Well that’s the whole trick. He managed to do so many of these things at once, they couldn’t successfully dogpile on anything. Doing 1/10th gets the dogpile, the repetition because they can fixate on one thing. 10/10 gets the attention apparatus so overwhelmed, it comes out as noise.

The most glaring double standard in American politics today is that if a Democrat said 1/10th about GOP-leaning areas what this guy says about cities on the daily there'd be a media dogpile so swift and vicious there'd be nothing left of their bones for the hyenas to pick at.

Pizzas seven and eight. After accidentally creating Pizza the Hut last time, I regrouped. I ditched the stupid stone and switched to cast iron. I went hard on the olive oil. Best pizzas yet.

Pizzas five and six. I fucked up. Somehow I’m getting worse at this. Pizza five wouldn’t slide off the peel, spilled onto the stone, left a burnt tumor of cheese on the stone, stuck to the stone on removal. Gave up on the stone for six and cooked it on a baking sheet. It was mediocre.

Food, man. Food is so much better than it was in 1986. All of it. Poor-people food, restaurant food, fresh food, frozen food. Food is just a hell of a lot better.

15,000 years ago, in one of the the earliest settled communities in the world, a child collected fine clay from the slow-moving river by her home. She then committed an act familiar to all inveterate play-doh enthusiasts; rolling and and pinching the squishy clay into tiny round balls.

Someone had just emailed me on a Friday night to ask if I have any thoughts to share on AI in digital govt and I think my answer is that we should focus on making basic services work for everyone and stop worrying about AI

A lot of AI and cybersecurity stuff is pretty complicated, but this latest stuff from Anthropic and OpenAI isn’t; it’s basically like if you were testing bombs and didn’t notice that instead of blowing them up in the desert you were blowing them up in a neighborhood where people live.

We've gone from "Hot Girl Summer" to "Burning Hot Wildfire and Diarrhea Summer" in only a few short years. I'm sure that means something, but I'll leave that up to you.

huh the only fast casual restaurant that's thriving hates AI wonder if that means anything

Was looking up As Good as It Gets to see which Oscars it won and I'm obsessed with that tagline, which sounds like graffiti in a horror survival game

I feel like this is a pattern with right-wingers, what one generation understands as a useful lie becomes a truth. The clearest example is “originalism,” which Robert Bork and Antonin Scalia knew was a made-up thing you could use to overturn Roe v. Wade, but Neil Gorsuch actually believes in

Me: I had the WORST day. Nothing can come close Katy Perry, recently trapped in a giant bottle because fans refused to roll her towards the stage: Hm

That’s because all the solutions proposed were “we should have some Authority verify all facts” and not “we should break the power of those peddling falsehoods at scale”

the reason for this shift is republicans launched an all out war on truth-telling and democrats have sat back and done nothing about it

Cable news only makes sense if you view it as a wrestling segment without the wrestling, with people playing somewhat predictable roles of faces and heels to elicit a response but not actually doing anything to make the world better

I wrote about how much Americans wagered on sports betting in 2025 and how it’s more than they spent on movies, art, museums and music combined. Read my article @fortunemagazine.bsky.social fortune.com/2026/07/26/g...

Soccer is the best sport because we have undergone a of years of evolution to produce hands, and then we were like… what if we didn’t have hands? This is the epitome of play in the most fundamental sense of the term.
