A Palestinian father has opened an indoor play centre in Gaza to give children a sense of normality as they continue to endure near-daily Israeli attacks, with free entry for families who cannot afford to pay.

NBC News is calling the race for El-Sayed. The AP says too close to call.

NBC News@nbcnews.com · 11h ago

Abdul El-Sayed has won Michigan’s slugfest of a Democratic Senate primary, NBC News projects, clinching the nomination over Rep. Haley Stevens and establishing a Midwest beachhead for a progressive left on the march this midterm cycle.

Daaaamn. “AI is the asbestos we're shovelling into the walls of our technological society. Our descendants will spend generations digging it out again, and the longer the bubble goes on without popping, the longer it will take to repair the damage." www.thenerve.news/p/cory-docto...

Cory Doctorow: The people who tell you ‘AI is changing everything’ are lying

It has become impossible to tell managers mesmerised by artificial intelligence that the tools are not, in fact, helpful. So employees just play along with the fiction to keep their jobs, writes our t...

A World Where No One Will Notice You Rubbing Your Dick Against Them

Wrong, all wrong

Got Wendy's With lettuce Bring it on, I DARE YOU

Remembering the time my science teacher in high school let me do an impromptu presentation in front of the class cause she thought I was gonna talk about Mars but instead I started talking about aliens and after I sat back down she reprimanded me about it in front of the class and I wanted to die

Finally my 100 Bluesky friends can talk to me all at once

Update: group chats can now host up to 100 members.

The way that everyone sees fantom AI in original work now is such a fucked up secondary downstream AI nightmare consequence. People can’t critically identify real art any longer and so everything gets accused of not being original. I don’t know how we climb out of this hole.

I swear if they take both the Blade film AND the Blade game from me I will go scorched earth

Guys will listen to male influencer bullshit about needing to have a six pack and manipulate everyone and meanwhile women will go “you know who is the sexiest fucking guy I’ve ever seen?” and post this

Very excited to get Brand New Day spoilers in an article title this week 😍

Trying to read more. I‘m slow as shit cause I don’t read for very long per day but still. I am on a search to find the scariest book ever written. But no one seems to agree which it is and…I guess that makes sense

everyday the news is like: "polls show voters want trump flayed alive 55-35." "new busload of elites pulls up to white house to drink trump's warmed over piss"

When you got them bipeppus in the pippus smh

i hate that it seems like there is a new lolcow being produced every week, and we're supposed to be under the impression that they are the worst person to ever exist...only to find out that they're just extremely cringe at worst, but ultimately harmless outside of the court of social media 😒

Daily reminder that horror doesn’t have to be scary. Horror has many subgenres, and some of them have nothing to do with fear. Sometimes it’s a slasher chasing after teens, other times it’s a grim reaper animatronic in Walmart doing a spooky laugh

today's youth will never have the experience of scrolling the 40 or so channels you had at 1 AM on a friday night looking for something interesting or horny and catching the back half of eXistenZ without having any idea what it was

It’s hard to explain but tv was better when you couldn’t watch the show you wanted whenever you wanted to watch it and most of the shows were worse and the TVs were worse and the entire experience was worse, that’s when it was better

The divide between normie white supremacists and chronically online white supremacists is wild. One side hates Asian people and calls them a threat to the West, while the other side is obsessed with Chinese gacha games and trying desperately for Japan to notice them

THIS!! In my opinion our collective idea about what is an “Important book” and an “Important film” is also wildly misguided and archaic and that idea needs to be expanded significantly because, as Martha says, joy is important too! Humans contain multitudes!!!

Martha Smith@mostlymartha.bsky.social · 3d ago

I used to read every Important Book and see every Important film. These days, if I wish to experience grim hopelessness, I will simply interact with reality. The truth is, suffering is not the only profound human experience, and I'm tired of the only art that counts being the sad shit.

This 360 tsunami preparedness video from Japan somehow has the perfect retro PS2 aesthetic

POV

Nimarata Nikki Randhawa ran as Nikki Haley, Piyush Amrit Jindal ran as Bobby Jindal, Raphael Edward Cruz ran as Ted Cruz, & who knows what JD Vance's actual name is. But yes the real issue is Dr. Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed is running as Dr. Abdul El-Sayed. Every MAGA accusation is a confession.

Being bi and always hearing evil discourse about how bi people suck it's always like Bi person:🧍 Everyone: BOOOO YOU NEED TO LEAVE.
