Well, everyone knows Custer died at Little Bighorn. What this bluesky profile presupposes is...maybe he didn't? / Architect / Washed-up dad / Expat in The Netherlands / He/him / Roll on Columbia.

Fake memories is abusive
The comments on this are all about how sweet it is and I feel insane. Using AI to make fake memories of your grandma with dementia and telling her they happened and then filming her reaction

At least they’re the dumbest people alive, it’s the only hope we have.
I mean yeah it’s an authoritarian takeover but can we take some comfort in the fact that the people doing it are INSANELY stupid?

Rick Steves continues to be the best.
It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

An administration run by the dumbest people you can imagine.
It is legitimately hilarious that they couldn't figure out what to do with the "The" before JFK's name so it looks even more tacked on.
I’m currently outside of the Kennedy Center:

it's actually kinda funny in a way to get to the finish line of curing cancer and having the government go eh you know what. never mind
A tiny trial in New York has shown that personalized mRNA vaccines can provoke massive, lasting immune responses against pancreatic cancer, even as sweeping federal cuts now threaten the fragile labs required to produce them.

ultimately, no one even grieved Charlie Kirk. he was just another thing for the worst people on earth to get outraged over. and when the outrage of real events wasn't enough, they invented new ones.
not even his wife saw his death as anything other than an opportunity.

my read is they were trying to whip up the usual frenzy, but then the effort got blown up by Candace Owens saying The Jews did it
It’s kind of incredible how little has been published about this guy and how little conservatives seem to care. Did people just forget these people were screeching for civil war when they thought he was a liberal?

It's fitting that the cover on AI mindlessly apes an earlier creation and also displaces workers while elevating Silicon Valley plutocrats.

If there’s some kind of partnership where I can use Best Buy points to pay for a surgery, sign me up.

get in loser we're doing tv timeouts for soccer
News: Every 2026 World Cup match will feature two "hydration breaks," no matter the weather.
Each half will pause for exactly three minutes midway through.
It's a player welfare measure. It also has sporting & commercial implications.

Every game will pause for three minutes in the middle of each half, which will essentially split the match into quarters.
