The BlueSky presence of an actual human being banging their head on a keyboard (not the work of AI). I feel so woozy...

Today's phrase: "Algorithmic Complacency" Otherwise known as letting the algorithm feed you information, instead of seeking out information for yourself. It caused us to lose control of the information we receive, and shapes how we view the world, for better or worse. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEJp...

Stephen Pastis made this comic at the end of 2019. It keeps becoming more and more relevant, much like how the movie Idiocracy keeps creeping from satire to a documentary.

The burn...

The Righteous Gemstones is an absolute masterpiece. There's no other show out there that cuts through evangelical bullshit quite like it. The writing is phenomenal. The characters are just as ridiculous as faith leaders are in real life. It's beautiful!

Luigi Mangione has certainly tapped into the frustration of folks whose lives have been ruined by health insurers making it way too hard to get the healthcare they need, if they get it at all. But we're the bad people for not being a bit sad about a CEO taking a bullet for his misdeeds. Right...

Um, what?

Next election, the Dems need to figure out how you convince the "Pwn the Libs" crowd that their existence will be worse under their candidate, without inadvertently selling them on said candidate. Some reverse psychology, perhaps? Maybe heap praise on him until they associate him with a liberal?

I can't be the only one who's distinctly disinterested in the events and happenings of the soon-to-be-again Trump administration. There's literally nothing he can do at this point that should be a surprise to anyone, other that dropping dead.

I dumped X before dumping X was cool. Not really, but it kinda feels like I was early to the party this time. 😁

Meanwhile, on the InfoWars website:

Situation Normal

Yay! An EV manufacturer FINALLY gets the message! Anything to keep people from tying up all the public chargers!

"The woman behind an early Facebook post spreading a harmful and baseless claim about Haitian immigrants eating local pets ... says she had no firsthand knowledge of any such incident and is now filled with regret and fear as a result of the ensuing fallout." Actions, even on FB, have consequences.

Trump doing the one thing he's good at - marketing bulls*** to abject morons. He might've recently lost his campaign mojo, but he can still sell crap! www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Guilty.

I'm not sure people realize how huge it is that Dems won new legislative maps in Wisconsin. This defeats some of the worst gerrymandering anywhere. On today's pod, we dig into this with Greta Neubauer, the head of Wisconsin Assembly Dems. 1/ Listen👇 newrepublic.com/article/1791...

Attention whore has been deprived of attention too long.

Remembering what's important:

Anti-Swifties everywhere howl in pain.

Spotted? Like the cows on the beer label? "Spotted 'Nado" would be an interesting beer name!

Vince was west of the tornado circulation from last night's tornado in southern WI at the same time I was capturing video of it from the east. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMBk...

Snce anti-abortion activists based their lawusit on a scientific paper that has now been retracted, will federal judges still take the lawsuit seriously? They *shouldn't*, but there's a lot of things that happen in court that *shouldn't*.

2nd clip of tonight's tornado in Rock County in southern Wisconsin. This storm is moving away from me and to my right. The funnel is visible during certain lightning flashes but not others. www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPlN...

Spotted my first tornado tonight. It's the first on record in Wisconsin in February. 2024 is all kinds of weird!

I never pegged February as the month I would spot my first tornado! Damn, Wisconsin, your weather is crazy! My apologies to the poor 911 operator - I might've been a bit excited!

😀🤣😂

At long last, the justice system finally figures out how to hold parents responsible for their children's involvement in a school shooting.

This isn't rocket surgery...

Anyone else feel like adult Calvin would be a podcast host?
