OH MY GOD

why does everyone in the Game of Thrones universe have the largest dong you have ever seen

used Lil Wayne a surprising amount in therapy this week, even for me

HE'S

DONE

It Only Takes A Few Weeks On X To Become More Right Wing, Study Shows "This naturally raises the question of what years of exposure might do," the lead researcher said.

My only point these past few years has been that the structure of our social media selects for this. As long as our social media is built around maximum engagement, our politics will tend towards Mr. Beast politics

The Trump Administration Can’t Kill Black History Month We don’t need permission from the government to commemorate a complex past.

"The Trump administration can attempt to remove exhibits from museums, ban books from libraries, and challenge curriculums in schools. But it cannot control what we do in our communities and with our families." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

The NYPD is going to embark on increasingly baroque tantrums like this because their prior method for disciplining the mayor - doxxing and stalking his daughter - is not an option

This is Miller's favorite thing to do, he thinks it's an easy way to win an argument, but I think it's also very clear he derives a kind of pleasure from describing these things bsky.app/profile/grav...

Tourette syndrome activist John Davidson says Bafta told him ‘any swearing would be edited out of the broadcast’ Davidson said he ‘can’t begin to explain how upset and distraught I have been’ over slurs he shouted during the award ceremony

*been* betting it was bullshit that bafta and bbc did anything to accommodate anybody involved and possibly quite the opposite and there it is www.theguardian.com/film/2026/fe...

this is an absolutely astonishing feat of independent journalism, top to bottom, and proves that the only way to truly fight billionaires is not being funded by them. just…read the whole thing.

Single vaccine could protect against all coughs, colds and flus, researchers say A Stanford University team have tested their nasal spray vaccine in animals but still need to do human clinical trials.

Why isn’t the right excited about technology?

when I started practicing DBT at my first therapy job I learned about its concept of "embracing misery" which is definitely one of the most important ideas I have learned so far in my mental health work

something it took me way too long to appreciate when I worked in video games and was way too online is that some people just really like being miserable, so much so that they feel threatened by anyone who isn't

“why do you hate technology” as though “technology” were some discrete entity divorced entirely from the context of what it does and what it creates, rather than a category so broad as to constitute reality itself

Musk on Twitter 2/17/2026: You can just take a picture of your medical data or upload the file to get a second opinion from Grok

Elon posted this yesterday. Just for fun I did it with my before/after cancer PET scans that I had already posted online. In the "before" scan Grok missed the massive tumor lighting up my liver, and in both scans it flagged a non-existent "area of concern" in my chest. Other than that, works great!

I can imagine tons of great uses for AI as a therapist - documentation alone would save incredible amounts of time! But the overpaid CEOs and private equity freaks controlling healthcare don't want to use AI for that; they want to drive down wages and make productivity expectations even more insane

I find a lot of AI tools to be very exciting/promising in theory, but only if they can be meaningfully separated from capital/the c-suite logic that inevitably drives them right now, which feels genuinely impossible

"iS tHeRe a tEcHnoLoGY tHe leFt Is eXcItEd aBoUt" yeah, renewable energy, mRNA vaccines. Lots of cool stuff like that! Probably not the one whose main promise was cutting payrolls

The left tried for decades to pass green energy subsidies, passed them, the subsidies worked, and now literally the entire planet's electricity grid is going to convert to solar+battery. It just doesn't feel like "tech" because it mostly produces kinda boring blue collar jobs instead of billionaires

I feel bad when I read people who say they hate writing, especially to the extent they’d let an LLM do it. Writing was the path to making me feel human and the emotional journey of doing it all the time fills me full of purpose. I refuse to believe I’m the only person who feels like this!

Let me tell you what happens when they can’t manufacture enough parts for critical medical equipment: the companies will exit making that equipment and your insurance company will say “too bad, do your best to keep it working”.

Phillips did this with pediatric ventilators.

On this of all days

If you want to understand why rich guys are turning back to eugenics and recreating the rhetoric and theology of slavery, it’s because they know on some level this level of wealth inequality is unjustifiable bsky.app/profile/marl...

This is happening because OpenAI - a company that does not have anything even approaching a viable business model and is setting money on fire - used borrowed money to advance buy all of the raw materials for RAM production so competitors couldn’t get it

hell yeah brother 🤙
