So. Just to get this straight. Most people don't really like AI. They don't like being forced to use it. They don't like data centers. They don't want their jobs taken away by it. But we have to have it anyway. And it might destroy the world. This is the stupidest thing I've ever seen.

It’s almost impossible to name all of the terrible things our president has done during his two terms but every now and again someone will post how many hours of golf he’s played as some kind of gotcha and I really appreciate their contribution.

I can't wait to see this movie that definitely takes place in Denver.

I got a couple of new tattoos a day or so ago and it was a day after Nancy Mace showed off all of hers and I kind of never wanted to get another tattoo again. I did anyway but still...

I'm 53 years old but if I see a post that starts with "I'm Gen-X and..." I immediately don't care.

I don't care how trenchant your observations are, if you're doing them by popping your head up in someone else's video you can just fuck right off.

Look, I have a couple of pretty great kids but it’s just a shame that I haven’t figured out how to monetize that.

The funny thing about Denver is that over the last 15-20 years there have been an awful lot of changes but no real improvements.

I found this in the grocery store and I’m almost certain that human involvement was minimal in its creation.

Here's a little pro tip for you. If you just ignore the dipshit right wingers talking about The Odyssey instead of posting their screenshots and talking about how wrong they are incessantly, then you don't have to worry about them at all!

It‘s always 50+ used to be somebody white dudes telling you that ai in entertainment is inevitable. And it’s the younger people who are having massive success who are saying ai is trash. So I know who I’m going to listen to.

I’d like to go back in time right after RFK was assassinated and tell people “you know, someday his son will be personally responsible for an outbreak of explosive diarrhea”.

When I was a lot younger I had a pretty fervent belief in anarchism. As I got older I came to see that it wasn't a viable political system and I kind of dropped it, publicly anyway. But the thing is I still believe in anarchism, but more as a personal philosophy. And I never got an anarchy tattoo.

Once a number of years ago I saw Hickenlooper at a Dinosaur Jr show and he was so drunk he could barely stand up. So we just have to deal with that guy for six more fucking years.

Thanks to pivoting to video I now get to see what frumpy public radio type people look like and surprisingly it's not so different than I imagined.

A thing that bugs me about our tech overlords is the quasi-philosophical word salad they spout when trying to explain their worldview. It's usually some nonsensical Nietzschean/Hegelian mashup that's meant to make them sound smart while serving as cover for their vicious amorality. Bah I say!

Okay, now that the bloom is off the rose with the mandolorian, we can admit that Grogu is kind of a shitty name right? Yoda? Great name. Babu Frik? Excellent name. Grogu though. It just sounds a shrug.

My daughter and I saw a work truck with “poop911dotcom” printed on the side and I really think they need to clarify if they mean nine one one or nine eleven.

So if you’re an irredeemable piece of shit kind of person, like say a trillionaire or a president of some country, do you know that you’re an irredeemable piece of shit person? Even somewhere deep down inside?

YouTube just me served up something called a “low cortisol playlist“ and its always funny to get a reminder that the broader culture has passed me by.

I get that ads follow you around the internet and that there's nothing to be done about that but! there should be a way to mark that you bought something or aren't interested.

Beyond the obvious reasons that people might not be feeling celebratory about America, there’s also the fact that the celebration is called the semi quincentennial. It may be descriptive but that’s just a terrible name.

I made a Dutch baby for breakfast and I always think that it’s one of those things that sounds racist but isn’t.

If I was the governor of this state I'd like to leave office with people saying "hey, he did a pretty good job!" rather than "this guy is a traitorous piece of garbage!" but that's just me.

What I love about Ai now is how most people are beginning to hate it and actively looking to avoid it and most podcast ads are still “Here at tech company, we‘re committed to putting Ai in everything from your shoelaces to your tennis racket even that soup you’re eating right now!”

Listen. There‘s a remake of Cape Fear coming out soon and if it doesn’t have an ending where Javier Bardem sings the entire score of the HMS Pinafore before getting caught by a bunch of cops visiting a riverside brothel, I’m not gong to see it.

For the last year or so there's this one guy who pops up on podcasts and youtube videos constantly saying that the AI bubble is going to burst and that Open AI is going down and while I appreciate what he's saying and he seems smart, this just doesn't seem to be happening.

One funny thing about our son being an avid birder is that he’ll identify random birdsongs in Red Dead Redemption 2 while I’m playing. And what‘s interesting as well is that the game designers took care to make sure that the birds are regionally appropriate.

Something I think about a lot is the death of independent music, the current consolidation of news and other media and how all of this can be laid at the feet of Bill Clinton.

The thing my kids will never know is the scathing judgement you would get from a record store or comic book clerk no matter what you were there to get. And thats a good thing. I stopped shopping at Wax Trax in the 90s after getting a ton of attitude for buying an Alice Donut record.

Seeing the voting patterns of my generation (x) is kind of horrifying but it’s important to remember that as much as they all pretend they were alternative cool kids, they mostly listened to Hootie and the blowfish, watched Friends and were on the whole pretty fucking lame.

I like when companies send out earth day promotions at this point in history. We just skipped winter in Denver this year but I guess it's nice to see that some of your teas are sustainably sourced.

The thing I can’t figure out about companies making their products deliberately worse like shrinkflation or changing ingredients or raising the price of streaming or making the Washington Post unreadable is that consumers can just simply not buy the product. I mean, what’s the endgame here?

Josh? @loworbitpodcast.com · 14/04/2026
I can make what I make without AI. And I can restrict the art I consume to things that are made without AI. So no, there's no reason to "adapt" at all. What a silly way to think.

I’ve been drumming again recently and subsequently been listening to The Police most because Stewart Copeland is the drummer I love the most. Lucky for me, that guy has never met a YouTube show he won’t be on.

If anything I make ever gets popular, I'm immediately going to go on some right-wing shit heads podcast and fuck up whatever good will people have towards me by talking about how the wokes are destroying entertainment. I think that's a solid plan!
