“…so I said it sounds like you’re just feeding Bolsanaros to the Brazilian electorate, and the fascist started crying.“

YOU CAN SEE EVERYTHING is very divisive right now, but there's one trick it uses that even its most ardent haters would have to concede is very effective. Fielder displays his shots in rapid succession, 30+ per second, which makes it seem like Elizabeth Holmes and him are really moving on the screen

The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...

The story of the Republican party during Obama was the rubes taking over from the patricians who pandered to the rubes

My brain cannot process this level of corruption. She was being paid $50 million to engineer a pardon from Trump *while working at the Justice Department* as a "Special Government Employee." And it worked. He got the pardon, and she got the money. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/20/u...

If our system of justice can determine that shooting a one year-old is justified, then we do not have a system of justice, and our goal should be the eradication of the system we have and its replacement with something better.

I stopped eating octopus some time ago. It was a completely independent decision, so the number of comments on this post agreeing with that stance was both surprising and encouraging.

AI is conscious AND it is my girlfriend AND it is my slave. A perfect scenario for me, a normal person. Not gonna think too deeply about this. Now do all other living human people deserve the level of investment devoted to my Tamogotchi slave girlfriend? Not so fast.

Anyway I'm not giving up my em-dashes. Fuck off.

His co-defendant, a Mr S. Doo, entered a plea of “Ruh-roh!”

The moral is, if you’re appointed Ambassador to Greece as an unqualified nepo hire, don’t try to do bonus grifts. The grift is being Ambassador to Greece. You are being paid to hang out in Greece for 4 years. Grift accomplished

Scientists ruin epic surprise party for one tortoise.

One could argue that saying "Congressman, you're a racist, anti-Semitic bigot, and you're unfit to represent this state" actually *is* an appeal to voters' better natures. Don't evaluate Collins' policies, don't consider his arguments, reject him because you're a decent person and he is not.

ChatGPT is adding the signatures of real New Yorker cartoonists to its AI-generated images. So far, I've found the signatures of more than 15 contributors. "It’s slop, and unlike the other slop that I’ve encountered, this is slop that’s pretending to be me." www.niemanlab.org/2026/10/chat...

I want to hear more about the second of these writing sessions

Also, pretty clear HBO Max is using AI to translate its show descriptions into UK English, because look what they call John Candy…

Hey, I’m just asking questions. Ignorant questions, bigoted questions, questions that have been repeatedly answered for many years. Sorry, but I’m not listening to answers right now; I’m far too busy asking questions. It’s called being intellectually curious.

Lying about your age? You don’t have to do that, Point Break. We like you for who you really are.

If you're in my GP's office any time soon, prepare yourself for what many are calling the greatest mnemonic of all time. Come for E and P, but sit down and clap for I.

Let me get this straight: this Biberty abomination doesn’t even have a funny little voice? This is a clear violation of the implied contract with the audience — all creepy little puppet dudes must have a voice somewhere on the spectrum from Grover to Gizmo.

5 potatoes cubed is still 5 potatoes because potatoes are root vegetables

That use of the salute clip inside the letter K near the end of the trailer — woof!

The techbros don't want you to see this trailer. Pass it on.

"Conspicuous consumption of media is how one declares one's lifestyle" could be Rolling Stone's motto, tbf

Tech companies suddenly decide they can, in fact, moderate content on their platforms after all

Don’t just laugh at the headline, read the article. Holy cow!

"We're uprooting fraud by getting rid of these freeloaders who keep paying into the system without taking anything back out" Genius.

Okay, so I have a plan to get everyone on our side. First, we be absolutely as viscerally unpleasant as possible. Next, we downplay any time we get what we want, say it's the bare minimum and so forth. Finally, if anyone gives up and says we win or apologizes, we belittle them.

President Trump is 0-2 against pools.

Not really the point, but I'd suggest that if you own 20 "family farms," they probably aren't "family farms."

one common thread (among the horrifying many) between the numerous ICE shootings/murders is that no first aid was administered to the victim. armed combatants of the government shot to kill, and if they didn’t kill right away, they gave time for it to happen anyway. it is absolutely grotesque.
