actively rooting for the AI bubble to pop. not so hard that the whole economy crashes and i lose my job. but hard enough that the dummies at the top feel stupid and we can all crack jokes about how dumb AI was.

hardest part getting a tattoo is not the needle in your skin it’s the loud music plus 4 tattoo machines buzzing at slightly different frequencies plus overlapping conversations all in a square box room with framed flash lining the walls that sound bounces off. absolute nightmare of overstimulation.

I know this has been pointed out many times by many people but I just want to reiterate: Anthropic is basically using Kurt Vonnegut's drawing of an asshole as the Claude logo

see the trick is to keep the maldon salt flakes in a jar on the counter and then walk by it multiple times a day and give it a little shake so the big flakes come to the top then pick around to find the biggest one and eat it

it used to feel like my peers and i were working together to solve problems. now it feels like the “team” is actually a small army of claude agents talking back and forth to each other through us humans all day. what a trash world we’ve created.

every release announcement slack message from product managers is the same. i can’t bring myself to even read them anymore. there is no life, no human connection, no personality. it’s maddening. and i feel like i’m falling behind because i’m abstaining from fully committing to joining the masses.

every PR description is now verbose output from claude. i gloss over them because it’s so immediately recognizable as AI drivel. PR/code reviews from my peers are output from some jank ass claude skill someone whipped up. no human thought, no manual testing or confirmation. no connection or care.

i’m at a breaking point with the pervasive use of generative AI in product / design / engineering teams. but i also can’t *not* play the game, because my livelihood is wrapped up in it. i hate it here and welcome any asteroid or similar catastrophic event.

I wrote about Justice Neil Gorsuch Pikachu-facing throughout oral argument in Wolford v. Lopez today bc the Court told states that modern gun laws must have "historical analogues" and, as it turns out, a lot of historical laws are racist ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/wolfo...
ballsandstrikes.org
The Supreme Court’s “History and Tradition” Test Just Ran Into America’s History and Tradition of Anti-Black Racism
Requiring "historical analogues" for modern gun laws eventually turns up some history that makes even the conservative justices uncomfortable.

seeing a lot of southern baptist folks big mad about people protesting inside the church, but none of them denying the pastor is indeed an ICE agent. is it really a sacred building at that point? i want to see you (try to) defend his actions using your (probably ESV) bible.

is anyone surprised that the church in minneapolis with an ICE agent pastor is a southern baptist church?

The refusal to consider DC Statehood is largely a reluctance to give DC two Senators, which itself is a tacit admission that the United States Senate is an anti-democratic institution.

you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric

Cool. What would you call the other wing then? www.nytimes.com/2025/11/03/u...
“I’m in the ‘Hitler sucks’ wing of the Republican Party,” Senator Lindsey Graham, Republican of South Carolina, said over the weekend at the R.J.C. event. “Here’s what I do know: You can sit in a basement with weird people and say weird things. It’s a free country.”
