Betting the monolog will be the two Jack's covering Michael Jackson's Black or White.

Isn't this basically Super Atragon?

“But, as you see, it's a beautiful day, the Strait of Hormuz is open and people are having a wonderful time.”

My impression is that it's essentially like AI assisted pair programming.

Watching Politico get told they're sanewashing shit by the guy they're sanewashing is just excellent. Media cooked. Getting dunked on by the people they're protecting. We are in the post-dignity era of the press.

Polymarket uses financial asset trickery to pretend it's not gambling, but everyone knows it is. Instead of the financial asset trickery making it legal, maybe we should reverse it and and regulate all speculative financial instruments as strictly as we regulate gambling.

Happy Friday the 13th for to all who celebrate. Remember the reason for the season!

"Brown Furnace" sounds like a euphemism. Like a Dutch Oven that goes really wrong.

Oh, shit! @vicmmic.bsky.social is about to get blue shelled!

I love the idea that *this* US government, which has been nabbing landscapers and five year olds knows where Iranian sleeper cells are but just hasn’t gotten around to doing anything about it yet.

Whew. I'm glad I just purchased my sulfuric acid a couple of days ago. Now I can make that bright copper plating solution.

Fonda Lee's Green Bone Saga and Robert Jackson Bennett's Ana and Din mysteries, the third of which comes out in August

In celebration of the next chapter in Darth Nul’s story released in Star Wars: The Old Republic today, here’s the crossover you never asked for… #SWTOR

I can't wait for people to see what the team did with this one.

I thought it was one of those books that the business dudes liked. Or at least the movie.

Didn't any of these C-suite executives read Moneyball? Or at least watch it?

Okay. Easy fix? Stop making huge games that require a billion players to make money! The solution is to go back and hit all those genres that are largely forgotten by the deathmarch to AAAA+++ development. For the same number of developers, you could release 20 games and still make more money.

We're basically at that breaking point that was always predicted as teams got bigger and bigger. We're at a point where the games the executives want, to satisfy their investor masters, are not possible to make economically. If only there was a fix for this? (There is. It's easy. We all know it).

maybe I'm focusing on the wrong thing here but this is the wildest shit I've ever heard a white South African say and I study racism for a living

Notifications from the Amazon phone app. The headline is "You've got great taste. Battery Acid is waiting for you."

Yikes. This is a weird way to put this, Amazon App.

HARD SAME, BUD!

Welp. I think I've solved filibuster reform. Are any of my mutuals in a think tank or a Senate staffer? Maybe I need to get a meeting with James Talarico.

A request like this should be treated as absolute proof that this person has no business in space and needs to go through a process of proving competency in basic orbital physics before any further regulatory submissions

The newly formed Green Lantern corps go back for Batman because like the Legion, they want to be inspired by a marquee "present day" hero, but they get Robin and he's giving them a headache because he's got that yellow cape and was trained by Batman.

It's weird that the Green Lanterns don't exist in the 31st century with the Legion of Superheroes. Feels like if they were going to reestablish a space cop organization, maybe they go back in time and take Dick Grayson or someone? Like the Legion took Superboy, you see.

The scientific dodge about "biological males" and muscle development evaporates if you let kids get on puberty blockers, but...

Barro screaming at the kids in a T-ball game and demanding to see their genitals like a totally functional and normal human being.

Isn't this already more or less where the care is? Minors need signoff from parents for any medical treatment, so they de facto don't even get non-surgical gender affirming medical treatment without parental consent.
