She’s (a) running against Ilhan, and (b)probably counting on people not figuring out that she was an ICE prosecutor before signing up to imprison people at DOJ. Her candidacy comes with a free laugh track.

maybe! still funny, and I'm saying this as someone who semiregularly accidentally wears a base layer backwards and doesn't notice until I'm taking it off

I would just beg bike racing fans to contemplate the extraordinary liberation that comes from not giving a shit what anyone else on a bike wears. I get that there's something inherently funny to tease but it's a gateway to an elitist black hole that continues to hurt bike culture.

Writing is thinking. Writing is a way of molding YOUR OWN thoughts. So when you hand over your "writing" to monstrous AI apps made by the most craven motherfuckers imaginable, you hand them the keys to YOUR head. AND you strip the work of writers. GRIND THESE APPS TO DUST.

The Minutemen's Double Nickels on the Dime The story of the Minutemen has been told before (Our Band Could Be Your Life, We Jam Econo), but this book focuses purely on their music - the punk ethic and th…

and like the thing about boycotts to me is in the case of nonessential things you learn to live without them and in most cases that you *never* needed them and your new habits just remain

Grammarly turned me into an AI editor against my will and I hate it The company tells Platformer it will let experts opt out of the controversial feature — but how different is it than what every other AI company is doing?

"Grammarly curated a list of real people, gave its models free rein to hallucinate plausible-sounding advice on their behalf, and put it all behind a subscription. That's a deliberate choice to monetize the identities of real people without involving them, and it sucks." @caseynewton.bsky.social

and like a lot of years there isn't even a consensus top pick anyway, like what, you expect the worst teams to not even be in the lottery?

Actually, let's TRIPLE down on the Target boycott. 🫡

They should be humiliated and discredited to the extent they need to change the company name like the dog food brand in mad men. Lawyers must be retained. Multiple beach houses forfeited.

I don't think grammarly should just get to do "sorry deleting now" after ventriloquizing living and dead people without their consent to make money

There's never an easy way to share bad news, but so many you knew Marcia and her smile. So many of you went to Greenwich Street because of her. This just devastating news.

oh it was one of the kobe-est things that ever happened, it was the perfect capper to an all-time weird and somewhat offputting career
