I think the @nytimes.com is just too old to be covering politics now. Its ability to handle the rigor and complexity of modern campaigns is obviously not there anymore. Put it out to pasture so younger newspapers can do the job.

you can't even perform The King in Yellow, thereby summoning the dark Lord Hastur from Carcosa (may the black stars cloak him) anymore, because of Woke

Here's a thought to simmer on your mental stovetop: Unconditional Basic Income isn't just about putting money in more pockets and security in more souls. It's about acknowledging that our greatest resource isn't gold, oil, or data—it's human potential. Unleashing that? Priceless.

When "tech" meant faster computers and smaller phones, it was exciting, you wanted to know what they were going to come up with next. Now it's a bunch of assholes trying to figure out new ways to charge you a subscription to look at the shittiest ads you can imagine

@straczynski.bsky.social thank you for Babylon 5. I'm watching it for the third time, and enjoying it all over again. The depth of character is so much more than I picked up the first two times.

Roses are red And can be other colours too Colour is actually our brains trying to impose a sense of order on the bombardment of chaos that is our perception of a random, uncaring universe As is love, if we're honest And don't get me started on poetry #HappyValentines

I’m trying to turn my time online from “being mad at the dumbest dipshits alive” to “being super jazzed by people who I have never met’s weird hobbies” and it’s been going pretty well and my mental health is a lot better

Step 1: create a company that produces a valuable good or service, at a reasonable price. Step 2: pay all employees a livable wage with good health care and time off. Step 3: there is no step 3. That’s it. That’s the skeet.

The Ocean Cleanup is bad. I have yet to meet a single credentialed ocean plastic pollution expert who thinks "drag a giant net through the ocean and scoop out the plastic" is a good idea, and I've been asking for a decade. Stop supporting feel-good-but-harmful pseudoscientific nonsense.
The Dark Side of Ocean Cleanup Technologyslate.com Some marine biologists think the trash-collecting machines are harming more ocean organisms than they’re helping.

I seriously wish there was at least one techbro out there who'd stop wasting time trying to scam people with AI and just make a goddamn printer that works.
