The ~6 months of low national COVID transmission has come to an end. The national average risk of contracting COVID is now considered "moderate," and in several states, it's "high" or "very high." Mask up (preferably w/ K/N95), do things outdoors when feasible, and vent/filter indoor air.

Al Overview Willem Dafoe is not in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, but he has appeared in other Star Wars films, including The Last Temptation of Christ (1988).

I honestly can’t believe there are still any AI skeptics out there. This tech is obviously revolutionary

Grooooossssss!

Maybe the real Ship of Theseus was the Ship of Theseus we made along the way

RFK Jr. backs down all the time when he gets push back, so if anyone wants to call, here's the HHS number 1-877-696-6775.
I'd also call your senators/reps as well.

Not ideal, but appreciated

I am a genius! Oh no!

gamedev is just this over and over again

Breakfast in America! 💚🤘🏻

[quoting a tweet by fractalcounty that reads, “today I learned that there are actual people irl who get genuinely upset if they catch you using chatgpt. like they view it as a serious moral failing in certain circles”]

If you're using AI to write essays, eulogies, a text to your wife, I do think less of you as a person. Ceding your mental and creative abilities to a machine is an embarrassing thing and people should be ashamed to admit doing it in public.

These assholes often back down when we push back.

We should push back more.

Most experts acknowledge that a takeover by artificial intelligence is coming for the video game industry within the next five years, and executives have already started preparing to restructure their companies in anticipation. After all, it was one of the first sectors to deploy A.I. programming in the 1980s, with the four ghosts who chase Pac-Man each responding differently to the player's real-time movements.

This is an insane thing to write about game development. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/28/a...

Excellent idea!

HIV and SARS-CoV-2 each damage the immune system in different ways. But people don’t get HIV multiple times, and it’s spread via bodily fluids—not simply through the air, like COVID. #MaskUp

My phone keyboard tried to change "untoasted" to "untrusted" 🙄

Coming from the guy who made fun of Monica Lewinsky on a nightly basis 🙄

This thread outlines an INCREDIBLE tactic to use when calling Visa/mastercard/stripe/other payment processors.

If you have the will and gumption, this is an amazing way to make an impact on their bottom line.

Every time you do this you cost them between $10 and $20.

Undertale is SO full of heart! Thanks for your hard work, Toby Fox!

Emmett Till would be 84 today.

Not 114. Not 104.

84.

He would be my uncle. Not great-great or great uncle. One of my parents' siblings. This is why we remember.

😷🤘🏻 excellent colors to go with the mask!

continuing to run the UBI experiment 14,000,605 times every decade in search of one time it ever won't produce clear positive results for everyone involved so there can finally be an example for the ultra wealthy people to point to illustrating why we can't do that like they've always been saying

OH HEY ITS THE EUGENICS OF DISABLED PEOPLE WE ALL TOLD YOU WAS COMING

Some people don't feel as close to this as they ought to. Most of us are just a bad break or two away from winding up on the streets, and addiction & mental health crises can affect anyone. They're gutting services and rendering more of us disposable, and there's a carceral disposal system waiting.
