it's genuinely so fucking funny that The Atlantic has no intellectual standards for its staff writers whatsoever

The age of romanticism is funny because like half the literature is just about embarrassing rich dudes failing at life to an almost incel level. Yet the music all bangs incredibly hard and is either about killing artistocrats, building empires, or being disappointed in Napoleon

Showed up to a doctor’s appointment yesterday only to find the office had been suddenly closed and the entire staff laid off with no warning or communication to patients. A private equity firm had bought the practice 72 hours before

september issue is out
The cover of Vizier Monthly with a young woman and young man in quasi-Tudor clothing. She has a sash with dangling skulls. He has one hand with poison-green rings on her shoulder and the other hand concealed. She looks at the viewer, hands on hips, while his head is in profile, though still looking at the viewer. Text reads "JUST KIDS: the next generation of potentates. KASSERI THE ROSE OF BLOOD AND SALOIO DUKESBANE ON MAKING THEIR OWN WAY. SPECIAL ISSUE"

the great threat to wikipedia is not culture war bullshit or LLMs, it's media being so destroyed and fragmented, and publishing and academia so dysfunctional, that subjects that would have previously cleared notability easily now won't have enough sources to even exist

never forget the actual entire purpose of a "new tab" is to paste a bit of text so then later you can copy and paste it somewhere else without formatting (to paraphrase @everest.bsky.social)

Always funny watching the internet bros think Nietzsche wanted young men to be ruthless, rules-exempt individualists who dominate others, when he actually just wanted them to be dancers

one of the great pleasures of using discogs to catalog records is the stunning regularity with which you acquire something that is not already part of the database. Tens of millions of releases cataloged, and still human musical production is so great that there are constant gaps

DOOM fully rendered in CSS. Every surface is a <div> that has a background image, with a clipping path with 3D transforms applied. Of course CSS does not have a movable camera, so we rotate and translate the scene around the user.
