Oh hey, I'm proud to contribute to worker-owned and independent new site Skybox! This is my essay about having a stroke, losing the ability to write or walk or play video games, and digging myself out of that depressive hole using video games. It's maybe the most vulnerable writing I've ever done.

"People need to realize that criminalizing porn is not ever really about just criminalizing adult content — it's about criminalizing representations of sexuality and gender, and ultimately criminalizing those practices and communities."

This photo I took of a McDonald's under construction has the aesthetic they should always have.

i don't know how often it's mentioned (probably not enough if im guesssing), but this site is a very good one to check out if you want to eradicate ai from your google searches: tenbluelinks.org

Amazingly, reaction times using screens while driving are worse than being drunk or high—no wonder 90 percent of drivers hate using touchscreens in cars. Finally the auto industry is coming to its senses. Real buttons are sooooooo back baby!

The pitch is never that AI will fold the laundry for us, it's always that AI will remove the good stuff from our lives. Picking a birthday present for my kid isn't a box I check, it's something I want to do, and six months later when that's the stuffy she sleeps with I get to feel good about that.

Oh so NOW they want our movie??? 😂 Do yourself a favor, buy it on Blu-Ray when it comes out in a week and OWN it. Support Ketchup Entertainment and their tireless work to help distribute our film, both in theaters and physically.

This is so fucking good

Well, it finally happened. Someone trained an AI on my voice, and used it to generate narration for their YouTube video. Feels pretty bad! Don't like it! I've submitted a privacy complaint with YouTube - hopefully they'll take it down soon.

Tesla now accepts Cybertruck trade-ins, and the official resale loss is $35k over just 6,000 miles. I repeat: according to Tesla itself a Cybertruck loses $5.60 cents per mile, not counting the cost of electricity, tires, etc. Unprecedented levels of flop! www.torquenews.com/11826/tesla-...

4 new words added to the script. I want my lawyer. Every day is shut the fuck up Friday

BREAKING: The House GOP just failed to pass their Big Ugly Bill out of the Budget Committee. They're fighting over how many Americans to rip health care and food away from. Keep up the pressure.

Lmao

the Marathon alpha released recently and its environments are covered with assets lifted from poster designs i made in 2017. @bungie.net @marathonthegame.bungie.net

Tekken series producer Katsuhiro Harada says he wants to make a stage set inside a Waffle House but the US restaurant chain is ignoring his calls for a collaboration. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/tekken-...

The original Doom was full of demons and crosses to be edgy, but metal album art aesthetics aren't edgy anymore. Nobody is gonna accuse Doom: The Dark Ages of being satanic in a bad way or blame it for school shootings. They need to step it up. Doomguy has to transition and get real good at tennis.

For everyone who was like “Google search is getting worse,” we were absolutely right.

Oh wrestling is fake? Then explain this

Giant Bomb lives! Fandom has sold the site to us and it is now fully independent and employee-owned. We'll see you all on Tuesday for the Giant Bombcast. For more info right now, head over to www.giantbomb.com/join

YIKES @soundcloud.dev no thank you

the new york sewer rats have finally elected a new rat pope

‘touch grass’ bro i don’t know if you’re aware but they have portable computers now. i’m clowning on your ass in a secluded glen by a rushing waterfall. a newborn fawn is nuzzling my hand while i quote dunk u

This is The Last Supper now.

you know who else came from chicago and was on "a mission from god"

A Chicago Pope implies the existence of an MLA Pope and APA Pope

Chicago Pope Malort and Savior

A Pope that will finally do what's right: declare ketchup on hot dogs a mortal sin.

This entire situation is such a shitshow. I lived my whole life in Stockholm and the idea of the US government trying to strongarm people here is fucking awful. So in order to turn this into something at least moderately positive I'm going to tell you all a little about Stockholm based on the photo

Piers Morgan is a POS but man is this interview wild - based on the way her tone changes I don't think she realized the implications of what she said until after she said it. If you look closely you can see her realize she is absolutely cooked in real time.

1/ The US government has ordered the Swedish city of Stockholm to end its diversity, inclusivity and equality (DEI) programmes within 10 days. The city authorities say the demand is "bizarre" and they won't be complying. ⬇️

Brilliant to eliminate Energy Star, a program that costs $32m but delivered $40b in annual savings. None other than the US chamber of commerce tried to save it as a model of business/government partnership. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/06/c...

also you all need to see this, because this is something I don't think *anybody* could predict for where this ad goes

Revenue at Duolingo in 2024 was up 41% on 23 to $748M. Net income was up by 451% for same period and yet they're firing workers. We've long been at "insatiable greed" point of late stage capitalism. People may feel helpless but there's a very easy way to kick companies like this. Delete their apps.

We're getting pizza and I'm obsessed with this slightly broken mural that used to be about eating with your hands but now it reads like Saruman's manifesto

The entirety of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health was wiped out last night in a form letter sent by RFK Jr. NIOSH is an agency in the CDC that investigates workplace hazards and finds solutions. It protects workers, so it’s gone. Even firefighters.
