I am doomed to never travel through this accursed shithole without getting stuck somehow.

they should make a movie series about how it’s irresponsible to use technology to mess with the natural order of things for profit

I mean I was conditioned throughout childhood that any kind of loud noise not generated by a human was verboten after a certain time. So I do tend to have night time volume and day time volume levels. (Trauma? What is trauma?)

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)

I did not need to wake up to this. This might be a hate crime, old man! (Hope you’re having a good holidays with family by the way)

Good dog

it might seem surprising that the people who said “look, let trans people live their lives, but i have Reasonable Concerns about sports and toilets” aren’t up in arms about this, but what you have to remember is that those people who said that are liars who were lying

Thing is, like what he's done with trans people, he's probably just going to do exactly what he wants but now he's going to do a patronising sympathetic smile and pat on our heads as he takes away our support. See, he's nice. Let him be Prime Minister. Go on. Please.

Oh look. Some Obey In Advance shit. From people who cannot possibly be unaware of Timothy Snyder.

We should stop calling it a 'sun tan' and call it what it actually is - sun damage.

What we have here is a bunch of Andrew Ryans from Bioshock

How Catastrophic Is It If the AI Bubble Bursts? An FAQ. The AI industry's most important product is not a chatbot or a video generator; it's the story the AI industry is telling about itself

"The AI industry’s most important product at this moment is not a chatbot or a video generator; it’s the story the AI industry is telling about itself.... According to an MIT study, 95% of businesses that have deployed generative AI have gotten no value from it." www.theringer.com/2025/11/04/t...

Joyce Carol Oates @Joyce... 17h O So curious that such a wealthy man never posts anything that indicates that he enjoys or is even aware of what virtually everyone appreciates— scenes from nature, pet dog or cat, praise for a movie, music, a book (but doubt that he reads); pride in a friend's or relative's accomplishment; condolences for someone who has died; pleasure in sports, acclaim for a favorite team; references to history. In fact he seems totally uneducated, uncultured. The poorest persons on Twitter may have access to more beauty & meaning in life than the "most wealthy person in the world."

Elon Musk ' @elonmusk X.com Oates is a liar and delights in being mean. Not a good human.

lol she got his ass and he knows it

I have it on excellent authority that Lower Decks was, in fact, made for people who hadn’t seen any other Star Trek shows.

I love the idea that you listen to me (even stern eye me) because it is entirely fictional

Since taking office, Donald Trump has declared eight national emergencies to justify his radical agenda. But there is on America's REAL National Emergency

Trump is declaring fake emergencies against immigrants and protesters while gutting our capacity to respond to actual emergencies like natural disasters and pandemics.

I have no problem saying that Greta Thunberg is braver than I’ll ever be. Admit it instead of deepening your cowardice and insisting that she’s done something selfish when she’s done something truly selfless.

Night pasta.

I've also realised that my relationship with social media is more lurking than engaging. I read many posts and interact with few. I can count on my fingers the amount of posts I've liked, upvoted, etc because in my head I just think "what's the point?"

I may post here more. I may just not bother. It's been kind of nice having my only social media be the hellsite that is Tumblr. But it is nice to see the mass exodus from the oligarch ex bird site

The protestors want to call it "the tractor tax" because calling it "the inheritance tax protest" would turn off public opinion.

The tractors coming into London today, in fact, pay no road tax, no congestion charge, and no ULEZ.

Exempt from all.

Quote from Daniel regarding HarperCollins partnership with AI firm: “The fear of robots replacing authors is a false binary. I see it as the beginning of two diverging markets, readers who want to connect with other humans across time and space, or readers who are satisfied with a customized on-demand content pellet fed to them by the big computer so they never have to be challenged again.”
