I took a power nap and there's now a dead senator. If that's not a sign to fix my sleep cycle, I don't know what is.

As someone not living in New York, I'm pretty confused as to why everyone is acting like Mamdani did something weird or surprising. He endorsed people who had his back when he was competing with Cuomo in the primary. Voters in New York like those people, and like Mamdani, and voted as such.

So, "The Furious" absolutely has all the sauce I was hoping it would, so hell yeah on that front.

Buy out an abandoned church, turn most of it itno a left-wing book shop, loan out the kitchen to the local Foods not Bombs chapter ocne a week as long as they clean up after themselves.

Take a break from the discourse and quote this with a business you would want to start if you could afford to lose money on it

I went to the first political event this year that happened to be on a night off. I'm fairly ambivalent.

I'm not as far left as some of the folks I interact with on here, but I think if y'all are serious about anti-billionaire ideals, "Nobody should be able to afford their own sex pest island" is some rhetoric with meat on it.

It's kinda funny that AI people got mad at calling generative content "slop," when that's clearly an editorial/rhetorical compromise because it's seen as poor form to put "AI Bullshit" in a headline.

Today was a rough one. There will likely be more bad ones. But, walking forward, even if it hurts like hell, is what we're going to need. I'm sorry to be here, and I'm sorry we're stuck in this mess together. But, we'll find a way. Because we must, damnit.

I know significantly smarter people than myself have all had their say on the Gen AI stuff, but I do find it kind of wild that the main thing these bots are best at is sycophancy, and I can't help but wonder if the love from CEO's is mostly about an inability to say "no, that's not a thing."

While Mamdani is the main event tonight, a large number of democrat victories occured in just about every election that happened today. Every Democrat should be ready to focus on fighting Trump, if they want to engage their voters.

Sharing this for the streamers I follow who leave vods on the youtubes.

Hey everyone, here's a real simple way to disable "Super Resolution" on your channels: • YouTube Studio • Settings • Channel • Advanced settings • Uncheck "Let YouTube enhance visual quality" • Uncheck "Let YouTube enhance audio quality"

I am demanding anyone that ever tried to throw a hadouken or kamehameha in real life repost this.

A lot of folks bringing up the Rapture today, but honestly? Purgatory with extra steps.

Keith Haring art on a Kesho-Mawashi is one I haven't seen before. Cool pick, honestly.

Abi has been having a rough time this Basho. I feel like something's up with his arms. The weirdest part of Div-1 to me this basho though is Ryuden, who has both been doing decent (not weird) and has had matches I enjoy watching (much weirder).

Got watch some Basho tonight, and honestly, Division 1 is full of cool stuff right now. It's impressive to see Tamawashi still going out there and delivering even in his 40's, and it's stunning to see young bucks like Hitoshi and Shishi showing their raw talent.

With respect to current events, it's important to remember that the people you've regarded as disposable do not owe you sympathy. If you cannot see the humanity in others in your life, then you will likely also have earned celebration upon your death.

medium.com/@theophenes/... I wrote a send-off for a man I loathe. This is a rant.

The Obituary of One Wicked Man

James Dobson, Doctor of Psychology, has passed away. The founder of numerous organizations that utilize faith-based, conservative ideology…

Hate's a strong word, but I ignore it, honestly. I don't need to pay money for someone to tell me I'm not good enough, which is all I've ever seen these guys do.

i wanna try something. quote this post if you’re a man who hates the manosphere

Hulk Hogan has passed. I wish he were the man he pretended to be, but he clearly wasn't. I doubt there's much to say without being cruel, so I suppose that's all I've got to offer.

Finally got around to watching Sinners. Excellent movie. Nice to see Coogler just do a movie that isn't part of a whole franchise. Incredible acting all around.

If you see this, quote this post with a game with a 10/10 soundtrack. Unsurprisingly, the game about music and chaos has a solid soundtrack.

One thing I find fascinating about the supposed "need" to use AI in media production, is that amateur-made stuff of middling quality sells all over the place? Like, I'm not saying everyone will be a stellar artist, but outsourcing your vision to a robot who's just plagiarizing something similiar?

Happy Juneteenth! Please note that any replies with ignorant takes will be ignored, I've got shit to do and with my credentials teaching history requires an hourly rate.

What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders? The entirety of physical architecture in a casino is designed to prevent you from thinking about what time it is, which is why there are typically no clocks on the gaming floor and no outside facing windows.

What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders? The reason your ISP sucks now is because they incentivized 90% of all the people who knew what they were doing to quit or retire early, and backfilled them with piecework independent contractors who have to rush to make any money

Taking care of your teeth will save you thousands of dollars the sooner you start.

If you’re over 30, quote this with some life advice 🤌🏼

There's a number of folks, largely pundits, whose primary concern about Trump is neither his authoritarianism nor his amorality, but his defiance of convention and general uncouthness. Those are not the people who can, in any way, right the ship.

I hope those of you who celebrate Easter by going to church enjoy yourselves, and find the coats you left there on Christmas.
