Northwestern and Columbia being famous for journalism and bending over for Trump seems a little too on the nose these days
This is the second largest payout from a private university to the Trump admin yet, second only to Columbia’s $200m

Sitting next to my Eagles obsessed mother in law and she’s doing and saying stuff that makes this look like child’s play. Like I’m afraid to even post it for fear of someone alerting the authorities.

And there's a whole article you can read after the headline, too! Here it is.

Microsoft's head of AI doesn't understand why people don't like AI, and I don't understand why he doesn't understand because it's pretty obvious
Is it really "mindblowing" that people are skeptical of software that consistently doesn't do the things we're told it can do?

Subscribe to the Onion print edition, it's worth every penny.
Here's a note I sent to our members about what we did with their money, and why we expect the Onion to outgrow the Washington Post.
We keep doing weird, hard shit — taunting ICE, yelling at Congress for not taunting ICE, buying bad websites — when nobody else does.
Our members keep getting papers.

we were at my sil/bil’s today and their toilets backed up because of grease in the pipe down the road from them, plumber was indeed called
WIFE: I learned that the day after Thanksgiving is the busiest day of the year for plumbers...
ME: Because everyone clogs the toilets?
WIFE (eyes narrowing): ... because people dump turkey grease down the sink.

Some Thanksgiving thoughts...
This year, as we get ready to bring on *a lot* of people to help us create the world of The Lands Remaining, I'm thinking about how we've hired quite literally hundreds of freelancers since 2016, and always at a much higher pay rate than what bigger publishers pay.(1/)
