Relient K did The Tonight Show three times and I think it was because Jay Leno kept asking his assistant to get him a Reliant K for his car collection, and the assistant was confused.

Ah damn it turns out this whole political system relies on false assumptions about how big of an asshole someone could be

Pretty big JoeBlogs news ... I'm changing a whole bunch of things over at the newsletter and moving it to @beehiiv.com! We're going to have some fun!

One of the worst things about AI is that it devalues Actually Doing Something. The act of researching or reading is valuable in and of itself. If we're just asking the computer to do everything for us we're turning into the slobs from Wall-E.

There used to be this thing where it was like "ugh why does any discussion of anything on the internet always get to Hitler in like 4 seconds?!?!" and now the answer is "because the majority party in America is constantly doing Hitler things or talking about how much they like Hitler"

pretty psyched with severance season 2 so far so at least there's that

lol, okay, sure. Let’s do that too. Why not

I understand that ChatGPT is down and fortunately this is not a problem for me as I have spent considerable time developing a local language model that I am able to run autonomously, fueled by Coke Zero and snacks

“I had a feeling that there were people watching what was happening and wondering, Was anyone going to say anything?” Bishop Mariann Budde explained. “Was anyone going to say anything about the turn the country’s taking?” So, she took a breath, and spoke. nyti.ms/3WtmNY2

Your annual reminder that Dr. King believed in guaranteed universal basic income that gave all people a dignified life, guaranteed housing for all, guaranteed access to a high quality education, and said that “no one should be forced to live in poverty while others live in luxury.”

“Surgical” *drink*

Not the first person to say this but the fact that he’s not gotten a second head coaching opportunity is such a key part of the Chiefs dynasty

Trying and struggling to think of any consumer facing tech that feels *less* consumer driven than generative AI

Hi everybody. I created a new JoeBlogs YouTube channel because I heard that's what all the cool kids are doing ... and also because we need a place to put our new PosCast video clips (yes, VIDEO CLIPS!). I'll also tell some stories, do some interviews, we'll try to have some fun. Come subscribe!
