Ben Collins, from ‘The Onion’: ‘The powerful have a revenge fantasy, it’s the revenge of the dorks’ The CEO of the leading US satirical website explains what to do when reality is crazy, and how he is trying to buy the website of a famous conspiracy theorist

I love and admire Ben for many reasons, and one of them is how perfectly he is able to distill the pathetic-ness of the right and instill hope and solidarity in everyone else around him.

Anyway, go read his interview with the biggest Spanish newspaper here: english.elpais.com/technology/2...

"It always made me feel less alone." I've heard this said by other MST3K fans, and I think it's just about the most gratifying thing you can hear about something you worked on.

Give a man a fish and someone with a thousand fishes is going to bitch about people getting free handouts. Teach a man to fish? Yeah, that person with a thousand fishes is going to bitch about that too.

I am calling upon the people of Ireland to immediately begin construction of a thread on this site about how you or someone you know was roasted for a fashion choice. We need it.

All roasts must have come from Irish people *only*. Please respect this important rule, it makes a difference.

Tapping the XKCD sign again to explain that no, I won't be seeing an aurora tonight. Or at least I really hope not. That would be bad. :)

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

Grand Theft Auto studio accused of 'union busting' after sacking workers - BBC News A union representing people in the gaming sector said 31 people were fired at Rockstar's UK studios.

If you’re gonna post about the GTA 6 delay, you should also post about Rockstar’s union busting.

I’m not trying to say that they announced the delay today in order to burry the union busting story, but people will miss the union busting news because of the delay news

This wasn’t about leaking GTA VI.

It was:
Rockstar illegally firing union members to stop the studio from unionizing.

it directly contradicts Rockstar’s PR narrative and confirms almost everything that people suspected was going on.

The decision by Condé Nast today to collapse this publication into Vogue and eliminate the politics reporting staff at Teen Vogue is evidence that corporate concentration eliminates innovative ideas and silences voices with less power.

It wasn’t Teen Vogue that fired the political journalists, let’s be clear on this. It was Condé Nast, the parent company, who did the deed.

DNA from Napoleon's 1812 army identifies pathogens likely responsible for the army's demise during retreat from Russia In the summer of 1812, French emperor Napoleon Bonaparte led about half a million soldiers to invade the Russian Empire. But by December, only a fraction of the army remained alive. Historical records...

Might be time to update your priors; it might not have been typhus that tore through Napoleon's army on the Russian campaign but rather two other fevers—one foodborne, the other from body lice

A new report finds corporations like Kroger and McDonald's are using digital loyalty programs to track your data and potentially charge you more.

It's a tactic known as surveillance pricing.

Bravery is not the opposite of fear. It is pushing through and doing something despite the fear. We have all done this, perhaps often, but never recognized it as bravery. Know that you are brave, know that you can overcome your fear. Know that you have done it before, and you will do it again.
