I know most of the focus is on RFK Jr.'s weird horny texts, but the news that he used to spam Bill Nye with anti-vax weirdness and Bill was like, "Dude, you're you're confusing correlation for causation" is the only RFK text-message news I will ever need.

One thing about the end of the latest piece from Ryan Lizza about how corrupt Olivia Nuzzi is: the artist mentioned here is the same one who Vanity Fair commissioned to do the "abstract nude" painting of Nuzzi

I’m not saying that what the AI companies and their backers want is to render us all brainless and docile, but I’ll admit that if that was their goal, then this would be a good way to go about it.

OK I HAVE TO SAY THIS: Captain Phasma was touted as the Sequel Trilogy Bobba Fett and people complained she just looked cool, did nothing, and died; as opposed to Bobba Fett who *checks notes* looked cool, did nothing, and died.

In newly leaked audio, Peter Thiel admits he urged JD Vance to ignore Pope Leo XIV on moral questions — including the ethical development of AI.
He goes even further, branding Leo “the woke American pope” and suggesting he’s a tool of the Antichrist.

If you find an indie game you like, PLEASE talk about it on social media. You can make a developer go from being completely unknown to actually able to make money just by spreading the word.
The fact that itch posted this and not even an hour later I got a bunch of new sales proves how big it is when other people talk about your games.
It can literally be a life changing events.
When John Harper made a nice quote tweet about Breathless, hundreds of people looked at the game.

The stock market's gains are being overwhelmingly driven by seven Big Tech companies who have invested heavily in AI, which has made tech oligarchs even wealthier.
But when that AI bubble bursts, the rest of us will be stuck holding the bag.
Be warned.
