Everybody and their mother has a podcast these days. And you know what? That’s freakin’ great. Growing up I never had a talk radio station that tried to speak to me, and now I do. Hundreds of them.

Come on people, make with the quotes. It only came out 44 years ago!

Dr. Bunsen Honeydew: I suggest we jump.
Fozzie: Are you crazy? That's at least a hundred feet!
Dr. Bunsen Honeydew: I didn't say it was a *good* suggestion.
Beauregard: Maybe we could jump part-way.

Dear @cnn - I know we give them human names, but please do not ascribe human motivations to weather events. How about “heading towards”? “May hit”? “Bermuda in their path”?

Apple is always focused on the convenience and efficiency of their interface for their users. Example: how they deal with blocked sources in their news app.

Why You Are Reading Reddit a Lot More These Days — New York Magazine “The front page of the web” is turning into the last refuge of the human internet. But can it survive AI?

Dear @nymag.com Reddit is not a “corner” of the Internet nor is it the “last refuge of the human Internet”. It is the 6th most frequently visited website in the world according to SEMRush as of May 2025.

A screenshot of a Google search for “Pennsylvania flag”. The AI Overview has a picture to the right that is supposedly of the flag but in the center is a marijuana leaf instead of the actual contents of the flag.
