I mean, look, if Mamdani actually had invented time travel, went back in time and invented Twitter so it existed six years before it was created, to tweet about something that happened when he was 9 yeas old, with a picture of him at age 33, well... then maybe it's something to talk about...

idk how to tell rural americans who vote for republicans that the republican plan for those americans is to just get sick and die. it just is. that’s it. die and stop costing the country money, that’s money they think rich people should have.

Something to Note: Every major category of violent crime is down in Chicago, but there is no push to declare the progressive mayor Brandon Johnson a successful crime fighter because he didn’t invest in militarization. Even when progressives are successful, they won’t get credit.

Why is lying during confirmation hearings not considered perjury? And don’t say “because they’re not under oath” because why tf not?

What good is being right about all of this if we can’t even gloat because this shit is all so awful?

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

Generative AI has the same basic approach to copyrighted content as Napster did, the only difference is mega corporations can benefit from AI instead of teenagers with no money.

When you really think about it, kissing is like “I love you so much, here’s some germs." And we can’t get enough of that shit.

My fellow UConn fans will probably not like this take, but I would not be surprised at all if Paige doesn’t win ROTY. She’s not the number one scoring option for Dallas so she’s not going to put up gaudy numbers.

Ok, hear me out: a basketball tournament at Rucker Park, hosted by Azzi Fudd and her Mom, sponsored by Fuddrucker’s.

it’s giving Watchmen!!! not a good vibe!!!!

Kinda wild that the whole concept of priesthood in all religions is that a deity is basically saying “I was going to let this devoted follower of mine just die, but this other guy in a robe asked me to save him, so I guess he’s cured now”

I’m just saying, if the Celtics go down 0-3 and then come all the way back to win this series against New York they will be revered forever in Boston.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times using gifs. (“Hard mode” no Star Wars, Star Trek, or LOTR)

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Don't be surprised if the "concessions" Donald Trump is looking for from foreign countries in exchange for dialing back tariffs are not "you need to buy more pork from American farmers" but "you need to lease another floor in Trump Tower for ten years."

So proud and happy for this team #UConnWBB

It was pretty clear tonight why Final Four experience matters in both of these games. The experienced teams didn’t panic when they made mistakes and capitalized when the inexperienced teams did pretty much every time.

U! C! O! N! N! UConn! UConn! UConn!

Jana doing a solid job guarding Betts so far

Literally everything the Trump Musk administration is doing is a scheme to transfer wealth from the lower and middle class to the oligarch class. And you dummies voted for it.

I hope this Nintendo stuff helps get it into your head that companies, even beloved gaming companies are not looking out for your interests as a gamer. They are out to make money. Your money. The more you cape for them the more you enable them to price gouge to make their investors richer.

It took Kaitlyn Chen a long time to really feel comfortable in this offense, but she showed tonight why Geno brought her here. Just a bunch of gutsy plays and poise when they needed it.

These Aubrey Griffin minutes have been huge.

Azzi needs to work on getting her shot off against longer defenders. She looks lost on offense.

USC’s length is reeeally bothering Azzi
