sake, don't trust them. They're just click farmers.

AltWatcher@altwatcher.bsky.social

Extremely interesting piece from @cip.uw.edu at the University of Washington. Long story short, they identify the Alt National Park Service as a key amplifier of conspiratorial misinformation about a "mail dumping" news story last month.

Drew reposted

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.

Watch the video of what this asshole did. He used his car as a weapon and tried to kill people. He absolutely should rot in jail.

This guy was caught on video committing one of the worst road rage incidents I've ever seen, plowing into a group of riders—and then he left the scene. Seriously, fuck the Atlanta Journal-Constitution for framing him as some sort of a victim. You are complicit assholes. www.ajc.com/news/2026/10...
