Was at a conference dinner a while back and one guy said "The future is AI. It doesn't replace senior developers, but no more need for juniors."

To which i replied:

"Where do you think senior developers come from. Straight from the womb?"

He went quiet, then wandered off to a different huddle.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

One really nice and overlooked part of being single is you get to pick your own social circle. You’re not stuck having to be friendly with some moron your partner has known forever.

A lucky trader just happened to put in a $200m trade with 50x leverage a few hours before a Trump pro-crypto announcement. The price of crypto jumped and this person made hundreds of millions. Pure luck I’m sure.

It is truly fucking wild how the introductory thesis of this argument is, "As we all know, men will find any loophole they can to be sex criminals and degenerates. My primary source on this is me, a degenerate."

The Most Relevant Movie in Theaters Is Poised to Make Oscar History. It Would Be a Shameful First. It swept the critics’ awards and seems like an Oscars lock, yet it still doesn’t have a distributor.

congratulations to No Other Land, which may be the first film to win a major Oscar but not theatrical distribution.

Demi Moore losing to Mikey Madison should be a post-credits scene to The Substance.

My mom was supposed to be here in 10 minutes to have dinner. Instead she’s posting random shit on Facebook. I guess the #ADHD doesn’t fall far from the tree.

#Severance is reminding me a lot of "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas" by Ursula K LeGuin.

Pleasures enjoyed by the privileged under capitalism require the suffering of an underclass.

It took the Nazis one month, three weeks, two days, eight hours, and 40 minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic.

When the fire starts to burn, every good person better be ready to man a post with a bucket of water if you want to stop it from raging out of control.

Just watched the 7 Fishes episode of #TheBear without any idea what I was in for. Thoughts:

1) Jamie Lee Curtis is a treasure

2) I envy every actor around that table for getting to work with that much talent in one place

3) I wish I had a Xanax

JD Vance is so nauseatingly unlikeable that he’s literally dragging down the AfD’s approval rating

10% of NASA’s workforce has been laid off—guess that’ll be a boost for SpaceX.

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

I like to remind people that “nothing” was slang for “vagina” when this was written, making the title a double entendre that basically says BIG DEAL ABOUT PUSSY

That thing where you try to accomplish several months of neglected home repairs and cleaning the day before a friend arrives from out of town

Star Trek The Original Series scene. We're in a prison cell, with black metal bars and a concrete wall. Inside the cell we see famous work friends Kirk and Spock, mostly naked. Spock has pants on, but we cannot see what Kirk is wearing down south. Both are shirtless. Kirk is crouching and looks like maybe he's been wHipped. Spock is kind of hovering over him and also against him, with a knee & thigh up near Kirk's chestal region, with Kirk holding on to the leg like a life preserver. Pretty solid intertwining if you ask me. Not quite 8 moves into playing Twister, but close. Closed caption reads, "TO ACHIEVE THE NECESSARY STIMULUS."

#NoContextValentines

47,000+ Palestinians killed. 111,000 injured.

Trump’s response? Forcibly expel Palestinians to make Gaza “a real estate development for the future. A beautiful piece of land.” 

No. Gaza must be rebuilt for the Palestinian people, not billionaire tourists.

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do.

Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

Demonstrators with Nazi flags leave Cincinnati-area highway overpass after residents confront them “Messages of hate like this have no place in our region,” Cincinnati Mayor Aftab Pureval said.

A group of demonstrators wearing black clothing, some holding Nazi flags with swastikas, quickly left a Cincinnati-area overpass when they were confronted by residents Friday, video shows.

USAID, currently being shut down by Elon Musk, purchases about $2 billion annually in rice, wheat, lentils, and peas from American farmers.
