Generally try to stay anonymous, but I love history, philosophy, science fiction and fantasy, weird horror, playing and writing music, writing books, video games, and pinball. May have been a space rock on Twitter. Fan of most nerddoms.

To recap: three GOP-led states that wanted the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade in order to "send abortion back to the states" are now asking the Court to strike down abortion protections in blue states

I much prefer the historically accurate version where the British conquered the world for spices and still couldnt use any of them until the people they stole the spices from went there to show them how to use pepper

I wanna just say "awww bless your little heart" to the kind people who keep trying to tell me how to avoid being eaten by bears in the forest here. Because "I'm from the city." #1 no one with a lick of sense gets eaten by a bear here #2 I promise you I have spent more time in the woods than y'all

"Mr. Smith, dirtbag, the day after Prince Andrew was disowned from the monarchy, is it true that you had dinner with the King of England?" "Wat? No." "You don't know what we have." "I did eat at Burger King, Senator Schmitt. Could that be what you are referencing?" "😡 ur still a dirtbag"

Even if you give him the benefit of the doubt that it wasn't what he wanted, the fact he has the nerve and lack of foresight to say this is disqualifying.

Considering sending the article about broke influencers to the three influencers I know who have very rich social media lives and still owe me anywhere from $50-$200 from when they couldn't pay their utilities. Seriously you all, everything is a scam. Always has been. Always will be.

One of my favorite things about the movie Tenet is it's 6 years later and I can still have long arguments about it and no one involved is right or wrong.

I know "AI can't do anything" and such, but using it to plan a multi week trip, keeping human intelligence in the loop, has been a fascinating experience. So many little things I would not have thought of, like fruits and vegetables in their absolute peak weeks at my location.

I think what really chaps my ass about “southern whites have too many Hitler Particles” is it’s just historically inaccurate. If you said they had too many “Stonewall Jackson particles” I might begrudgingly agree. But the history of American Nazism is about wealthy elites.

If you claim to have never heard Nick Lutsko's "I Wanna Be at the RNC", it says more about you than the author of the Infowars theme song. People who make this claim expose a deeper issue in their psyche, allowing them to lie to themselves and the public to prove they are not woke rolling stones.

This is the kind of song I listen to once and then immediately forget about. If you asked me if I'd heard it, I'd say no. I have never, to my knowledge, heard it in public, nor on any show I watch, nor on any mix channel I occasionally have on, many of which contain country songs. It's fine.

I always get a kick that the Bible says love of money is the root of all evil and that people get upset when I say conservatism is the root of all evil.

One of the most effective weapons we had was to call Republicans weird and point out that everything they are obsessed with is true of them, whether it's a good, neutral, or bad thing they're yelling about.

The storm’s expected path has shifted closer to our city, bringing heavier rain and stronger winds.

If you’re traveling this weekend, give yourself extra time. Check your train, ferry, or flight before you leave, and avoid low-lying coastal roads around high tide.

If you live in a basement apartment, know your way out and be prepared to move to a higher floor if conditions become dangerous.

Look out for your neighbors. And make sure you’re getting the latest updates by texting NOTIFYNYC to 692-692.

Two panel comic. Panel 1: two sharks are sitting in a cafe. A smaller shark holding a teacup says discreetly to the other, “okay, look at this couple behind you - but don’t make it obvious.” Panel 2: the other shark, a Great White shark, turns its gigantic head in the most obvious way possible to look across the room at some sharks chatting at another table.

People who have only ever worked in tech and never in physical industry don't understand how big of a deal diesel prices are to business owners and often thus conservatives. I remember being in a meeting where we had to discuss laying people off because of how high diesel was a long time ago.

Whether or not AI will reach the heights some people claim, one of the bigger problems we have in society today is a lot of people using it for things it absolutely cannot currently do well. The more notable and arrogant a person is, the more likely they seemed to be suckered by it.

I recently had to engage on an extremely complex emergency project that just cannot feasibly be done even by a group of humans in the necessary time frame, and I have to say that what Sol managed to do with about three hours of my explicit planning and guidance is mind-blowing. Minor awe.

The type of people who very "smartly" say that gas has been more expensive before should know enough to know that the absolute price of a thing is less important than the share of post tax income it takes from someone. If everyone had $3k left over a month, gas doubling sucks but is chiller.
