One of the things that is going to change is that we’re never ever again going to be able to be dominated by public officials who tell us, ‘Trust the experts,’” Mr. Kennedy said during the Tuesday session.

“If somebody tells you, ‘Masks work, trust the experts,’ A.I. may tell you otherwise,” he added. “If somebody tells you, ‘Social distancing works, trust the experts,’ A.I. may correct that. And if somebody tells you that a vaccine will prevent transmission and infection, or you need to take it to protect your grandmother, A.I. may say it actually doesn’t do that.”

Four years ago today was the last time I had with my Pappap before he died. This is me processing a small sliver of that enduring grief. I was so happy I was able to make time to see him. He had clearly held on to say goodbye, and to make sure my grandma was a ready as she could be.

Something I’ll gladly act as a broken record about: Senator John Kennedy spewing the relatively frequent folksy zingers he comes up with doesn’t offset that he’s also a reprehensible trash bag filled with mothballs and condensed bigotry.

Definitely nothing sinister about the filters designed to determine your age, gender, and other factors based on your voice. Nothing sinister about those at all. Good grief.

There’s a guy on social media who is, at best, doing a bit in which he rails against how dangerous radiation is. At worst, he actually is drinking radium water and spreading clear disinformation. This is such an exhausting timeline riddled with willful ignorance.

Consistently lifting weights and seeing the progress is like watching Digimon and seeing digivolutions for the first time. It’s like “wow, that little blob has such a fun personality” and then suddenly it’s a goddamn dinosaur with a bazooka.

First time ever playing #CandelaObscura, first time playing in a game GMed by the inimitable @linenandspice.bsky.social, and it’s been a hell of a time. Spooky, delightful fun. I’m not concerned about the spooky goings-on, you’re concerned about the spooky goings-on.

Stories about lifelong Republicans becoming Democrats because of the direction MAGA has shifted their party isn’t something I celebrate. It’s part of why the Democratic Party continues to shift more right of center while actively shunning more progressive, Leftist politics. It’s a bad thing.

I love a good redemption arc, but let’s not forget that the politicians going scorched earth against MAGA also helped make much of what happened today possible. Don’t pat those backs too hard.

Hearing people shout about how Millennials need to retire already so more jobs are available. I’d love to retire at 38 and focus on things like my family, creative endeavors, and so on, but with the state of things I’ll be in the workforce until the imminent collapse of society. Twits.

fire types 🔥 [ #pokemon #fanart ]
A collage drawing of nine fire type pokémon. 

From left to right, top to bottom:

Scorbunny: Bunny-like in appearance that stands on two legs. 
Magmar: A magma duck-like creature with fire features on top of its head and tail.
Flareon: A quadruped with orange and yellow fur with long ears.
Torkoal: A turtle-like creature that exhausts smoke from its shell.
Arcanine: A dog-like creature with lots of fur, very big, with stripe patterns in their fur. 
Victini: A small bunny-like mythical creature with “V” motifs throughout their design, notably visible with their ears.
Typhlosion: A bulky, mammalian pokemon that is quadruped but can stand on its hind legs. Fire emits from its neck.
Pansear: A monkey with fire motifs, notably a fire-like swirl on its head.
Vulpix: A quadruped fox-like creature with six bushy tails, sitting upright.

Fighting against communities that actually support both the folks within them as well as those who aren’t vs emphasizing being the main character of the universe’s story no matter the cost is why we now have athletes who keep going after shitting all over themselves and the course.

My least favorite genre of lazy ads as content is people shilling cleaning equipment wherein part of them demonstrating how well it works is by combining cleaners like if Captain Planet was summoned by way of making homebrewed chemical weapons.

Stop platforming/supporting harmful idiots. George Santos doesn’t need to get dragged on another podcast. Sydney Sweeney doesn’t need people to leap to her defense. No billionaire will ever act as a proxy for the love you didn’t get as a child regardless of how hard you lick their boots.

Living in a 100ish-year-old house that has character is all (whatever the opposite of fun and games is). Any time there’s construction anywhere in a million mile radius of my house and the walls fucking vibrate as a result. Pardon the hyperbole. It’s been a great week for sleep deprivation.

I don’t know why the workers tearing up the sidewalk in front of my house for the millionth time are cackling, but it’s both infectious and deeply concerning. At least no one said “oops.” Yet.

Love that the service we use at work to give shout-outs to colleagues has an option to have AI cobble together some semblance of a thought for anyone too dumb, lazy, or both to verbalize their gratitude.

The funny thing is that if they did release it with an explicit CC license, which would permit torrenting among other things, it would fully motivate folks to spend money on it coz way to be cool; folks like to reward that.

If you’re too stupid/racist/both to pronounce Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s name correctly you don’t need to share opinions on how him. His approval ratings speak for themselves, and they are stunning evidence that elected officials can support their constituents over the interest of big money backers.

If you’re celebrating the new Apple Watch features that are basically surveillance for the sake of selling endless audio data under the flimsy disguise of being able to recall conversations you should’ve been paying better attention to, I’d wager the world of 1984 would’ve been your thing as well.

Headlines around Senator Fetterman so frequently highlight how the bar is low, and yet he still manages to tunnel beneath it. To call him an embarrassment would be to afford him an upgrade he doesn’t deserve.

Working out daily has been a great way to keep the Biggest Sads relatively well-controlled, but I also need to get back to doing more creative shit. I feel like my capacity to write has atrophied over time. That’s probably dramatic, and I’ll get back to where I was. I just need to write more.

Wild this is discourse happening in 2026, but trivializing something as deadly serious as having a stalker for the sake of promoting your book is truly monstrous behavior and you deserve to be rewarded with failure in perpetuity for the rest of your days if you go that route, What the fuck.

The only reason anyone should give someone grief about enjoying a pumpkin spice latte is if it’s from Starbucks. Beyond that, shut your joy-vacuum of a mouth and let people enjoy their seasonal treats. (I personally prefer a good cider, but I stand in solidarity with my pumpkin spice pals.)

I’m generally very against gatekeeping, but if you continue to peddle the Moleskine x Lord of the Rings notebooks after it’s been common knowledge the images are generative AI slop, you aren’t a proper fan of good notebooks or of Lord of the Rings. That’s some Saruman behavior right there.
