Small silver lining, but there are probably a lot of young men and women from Texas walking around Chicago for their first time right now, realizing how beautiful and peaceful it is (especailly this time of year), counter to the admin's "warzone" narrative.

I think that, at least, is a good thing.

As a Bruce Campbell fan and someone who grew up in a home with a Spirit of 1776 print hanging on the wall how did I never see this intro

A moment of appreciation for the Battlefield franchise’s naming conventions. They truly do not give a fuck and I admire that.

Goofed the reply order somehow but this one was intended to be first, in case that wasn’t obvious

Ironic that he said that while saying this was a leftist and left ideologies, and defending Trump’s response to this, but he’s getting closer to the real issue at least.

I agree. The thing I do appreciate about the Utah gov’s most recent interview is that, while he still blamed the left explicitly, he did also say that social media tech companies and those running them carry the blame for dividing us and breaking down our social discourse.

Utah Governor Spencer Cox being praised for his “unifying” speeches while he goes out of his way to slip in cherry-picked , mischaracterized bits of “evidence” any chance he gets to imply that Tyler Robinson was a leftist. Incredible stuff.

RIP @linkedin.com job alerts. For the past 2 months my inbox has been flooded with Twine's incessant deluge of pay-to-play spam, with only the occasional posting from an actual, actionable company's listing.

Envato shut down its in-program extension in favor of more generative AI development.

Taking away something people actually use to push them something no one asked for. Masterful gambit.

Oh ZYNerman, where you gone run to?

History texts in 2075:

“Martial law was enacted after Big Balls was beaten up by a 15 year-old boy and girl.”

It strikes me that those who cry the loudest about “socialist handouts” are the ones who are due to receive the largest inheritances.

Conspiracy theory of the day: Spotify is getting paid by the powers that be to feed me sleepy, bland drivel on my Discover Weekly in order to sedate me

We are now left with the choice between a party that protects people who r*pe children, and one that protects people who murder them.

Pedo cabal or a genocidal regime — it’s your choice America!

(Just kidding of course. They both do both of those things.)

“The Epstein files are a distraction from the legislation Trump is trying to pass” urges Nancy Pelosi, as she and the dems do absolutely nothing to stop said legislation

I shared this note with the Washington Post team this morning:

I’m writing to let you know about a change coming to our opinion pages.

We are going to be writing every day in support and defense of two pillars: personal liberties and free markets. We’ll cover other topics too of course, but viewpoints opposing those pillars will be left to be published by others.

I can’t wait until my late-life dementia coincides with reality collapse.

Hell yeah. These were a staple at the LAN cafe I went to as a kid. The guy who worked there would begrudgingly get up from his WoW session to grab us 3 of these and heat us up McRibs in the microwave.

The plan?
