The baseline level of Dumb Guy Pretending To Be Even Dumber in our culture is incredibly high at the moment, but this is an all-time performance in that category. Hall of Fame work in any era.

25 years later and The Onion’s ParentCorner 9/11 explainer from immediately after the attack is a better understanding of the threat environment than the one produced by the U.S. government.

An Onion article titled “Talking to your child about the WTC attack,” which is filled with real good info.

THE DIAPER

The Diaper by The Seed Kompany is a slightly sativa dominant hybrid made by crossing
Super Silver Haze F4 and Dirty Taxi. The flavor of this strain is earthy, pungent, and skunky. Most people report feeling energetic,

This reminds me of being at the gate in Atlanta and some old guy is yapping at the agent. Me (to my wife and brother): Calm down, Gary Busey. It was Gary Busey, who procedes to turn to the crowd of onlookers and advise, "You're allowed to be loud when you got diarrhea." Truer words, amirite?

Axios writer: I melted my brain with AI. Not only can I no longer read, but I don't even understand the purpose of reading anymore. Here's how you can also do this. www.axios.com/2026/08/11/r...

Axios: AI has become my reading buddy as I've plowed through my summer book list, helping me keep track of plots and characters, unpack themes, and make sense of wordy, old prose.

Why it matters: The way many of us actually read books — a few pages before bed, a chapter at the beach, another on a plane — makes it easy to lose the thread. AI can help you pick it back up without starting over.
📖 I really got into using AI while reading James Fenimore Cooper's "The Last of the Mohicans." The text was far too dense for casual vacation reading. My first prompt asked:

"I'd like a guide as I read The Last of the Mohicans who can help me understand what I've read and where the story is, without giving spoilers or getting ahead of my progress. Can you do this, chapter by chapter?"
The robot agreed: "Cooper's sentences are long and his diction is archaic."

I just read The Doloriad, that shit nasty I previously read Williams' second novel, The Vivisectors, which features a hilariously hateful unreliable narrator who is extremely relatable in both (1) her utter teenage despising of everything, and, (2) her sociopathic bragging about her step count

You might get sick of hearing this but if he keeps doing it I'm gonna keep saying it: this is an unconstitutional impoundment, violating both Congress' Article I spending authority and the 1974 Impoundment Control act, and immediately impeachable.

The US is adopting a strategy of attacking water storage and desalination plants designed to render the region uninhabitable. If continued, this strategy will make the Gulf littoral uninhabitable in the coming decades. Yet there is no discussion of these tactics and their repercussion in the US.

A heavily edited, dubbed American cut of The Mandalorian and Grogu, retitled "Bastard of the Green Jedi" ("Mondo Mando" in some regions), did well on the midnight-movie circuit; the film's infamous unsimulated sex scenes were shot separately and inserted by the distributor for the adult market.

When I post, I enter a state of mushin (無心), thinking only of my duty to post, much like the 17th samurai Suzuki Shōsan who unhesitatingly decapitated a child lord at the Battle of Osaka. This is an extreme comparison, but a poster must cultivate “posting energy” and be ready to post at any time.
