There are like a dozen videos this bad or worse per week now. This stuff is insane.

We are thrilled to announce that our NEW Large Language Model will be released on 11.18.25.

Starbucks execs should be prosecuted for union busting

Evil stupid crap

yeah, at this point, if those generals want to do a military coup to depose this administration, I would accept that

Excited to introduce Vibes from Meta. Eat your slop, piggies!

It's not lost on me that the majority of the folks doing ICE watch stuff in my area of Massachusetts are women, two of whom stopped an abduction with their presence over the weekend. In spite of all the risks, people *are* fighting to protect their neighbors and that should give us hope.

see, the thing is, us politics is coming for you whether or not you see the posts. our export is destruction.

#arnoldarboretum is a gem. Its not safe to get to. South street in particular has people going 50 down it with no speed bumps, no bike lanes, no sidewalks. I routinely see people walking & biking there with cars attempting to pass. Lets take some space and put these in @wutrain.bsky.social

My masters thesis was on pedestrian deaths in car crashes, focusing on sound since at the time there was strong debate that electric cars needed to be audible for blind people like myself. There was absolutely no statistical significance in pedestrian safety- it was 100% on the car driver.

Trigger warning.

“In crashes, SUVs are more likely to strike vital organs in the core of adults’ bodies & heads of children. Hitting pedestrians above their center of gravity means they’re more likely to be knocked forward & down and then be driven over.”

Plus more likely to hit in the 1st place.

I literally spent 10 min translating Lula’s speech about Palestine to English. I just need every single one of my gringo friends to listen to this man in order to maybe restore their faith in politics. This right here is a politician. This is why we voted for him. And personally, I’ll do it again.

Trump's Budget Cuts Won’t Stop Cambridge From Bridging Its Communities - Streetsblog Massachusetts While the federal government has been pulling grant funding to exploit political divisions, communities like Cambridge are working to keep neighborhoods and people connected by replacing cancelled gra...

Republicans in D.C. cancelled a $2M grant for @cambridgemass.bsky.social to build a new bridge that would connect Danehy Park to affordable housing along Rindge Ave.

Now, the city's using other federal funds to build it anyhow.

On the street, it's got a dozen names. Some call 'em White Devils. Simple, classic. Some cats call 'em The Levelers, 'cause they take you from a 10 on the pain scale down to a zero. Smooths you right out. You call it Tylenol. I call it death.

Strange, the bully is kicking my ass even though I've been telling everyone how much I respect him. Maybe he hasn't heard

In Swedish, a word for what you eat to bridge the gap between meals (or while waiting for the main course to cook) is stödmacka. It means "support sandwich."

A similar word in Norwegian is ventepølse, or "waiting sausage."

FDR won 42 states in 1932, it wasn't by pandering to Hoover voters. Then Republicans called him a socialist for 4 years. Then he ran for reelection and won 46 states

the Will Smith track “Wild Wild West” just came on the radio and:

1) it was weird that for several years whenever Will made a tentpole movie he also rapped about it in partial character

2) we should make more actors do this

Relatable.

Mr. Fallon said on “The Tonight Show,” “I don’t know what’s going on. And no one does. But I do know Jimmy Kimmel, and he’s a decent, funny and loving guy and I hope he comes back.” He then insisted that he would not be censored, before a voiceover provided more complimentary language over Mr. Fallon’s commentary.

they *lost* Fallon?

Someone asked me earlier why I don’t do more than AI, and the answer is that every time I look deeper into AI I see more evidence that this is a massive, unbelievable failure, propped up by webs of debt and ignorance, private capital fully believes there’s massive AI demand that does not exist.
