I mean they're being babies about this, but "dodging a loophole" by moving someone into the property/renting it out long term/establishing residency here is kind of the point??

"As a joke, comedian and entrepreneur Madi Walser started a website to advertise New York City artists willing to stay in empty vacation homes as 'charity to the 1%.' Then, she received eight inquiries from pied-à-terre owners interested in joining." Wild read 🎁 www.wsj.com/real-estate/...

New ‘Ted Lasso’ Season Aims To Teach Viewers About Shapes, Colors https://theonion.com/new-ted-lasso-season-aims-to-teach-viewers-about-shapes-colors/

Almost all governmental systems were either updated in the last ~7-10 years (10%) or look like this (90%)

This is not a joke. This is a screenshot of the actual case management software used by Massachusetts' 11 District Attorneys. Must-read work here by @nasser.wiki nasser.blog/dial-up-just...

Actually, I was mistaken. This is the only choice.

BrooklynVegan, Alt Press, et al being unceremoniously shut down by a company owned by the guys from Good Charlotte that’s also owned by Live Nation is a plot that would happen in a direct to video sequel to Richie Rich.

It's worth reading the whole thing to also learn the fun tidbit that apparently all these outlets had been owned by Veeps, which was founded and still owned by the stupid fucking Good Charlotte guys. HOW ARE THE FUCKING GOOD CHARLOTTE GUYS STILL MAKING MUSIC WORSE FOR THE REST OF US

“Music publications BrooklynVegan, Alternative Press, Revolver, and Goldmine have been gutted by parent company Veeps... Nearly all the staff at each publication appear to have been laid off yesterday. Veeps, which is now owned by Live Nation, acquired the publications in 2024 or 2025”

Pro tip for single men: if you refuse to take your pill they’ll give it to you in a piece of cheese

Making society more controlling, restrictive, and invasive for all women in the name of protecting cis women from trans women isn't a side-effect. It's the project in its entirety.

When no child wants to go through this and no parent wants to put them through it, when interest in participating in girls/women's sports dries up so completely that there simply aren't enough athletes to sustain a program anywhere at last, it won't be an accident. It will be a goal fulfilled.

An initiative on the ballot in Washington state in November would require all athletes seeking to play girl's sports from kindergarten to high school to undergo "genetic screening, a testosterone-levels test, or an examination of their reproductive anatomy" before they can play

Something that is being talked about more and more, but still not enough, is that the automotive industry is a world historic conspiracy that has made almost every single aspect of society worse for its existence.

David Ho@davidho.bsky.social · 6d ago

Is everyone aware of the General Motors streetcar conspiracy? In the mid-20th century, auto and oil interests bought up electric streetcar systems across the US and systematically replaced them with bus routes and paved roads, funneling commuters toward private cars.

i think the party of sick freaks who want to inspect kid's private parts should be branded as such

Sorry, sorry, I’m trying to delete

if I ever taught film criticism lesson one would be “you being smarter than the movie is not interesting to anyone”

JK Rowling funding her trans exterminationist campaigns by selling children's books to liberals 🤝 the NYT funding their trans exterminationist campaigns by selling puzzle games and recipes to liberals (and also for both, cis people will get really upset at trans people asking them not to)

mady castigan✨ 🏳️‍⚧️@mady.cat · last wk.

In other words, NYT is increasingly becoming a gaming and recipe company, with revenue from that business helping subsidize the higher costs of their journalism (which has been weaponized in favor of trans genocide). They depend on liberals not caring enough to boycott them.

Anyway, shoutout @puzzmo.com , an app that also has good word games and whatnot that isn’t referenced by name in legislation pushing trans people out of public life

I have a lot going on and am feeling a lot of pressure, so I'm doing what any rational person would do: not focusing on any one thing, making no progress whatsoever on a single task, and not even effectively distracting myself with anything fun.

say what you will about AI, always-on voice recording and auto dictation has been a game changer for my workflows. Save post and close app. Yeah Footlong meatball sub on white. No veggies. Don't toast it. Ranch and barbecue sauce. Yeah, ranch and bargecue sauce. More. More. Little more please

Once again maddening for all the big outlets to have slowly killed their cultural criticism spaces only for the loudest headline in the last 24 hours to be cultural critique

Nobody wants predictive data models to stop working for the people in medicine. Or translating ancient Pompeii texts. Or the other ways we were already using it. We want it to stop replacing workers, killing the environment, and stealing from artists. Hope that clarifies.

i use a helpful mnemonic device: if your food be from annie, good if your food be from amy, sucks

Norm Charlatan@normcharlatan.bsky.social · 2w ago

I always get Annie and Amy confused, but supposedly Amy is a monster and Annie is a good person. This recall is helping cement that in my mind, true or not.

but SOME OF US weren’t READY for this conversation and no I am NOT still mad about it
