David_j_roth@davidjroth.bsky.social · 2d agoIt's too depressing and obnoxious to write about, but virtually all of the doomy/horny AI hyperventilating is transparently displaced anxiety about our fucked climate and political situation. Even rich idiots know it's bad and being permitted to get worse. They're trying to write their own ending.

I very much want to read this one. Pope Leo summoned Gareth Gore to the Vatican awhile back for a closed-door meeting about which Gore - who has desperately tried to get multiple popes to give a fuck about his reporting - said little except that he left feeling good about where they left things 👀

When the Pope calls a book a “rigorous piece of work” and you’re a lapsed Catholic that’s married to a Catholic who’s very frustrated with the church and loves your recaps of @clairewillett.bsky.social threads, well, you put your name on the waitlist

This is the seventh book in the series and it’s the same fast paced action that I enjoyed from the first three. If you’re this far in there’s no reason to stop now. I will say something that’s not about the book but about me skipping from book three to seven which no gen x, scifi fan has said ever

I’m guessing this is being done so he can claim it’s critical to national security in the lawsuit that was filed. I’d bet the only change, if any, to the plan is to change a sign on a closet from “maintenance” to “armory” www.npr.org/2026/06/10/n...

By me, at this.weekinsecurity.com, I wrote about how a data breach of 150+ million driver's licenses and their photos is a privacy and anonymity disaster for an entire generation of people in the U.S. and Canada.
A breach of over 150 million U.S. and Canadian driver's license photos is an anonymity disaster
The breach links the names and photos of millions of people across North America. One expert said this is likely the largest database of facial images ever breached.

I can’t stop thinking about this story of a 40 year old Christian Fellowship for law enforcement getting caught making one spectacularly bad hire and immediately disbanding the organization. Feels like they really don’t want anyone digging into their hiring practices or history

My wife is good about letting our neighbors take clippings from the garden and has built up quite a little fan club. Today a neighbor dropped off some eggs from their chickens and (I think?) quails. I ask in all seriousness: what should I do with the quail eggs?
A couple of months ago when we were stuck in the house I put on Fried Green Tomatoes and was surprised to hear that my wife had never seen it. Turns out she hasn’t seen many movies from 80’s and 90’s so we’ve been watching the heavy hitters that I thought she’d really like to have seen.
I bought a ticket at The Nightlight for this so fast when I found out about it...it looks amazing! My kind of sci-fi action movie, right there!

A good buddy cop story has lots of action, quippy dialogue and a massive conspiracy run by a mustache twirling evil genius. @scalzi.com delivers on all of it and it’s highly entertaining. Written six years before COVID, his commentary on post pandemic life and tech oligarchy is shockingly on point
Al @dash-notheactualworddash.com · 4w agoNext book is @scalzi.com’s Lock In. It takes place after a global pandemic from a flu like illness which can cause long term neurological damage. Also everyone is trying to move on and pretend it never happened. It came out in 2014 so it ruins the “Novel of the near future” tagline for everyone else
Take a break from being depressed that everything you love is being destroyed by slop for a moment and let me tell you about the beautiful symbiotic relationship between graffiti writers, train yard workers, and model train enthusiasts.
While it’s great that this happened quickly the whole “we’re sorry for the damage we caused to law enforcement agencies and the taxpayers” bit really makes me wonder where CLEF gets its money from
