ontologically evil, but nice

This unfortunately might be the funniest tweet ever made.

(seeing the president wandering around on the roof while the economy adds 3 jobs per month amid weekly pedophilia revelations) time to sign a billion dollar settlement with this man

Any “Your 20s are for…” and “By age 30 you should have…” shit is obsolete because we are not living our parents’ or grandparents’ lives! Your 20s are for freaking out and trying to avert the apocalypse! Your 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s are for freaking out and trying to avert the apocalypse!

So apparently, it may turn out that The Wizard of Oz at the Las Vegas Sphere wasn’t entirely made in AI and Google threw the VFX crew under the bus by claiming it was all done by artificial intelligence.

If true, then fucking yikes.

Question for Mike Flood: With $450 million being allocated to Alligator Alcatraz, and ICE burning through $8.4 million a day to illegally detain people—How much does it cost for fascism? How much do the tax payers have to pay for a fascist country?

My bereaved family: Can't believe he's gone. But now, with the power of technology, we can ask him what he thinks about current events

You are Andrew Cuomo. Can you beat Zohran Mamdani in the NYC mayoral election? Probably not. But try anyway, and learn some Real Cuomo Facts in the process! merrittk.itch.io/cuomo-and-th...

JESSE PINKMAN: You don't want a pedophile lawyer, you want a pedophile lawyer

Context: he wrote "nature is healing" in response to someone saying they saw a cop crying in his car because Trump lost in 2020.

he's a mentor

just got off the phone with Sydney Sweeney. turns out? we agree on everything. don't worry about it. she's cool 👍

damn!!

whooooa!! lol that's awesome; I couldn't tell if it was a bit or not. why did they thank you?

To whom it may concern, and it should concern the editor: I was quoted in your publication: https://cosmosmagazine.com/earth/oceans/can-we-engineer-our-way-out-of-ocean-acidification/ Still, others aren't convinced that good intentions are enough. Dr. David Ho, Professor of Oceanography at University of Hawaii at Manoa, a cofounder and the Chief Science Officer of |C|Worthy, a non-profit that works on verifying ocean-based carbon dioxide removal, believes carbon removal efforts like ocean alkalinity enhancement shouldn't be left solely in the hands of private companies. "They have no way to prove that what they're doing is effective - that's a big problem," Dr Ho said. The crux of the dilemma, he explains, is that we are fighting a planetary-scale problem, but are doing it with tools that are still being built and tested. Geoengineering is not inherently good or bad, but it is inherently powerful. And power, especially when exercised in ecosystems as complex and fragile as the ocean, must be handled with caution. However, I have never spoken to your reporter, nor would I have said those things. I would like you to remove my quote from your story, and issue a public correction and apology. Furthermore, you should look into whether the other parts of the article are also factually correct. Thanks. d.

WTF? I was quoted in this story but I have never spoken to the reporter nor would I have said those things. Is everything just generated by LLMs these days?

is that true

show this to every consultant who thinks chasing toxic masculinity is the way to getting going men's votes

"For the last time, I didn't know anything about Jeffrey Epstein's pedophilia ring, we were just best friends for over a decade and then finally had a falling out when he stole this seventeen-year-old blonde girl from me. I trust that settles it."

Unexpectedly good politics from Thomas Kinkade's family! www.kinkadefamilyfoundation.org

Alex Gangitano tweet Q: Were some of the workers Epstein took young women? Trump: “that story’s been pretty well out there and the answer is yes, they were.” Q: what were their jobs? Trump: “People that work in the spa.” Q: Did one of those people include Virginia Giuffre? Trump: “I think so.”

the "oh crap I shouldn't have said that" guy (Sydney Greenstreet) from the Simpsons

This is *insane* if they do this. They're going to win in court! Just win in court! You're already in court! Why would you possibly do this!

The fact that both parties are underwater is a reflection of the fact that our political system has been corrupted by big money.

But for Democrats, who claim to be the party of labor, the pivot to the “center” has been particularly devastating. They can’t represent capital interests and workers.

I pledge that I will not provide any service to Columbia University. I will not speak at conferences held at or organized by Columbia. I will not publish with Columbia publications or provide peer reviews for them. I will not provide outside tenure evaluations for Columbia departments. I will not contribute in any way to the institution until everyone who is responsible for this week’s shameful decision has resigned, retired, or been fired, and until Columbia repudiates their catastrophic choice.

I wonder if the Columbia leadership realizes (or cares) how much blowback there might be from *within* the academy.

This post, from a Cornell Law professor, is worth reading:

i am offering a competing bid to bari weiss and her blog "the free press"

Please feel free to cite the Deep Magic to me! I was there when it was written so I love talking about it :)

Again we see the incoherence of right-wing policy. Rounding up homeless people and imprisoning them *is* housing them! Punitive solutions to this problem also cost a shitload and require a massive bureaucracy.

They are fine with providing housing, but only if it is ineffective and dehumanizing.

nope.

Politico compiled a list of people who've left The Washington Post over the last eight months and it's three pages long. Think it's important to be transparent about how many people have left, and why h/t @benmullin.bsky.social

“The Left’s hypocrisy truly has no end — for years they have come after South Park for what they labeled as ‘offense’ [sic] content, but suddenly they are praising the show,” Trump White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers told Rolling Stone in a statement Thursday morning. “Just like the creators of South Park, the Left has no authentic or original content, which is why their popularity continues to hit record lows. This show hasn’t been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention. President Trump has delivered on more promises in just six months than any other president in our country’s history — and no fourth-rate show can derail President Trump’s hot streak.”

the president of the united states is NOT mad that a cartoon said he had a small dick. do not put that in the newspaper

wow, this must hit hard as fuck if you're dumb as hell

I feel like we don't make it explicit enough that profiteering is the problem with journalism. This is capitalism at work. Most people don't see it because of what Mark Fisher called capitalist realism: it's the air we breathe, we don't question it. It's urgent to keep reminding people it exists
