Fuck ChatGPT flyers. The future is broadsheets.
A crowded broadsheet with way too many fonts. It says:
Forget ChatGPT Flyers
Say it with 
Broadsheets
Unlimited fonts
Stretch them
Or cram a really long sentence into one line for no good reason
No whitespace
Mix capital and lowercase
Pointing hands
(They're called manicules!)
Don't be left behind
Broadsheets are the future

She's either the most dishonest person on earth or she's suffering from a traumatic brain injury. Either way she shouldn't be a senator.

In May we reported on the abduction by ICE of an asylum seeker in Worcester. @etelhaxhiaj.bsky.social, a city councilor at the time, was absurdly and unjustly convicted last week of assaulting a police officer that day in what she says was a politically motivated trial. We talked about it.

In May of last year Bill Shaner reported for Hell World on the abduction of a Worcester, MA asylum-seeker named Rosane Ferreira-De Oliveira by the federal government. It was an early look at how horri...

I think ICE is sending a pretty clear message: don't help them.

You can pick your cat, you can pick your nose, but you can't pick your cat's nose. But I didn't pick my cat, and she's very congested, so this is a really annoying adage.

The old songs were good enough to be jazz standards, Miles Davis has a whole record named after a Snow White song, Bill Evans has an Alice in Wonderland track on his Village Vanguard set.

You as a journalism publication should probably hire someone who writes articles, instead of someone who lets Chat CPT write "why doesn't everyone love me?" in the newspaper.

The drummer on the Mario Kart World soundtrack absolutely went off. It's like 3+ continuous hours of a guy going "yeah, I've heard this before, but let me try something" and pulling it off every time. It's just very very good.

The thing about Joey Chestnut is that, even by the standards of the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest, he simply doesn't have to do all that.

I keep watching movies where he plays a taciturn man involved with organized crime in some way who loves to frown, squint, and say things flatly. It always kills. Is this good acting?

I'm now officially 400 pages into The Power Broker, and my opinion is still "guy's kind of an asshole, but I'm kind of rooting for him to do better." Like I'm not going to become a Robert Moses guy, I know where this goes, it's just a testament to how good the book is.

"He was obviously very ill, I can't stress enough that he was very ill, you all saw it!"
Tweet from JD Vance, the guy last seen with the now-dead pope "I just learned of the passing of Pope Francis. My heart goes out to the millions of Christians all over the world who loved him. 

I was happy to see him yesterday, though he was obviously very ill. But I'll always remember him for the below homily he gave in the very early days of COVID. It was really quite beautiful.

May God rest his soul."

Love finding a very long Zelda geography video by a guy who seems extremely normal enough, and also encourages you to fall asleep watching the video. Also loves saying "very deep lore".

The most charitable read is "we should celebrate his on field performance but not talk about the racism he faced" and that feels really reductionist for a guy who got spiked in the shins every game because of his skin color.

The fact that, to the best of my knowledge, Toshiro Mifune doesn't have "like a whole deal" is just one more reason why Yojimbo is better than A Fistful of Dollars.
