Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 27/06/2026Shitty NY politico who just got ousted by DSA posted on Instagram bragging that the last voter in line in her district voted for her, and a politician getting photographic documentation of the last person who will ever vote for them is objectively hilarious 011
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 24/06/2026So proud of my city tonight. NYC truly on a generational run. 000
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 24/06/2026I live here and I agree. Bright side is that this district was recently redrawn away from polluting the strong DSA corridor in Queens (left, pre-2024) and now isolates myself and my shitty neighbors (right, post-2024). That's a huge swath of Claire Valdez's new turf freed up, so I consider it a win. 020

Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 14/10/2025How much of Ezra Klein’s success and influence is directly attributable to sounding like he’s doing an Ira Glass impersonation at all times 000
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 14/10/2025Pretty sure they’re just announcing a forthcoming ad-free podcast feed and not actually soliciting design feedback here bub 100
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 12/10/2025Unbelievably niche and incredibly accurate 000
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 24/07/2025Look dog I’m not saying that it’s not real, just that it’s not verifiable unless you saw it early and maybe being aware of what’s possible with the software is a good thing ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 000

Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 13/07/2025I know there are bills to pay but gotta say that transitioning directly from making fun of Alex Jones into a lengthy ad read for Brain Pills™ kinda strains credibility 040
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 24/06/2025Do you guys think the guy from Decembrists has ever just popped a cold one with his boys or is he stuck in-character spilling ale from the cistern and whatnot 000
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 22/06/2025On my bingo card for this big address - no audience - looking straight down the camera - right eye significantly bigger than left as he tries to read the prompter - awkward pause as he prepares to try to pronounce the name of a strike site - “beautiful” re: American bombs - ad-libbed threats 010

Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 15/06/2025Couldn’t actually tell you if this vid is 100%-for-sure AI slop, because the only moral option was to never find out, based on vibes. Hell world! 000
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 15/06/2025Look I know clickbait has been an unsolved problem for 15+ years and sometimes truly great people are forced into pumping out all-caps mouth-open neon-background thumbnails just to survive but I do hope we can all learn to clock and skip obvious AI slop. Don’t give these freaks a reason. 100
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 06/06/2025I think it’s so cool that someone in the pentagon is having a deadly serious emergency meeting right now about what impacts the mean tweets could have on military readiness 😌 000
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 06/06/2025Don’t worry they’re ready to seize the zeitgeist by deploying decade-old cultural references with memes that are older still 020
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 04/06/2025Anyway here’s one of the big consultants on the Harris/Walz campaign falling for a parody account 000
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 31/05/2025Anyway if things /do/ continue apace we’re going to hit the socialism-or-barbarism event horizon much faster than anyone wants, and my moneys on barbarism 010
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 31/05/2025Personally I think the “adapt or die”grift will be relatively short-lived, since “prompt engineering” is itself easily, obviously replaceable by a well-tuned LLM. If we lose our jobs doing the work ourselves, they’ll lose their jobs asking the computer to do the work for them too. 100
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 31/05/2025The ghouls who want to tell you how to automate your small business marketing because people who don’t learn AI tools will be left behind are all soulless freaks who would be equally happy selling you nootropics, and it sucks that their dogshit personalities don’t actually mean that they’re wrong. 110
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 31/05/2025It’s hard to get a sense of the future impacts of AI because on one hand it really is a “transformative” (derogatory) technology and on the other hand all the people who boost it are uniformly the least personally curious, most cynical, snake-oil-salesman-ass individuals our sick society can create. 100
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 26/05/2025I also don’t know what purpose these changes serve, other than Craig gets to play with his toys and write everyone so he personally would like them better as people? At least until The Plot takes over and they have to Do Atrocities because at the end of the day he /is/ on rails here 010
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 26/05/2025It’s pretty wild how consistently Craig Mazin’s changes to TLOU undermine the characters. It’s like he wants to be writing a different show but he’s still bound to hit the major story beats from the game, and the result is a lot of muddled relationships and confusing motives 110
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 24/05/2025This is maybe partially the Joe Rogan dilemma of a format where the guest is expected to be the subject matter expert, but it does seem that his broadly lefty instincts aren’t quite enough to keep him from getting led around by the nose by whoever’s sat in front of him at the time ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 030
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 24/05/2025Recalling in particular a podcast he did where he mostly nodded along while the guest suggested that not only were declining birth rates a bigger threat than climate change (because we need more workers), but the cause was pets being easy, singleness being accepted, and phones being too entertaining 130
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 24/05/2025Conover’s whole brand as a truth sayer is mostly a result of financial backers hiring teams of researchers to hand him material; left to his own devices he’s turned out to be a deeply credulous dude and frequent Fell-For-It-Again-Award recipient 150
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 21/05/2025Had a bad dream that reminded me that every day I grow older and one day I will die so I jumped on the Stress Rectangle until I was full of enough soothing worries to forget again ☺️ 000
Computer Funeral @computerfuneral.bsky.social · 13/05/2025The cherry on top for a lot of the iffy choices made in this new season of The Last of Us is Craig Mazin showing up in the post-credit featurettes to describe his intentions at length in a vaguely condescending tone, and often flatly contradicting what we all just watched on screen in the process 000
