Joe Biden won the presidency saying “at least three.” Talarico, much as I hate it, ain’t winning. Coward ass shit doesn’t win.

The plagiarism machine I created will likely kill us all, there’s a 40% chance, no, higher, like 75%,or more! But NO I will not “unplug it,” that’s an insane suggestion. The scientific solution is to *give me more money.*
Nobody should take any of these people seriously
Too Big to Fail@toobigtofail.bsky.social · 2d agoThis, from an Anthropic employee, either reflects a lack of imagination or is evidence that this is all just lies. If you were really that scared, you'd pull the plug on all the servers and wipe everything from ARIN, APNIC, LACNIC, AFRINIC, and RIPE NCC. No more internet; problem solved.

As a fellow zero unread email I get all the love for that. But it’s the “looking for work” thing I’m in 100% agreement with.
Mina Kimes@minakimes.bsky.social · 2d agoTalked to @wired.com about a bunch of things, including: r/bald, Bluesky, Elon ruining twitter, why I live the inbox zero life, LLMs, and more. Here it is: www.wired.com/story/user-b...
Can’t even get a “president says, without evidence […]”
Kevin M. Kruse@kevinmkruse.bsky.social · 4d agoIs it a big deal that the U.S. president is telling insane lies that he personally rushed to the site of 9/11 and heroically acted like a first responder himself? Sorta seems like it should be! Maybe?
“As shown in the provided video of what was viewed during the replay process, a side-by-side view of the play and the game clock, using a direct shot of the game clock in the stadium, was used to determine the final ruling.” B1G embarrassing itself in both sports AND academics here
Sickos Committee@sickoscommittee.org · 7d agoDid the Big Ten need to release their statement in the same font as the back of choose your own adventure books?

God it was such a disaster that we let this guy become a Senator.
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.gov · 2w agoI am in strong agreement with the President. Congress should immediately take up and pass a federal film tax incentive to bring back these good-paying jobs that we've lost to other countries.

Cyrus Hall@cyrushall.bsky.social · 2w agoSo two members of the @sfdemocrats.org Central Committee are on the payroll of Flock (Ho and Chandler). Seems like they should have to recuse themselves whenever issues around Flock come up for a vote? sfstandard.com/2026/08/30/p...
For many years I wondered, "how bad will Republicans have to get before the media/political establishment in the US gets over its endless obsession with scolding & tone policing the left?" I think at this point we have to acknowledge that the answer is: never. Literally never.
Radley Balko@radleybalko.bsky.social · 2w agoIt’s mind-blowing that we have literal white nationalists in the White House carrying out unfathomably cruel, abusive, white nationalist policies, and the punditariat has spent the last two weeks debating if some people were too intemperate after a Black man was murdered by cops six years ago.
I don't think it should be controversial to say, "we will not provide financial or military assistance to a country where the Minister of National Security brags about popping people's dreams of 'food' and 'education' then sending them to a prison where they are starved."
Nathan Tankus@nathantankus.bsky.social · 2w agoBen Gvir posted this video on twitter today which shows fat and happy Palestinians on a conveyer built going through the Israeli "prison" (torture camp) system and coming out emaciated and maudlin. This is textbook genocidal content.
The news media instead told us that "it's not clear what Elon Musk's politics are" right before he became the #1 Republican donor in history then told us "Elon Musk is leaving politics" right before he was going to become the #1 Republican donor for a second consecutive cycle.
Scott Lemieux@lemieuxlgm.bsky.social · 2w agoNot a fan of Hasan Piker but he's a guy who streams monologues to a small audience. Elon spends hundreds of millions of dollars trying to get Republicans elected and was for weeks the second most powerful member of the federal government, but oddly Republicans are rarely grilled about his views
The best part of the Minnesota State Fair - best fair in the country - is the crop art. These folks do magic. So glad to have seen it last year.

The A's just did one of the coolest things I've seen in their broadcast: Just unfiltered audio of the live director calling a Lawrence Butler plate appearance...that went about as well as they could have hoped for.
Genuinely abundant, cheap, accessible energy has vastly more liberatory potential than AI, for vastly more people -- especially more poor people. Which, I guess, is your answer.
mtsw@mtsw.bsky.social · 2w agoHave you seen any reporting on how solar power generation in the USA is 5 times higher than it was in 2020 in mainstream outlets? If not, why do you think this is not being widely covered the same way other large technological changes are?
Tim Curry and Dolly Parton have taught us not only that you should be bigger, weirder, gayer, and freakier, but also that those qualities are what people will love about you. The things that make you strange and amazing are the things that will resonate with other strange and amazing people
tim curry keeping up the bit twenty years after the fact by writing in his memoir that he and miss piggy had an affair during the filming of muppet treasure island is just so good and funny

the post-covid revolt of the bosses is the biggest factor in the absolute collapse of public support for tech we had a brief window of genuine worker power and they hated it and their primary goal with AI has been to break the workforce so they never have to deal with it again
post malone ergo propter malone@proptermalone.bsky.social · 3w ago8) SV has really screwed up a number of marketing-related things lately, AI chief among them. They don’t appear to have even been correct about it slashing headcount, but what a world-historic idiot thing to lead with anyway.

The entire body of the DNC literally voted yesterday to include abolishing ICE in their platform. How can you have a majority leader who is against the platform?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 4w agoJeffries stop short of committing to holding a vote to abolish ICE is he's House Speaker next January, but says he's "committed to dramatically reforming ICE ... the masks should come off, body cameras should come on, judicial warrants should be required."
