A liter, that’s like a bottle of listerine right? Nbd

I didn’t read the article but ngl, “guy with a covered up Nazi tattoo recs a movie that’s about showing Nazi atrocities graphically“ is not a good vibe

Me and the boys dying in the battle of Coruscant because Joe Rogan convinced Anakin the Jedi were evil

2025 was a mirage of normalcy. 2026 is zooming closer to the 2024 nightmare scenario. I don’t think every disaster will maximally happen but we’re plummeting down the roller coaster in a way we weren’t last year

Telling small but easily disprovable lies is a massive red flag, in the classic definition of red flag

“What did you think this meant, vibes?” is a funny meme that comes from a really really not funny context

Like… she’s a PhD! It’s the highest level of education, she should have clear writing and her ideas should stand on their own without motte/bailey and without steelmanning. It’s purporting to be real scholarship, not a tumblr post about wanting to be a witch in the woods from Ghibli movies

Can’t even do a coup right anymore. No one wants to work.

It’s popular with republicans and the media treats republicans as the protagonist. Epstein was only treated as a scandal hurting Trump once republicans were upset about not releasing the files

Anakin: We’re achieving our military objectives
Padme: and your political objectives, right? …Right?

People born in the 50s are now 70+ years old. People who were working adults in the 1950s are gone now. Like I think being a kid in the 90s was pretty cool because I was a kid, I was not the adult paying for childcare

I would like to get off the roller coaster please

This is very moving

I’m not dooming but this is starting to feel more like WWI than WW3, just a massive cluster started by mistake that no one can back out of

LLMs are not alive but we’ve pretty much made C3PO real, which I couldnt have said 5 years ago, which gives me some pause. Like I don’t think Data can ever be real but we are one step closer and “is this alive if it’s just a computer” was the point of Measure of a Man, 1989

East coast, similar jump from like 3 to 3.40 average driving around

Up to 3.70 as I’m driving home!

Gas is up to 3.30

@theophite.bsky.social claude just pulled a “hi hungry, I’m dad” on me

Ah, I misread. the article sounds like not literal retail refunds, but lower tarrifs leading to lower prices going forward, which seems fine

I’d imagine it’s impossible to calculate or pointless to refund some fraction of a pass thru cost but I’ve heard that Costco’s defining traits are

-very profitable
-good at math

I want to get off the rollercoaster please

That sounds crazy, let me double check the headlines… uh…

Lots of grumbling out there about SATs or the usefulness of tests and grading, but organizing your time to study in a structured way is an important learned skill!

Theoretically, if you’re literate you can teach yourself anything, but there’s a lot of oomph in someone showing you, just to get past unfamiliarity and not knowing where to start. I still don’t know how to change the oil in my car because no one showed me how

This is the exact same thing as special pleading for trump. “Oh well voters already knew about it and objecting didn’t seem to do anything, so let’s move on“ But sometimes the voters did not know about a scandal because it was swept under the rug

I havent fully thought this through but there’s a Jewish idea that god in Genesis created the world using the Hebrew alphabet

Humans wrote the Bible
People worship the Bible
The Bible tells you not to worship it

LLMs are intriguing because they show something about the power of written language

My boss was raving about it because it helped him write a toast speech in 10 minutes instead of 3 hours. But I’d imagine for the average emails job it’s more like help with research, speed up making templates, not doing the work of 2 people in 1

Hey why’s the tatted marine only have 1 tattoo instead of a sleeve? Did something happen that would prevent him from getting more I wonder?

There are only 3-4 fad diets and we keep cycling through the same exact ones with new branding
