A Slack, Salesforce, and Mr. Beast collab? Absolutely not.

You can test new tech ideas using the Seinfeld Test

Would the product eliminate the plot of an episode? (Google maps, cell phones, paypal, battery packs)

Good tech.

Would the product inspire new Seinfeld plots? (NFTs, AI chatbots, crypto currency, blindboxes, metaverse land sales)

Bad tech.

I’m the only one at this 3:25 showing of Melania so I asked the usher if I can smoke and he said go ahead.

stop using AI to do your research. it hallucinates too often. if you want an answer to something, post something arrogant on the appropriate subreddit. something like: "this item performs 10% better than everything else. only idiots deny this." this will bait nerds into doing your research for you.

DHS has shot 12 people during immigration enforcement operations since September:

every republican president destroys the economy

This is Porter. He became paralyzed after a spinal stroke. After weeks of physical therapy, this was the moment he realized he can feel his legs again. 14/10 we're so happy for him (IG: emmagraceferguson_)

The Bryce-Jordan Center is the basketball equivalent of a sensory deprivation chamber. I don't know how you get up for a game there.

Today was a banger for stupid crap

RFK jr vs childhood vaccines
Trump administration vs nato

Tomorrow could at least theoretically be worse

final stage of US empire sees us capturing several presidents, putting them in a house, and making a show. we will watch the presidents fall in love. we will watch them hate and despise and reconcile with each other. a thrilling conclusion to the american project. well then there's All Stars

Trump Says We Have the “Hottest” Economy. Markets Tell a Different Story. The U.S. economy entered 2025 as the “envy of the world.” It exited well behind its peers.

congrats, america, you’re all florida now

30 Rock "What a week" meme: "What a year, huh?" "Lemon, it's January 3rd."

one thing that has always genuinely frightened me about him is he doesn’t appear to believe that the world will exist after he’s gone, and as president, he could make that literally true

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month.

It’s about oil and regime change.

And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries haven’t said anything about Venezuela

How many fucking times does this have to be repeated?

1. Impeachment is done by the House, not the Senate.

2. The House is controlled by Republicans, not Democrats.

3. Democrats already impeached him, twice. Republicans refused to convict him, both times.

4. Republicans also control the Senate.

People are going to try and lure you into debates about whether Maduro was a good guy or not and the thing is, it doesn’t matter for the purposes of discussing whether violent kidnappings and extrajudicial murders by the US government are ok. No, they aren’t! End of convo.

Perhaps now people will stop wishcasting about the US military refusing illegal orders. That's not a thing that happens. The 100% compliance rate with using civilian boats for target practice was a bit of a tell.

Most people will focus on the insider trading element.

What's more concerning is how this could've been a tip-off of pending military action. Like Signalgate, except anyone can see it in real time.

I’m thinking this morning about all the people I spoke to last year who were absolutely convinced, and tried to convince me, that Trump would be antiwar compared to Biden and Harris.

In the past week alone he has attacked Nigeria and then Venezuela and also threatened to attack Iran (again).

The way the press is treating chatbots, like they have agency and they “know” things all of a sudden, crossed the line recently from dumb and obsequious to something else entirely. Treating them as alive and making conscious decisions is an almost religious belief. It won’t age well.

ESPN’s Pat McAfee and others amplified a false rumor. A teenager’s life was ‘destroyed’ An Ole Miss freshman has engaged legal representation and says she intends to take action against McAfee, ESPN, and potentially others

The Athletic says that Katie Strang’s Mary Kate Cornett story—written during McAfee/ESPN’s months-long silence—was the most-read story on the site in 2025.

This game is a nice encapsulation of the Sherrone Moore era. Come out with a lot of promise and a lot of sloppy mistakes, take advantage of some dumb luck, spend halftime fucking around instead of making adjustments, swing some 5-star shit around, and then finish with a spectacular collapse.
