yes, no one is entitled to a job doing X Thing Forever, but I do think people 100% deserve to feel frightened about the prospect of never being able to find a decent-paying job that isn’t actively degrading again - lots of factors, LLMs included, are making people reasonably fear this
The abusive, racist response of these neighbors to *a bunch of loud kids* is so disturbing because feels like everything that is wrong with this country in one 7-second video nutshell.
A tiny purple and white flower has appeared among a thousand little green shoots.

A badass picture of Cynthia Rothrock making fists
As I traditionally did on an abandoned platform I would like to point out that International Women's Day is Cynthia Rothrock's birthday. Happy both!

9 games that made me my9games.com
Keaton earns it better.
Agreed. The visual look is so iconic, that it's a little like Mickey Mouse (the least funny of the big animated cartoon guys.)
For me, also, it's Chaplin's winsome melancholy. It's like, 'You know him and love him, the LITTLE TRAMP!' *Chaplin comes in, smiles at a child, smells a flower*
Oh that's good.
I’ve never been a huge Chaplin fan, but… there’s a standalone bit where he’s idly trying to tip a little bit of wood up with his cane and stomp it through a grate with his foot… it lasts something like six minutes and I remember it as one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen.
yyyyyyyyessss? I mean it's not a drama?
There are parts of PLAYTIME where I've laughed out loud, but it's usually more in delight than at an actual joke.
Bernie Sander’s 2028 litmus test would strangle America’s golden goose
Surprise! The Jeff Bezos-owned Washington Post is against my 5% billionaire wealth tax. I wonder why?

My 9th grade science teacher moonlighted in a liquor store, which I found out like 6 years later when I bought beer from him
Entertaining millions of moviegoers is hard, entertaining a few investors is easy

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist
Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.
yes, YES, one of the iconic creatures of my childhood (second only to our friend the geoduck)
Overwhelming "LOT of deaths for a candy factory tour" vibes in this speech.

That cat is loved, deeply. I'm sorry, and I hope you can find some comfort.
That thing where you're feeling too tired and lazy to commit to something you oughta do -- but then the coffee shop's sound system starts playing this song and you know that you're gonna do what you gotta do.
I don’t need every person in the country to carry a whistle, but I do want every person who thinks a whistle could be beneficial to have one and not feel guilty using it in a confirmed sighting.
