I don't like kink-shaming but I feel like we gotta kink shame someone who is into "AI-generated robot porn."

Like genuinely one of my favorite Postseason moments was the Jeffrey Maier incident back in '96 and it's solely because Bob Uecker saw it and screamed off-mic while Bob Costas was like "WELL WHAT HAPPENS HERE?!??!?!?!"

I know it’s the most obvious thing in the world but it’s really sad that so many people have absolutely no desires or dreams in life except to accumulate money and our entire world is becoming a fucking pit because of it

The Mariners announced some new food items for the ALCS and all I have to say is Huckle-Nutting is what happens across the PNW whenever Cal Raleigh hits a home run.

Huckle-Nut Cannoli – Crispy rosemary-scented ricotta cannoli shells filled with huckleberry sweet cream, finished with toasted hazelnuts and drizzled in smoked huckleberry caramel. A Northwest twist on an Italian classic.

I opened up the 2032 season of my Mississippi State dynasty getting beat by a a UCLA team that was ranked No. 5 after making the Playoff in 2031 with Arian Foster still there as the head coach. That game is hilarious.

If Major League Soccer doesn’t care enough to watch their own games in order to write about them, why should we watch their games?

As someone whose time freelancing for MLSsoccer was a vital step in my career progression, and someone who generally gleans insight from the observations of others:

This sucks so hard.

MLS is using generative AI to write match recaps. Writers used to get paid freelance rates to do that. Hssssss.

thiel, man, what the fuck are you talking about

He describes the plot of Watchmen, a 1986 graphic novel involving superheroes grappling with moral questions about humanity against the backdrop of impending nuclear war:

The antihero Ozymandias, the antichrist-type figure, is sort of an early-modern person. He believes this will be a timeless and eternal solution – eternal world peace. Moore is sort of a late-modern. In early modernity, you have ideal solutions, ‘perfect’ solutions to calculus. In late modernity, things are sort of probabilistic. And at some point, he asks Dr Manhattan whether the world government is going to last. And he says that ‘nothing lasts forever.’ So you embrace the antichrist and it still doesn’t work.

Thiel later finds biblical meaning in the manga One Piece, discussing how he believes it represents a future where an antichrist-like one-world government has repressed science. He believes that the hero, Monkey D Luffy, represents a Christlike figure.

In One Piece, you are set in a fantasy world, again sort of an alternate earth, but it’s 800 years into the reign of this one-world state. Which, as the story unfolds, gradually gets darker and darker. You sort of realize, in my interpretation, who runs the world and it’s something like the antichrist. There’s Luffy, a pirate who wears a red straw hat, sort of like Christ’s crown of thorns. And then towards the end of the story, transforms into a figure who resembles Christ in Revelation.

Thiel, along with a researcher and writer at Thiel Capital, explored these ideas at greater length in an essay for the religious journal First Things earlier this month.
