I don’t see enough people talking about the amazing sound design so far this season of “Pluribus.”

The hallow sounds of vacant spaces really drive home the unsettling nature of the post-‘happiness’ world. To say nothing of the obscene stretches of episodes without a stitch of dialogue.

The way my children struggle to get out of bed M-F, only to hop up as early as possible on the weekend will never cease to confound me.

I rocked with “The Bachelor” hard in ‘97, but Elgin gotta leave the texturizer alone already!

fun fact: in the Pluribus universe, everyone knows what's in the Epstein files

Anyone else grossed put by the prospect of an ‘agentic’ Windows experience?

I know there are others out there…

“Hiking the Appalachian Trail” Mark Sanford?!

Nuzzi was down bad-bad, huh?

Oh, look! The canary is dead. I wonder what that means for the rest of the coal mine.
Fox guest on how to save money during the holidays:

"Remember, adults don't need gifts. Focus on the people in your life who are aged 3 to 18. Grandma doesn't need slippers. If they don't live by you, don't get them a gift."

“Pluribus” takes the idealized dream of AI: all data linked, diffused agents coordinating and transferring skills, communication perfected as to render writing obsolete, the extreme automation of benevolent intelligence — and shows how, even if achieved perfectly, it’s still a horror story.

Watching Vince Gilligan go stupid with Apple’s money on practical sequences and crowd choreography is hilarious.

One of the things most quietly grieved amongst practitioners is the half-century of history and work in learning systems and technologies which have historically been categorized as “AI”, and they’ve all been run over by LLMs, and by the hype cycles the industry has *built* around LLMs. A huge loss.
There are quite a few ethical and justice oriented AI people who talk about having lifelong love for a vision of AI that is being trashed by the current thing, and I wonder if any of those positive visions have been articulated somewhere? What is it ppl think AI is supposed to be instead of this?

AAAAAANNNDDDD there’s the MTG we’re all familiar with.

Fellow nerds: Rolled credits on FF7 Remake Intergrade this week and I’ve got FF7 Rebirth downloaded and ready to roll, BUT part of me feels compelled to push through the Yuffie interMISSION chapter.

Would I be missing anything special if I skipped it?

Denzel is about to sound like the only Wakandan to spend his gap year in Mt. Vernon and we all will be 100% here for it.

Lumines Arise.

I need these kids to go to bed so I can REALLY get into it.

Eye and ear candy.

Do any of my people have a game that feel *enhanced* when drunk or otherwise altered?

“Tetris Effect” is a reliable go-to to unwind and I feel like I improve at fighters when I’m not overthinking it.

The way my nerves are shot at this trampoline park…my big girl is enjoying her friend’s birthday and I’m regretting leaving my headphones in the car.

To call these places overstimulating would be an understatement.

I’m a fan of Terrence Thornton the wordsmith, so I can say without a shadow of a doubt the man is *intentionally* performing a sort of incompetence around involved parenting.

“Let God Sort ‘Em Out” is one of my fac releases of the year, but the Gen X is showing HARD on Push with that post.
Pusha T and his wife Virginia are expecting a baby boy, Spring 2026. What a lovely message he wrote to her.

An Opinion Editor from the Washington Post was let go and nary a peep from many of her peers.

We know the game.
Can you imagine a woman of color, say a Black reporter, who was caught in an affair with a Presidential candidate THAT SHE WAS COVERING, getting completely rehabilitated less than a year later with a cushy new job and puff piece profile in the paper of record?

Nope.

Gonna be honest and say I don’t want to spend the day reading people quote posting each other and hankering on about how this or that person is having the wrongly calibrated reaction to a wildly surreal and massive info dump during what has already been a surreal year

The American penny died on Wednesday in Philadelphia. It was 232. The cause was irrelevance and expensiveness, the Treasury Department said. Nothing could be bought any more with a penny, as the cost to mint the penny had risen to more than 3 cents. nyti.ms/48bFd5K
