when I was a child, I thought smart people were in charge. when I got older, I realized you didn't have to be smart to be in charge. but the piece that was hardest to learn is that no one is really in charge at all. no one's going to fix it beyond us.

the conservative movement's roots is an alliance of business interests livid about the new deal, southern racists livid about the civil rights movement, and church ladies livid about the sexual revolution. scotus will continue unabated until they've rolled all those back (or democrats stop them)

I think it’s great how the supreme court increasingly resembles a failing tech company in its ability to fuck up even the stupider little things they used to be okay at while delivering products no one asked for but everyone is forced to use
At last, here's the full text of the accidentally posted Supreme Court EMTALA opinion draft, via Bloomberg News assets.bwbx.io/documents/us...

THE FACT THAT I CANNOT DO SOMETHING THAT USED TO TAKE FIVE MINUTES IN 2009 IS FUCKING DERANGED, DIE IN A FIRE APPLE
It's wild how I'm not generally a delusional person but every few months I freshly think "Hey I should try syncing my phone to my iTunes library again, maybe this time it'll work"

literally can't imagine seeing a movie where someone says "these are my two sons Scrotus and Rectus" and giving it less than 4.5/5 stars on letterboxd

He’s just an old man falling asleep and farting. He’s not a diabolical mastermind. He has no supernatural powers. He’s been yelling for his red caps to come overthrow the courthouse for weeks and three people wrapped in tinfoil have showed up. If we send Donald Trump to jail, he will go there.
I have an entire rant with several key points, but the gist is: Send Donald Trump to jail nothing bad will happen. There will be no riots, no demonstrations, nothing that can be done by the system or police or FBI or anyone to stop it. And once it happens, we’ll realize it was never scary.

Hi #WNBA fans of Bluesky, I created a guide to help you and your pals pick which WNBA team to support this year: no stats, just vibes. As the title suggests, it is incomplete & biased. (Thread, obvi)

students kettling the police, students using their school-mandated active shooter training to barricade the police…it’s almost as if this generation has been forced to learn from all the violence enacted on them and is using that knowledge against their oppressors

Caitlin Clark just got drafted first overall then got off stage and Jake from State Farm immediately gave her a hat and said “I’m proud of you.” Jake you do not get to say that buddy. You’re Jake from State Farm. Respectfully.

don’t need an AI to make art for me. i’ve got that covered. i enjoy it. i’m good at it. i’d like an AI that does my taxes and saves for retirement. but the guys in charge of AI don’t pay taxes, don’t have to worry about retirement but can’t make art. so that’s the only kind of AI we’re getting.

How to filter out AI Images in Google Image Search. Sharing this with my students so I figured I'd also share it with everyone here. Hopefully this image is still relevant given Google's changes. Save this on your computer or phone and refer to it as needed.

this student who thinks biden should die is obviously bad but i went to college with many kids who thought obama was a literal monster prophesied in the bible to bring about the end of the world and somehow this did not kick off years of panicked bedwetting from america’s most boring editors.
It is literally scolding a random college student *by name* for having bad opinions. This is the magazine that published 400 screeds against "cancel culture" bsky.app/profile/moon...

As a culture we need a steady diet of ape movies. Big apes, talking apes, mischievous apes. Our soul yearns for their antics.

It is both funny and instructive how eager so many powerful individuals and institutions with massively grandiose understandings of their own significance have been to discard every value they've ever professed or pretended to in order to protect the dumbest, shittiest rich guy of his generation.
