“Dog eat dog world” is a weird phrase because I have never seen a dog eat another dog. Lizards on the other hand are eating each other every day, around the clock

Liberals are still, in big 2026, after decades of this stuff, still, *still* operating as if you can simply find an accommodation with the far right's death drive. These people are, to reiterate it again, either lying and obscuring their far right sympathies, or *deeply* fucking stupid.

NEW: Flock has said for years that its cameras "cannot track individuals." We found the code for its new AI tool. It's preloaded w/ prompts like "Find me witness" & "find relatives." One tracks visitors of multiple hotels, another if you visit banks after midnight. www.wired.com/story/flock-...

Anything's better than the current "best-of-3 for no reason, then single elimination because we refuse to do anything like anyone else" approach, and 5 divisions is just weird (and 20 playoff teams is a lot), but the Aussie Rules playoff structure really does rule. So there's that.

New: MLS is planning another potential overhaul to its playoff system, one that could involve as many as 20 teams, feature a "double-elimination" component along with a mess of other changes. Nothing finalized yet. Full details from me on @us.theguardian.com: www.theguardian.com/football/202...

Double-elimination, reseeding and 20 teams: MLS plans potential overhaul of playoffs
The format would resemble that of Australian rules football, and the changes would pair with a structural move from two conferences to five divisions

A man cries out "quick! Lin-Manuel Miranda! You need to compose the rap that will save our democracy." Miranda gives the thumbs up. Miranda, now in period dress and powdered wig raps "call that procedure, the theatre to follow the leader" while doing a hip-hop hand motion. Onlookers marvel and say "my God! he's rewritten Robert's rules of order as a 10 hour Hip-Hop Odyssey." A bunch of right wing people are awe struck. A man comments "all the MAGA hillbillies are enchanted by his wordplay and dense rhyme schemes." Another man chimes in "look! they're having tearful mea culpas about the true nature of freedom."

i think the big data center backlash has a lot to do with technology getting worse, costing more, building a surveillance state, destroying the environment, owned by a class of wealthy elite that coalesced behind the fascist regime that made clear they’d sacrifice humanity for their own power growth

Do people know this? There's such a pervasive obsession in this country with how great the stock market is doing; I wonder how many people would be shocked to learn that the US stock market is being badly outperformed by the rest of the world, and that's a new thing since January 2025.
