i've started to learn blender and i gotta say, it's resulted in some really boring anecdotes. to take one example, yesterday i intended to keyframe-shift an object to 15.5 on the z-axis, but mistakenly entered 15.5 on the y-axis instead! thankfully i realized and corrected my mistake some time later

Bret: Millions of Americans, including me, not only hate the parties but also hate the party for which we typically vote. That means there's a market of the dissatisfied. I hear this all the time among my friends in New York City: They can't believe they're stuck with Zohran Mamdani as mayor, and they felt the same way about Eric Adams and Bill de Blasio before him. But when you ask them if they voted in the primaries, the usual answer is: Uh, no — we were on the Vineyard or in Greece. The point is that it's on them, or us, and the remedy is some civic
entrepreneurship, philanthropically funded, to change this.

we can learn a lot how Magyar launched “Operation Cleansing Fire” to reform the courts and completely de-orbanize Hungary the funniest things to me though is that 1. this has been an extinction-level event for Fidesz 2. human rights Watch is mad about it for some reason, truly beyond parody

The thing about people like Dolly is that you just feel lucky to be alive at the same time as them. We were all so very lucky. Rest in peace.

Krakoa was good, but the best thing it did was resurrect the “mutant subculture” ideas Morrison kicked around in New X-Men with Beak and crew. Think there needs to be more reckoning with inter-generational mutant conflicts along these lines

Only real answer, and I’m being serious, is to starve the rurals as much as possible so that they can further empty out and create more sensible voters in cities and suburbs

Stuff like this should rankle you, but also encourage you, because it’s great cause for destroying the institution altogether. Complete forfeiture of the public trust and the judicial function in favor of unaccountable, fiat policy making. Untenable, and they’ve given us the rope here.

Lindsey Graham dedicated his whole life to creating a worse world. Scarce was the statement in which he did not advocate for murdering someone, somewhere. In 2016, he briefly attempted political bravery before sublimating the pesky anchors of principle beneath an oceanic servility. Now he’s dead.

Hope that some of the folks who ignored the 50 trillion red flags around this guy can figure out why they did so, as it’s cost us probably the most winnable senate seat of the cycle

If you're a Jew living in NYC in 2026, you're about as safe as a
Jew living in Germany in 1929.
Move, now. That's not your home anymore, trust me.

If you're a Jew in NYC, now is your time to move. After
tonight's election in New York, nobody who is Jewish is safe.
I'd love to see the Trump administration address this Islamic
takeover of America and the exploding Jew hatred.
We need leadership on this issue. It's dangerous.

You always get the sense Trump maybe doesn’t understand that he is lying, a lifetime of the world reorienting around him having destroyed the distinction between what he thinks and what’s true. But you always can tell that this repulsive little guy is lying through his teeth and enjoying it.

Between the box office performance of Obsession and Backrooms (as well as several other recent films), it feels like something about American moviegoing tastes and habits are shifting very quickly in a way for which most of the people with the money to finance movies are completely unprepared.

It’s prices being high, that’s it. People remember cheaper prices for everything and want that back. This is independent of any concomitant rise in incomes, because most people’s brains don’t work on ratios or relative spending power

Takeout/delivery and cooking your own food are both wrong. Instead you should be extracting atmospheric dust, nutrients, and moisture using specialized microscopic hairs called trichomes.
