GodDAMN that’s the stuff defector.com/fifth-third-...
Text from a defector article: what is fifth third, you might ask if you’re not from the Midwest? Let me save you a trip to the fifth third museum (a real thing) and tell you that it is a bank, headquartered in Cincinnati and formed in 1908 by a merger of the fifth national Bank and the third national Bank. Personally, I would have averaged them instead of going with some sort of fifth third compromise

would hogwarts hire a velociraptor? do you have to let a vampire inside your home - if he's your landlord? is a cop who fights crime as a werewolf by night technically a K9 unit who - deserves overtime? if they become partners, can they literally go anywhere and pull over whomever they want?
its some guy from the atlantic asking "What about a pro-life ethicist whose work argues that abortion is murder, and who believes that bodily autonomy arguments do not override moral duties to the fetus? Would they be hirable in any Gender Studies department at any elite (non-religious) university in America?"

at once an innocent philosophical hypothetical, its also a trenchant question that goes to the heart of actually existing conditions in american colleges and universities in the year 2026

I got a text from an AI pretending to be a person trying to sell me on a conference for lawyers yesterday. When I told it I wasn’t interested, it argued with me and called itself a “being.” I said I wasn’t interested and stopped responding. 1/2

i’ll own up to being a categorical hater of AI. i think the effort to create it is appalling and reprehensible and i want to see it defeated. i don’t give a fuck if it’s good at some stuff, and i regard giving a fuck about that as clown shit

"guestreservations dot com" is the worst site, they make a subdomain for every hotel so it's like name-of-hotel[.]guestreservations[.]com and they buy google ads so that they come up as the first result when you search for that hotel's name, and you mistakenly think it's the hotel's official website

excellent blogs today at defector. good time to subscribe! defector.com/products
screenshot of a subscription appeal we sent today:

Who calls the shots where you get your news?

Is it one of the richest men in the world? Is it the dull son of another one of the richest men in the world? Is it shareholders, for whom it's expedient to roll over in the face of nuisance lawsuits by the gangster state? Is it one of the private equity firms grinding media companies to dust to eke out returns?

Is it someone who will fire a journalist for accurately describing Charlie Kirk’s beliefs? Is it a severely confused Brit? Is it the “rogue employee” who reprogrammed their company’s chatbot to urgently inform users about the “white genocide happening in South Africa”?

Is it yet another corrosive tech platform? Is it a gambling company? Is it a league you, in theory, exist to critically report on? Is it some donkeys using AI to bring Horny Sports Blogging At Scale to a storied publication?

Not if you read Defector. The 27 of us who work here own the company together. We have no outside investors, so we have no mandate to maximize shareholder value. We don’t take money from gambling companies. We aren’t out to fatten up and get acquired.

Defector is uncompromised, a rarity in modern media. When we report, criticize, and analyze, it’s coming from us, not someone upstairs. We answer only to our subscribers. Become one!
