I really like the movie Nightcrawler.

What does that say about me? I’m thinking, “Nothing good.”

I don’t understand people who want their AirPods to announce notifications.

I replaced my Apple Watch with a Whoop 5.0 for many reasons, but the fact it doesn’t give me notifications at all is high on the list.

Why open your door when there’s a hurricane battering your windows already?

I don't understand why I see things so differently. I see a health insurance industry that thinks it's entitled to charge people 1/3rd of their income for healthcare. That industry shouldn't be "fixed." It should be burned to the ground and its ashes pissed on.

If you rename the Department of Defense the Department of War, then bomb fishing boats in the Caribbean, and shoot an unarmed priest in the head with a pepper bullet, you should automatically be barred from receiving the Nobel Peace Prize for the rest of your life.

The Democrats have to focus on healthcare above all else. Most of them don't have spines which is a serious medical condition.

Imagine knowing – being absolutely sure – that when you die, 65 or 70% of the country and the world will celebrate your death like nothing they've ever celebrated anything before.

I still remember when Sam Altman said that for genAI to be a success they need ten trillion dollars in investment cash, free access to all our stolen art, and a new "miracle" source of electricity.

And somehow that did not put even a slight damper on the race to sink hundreds of billions into a pit

A remarkable fact I've learned about the current Harvest Supermoon is that if you observe it natural surroundings and gaze up at it in awestruck reverence for long enough, there's a good chance you'll walk into a tree.

EPSTEIN used young boys too.
Yes. He. Did.
Another HUGE reason they are fighting this.

An actual hot take: Too many authors are afraid of editors watering down their voice or whatever and not afraid enough of editors letting you put any old slop on the page.

Could backfire if the person thinks the employee gave him or herself a huge tip, tho.

I was just told by someone that it’s my fault we’d gotten overbid by boomer parents buying houses with cash for their millennial kids.

Yes, that crucial life choice of being born to wealthy parents.

Sorry about that, lawyers. All that stuff you learned in law school doesn't matter anymore.

Unlike doctors. All the stuff we learned in med school and thought we'd never have to actually know about is now becoming very critical again (measles, diphtheria, pertussis)

Something Trump and co don’t seem to understand is that the surveillance state works both ways.

Someone will always be recording the horrors, and those horrors will be played back in court at your prosecutions.
