One of the many reasons AI can't produce good writing is it can't hate its own writing. It can't think to itself "Maybe I'm illiterate" during the writing process. And that's essential

It may sound radical, but if one guy has so much wealth and power that he can use the large newspaper he owns to publicly threaten to ruin a service we all rely on, presumably as a bargaining tactic to get lower rates, we probably need to tax that guy until he can't do that anymore.
Exclusive: Amazon has long been USPS’s top customer, providing over $6 billion in annual revenue in 2025.
But Amazon may give up its long-standing partnership with USPS to deliver packages itself, which could spell disaster for the mail agency.

How about make a tradeable asset out of suck my balls?
The co-founder of Kalshi says: " The long-term vision is to financialize everything and create a tradable asset out of any difference in opinion."

Three episodes into The Chair Company and I enjoy the paranoid comedy as much as the cavalcade of weirdo supporting characters.

The damned in hell are not more powerful for the fact that the fires do not consume them; it is part and parcel of their torment.

It will probably be a long time before I try running a Daggerheart game (looking forward to playing, though).
Still, it's really fun reading through the cards enjoying the art in and design of the core rulebook.

It's hard to express what it meant to watch Maurice, Natalia, Celeste, and Rhea tell their stories—in their own voices—this morning.
The segment revealed a brutal reality: homelessness at this scale isn't about personal failure. It's the result of policy choices and systems built to exploit people.

I remember walking by Chuck Schumer at the finish line of the Brooklyn Half-Marathon earlier this year.
In retrospect, I should have taken a moment to tell him, "Fuck you. Retire, bitch."

Finally saw Malcolm X, and glad I got to see it on the big screen. A biopic the overcomes the biopic trap of oversimplification, with Denzel and Spike both operating on another level.
Honorable mention:
