Mark Cuban posts: Want to use rich people like me to your advantage? Incent us to help those who need it the most. Lower corp taxes for comps that pay a min of $25 per hour. Lower corp taxes if employees get stock at the same pct as the CEO. Bottom up incentives work. Dems never innovate. They bitch marthapearce55.bsky.social replies: You have more money than God. But you want incentives to do good, moral things?

Meme image of a boxer saying "ok ima fight this code that is way too complicated for what i want it to do", and then the same boxer sitting on a stool drinking water, saying "damn, business logic got hands"

The Simpsons Planet of the Apes musical

One of my strongest beliefs is if they actually put this on Broadway it would absolutely destroy at the award shows and run for 20 years

Using “Surf’s Up” in the interstitial music today on @marketplace.org was such a nice subtle nod to Brian Wilson. Kudos to your music team.

Pacers and Thunder in the Finals. Just as everyone predicted at the start of the season 🙃.

I just really need everybody to understand that everything that’s happening in and to the global economy now (and all the businesses and people in it) is the entirely predictable result of the intentional decisions of one guy who doesn’t understand how the global economy works.

THE PENTAGON BUDGET JUST HIT A TRILLION DOLLARS.

Not a single pundit from either political party said “how are we going to pay for it?!”

Don’t dare tell us we cannot ALL have healthcare, housing, and education.

Star Wars Intro Scroll Episode IV It Was All So Stupid Seriously, you would not believe how stupid it was. Every day, unrelentingly, just the dumbest stuff by the absolute worst people. And what made it worse was knowing that we’d brought this on ourselves.

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.

The NBA needs to fire the person who decided Aerosmith’s “I Don’t Wanna Miss a Thing” was the right song to use in a Playoffs ad.

tomorrow is going to be a generational “this you?” day for dunking on conservatives online who promised everyone everything would be okay

Worried about a recession? This sheet-pan water pie will make you feel like it's the 1930s again.

The most obvious lesson to draw from the leaked Signal chat is that these people really are morons. It's not a public act, it's not a schtick, there's not some secret back room where they drop the facade. They are genuinely stupid, incompetent people.

This is incredibly bad— a CDC website clone but w fake and misleading health advice (especially about vaccines), brought to you by the NGO formerly run by the current HHS secretary.

Again, I say: fuck these ghouls.

There’s a non-zero chance we find that falsely accused people have been included in these deportations.

And there’s no joy to be found in deporting people without legal basis.

Severance with the Twilight Zone “The After Hours” episode code words tonight is *chefs kiss*.

66 years later and this show is still inspiring science fiction and TV.

guys love to say “dude my balatro run last night was insane” then show you a screenshot like this

mommy coming on line to defend your multi billion dollar nazi company is crazy

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country.

This Friday, where will you be?

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:

'No Amazon, no Walmart, no fast food': What's behind the 'Feb. 28 economic blackout' The People's Union USA, a self-described “grassroots movement” founded by John Schwarz, is encouraging Americans to refrain from making non-essential purchases on Friday.

Mark is out here thinking we’re playing Civilization.

Exactly right

This is why you fight these cowards.

The moment you stand up to them, they crumble.

Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.

He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

Hey NYTimes — *now* you’re lighting the beacons? NOW?!? After months of “Sauron: Avatar Of Evil… Or Extreme Uniter?” thumbsucker reporting you’re screaming what we’ve known since 2015? Fuck all the way off.

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

This dude is such a massive loser.

i'm sensing some broader parallels

These are the clowns Congress refuses to stop.
