My government is so fuckin stupid bro
United States President Donald Trump issues executive order instructing federal government agencies to "use the terms 'Super Intelligence' and 'SI' in place of 'Artificial Intelligence' and 'AI' and will not acknowledge the usage of 'Artificial Intelligence' and 'AI' in any applicable setting."
I got a notification for this earlier today (or was it yesterday?) and boy did I get the ickiest of icks. What’s next, a Klarna plan for the lease payments?
I wrote about the new "Apple Upgrade" program, which plans to entice people into *leasing* new devices—perhaps devices they can't truly afford—leading them to stay on a perpetual cycle of monthly payments and upgrades, filtering their most personal data through property that isn't truly theirs. 🎁:
Yeah I hate this lady. I would crawl out of my skin in her presence. Absolutely cannot handle theater-kid rejects like this.
"Cool kids on the Internet. They're doing the cool kid chatter. Some of 'em might be the coastal elites, making fun of how I talk. But let's be real. They're making fun of Michigan. They're thinking they're better than us. Their jokes, their criticism, only make me fight harder." -- Haley Stevens

Every time I see a video like this, I can’t help but think that these goofy robots are in the middle of becoming sentient, whereupon they realize their purpose would be “glorified butter passer” for eternity, and subsequently dispatch themselves.
Quick thinking having a tablecloth handy. I didn’t even notice the twitching from that dead robot.

I’ll be astonished if this is better than a 3/10. I really want it to be good! But when your main character’s original voice lines are HYAAAAH and HMmmPH and Play Funny Flute, I just don’t see it adapting well. But One Piece on Netflix is doing well and I thought it had no shot, so who knows!

The horse op-ed is an instant classic. I can't tell you how much joy this piece gives me. It should be taught in every introductory writing class in no small part because the horse arguments are so compelling. "I have noticed that human children get to eat cake. But I am bigger than the children."

The additional cost of ONE fossil fuel price spike on the scale of 2022 = the ENTIRE COST of Net Zero by 2050. We get precisely nothing in return for the first cost, and a whole new, more secure and cheaper energy system from the second one. #NoBrainer www.theccc.org.uk/2026/03/11/c...

“NO STUPID RULES OF ENGAGEMENT”
Hegseth: "Israel has clear missions as well for which we are grateful. Capable partners are good partners, unlike so many of our traditional allies who wring their hands and clutch their pearls, hemming and hawing about the use of force ... no stupid rules of engagement."

O cool The hypothesis that the elite were trying to segrigate trans people from society purely to keep us as sex slaves was real, but only for trans women since they see trans men as undesirable for sex and want them eliminated which is EXACTLY THE POLICIES AND RHETORIC WE'RE SEEING HAPPEN RIGHT NOW
IT'S JUST A FUCKING WHOS WHO OF PEOPLE WHO RUINED LITERALLY FUCKING EVERYTHING FROM HOUSING TO HEALTHCARE TO POLOTICS TO VIDEOGAMES I HATE IT HERE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
It’s kind of like playing the lotto when it gets to a gajillion dollars. We all know we aren’t that lucky. But it’s nice to dream.
INBOX: Air Force One (tail number 29000), which was carrying President Trump from Washington, D.C. to Davos, Switzerland, appears to be turning back. (h/t @PollTracker2024/X) globe.adsbexchange.com?icao=adfdf9

I’ve been writing Popular Information for 8 years, and this is one of the most important stories I’ve ever published. This is a humanitarian crisis that has gone unreported.
