Headline of a Q&A in New Yorker formatting Headline: A panicked middle-aged man refuses to tell me directions to the bathroom. Subhed: Please, I just have to pee. I'm in a hurry. By Isaac Chotiner March 4, 2026

Excuse me. Oh, God. Oh, no. Holy shit. Get away from me. I was wondering if you knew where the bathrooms are. Look, I'm ... it's not a crime to scroll through your high school girlfriend's Instagram account. We remained friends after high school! I was at her wedding! It's only natural to see how she's doing.

I'm in a bit of a hurry, and I'm afraid that if I choose the wrong corridor, I'll be late for my train. I think they're down that way, but I'm actually from out of town. Please stop talking to me.

Real quick, though. I agree that it's natural to be interested in an old friend, but aren't you afraid about the message you might be sending by liking a picture of her at the beach from 2015? If that did happen, and I'm only going off your word, it was probably an accident. They put the ... scroll bars or whatever ... close to the thumbs up button. People have been complaining about that for years. I've been complaining about that for years.

Two panel comic. Panel 1: girl rifling through her purse. Says to her boyfriend, “babe, can you hold my keys?” He replies, “sure.” Panel 2: he stares in disbelief at the “keys” placed in his hand, a single car key and approximately six key chain toys and charms overflowing in his open palm.

what was it?

Mitigating factor to this is while the "military recruits poor people bit" isn't true and its more generally representative of Americans, it remains as a path towards upward mobility esp when college has become shakier in that regard.

Sympathy should be irrelevant to its crimes, of course.

1. You probably have seen this panel. It's from JLA 80-Page Giant(1998) #1

It's a great short story. Only 10 pages.

The policy in question

Granted, I'm a yank.

It makes more sense when you're viewing it as keeping out the sin or morality of gambling from children's media, vs countering the disease of gambling addiction.

Probably not. This was an issue with Balatro, but that was explicitly because they used poker iconography even if calling that game gambling simulation is nonsense.

The stock market isn't gambling by PEGI's definition, which has an ideological bent obv. AC doesn't really simulate stocks anyways.

Drew Pavlou @DrewPavlou I would die to defend Alyssa Liu Seriously if I was at an event and we were attacked by Islamic terrorists and they were about to kill Alyssa I would 100% sacrifice myself to defend her. I would try to wrestle the gun off them even if it meant certain death. If they had a (show more) Amorgosoid @amorgosoid Would you suck the islamic terrorists' cocks to save Alyssa Liu? Drew Pavlou @Drew Pavlov That's a step too far

They eventually will name this maneuver after me

Digital Lords or Capitalist Titans? Critiquing the Techno-Feudalism Narrative In recent years, the rise of platform monopolies such as Google, Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft has sparked a growing discourse among scholars and public intellectuals, many of whom describe these dev…

Techno feudalism is bad analysis that's painting rent seeking as somehow detached from capitalism, and it gets mystified.

There's some other good stuff on this topic but this has the basic criticisms of that narrative

His morals are incredibly clear

Our boy mayor has said all the right things the do-nothing establishment wants him to, and most importantly, done nothing. PERFECT national representative. He has been biding his time at the top of the local political heap just waiting for this chance to step over us to something higher.

if you get anxiety about drawing, like i do, i rly can't stress the usefulness of using shitty tools. equip the limiter. you can't beat yourself up that it looks bad when the medium sucks in the first place. in fact, you may find yourself impressed at how well you can make such a bad tool work...
