Donald Trump just unilaterally bombed Iran. A masked gang is terrorizing our streets. America has rapidly devolved into an authoritarian state. That's why, today, The Onion has purchased a full page ad in today's New York Times with a simple plea to Congress: Sit back and do absolutely nothing.

I remember working in an anesthesia research lab in 1988ish with an Iranian guy and one of my co-workers explaining how if he wasn’t here helping us with our medical research he’d be back home driving a tank as Saddam fodder. He was a good guy.

Apparently it is 81 outside tonight. And windy. So not bad. But the humidity betrays. So much energy in the air. I don’t think this bodes well for future KC weather when a cool front eventually comes through. It’s tornado season year round now. At least the winds is keeping the bugs at bay.

The reason Elon made Grok in the first place was because he assumed OpenAI was turning the secret “woke” dial up too high and small parameter tweaks could make it right-wing. Now he has realized the only way to get the AI to agree with him is to lobotomize it by rewriting the entire training set.

So after like 3-4 years of dabbling, I'm sorta getting better at woodworking with hand tools. Like I understand the "language" now. To where I'm making mistakes to learn technique, primarily limited by the climate of my workspace and the availability of my energy.

it is funny how many people affiliated with the secret police have had to say "stop making fun of the secret police, the guy in the tac vest that covers him like a training bra is a hero, he tracked down and subdued two hospice orderlies using only the W-2 forms they file annually"

Watching network TV for the first time in a long time and when did Nightline become Dollar Store TMZ? Ted Koppel would be spinning in his grave if he wasn't dead yet.

Andreessen Horowitz being the lead investor on the funding round for a startup building products that help you cheat in interviews is a major sign of how the pretense is over. Changing the world for the better was a nice trope but it’s all about making money for investors, whatever it takes.

Why is the media covering what a man who has spent his career harassing women in sports media and has multiple allegations of sexual misconduct against him says about women's sports?

this post reminded me, masked vigilantes were such a scourge that Congress made it a felony to "go in disguise upon the public highway" for the purpose of interfering with the free exercise of constitutional rights in the Enforcement Act of 1870

They came to me, big strong steel workers with tears in their eyes, they said "Mr. President! You've got to stop all these holidays! We hate having to spend time away from work, with our disgusting families, sir!"

Famously remember FDR announcing on 5/23/1944: “I will decide in two weeks if we will invade Europe.” It’s always reality cliff hanger TV with this guy.

Antonella Wilby said an #OceanGate director told her, "You have a bad attitude. You don't have an explorer mindset. You know, we're innovative and we're cowboys, and a lot of people can't handle that." abcnews.go.com/US/titan-sub...

The gunman no doubt thought of himself as a good person, as someone who was pro-life, but his ideology brought him to a place where he shot 17 bullets into a couple who got into politics to help get health insurance for his daughter, who has spina bifida.

I don’t get why so many people in the media want to kiss up to Sam Altman, honestly. OpenAI is a banana republic with a product that only really grew because Google never bothered to innovate in search. Embarrassing. We should mock Sam Altman

Billy Long's sole qualification to run the IRS is that, in 2023–24, he ran a large-scale tax fraud operation. I am not making this up.
