B @steptwin.bsky.social · 12/10/2025A previous employer of mine announced last week they were firing over 200 employees and replacing them with AI. News that diabolical can only make you scrutinize all AI output you see with a fine toothed comb. And I just see way too many missed layups to inspire any kind of confidence. 000
B @steptwin.bsky.social · 21/05/2025Look, I think it’s generally a good thing this book’s coming out and I think that, in substance, Tapper is a more or less fair reporter, but it’s kind of odd to tether the possibility of exploring this book — which is now apparently so feather-rufflingly essential — to the variable of Harris losing. 100
B @steptwin.bsky.social · 12/05/2025variety.com/2025/tv/news... As a Nathan Fielder devotee, I regularly struggle with the morality of his manipulation of people. It’s part of the deal you make in becoming a fan. There are practices enumerated here that feel pretty shaky and yet c’mon this is fucking hilarious 010
B @steptwin.bsky.social · 04/05/2025The artist, after completing the far right portion, pauses, dabs forehead, sighs, solemnly concedes aloud 010
B @steptwin.bsky.social · 12/03/2025It’s not great but it’s also not a helluva lot worse than this. 000
B @steptwin.bsky.social · 08/12/2024Apple slapped this disclosure in front of their digital release… …of POOR THINGS. 000
B @steptwin.bsky.social · 08/11/2024I am taken aback by the absolute rubbish Facebook promotes into my feed on a daily basis. I don’t mean hateful. I don’t mean gross. I mean utter, mind numbing, empty calorie garbage in the purest form. Our brains have been slowly, systematically, relentlessly smoothened by it for over a decade. 100
B @steptwin.bsky.social · 29/10/2024and here’s the real smoking gun that the USA TODAY staff is bush league. 000
B @steptwin.bsky.social · 28/10/2024This tenor of coverage of the Trump Nazi rally is, in effect, no less racist than the racism it is trying to wash away. 110
B @steptwin.bsky.social · 27/10/2024In an alternate universe where this is a generic entrepreneur, this would (and should!) be a story the left uses to demystify the boogeyman of The Illegal instead of a cudgel to have that person deported. Liberals would do well to remember that the hypocrisy is the outrage, not the thing itself. 000
B @steptwin.bsky.social · 27/10/2024Look, it’s not my brand of politics, to say the least, but my inner adolescent rejects the liberal pearl clutching over this like a donated organ. 010
B @steptwin.bsky.social · 26/10/2024I’m very bored with this point of view. Not every WaPo cancellation needs to be a personal fuck-you to Bezos. It’s entirely legitimate to simply decide you don’t like the value your money is getting you when these things happen. There are human costs when any business weathers that. It sucks. But. 000
B @steptwin.bsky.social · 24/10/2024Trump having tied Biden on healthcare costs is really how you know that campaign was toast. 010
B @steptwin.bsky.social · 23/10/2024Look, I appreciate that shoring up key demos is tricky, and I don’t profess to be an ambassador for all straight dudes by any means, but the Harris campaign really ought to be trying harder than this. 000
B @steptwin.bsky.social · 17/10/2024Incredible kicker from Bender here in this NYT story on Trump’s worsening discursiveness on the campaign trail www.nytimes.com/2024/10/17/u... 010
B @steptwin.bsky.social · 10/09/2024Most of us would be willing to settle for just a good faith debate about this stuff — but I have literally not once seen a member of the elite media (even ones I admire) forego this martyr-complex level of driveling, petty self righteousness when faced with even the faintest request for humility. 100
B @steptwin.bsky.social · 18/08/2024Hell of a thing to place a shirt with these letters right behind a former president who was just shot a month ago, and have it not be the biggest L you take. 000
