still wild to me that we celebrate columbus instead of the italian explorer we named our country after. like I'm sure amerigo vespucci was also a bad person, but people are so gung ho on columbus being THE italian founding father. though honestly I personally feel it should be verrazzano day.

I'm only 6 episodes in, but I'm surprised how many of these early highlander episodes don't have any other immortals and no flashbacks but are just following situations that arise from is being able to come back from the dead.

It's a doubly infuriating dynamic because Republicans called out Piker as if he mattered. Democrats have decided, for the second straight election, to let Musk's hundreds of millions and the flurry of Nazi hate at trans people pass by as if it's not worthy of comment.

i can't deal with the term "activation" used to advertise experiential advertising events. like that is meaningless boardroom jargon, not for mass consumption. at least pretend it's a fun thing to do and not just way to part us from our money.

One of the things that also pisses me off is that in a vacuum, this technology is value-neutral. It's development in conjunction with the profit motive is what causes the worst aspect of it to manifest. The problem is not the technology itself, but is and has always been Capitalism.

watch this video of scientologists discussing the knowledge and benefits they've gained from a high-level course. the way they describe their efficiency and productivity gains is barely distinguishable from how valley tech freaks describe their "agentic ai" gains, and roughly as intelligible

the reason is simple: it's not a tool, it's a cult. cult members offload decision-making, creativity, and reasoning capabilities to the leader and label dissent as ignorance. once you start seeing this pattern in "ai" boosterism, you can't un-see it

Saw a video billboard today that just said "jews.com" and then changed to something else. I'm in NJ so I thought it could easily be an antisemetic conspiracy site or something pro israel or something just trying to sell stuff to jewish people for the coming holidays.

did bluesky hear about Miss Teen Indiana’s Garfield costume
A young woman in a Garfield inspired outfit with a Garfield headdressThe young woman from the first photo is holding a lasagna that says “lasagna my love language”missinteenusa Tonight, Indiana is going Garfield!
My state costume celebrates one of Indiana's most iconic creations-Garfield, created by fellow Hoosier Jim Davis.
Born in Marion and raised in Fairmount, Davis turned an orange cat with a big personality into a character recognized and loved around the world.
But this costume represents more than a famous Hoosier.
The hand-painted comic panels on my skirt share messages inspired by my initiative, Captivating Confidence:
"Our differences are what make us beautiful."
"If we don't have love, we have nothing."
"Outer beauty attracts, but inner beauty captivates."
To me, true confidence is found in embracing what makes each of us different and recognizing that our greatest beauty comes from within. I am so excited to bring a little Hoosier humor, creativity and confidence to the Miss Teen USA stage tonight!
This one-of-a-kind costume was inspired by my vision and brought to life by Indianapolis-based costume designer, Jess West. @jesswestcostumes
