Hollow as you figured

Lanterns was so ass. The hype it’s getting is crazy to me. It makes no sense to do a “prestige” green lantern show and have it be a murder mystery set in bumfuck Nebraska with no real aliens and story exploring generational trauma. Like what the fuck are we doing here??

Former “lunchroom chum” turned student representative reported to the principal today that the teacher collaborated with the class tattletale to put me in time out; says I got a “raw deal” and shouldn’t have been barred from recess.

This is what I mean about how we have to become snobs. When a bitch says shit like this to you, the move is to immediately become very mean, and laugh at them, and say out loud that you don’t respect them, things of that nature, things Ezra Klein would never do

Ezra Klein asked Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang about AI making kids worse at math and reading. Huang’s reply: “Does it matter?” Then he said he doesn’t know his own address or phone number. “We’re going to lose some fine intellectual dexterity.” www.nytimes.com/2026/09/23/o...

So the message of this research out of China, where you were seeing a lot of kids using A.I. to help them, was that when they were using the A.I., they were getting things done faster. But it turned out that the skills they were learning were not holding, that their actual personal performance, at least in the way we traditionally measure it, was degrading.

What do you think when you hear that?

The last part — I completely agree. Try to get a kid to do long division right now. The multiplication table is starting to be forgotten. Doing square roots, my goodness. Basic math is being forgotten. Does it matter?

That’s my question for you.

Yeah. I don’t think it does. I don’t think it does.

But there must be some set of skills that matter.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. But maybe not those. We’re going to discover new ones. Just maybe not those.

There are a lot of skills that don’t matter. My first confession, I actually don’t know my address.

Humoring conservatives & acting like they make good points over the last 30 years brought us here. You never have to listen to them for the rest of our lives. It's time to treat career arsonists with the contempt they've earned instead of imagining a fake world where they're reasonable interlocutors

Absolute Green Arrow: I liked the first issue but the following 3 I’ve read since are straight up bad I think. “Green arrow assassinates pedo billionaires who are doing resident evil experiments plus it’s also a mystery who he is” could work as a story but it feels so rushed and underbaked.

Live game day threads on Reddit are so funny because if the team is winning it’s like “these boys are gods among men. I don’t care about the rest of the season, winning this single game has made my entire year. We may never lose again with talent this magnificent.” The same guy when his team loses:
