Besides the racism, just want to say that just knowing of the existence of the Fields Prize and the Wolf Prize is way more elitist than thinking Cheesecake Factory decor is tacky.

Hide your Republican beliefs girl you're comms director for the MO Senate Republican caucus

I think it's very important that whatever accountability projects come from a Democratic flip in November include dragging the specific people running every piece of Trump administration social media before Congress.

NEW: The group behind Cornel West's 2024 ballot push was wholly funded through Elon Musk's dark money network, according to Sludge's review of tax documents. readsludge.com/2026/10/26/m...

The business risks part in the Anthropic S-1 are, like, downright normal vs. how weird they could have been. Some folks either got heavily edited or exerted a lot of self-control.

The amusing contrast of the not-very-heavy deadlift with the alpha rhetoric vs silly and worth mockery but when you’re like “I can deadlift more than him” you are just reifying the worldview you are trying to take down.

I love seeing neurotic/engagement farming fitness discussion from people with unimpressive physiques or stats. A bunch of six figure PMCs arguing about low volume vs three sets and citing pubmed papers. Just go lift lol

i don't think it's that crazy it's a lot harder to use public money to build a complicated interconnected grid of rail infrastructure than it is to use private money to build a bunch of big warehouses. like i don't think it's great only one of those is possible but what i do not think it is is crazy

A little AI video of a celebrity or politician doing an incongruous dance or being inserted in sports highlights: I think if you enjoy this you should get the Clockwork Orange machine and be forced to watch the Sight and Sound 100.

Everyone here likes to get mad at Times headlines but I don't see anyone else complaining that this headline says "pull-up bars" over a picture of a guy doing dips on parallel bars????

also kind of funny that it going YOLO with chatbots and image generators in 2022 appears to be extremely stupid, business-wise. that kind of shit is like two-thirds of why people hate AI, and it turns out to be unnecessary

Always maddening to read about a hit-and-run arrest and know that if the driver had stayed at the scene they would most likely get off with zero consequences.

My kid just said bro for the first time. It begins.

Interesting how many geniuses on this site know exactly how prediction markets are consistently wrong and yet have no interest in making millions of dollars by exploiting said inefficiencies and structural flaws

Once they invented no-stir peanut butter, there was no need to continue offering the other kind. I shouldn’t be able to accidentally buy the retrograde kind.

Before 2002, the New York Yankees won about a title every three years on average. After 2002, they’ve won 1 in 24 years.

In an amazing example of stolen valor, I have discovered that noted pickup artist mystery refers to being at a bar or club as “in field.”

A thing that really should be subject to some sort of regulatory actio is when subscription services combine but they keep charging you for both. Like if you’re paying for Hulu as a standalone app even though you can now get it from Disney+ and they’re just happily taking your money twice.

You will not believe the twist at the end of this already bizzare long Reddit post.

Reading Sally Rooney at home and occasionally looking up and giving my four year old a performative look.

Hawks and eagles and other birds of prey used to be so close to elimination my dad would sometimes stop the car on a road trip if we saw a hawk. Now there’s just beautiful hawks everywhere.

Having dinner at a restaurant with my 4 year old who is being totally deranged. At the next table, another dad with his teen daughter who is sitting sullenly with her AirPods in. To everything there is a season.

Without dignifying the conspiracy part of this, having the same last name as your brother is perhaps one of the least incredible things one could imagine. Like approaching the bottom possible level of incredible things.

the FDA has announced a recall of *spins wheel* MUNG BEANS due to the potential presence of *spins a second more ominous wheel* GLASS

Look, do you own thing but it is bizzare that Gen Z has generated sui generis the behaviors they exhibit at the gym and its had such a mass uptake among all of them.

I wonder if a thing from this era is going to be that every democracy has to touch the stove of far-right rule for a period.

“The most brutal act… of violence… in nature… is when, after a long pause… Nathan hits you with… the ‘okay.’”

I didn’t expect to be using and writing about Swarm (née Foursquare) in 2026, but here we are. https://www.fastcompany.com/91628350/foursquare-swarm-infillion

Certainly says something about where we are culturally that they made an ironic Baywatch in 2017 and now a decade later we're doing a sincere Baywatch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQWt...

BOOM! Finally somebody takes down those arrogant little preschoolers and their so-called art: "Adults outperformed children on externally rated creativity, particularly in structured tasks."

Woman at the gym asked me if there was an end goal to my training. I said no, there is no end because I will never be satisfied. She said “that doesn’t seem good.”

I think one reason these AI story songs that I keep getting as YouTube ads are so compelling is that the song is structured like it’s always about to build to a chorus that never comes. Incredibly hard to not watch til the end. youtu.be/xF0EOLLDSdk?...

If you're spending all your time litigating the characters in You Can See Everything's truths and motivations and not analyzing the inherent unknowableness of the truths and motivations of yourself and everyone you interact with... you need to go deeper.

I've actually found in these situations that the bikers are usually incredibly helpful in using hand gestures to tell you when it's safe to pass them, if you're just chill about it.

I understand the vibecession argument truths (that my wages have also risen over time and this is the result of consumer choices I could but modify). BUT STILL, it does something psychologically that now I seemingly can't get out of the grocery store for less than $50 no matter.

truly a wild time to be alive when the cryptography world is split between those worried about quantum computers and those whose private key is “4”
