Question for men and women: Scenario: You are a MAN. You wake up one morning and discover you are the last man on earth. Every other person on the planet is female. What are you doing next?

Wait, are you telling me all those people on the infinite tandem bike aren’t actually Thrillionaires?

I just think it’s strange that all the gambling companies have ads with athletes and celebrities instead of featuring all their users who have become millionaires betting, very strange indeed

There are many inexplicable aspects to this, but none more so than: if you are going to do a Minion marketing tie-in with a type of fruit, there is ONE VERY OBVIOUS CHOICE

I really wanted to advocate for the top part of my larynx, but I just can't give it my full-throated support.

Hm, has Meta ever been known to do funky math that led to the obliteration of whole industries? Trying to remember.

Rodger Sherman@rodger.bsky.social

Two possibilities: —Threads is becoming the dominant text-based social media app even though nobody you’ve ever met has ever used Threads —Meta is doing some funky math and just counting people who use their Instagram accounts as active Threads users

despite being one of the more difficult monsters to make a movie about—narratively and visually—the concept of werewolves has never left the public imagination, most likely because it expresses a universal fear of how much it would be everybody's problem if men had periods

That's what taxes are, man. That's the definition of taxes. "You are subsidizing things you might never use" man shut the fuck up. My taxes currently subsidize like oil company exec private jets, you think I'm upset at low-income people eating inexpensive bananas?

Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.

The culmination of the attitude that writing a children's book is an easy thing that anyone can do, rather than an art form that is EXTREMELY HARD to do well but very easy to produce a boring pile of doggerel (see also: nearly every celebrity who writes a children's book)

the beggars out of here getter@milesklee.bsky.social

Parents are fed up with friends and relatives giving their kids “personalized” AI-generated storybooks with characters resembling their kids. Apart from data privacy concerns, literacy experts say these garbled and convoluted narratives could be an impediment to learning how to read.

I am resigned to receiving texts from unknown blue PACs forever, but this one made me so MAD. Disrupt, the way to be "the Dem's answer toTPUSA" maybe shouldn't be "lie as much as they do"!!

the president is lying again he lies every day, constantly, about everything, and he makes us listen to his lies, and I am very tired of them

The owner of X is embracing an explicitly fascist ideology which is opposed to liberalism, universal suffrage, and racial equality—and yet every Democrat in Congress and most journalists still use his website every day. It’s absolutely disgusting.

People who spiral out overusing LLM chatbots are really just experiencing the kind of brain-damaging stream of unconditional validation that’s always been the norm for the hyper-wealthy, which explains a lot.

Worse than Twitter, private discussions (text, email, whatever) among like-minded wealthy lunatics who are all surrounded by yes-men who talk like ChatGPT in maximum ass-kissing mode.

Donald Trump is a very stupid fucking person who genuinely has no idea how anything works and the U.S. press should never be allowed to live down their failure in communicating this mercilessly and clearly to the U.S. public

I have many problems with the NYT but this is a GREAT example of the power of actual investigative reporting — an AI cheating tool and a separate shady marketer BOTH closed up shop as a direct result of this piece!

Both Hillary Clinton and Marco Rubio seem to be describing Netanyahu using the same tactic 14 years apart. The difference is, it seems, the same tactic worked this time.
