Legitimately thrilled to get this in the mail today. Put a smile on my face in spite of everything. The Onion, everyone!

The classic "sickos" image, a cartoon guy standing outside a window, looking in with a black long sleeve shirt with "sickos" prints on it. The image is printed four times in a pop art style, with each panel having its own color scheme.

Happy anniversary! Marriage is indeed quite cool.

Between branches of government and the rise of AI, there seems to be a curious trend of people wanting no responsibility at all, to happily cede it to bad faith or black box, and just hope for The Best. It's apathy as a lifestyle.

It's incredible the extent to which Congress just utterly refuses to defend itself. You'd think for entirely self-interested reasons you would stridently oppose having the power of the purse arbitrarily ripped from you, ya know?

Why would you allow yourself to become the Roman Senate circa 27 BC.

Unconstitutionally taking money that the law says must be spent on one purpose & using it for something else—when it's to establish personalist control over the FUCKING MILITARY—is about as dangerous a constitutional crisis/failure as you can imagine

There is some psychology here we just haven't been able to answer.

Life is just becoming more and more convinced that capital absolutely HATES workers and wishes they would all drop dead, despite needing them to purchase their ever-worsening product.

And if I'm dipshit drunk on the pink perfume
I am the man in the fucking moon

I will not join the Teams meeting until enough people are on that it automatically mutes me.

The Enhance we needed

I like when I get emails like "Get up to $500 when you move your entire life over to our bank, and also open a savings account with $30,000."

"The hundreds of billions of dollars companies are investing in AI now account for an astonishing 40 per cent share of US GDP growth this year... In a way, then, America has become one big bet on AI."

America is now one big bet on AI

It’s seen as the magic fix for every threat to the US economy

As I said months ago, the right answer is KOKOMO, for a tropical resort-set horror movie.

I think about the decades of being told to recycle, conserve energy, save fuel, etc etc, and now we watch AI data centers spool up and just DEVOUR the planet for fuck all.
