Wrestling is fantastic, because you can find a photo like this and in all honesty you can say, "yes, this depicts two men who both had trade meetings with Fidel Castro against the wishes of their governments".
Wie das Gendern, der Wellenschlag des Meeres und das Vorrücken des Sekundenzeigers hilft Jens Spahns Rücktritt natürlich der AfD. Hören Sie meinen Kommentar in...

Here’s a video from the same podcast as linked in my previous post where you can hear the audio too. I love this because it really lays bare how LLMs fool us - but really they’re just slotting words into linguistic patterns that we’re familiar with. Genres like a podcast or LinkedIn post.
@alan4l.bsky.social hey Alan, Jonas here. Was great to meet you two again! Have fun tonight and safe travels!
Fascinating obituary of Roland Bock with lots of details I had not heard before, such as his various bizarre business ventures. German, but Google Translate or similar should be good enough to give it a read. www.spiegel.de/sport/olympi... (FYI @leecasebolt.bsky.social @mattd-sc.bsky.social)
Roland Bock: Er kämpfte gegen Stiere, Braunbären und gegen sich selbst
Er war als Ringer bei den Olympischen Spielen in Mexiko dabei, saß später im Knast und stand mit Gérard Depardieu vor der Kamera. Roland Bock, mit 81 Jahren gestorben, lebte ein übervolles Leben.

That's a wonderful question. I have devised a way for you to bring wife back. However— if you look back, she will turn into a pillar of salt. I understand this could be considered an inconvenience.

TIL: When the Original Star Wars Trilogy finally aired on Chilean TV in 2003, the network spliced custom beer commercials into the films themselves to avoid cutting to commercial breaks. these additional scenes turn Obi-Wan & Luke into raging space alcoholics who are constantly shotgunning booze.
Found this old episode of the Jordan Breen Show discussing the passing of Kid Yamamoto. Nicely highlights what made Jordan so special. Goes from Kid to reggaeton, Royler Gracie, Eddie Bravo’s legacy, back to Kid and his family, early Shooto, the kakutogi boom, and so on. pca.st/episode/3c9c...

I'm sorry it didn't go well for him at the end. He will always represent what those days of MMA was- and still could be: Not a spigot of right-wing nonsense, of hopeless manliness, of misguided bravado, but a strange home for weirdos and outcasts, people who didn't mind getting hurt for friendship
Great write-up, Breen was a major part of my MMA fandom. If you want an example of one of his miniature biographies, here‘s a clip of him talking about Hideo Tokoro: m.youtube.com/watch?v=x1R0...

The new masculine fascist movement in America that came out to greet Andrew and Tristan Tate in Vegas this weekend did not appear out of thin air. It was built by UFC's Dana White. And like everything else in Trump World, it's a grift first, ideology second. www.garbageday.email/p/ufc-and-th...
@josephweirdness.bsky.social Strong recommendation (duh) for today's Nomura/Abe wXw match, should be out shortly. Not sure I can recommend anything else from the shows.
Friedrich Merz denunziert „die Mitte“, lässt die AfD triumphieren – und schwadroniert von einem „Mehrheitswillen“. Es ist beschämend. Ein Schock. Und eine Zäsur. Eine Kolumne.

“Mhm. And how will you uplift marginalized communities?” I ask an engagement bot, killing off the last members of an endangered species of mynah bird in the Amazon. The bot’s answer lacks intersectionality—I tell it so. A root system that had been alive since the Cretaceous period shrivels and dies
Loved @hannes.muehleisen.org 's point about not sacrificing everything for scale. I'll have to write about this topic at some point. The concept of "informational key constraints" really broke my brain when I first came across it. Happy to see people pushing in a different direction.
