This weekend I told a couple of folks who care about Alabama football way more than I do how much Saban's really pissing me off with this push to fuck over players getting compensation for their work while coaches earn millions and I got almost no pushback, dude is tanking his reputation fast.

Imagine being the chucklefuck who dropped the ball in the COVID pandemic so badly the economy nearly broke then managing to come back 5 years later and fuck up *even worse* and *without a nearly unpreventable natural disaster* to blame.

If you want to really know how the outrage machine gets fired up: 1. Schmitt plans to drop “bombshell” on Smith 2. Someone plants story that Schmitt is a Vance VP contender to run same day 3. Right-wing Twittersphere gets talking points 4. Schmitt steps in it 5. Scheduled tweets go out anyway

funny to me that last year taylor lorenz was privately trying to suggest i was being funded by peter thiel after we got into an argument over her shitty takes, and now she’s literally running cover for him saying being evil is good. quite a journey she’s on.

Taylor Lorenz: "Listening to this whole interview and these comments in context you see he is actually making a pretty nuanced point. You can criticize him all u want but taking clips out of context to manufacture outrage is so lame— critique what he actually said!"

Honestly, I think that's censure-worthy. But also I believe that every current elected member of the GOP is worthy of a lot worse than a censure.

I've finally discovered the way to get Turpentine to take the meds without getting into a break with him: get a diet food he's Kirby inhaling indiscriminately ravenous for and make sure he's particularly hungry.

it is just monumentally depressing that at the time we need honest supreme court coverage the most, the place that used to be the best resource for it has been turned - like most other media outlets - into a sycophantic shitshow dedicated to glazing the worst people in america

It is really remarkable that in a time of historic impasse in Congress, with both houses have been reduced to complete standstills despite a mounting number of political, economic, and ethical crises, both parties have spent months working to pass a bill limiting the pay of college athletes

seeing a lot of discussion about this and like: the reason the poster did a screenshot with no link is that if you actually search for the article you'd learn that this bill 1) has nothing to do with Zohran Mamdani 2) was introduced in committee back in May and didn't go anywhere

This is quite cool. My university is the first organisation in the world to force Microsoft to allow us to turn off copilot summaries in Word 365, after a backlash against it from staff (including, very vocally, me). That cannot have been easy for our heroic IT people so hats very much off to them!

A decade of living in LA and, maybe it's because I don't hang out with folks or maybe it's because I don't drink coffee, but only once have I ever had someone say they want to visit a coffee shop, and it was for a specific Korean corn latte, not the shop itself. Why would you travel for one. Why.

The Pope reminds me of a version of Catholicism I knew growing up as a young man attending anti-war and anti-death penalty protests, where I met elderly Catholics who shared their version of faith with me. I learned that Catholicism was about love and mercy for the weak, the condemned, and the poor.

It's really hard for me to only pick 9, and there's certainly some edutainment games that shaped me, but I tried to pick early shapers, ones that have stories (like my first ever console bought alongside Kingdom Hearts) and the only game I know I have more than 1k hours in. 😓

My 9 Games, The 9 Games That Shaped Who I Am

Chrono Trigger

wtf that's some of the most iconic imagery from Beatlemania what is she talking about that's a huge part of what fueled The Monkees shooting to fame too was The Beatles abandoning their more pop roots and leaving it open for another group.

I saw this screenshot going around, found this detail charming, looked more into the game (I've never played a Silent Hill) & decided to buy it. Btw these are the "unimportant" background assets AI idiots think AI should be used for

Screenshot of a Twitter post by Val / @shegoingtogloat - it's a Silent Hill screenshot showing a close up of a cork board. On it, a paper says "Welcome to Shorefront Family Clinic" in a classic wiggly 3D font style. The tweet text is: Is this a Silent Hill asset made using PowerPoint lol"

The work cannot be done if there is a wall in the way. There is not a single solitary bill a Democrats-led Congress can pass without a supermajority with Donald Trump in the way unless that bill benefits him and his criminal enterprise in some way, at which point it should not be a bill considered.

We've got reports that Nithya Raman is also polling above Karen Bass for LA mayor right now. Which is good. If news about this merger continues and it starts to actually come into effect over the next month, pointing out Bass agreed with it should be another priority as LA suffers for it.

TRANSCRIPT
Panel 1:
A woman and a man sit on a low stone wall in a park. The woman is upset; the man listens.

WOMAN: And now the Democrat in the race is backing some anti-trans laws! I’m not sure I can vote for that.

MAN (thinking): Uh-oh. Democrats need every vote. How can I convince her to vote for the Democrat anyway?

Panel 2:
The woman and man walk through the park, the woman ahead of him.

WOMAN: Of course, the Republican is even worse. But if Democrats turn against trans people… I’m so frightened.

MAN (thinking): I’ve got to be empathetic and persuasive.

Panel 3:
Close-up of the man, looking thoughtful with his hand on his chin.

WOMAN (off-panel): Look at what happened to the UK — they’ve now got two anti-trans parties. If we let that happen here, trans rights are dead.

MAN (thinking): Okay, I think I know how to reassure her and get her vote.

Panel 4:
The man is suddenly furious, leaning toward the startled woman and pointing at her.

MAN: You’re a Trump supporting moron and you deserve to die!

CHICKEN FAT WATCH
PANEL 1:
A good dog with a halo peers out a window. A hand sticks out of a hole in a tree holding a sign that says SEND CANDY.

PANEL 2:
Groucho peeks from behind some bushes. A poster nailed to a tree reads "Background gag to come and it'll be so funny!" A bad rabbit (we know it's bad because it's smoking) sits beside a bad worm (also smoking). A bottle lying in the grass is labeled "BARRY BEER" and has a disturbed-looking drawing of Barry. A mouse holds a knife to a cat; the cat raises its front paws in surrender.

PANEL 4:
A giant mouse (?) in a shirt and tie sits on the wall reading a newspaper, called "Daily Blah Blah," whose headline says "Literate Rodent Escapes Lab."
