Wondering if Donald doesn’t have one. That would maybe explain why he’s so miserable.

yearly reminder to people insisting that we view Christopher Columbus as "a man of his time" that *the people responsible for the Spanish Inquisition* thought Columbus was out of pocket

Thomas Lecaque @tlecaque.bsky.social · 21h

Christopher Columbus was dragged back to Spain in chains by a crusading knight, convicted of tyranny and immeasurable cruelty, pardoned by Isabella but banned from returning to Hispaniola.

Fuck Columbus.

Did Sam Altman’s AI write this headline?

So that's where we're at.

Sam Altman Says If Jobs Gets Wiped Out, Maybe They Weren't Even "Real Work" to Start With

Worried that AI will destroy work? Well, Sam Altman asks if you've considered what a farmer from half a century ago thinks of your job, first.

Sometimes the breathing techniques and relaxation meditation fail, and the only way to defeat insomnia is to post shit like this until the Monday morning podcasts go online.

Today in Portland, a fed shooting pepper balls from the roof of the ICE facility was so eager to aim for people’s heads, that after shooting one photographer in the head and another in the upper arm, they accidentally shot a DHS agent in the head. This photo shows the moment of impact;

Riot cops standing a street with less-lethal weapons, and one in a gas mask has a cloud of pepper dust around his helmet.

‘Kiss of the Spider Woman’ earned $840,000 in its opening weekend.

The film had a $34 million dollar budget.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

Feels like the difference between a working-class aligned entertainer (Lorde) and owning-class/ruling-class aligned entertainer (Bono). Even Lorde's pre-show music was Bjørk, Alanis Morrissette, and some of her lesser-known contemporaries, instead of The Immaculate Collection or something.

I was a little record store nerd, so I'd already heard a bootleg from an early Joshua Tree tour show, and didn't have to wait for Rattle and Hum to know the pulling a person out of the audience to play guitar bit was completely rehearsed. Plus U2 played 2 whole Beatles albums before coming onstage 🤮
