These racist, festering lesions don’t get to dictate what it means to be an American.

Lula: "We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate. A crime in the digital world must be treated the same as a crime in the real world. We cannot have monstrous companies earning millions... not paying taxes... wanting to steer elections."

this is fucking appalling. i already knew james dolan (who owns the knicks and madison square garden) was a douche but this is next-level. www.nytimes.com/athletic/771...

Oh no, Trump's going to be so crushed when he checks in on what his kids and his friends and his appointees and he himself have all been doing.

No one needs to listen to James Carville about anything. But I'll keep saying this until I'm blue in the face: It's not the lefties who hold Democrats hostage in Congress, IT'S THE MODERATES. Bernie Sanders never killed a Democratic bill he didn't like. You know who did? Joe Manchin. Many times.

People’s use of AI should not necessarily be equated with their “liking” or “accepting the technology. It’s like Saw: Jigsaw’s victims solve his puzzles to survive to the next room, not because they like doing it.

go ahead and make your Katie Zacharia jokes, but there’s no second part here and you should really go ahead and make your Katie Zacharia jokes because that shit is extremely funny

Apple’s original music player got many things right. Chief among them: It didn’t connect to the internet.

Our children must begin mastering the exacting technical discipline of Simply Begging For Help At The First Hint Of Effort at a young age, or they'll never be able to unlearn all the skills they won't need to succeed in the future

The worst men alive all absolutely love AI and hate trans people. Huh. Probably no lessons for me to learn there.

I wish there were a single sentence that could simultaneously encapsulate and explain every single problem we have in modern society.

Lebron's life will not be noticeably different for doing these ads in any respect but one: a lot of people who respected him will think less of him now. His legacy is cheapened.

Buccaneers waited around for four hours to go 5 yards, turn the ball over on downs, and lose

The USA can never recover until this arch is torn down, brick by brick.

Maybe the most important political story of our time. People just want the bullshit to stop.

this how the photos be lookin in headlines when a white dog kills his entire family

dems would be well served by ditching the ambiguous "affordability" platitudes and just hammering these clowns on corruption, all day every day. That's what they did to Orban in Hungary

A timeless lesson from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989) is that while Nazis are evil, billionaires who hoard wealth and seek eternal life may be even worse. And bonus evil if they’re Nazi billionaires.

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

Stop taking the good ones! 😩😭

i think the big data center backlash has a lot to do with technology getting worse, costing more, building a surveillance state, destroying the environment, owned by a class of wealthy elite that coalesced behind the fascist regime that made clear they’d sacrifice humanity for their own power growth

“No one truly appreciates the scope of Trump’s clusterfuck” Evergreen sentence right there

So far the best use for Flock cameras has been as an accidental honeypot to see which law enforcement officers can't resist stalking women in extremely well-documented ways, which is apparently the only thing they can be fired for or resign over. We should probably still unplug them all though!

Coco Gauff is so fucking mentally tough!!!

People will come Ray. They'll come to Iowa for reasons they can't even fathom. They'll arrive at your door as innocent as children, longing for the past. "We won't mind if you look around," you'll say. "It's only $20 per person. Plus you can get $50 in free bets when you sign up for an account."
