As a constituent I will always vote for the candidate with the strongest eyebrows. That's all that really matters. The NYT should interview me about this

Friend of mine at this party just introduced me to another friend saying "you two are the only people I know who were ever really into Homestuck" and then we regarded each other warily

I have yet to see any evidence that there is a market for AI-generated books outside of people being tricked into thinking they are not AI-generated books. AKA, it is a project of scamming and deceiving people, and really should be treated as fraud

Revealed: How Substack makes money from hosting Nazi newsletters Exclusive: Site takes a cut of subscriptions to content that promotes far-right ideology, white supremacy and antisemitism

for the terminally online this is *far* from a revalation and also, i *really* hope that it will push more people to jump to another platform. there are places that will help you migrate your newsletter and don't profit off hate speech.

The switch 2 was a very generous gift from a friend which means if Nintendo announces a special edition switch 2 to go with another mainline Zelda game in the future and I buy it you can judge me BUT at least I won't have actually fully purchased two Switch 2s for myself. Because this one was freeee

SWITCH 2 ACQUIRED. She feels kind of impersonal without pretty Joycons or a dock cover (I've ordered one) but I'm so pleased to have so many generations of the family together. Wii U gamepad and original Switch for scale

My story on Elon Musk cutting safeguards at xAI is on the front page of today's @washingtonpost.com. I’m also among 100’s of reporters laid off. I absolutely loved my job my brilliant coworkers & the thrill of reporting @ the center of forces upending the world: AI & Silicon Valley’s political power

The first time I read this piece, I immediately went back to reread it, highlighted like every other sentence, and then sent Annie 600 text messages about how good it is

Benedict is such an unforgivable motherfucker, it took a "not like other girls" he was horny for to make him realize it sucks to be a girl when he was raised by a single mother and had like ten sisters who've been trying to tell him this for 30 yrs

David Brooks: Boo-Boos in Paradise The classic 2004 examination of David Brooks’s β€œBobos in Paradise” by Philadelphia magazine’s Sasha Issenberg.

How did David Brooks get *every remaining job today*?

Regardless please enjoy this glorious story that first exploded that he's a TERRIBLE JOURNALIST.

I actually can't imagine a worse idea than letting David Brooks have a video podcast. Even his written words have negative charisma; imagine what spoken words with his face attached will do
