at this point i'm convinced that fox and the trump admin are just trading employees back and forth as some sort of elaborate job numbers inflation scheme

they don't want actual regulations. they just want enough to get a taxpayer bailout.

i am convinced the ai ceos are now pushing for regulation because it's the first step of their plan to socialize losses for when the bubble bursts. it's taking this whole nostalgia for 2008 thing a little too far.

"Players can no longer hop into collisions and get stuck." As someone who uses jumping as their primary mode of transportation, this is the fix I'm most excited about.

It's not that Reeve Carney and Lin-Manuel Miranda are bad, they're just outclassed on stage by some absolutely phenomenal performers.

If I had a nickel for every time the male lead was the weakest part of a sung-through musical proshoot to the point of borderline ruining some of the most emotional moments, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it's happened twice.

I took advantage of doom scrolling giving me the ick and replaced it with reading ebooks on my library app. That was great for a couple of weeks, but now reading is giving me the ick too. Picking up my phone opening/closing apps and going "ugh" every ten minutes doesn't hit the same.

How do people deal with misrepresentation so often? I've been thinking about this for five minutes and I'm down to throw hands already. Dealing with this shit constantly must be exhausting.

Kind of annoyed that the vast majority of ADHD representation I see in the media is just articles about how some semi-famous person views it as their "superpower". I know it works that way for some people—good for them, honestly—but this shit is considered a disability for a reason.

How am I supposed to get anything done when I spend half my time closing out popups of "Let AI summarize this conversation!" for messages that say things like "I think your mic is muted." or "I have meeting conflict at that time.". I don't need AI to summarize anything because I can fucking read.

I think the most annoying thing to me about AI being shoehorned in everywhere is that the ability to turn it off is locked behind admin settings that folks at my job refuse to disable.

To be clear: I do not think Trump would have thought this up on his own. However, I do think he'd be dumb enough to believe it will work if someone pitched the idea to him.

Derek @purpsus.bsky.social · 03/01/2026
I've seen a lot of comments about this being all about power, resources, and imperialism. While I wholeheartedly believe that's true for the scum behind Trump, I don't think that's what's going through his dementia riddled brain as an individual.

My new conspiracy theory: Trump removed Maduro to try and install Machado so he can goad her into starting a war. Then, he'll try to get the Nobel committee to revoke her peace prize and give it to him. After that, he'll pardon Maduro and set him up to live in luxury somewhere.

Looks like this was originally published in 2007 which explains why that slur is in there. Certainly a use case for a "this was a product its time so keep that in mind when you see things that aren't deemed acceptable by current standards" disclaimer at the very least.

One of the nice things about moving to the area I'm in now is NYC is a lot closer. This means I get to go to Broadway shows now which is nice. It also means I am subjected to hearing Empire State of Mind constantly blaring from pedicabs when I visit; it's not my favorite thing.

I truly do not understand the logic. You caved in return for a pinky promise that the GOP will let you vote on healthcare subsidies? Seriously? These fuckers aren't going to bring anything you want to a vote and you know it. Cowardice is one thing, but the sheer level of denial here is unacceptable.

I really think that it's specifically the people who really struggled with being isolated in the pandemic. It's like their brains just rebel against any kind of written instructions and demand someone explain it to them verbally before they'll do it.

Trump just designated “Antifa” as a terrorist organization, on par with ISIS and Al Qaeda. As a reminder, “antifa” is short for “antifascist”. They will use this lie to surveil, imprison, and kill Americans on the left. This may be our Reichstag Fire moment. Wake up. www.cnn.com/2025/09/17/p...

I do not understand delivery logistics sometimes. I'm watching the tracker on this truck and it's crossed over the same intersection at least four times while making deliveries. Surely it must be more efficient to drop things off as you pass the address, right? What am I missing?
