My wife and I spent the entire day yesterday with my parents and had an absolute ball. We go to lunch with them. We go to casinos with them. We just go over the house to sit around and joke. It kinda sounds the parents in this article have a skills issue. 🤷🏾‍♂️

I really, REALLY want this to happen. I loved Skeleton Crew, and Jon Watts has proven that he knows how to keep the childlike whimsy in popular IPs. I loved Andor…but I don’t ever need another Andor. Give me 75 Skeleton Crews, because that’s what Star Wars should be.

There are any number of facile quips you can make about archvillain and wannabe-Thanos Peter Thiel, but this violent and cruel philosophy is not uncommon in SV: that you cannot be competent/successful without hurting and destroying people. See ‘move fast and break things.’

The visions that SV techbros have for is honestly so dark, so bleak, so isolated and isolating; one where any and all community and connection is pushed aside in this perverse forceful push to transcend our bodies, born of their terror of disability and death. These people decide our futures, my god
itself. Our physical bodies would be discarded, and in their place would rise robotic übermenschen. Our minds, so tragically prone to decline as we age, would be transferred to flawless, immortal code. Machines were about to mature “from the simple devices they still are, to entities as complex as ourselves, to something transcending everything we know, in whom we can take pride when they refer to themselves as our descendants,” Moravec wrote.

From 16,000 to 185 to Zero. The Trump admin claimed as many as 16,000 noncitizens had been registered to vote in Nevada. Then DHS came back and said the number was actually 185. This week, Nevada told the admin every single person on the list was a lawful citizen. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/24/u...

Again, I have ADHD. My colleagues are used to me drawing pictures of Spider-Man or playing w/ trinkets during meetings, even when they were in-person. I rarely make eye-contact. When I have input, best believe I'm going to give it. If I'm asked a question, best believe I have an answer.
