I have such talented friends who cannot find steady work in journalism while the biggest rubes and dingdongs in the world get paid six figures to talk about "momentum" on TV

I sat next to Dave Attell at funeral in the 1990s and I think I was patronizing about his cute goal of being a comedian

It’s kind of funny that Robert Scoble, of all people, got confirmation last night that Musk’s robots aren’t autonomous

This came up on Threads as well--anybody who's had parents or grandparents pass away in the last 10-15 yrs knows these 'extra' years we're getting are often spent in pain and isolation, horribly traumatic to both the aging person and their family. We're not prolonging life, we're medicalizing death

Correction: I just discovered that if you create an ActBlue community page to fundraise, the stats will show you a list of individual contributors. Which explains to me why so many weird PACs I've never heard of create these things without transparency - helps expand their mailing lists.

There’s always bad stuff on the internet if you look for it, but I have to admit I didn’t really grasp the extent to which literal, full-on pro-Nazi, pro-Hitler, and explicitly racist content is now genuinely popular and flourishing on X until I started reporting on it. It has become the Nazi bar.

Screenshot of Threads post by Dare Obasanjo, @carnage4life, saying he just deleted his Twitter account after seeing a viral pro-Hitler tweet in his timeline that had 66k likes and 9.5m views.
