sidequesting never really ends as an adult, huh

Time for another exciting installment of "is this a depressive episode or is everything just really stupid right now"

We are literally mad about your failure to fight the real dangers.

The thing about Mamdani is that he’s a talented politician but not otherworldly or one in a billion, he’s just a competent guy with popular ideas who ran against an entitled piece of shit and to me it’s a lot more optimistic to imagine 1000 campaigns like his than to view him as a unique phenomenon

TIL that blood platelets have serotonin receptors, which is why anemia can mimic depression symptoms and that is absolutely fucking fascinating.

Don’t blame AI for your job woes The white-collar chill has more to do with the economy than with tech

Some studies appear to back the view that AI is to blame for firms hiring fewer young professionals. Yet broader evidence points in the other direction

Prove me wrong.

My timeline is like 75% people talking about calling our senators to beg they don't kill us, and while I'm glad we're all engaged this is just a real dystopian vibe.

Hey @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov: compromising with fascists is compliance. Read the room. Do your jobs. Protect your constituents.

esquire article with headline “why does gen z love rumours so much?”

every generation loves Rumours. it’s fucking Rumours

Jason: “can we watch ONE series of Star Trek without some weird times-wimey temporal weird stuff going on?”

Me: “I have HORRIBLE news for you.”

I’ll say something:

Watson was a racist and misogynist ass & actively carried out harm across his career & life.

Including the “myth” of his “discovery” of structure of DNA & it’s excision or minimization of Rosalind Franklin.

Latter has Hahn - Lise Meitner vibes too while we’re here.

Oh sure you think Chuck Schumer is “caving” and “wants to ruin all the momentum” and “is horrible at politics” but what if I was to tell you that this old crazy man ran the idea by an imaginary married Irish American couple that exists only in his mind and they think it’s great politics

It is fascinating, how the Star Trek ship computer got turned into ego-stroking money printing machine, so that a bunch of greedy dickweasels can maximize their profits with slightly modified stolen content. And i'm still unable to control my damn phone with voice input...

If James Watson had died at 79, he would be remembered as a genius and a legend. Instead he lived until 97, and will be remembered for spending the final 18 years of his life as an outspoken racist and sexist.

i've given myself permission to do this and also decided i don't have to

We could have this everywhere

Maybe Don’t Talk to the New York Times About Zohran Mamdani It’s remarkable, the people you’ll hear from. Teach for even a little while at an expensive institution—the term they tend to prefer is “elite”—and odds are that eventually someone who was a studen…

I havent read such a banger of an essay in a very long time. This is so well-written!

A still from the Great British Bake Off in which Tom is sitting behind Aaron.
