consider a technology that supposedly simulates intelligence but in fact only convinces humanity to subordinate its own intelligence to the simulation
AI filmmaking is completely unserious.

You've got people with $30k begging the internet for ideas by next week because they have nothing of their own to say, it's just slop for the sake of slop. Embarrassing state of affairs.

israel is expected to have an excellent biathlon team in 2030 after learning that the targets don't shoot back
February 17, 2026 at 5:41 PM
catching up on this morning's biathlon and shooting targets is cool but imo if they really want to represent military training the last lap should be that hey should have to catch and shoot a deserter

my kid is old enough to get this so he was willing to take me seriously when I told him to start carrying his passport because if the ice stormtroopers start grabbing people near his school and he gets swept up eventually someone will look at it
I think kids growing up in the Trump era should be told clearly that they are being raised under a regime that espouses white supremacy as if it is a legitimate politics, the same as any other.

the way it manifests across time can be wild. my father, a white Jewish guy in a mostly POC union (1199) was so mad that the union endorsed Jackson in 1988. "Hymietown" haunted him. But, just a few years later,
Jesse Jackson's one of those people where you can't read about him as a historical figure and fully understand what a huge deal he was if you weren't there for it.

before he went insane - and while he was still in the nfl - herschel walker was a brakeman on the 1992 us olympic two-man bobsled team
If you watch bobsled in the Olympics and think “how does one get into that sport,” the answer is they are basically all former college track athletes and football players who got invited to a bobsled combine by word of mouth. The men’s team can be a real treat for Remembering Some Guys.

i have not moved my car since january except to move it from behind a wall of snow from the plowing to the "clean" side two weeks ago. one might think this proves that i do not need a car and that's mostly true yet you can tax me all you want but you will take my keys out of my cold, dead hands.

The Boston press did this to Roger Clemens when they wanted to make him look especially stupid after he falsely claimed he had been misquoted and the Pittsburgh media did this to Roberto Clemente (and called him Robby over his objection) because they were racist.
Have you ever once seen the New York Times quote Trump like this?

ordinarily i'd be appalled by this procedure but i am having a lot of trouble getting upset in this specific circumstance
Reading about the appeal of one of the men made me feel like I don't understand how courts work.

www.bbc.com/news/article...

It's like... essentially a full retrial with live witnesses, but with a jury that includes judges(?), and they also get to revisit sentence even though it's his appeal?
Man who appealed Pelicot rape conviction handed longer jail term
A French court increases by a year the jail term of the only man who challenged his conviction for raping Gisèle Pelicot.
