What's funny is that he's completely right about fantasy football, it's just that its sociality is not fun when you're a miserable wretch. On its own it's a huge waste of time that can only ever make you mad at your father in law on Sundays

People won't voluntarily give up their Kid-Crusher 5000s unless we make driving them considerably more costly and inconvenient, which is precisely what we should do.

NEW: Amazon will refund thousands of Prime members in Wards 7 and 8 for secretly excluding them from full delivery services. The exclusions have now been lifted, and Amazon will also be required to change its practices. No corporation is too big to be held accountable for deceiving DC residents.

Getting mad at Joyce Cato Oates for being a snob after cheering all her epic burns is a different form of being a member of the Leopards Eating Faces party. You can’t contain that heat, you can only hope to avoid its gaze.

We've had the ability to watch, say, Counterstrike marathons, Street Fighter tournaments, or chess matches between computers since the 90s. Spectacles which, by their very definition, would be at a "higher standard" than human play. And nobody wants it. It's entirely meaningless. It has no appeal.

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

I've never seen this panorama at Dulles before. It's a carnival that's been constructed right outside Union Station in DC, 1917. If I didn't have a flight to catch I could stand here and look at the details for an hour.

I don't think this is the argument. CEOs demanding the children's book equivalent of a written report is upstream of this being "the work," so I don't actually care what replaces it. There are so many more pertinent objections to the tech.

If you've spent any amount of time on urbanist twitter you've definitely seen the bike helmet argument. It's one of those that has a clear logical thread but is so logically tortured to the average person that it's usually not worth making. Just argue for the infrastructure.

Text: bsky isnt ready for this but, if you need a reason to not use words like "clanker" that isn't "well its kinda not a great thing to do" (it isn't) imagine this:

Sometimes I think it’s too reductive to say that a car is a uniquely deranging object to own, but then I see people who claim left politics compare the people trying to turn a carpark into a children’s home to Netanyahu and I think “no, the car has made you crazy”

One thing I knew in the abstract but am really not enjoying is that no matter how careful you are when you make something, very loud and aggressive people will absolutely scream at you without engaging. (Not here, with the board game.)
