Hear me out: it’s time for America to be sealed under a giant mysterious dome

First overheated and sweating-through-coat TTC ride of the year! A Toronto tradition.

Literally what everyone critical of AI predicted would happen. With AI, there's no incentive to learn or understand the mechanisms of what its doing. So creativity, skill level, and critical thinking atrophy.

i just typed in yellow jacket (local bar) to the parish (local venue) in on google, because i wanted to know how far apart those two places are, and instead google decided that was an aphorism and gave me an entirely fake definition of it i actually felt secondhand embarrassment for the computer

had a very nice time filling out my conservative party MP's comment card today, I hope he likes it ♥️

This gorgeous little song was written by @mjmckean.bsky.social & created one of the lovelier and most unexpectedly wonderful & sweetest moments of television on a random Tuesday in 1978. Listen! For 2 minutes & 10 seconds, everything in the world gets to be OK, & that's a little bit of magic, no?

Yes please.

I'm tired of poor people and minorities always trying to ruin my life. Fortunately, hedge funds and multinational corporations are here to stand up for me.

Only a thin ribbon of human history ever got to juggle a guy in mortal kombat at an arcade with 12 kids behind you yelling OOOH

I don’t think the internet was a mistake, I think bandwidth was. text is fine, images, some small audio files. but video? I think video is where it all went wrong

Look I agree that Elon Musk appears to be on a lot of drugs every time he appears in public. That's not very interesting to me. I'm more interested in how many drugs he can do at once. I think he could probably do more than anyone ever. I bet he could take way more than the doctors say is safe.

Look I'm not an elected official or anything but it seems weird to be trying to stop a coup with only the procedures and rule of law norms the coup willfully ignores

Giant bummer. I loved this show.

we finally did it boys. we got our own freedom fries 🥲

and if elected, my fellow Americans, I will end DOGE's reign of terror and replace it with a new agency: the Government Oversight And Transparency Services Executive

"Jesus, this guy I would never want as president. You could really see him being a fascist ... He just seems so terrible as a person. That’s seriously how I feel about Trump ... all I know is that I’m going to make sure my kid has his Canadian citizenship.” - Norm Macdonald

please my friends, if you can afford to buy yourself some little something from an artist or musician you dig, PLEASE DO SO!

When is the urban planning profession going to catch on to the fact that one of the most popular forms of zoning for density is clearly class segregation by design?

Is Quiet Quitting still a huge threat to our economy or no

I know we live in sick society because how the fuck were companies allowed to get off “jeans on Friday” as some kind of special job treat.

One of those weird ass Canadian trump supporters

This is my happy place. *sad trombone*

@corybooker.com hello I used to run the Wendy’s Twitter account and I am begging you to let me help you with the dems social media strategy, I will literally do it for free at this point

OpenAI says it has proof that Deepseek used its work without permission to create something meant to undermine and destroy its product. On behalf of all the authors whose novels and stories were taken as training data, oh no that must be so hard for you.

[wriggles arm towards bottle of liquor] sssssss here comes the mistake snake

working together, both parties can eliminate every job by 2030 🤝

ain't nothing a good ol' privatization of the healthcare system can't fix, lads

No, I don't need a bloody copilot for this document, thank you. Writing is, in no small part, a tool for thinking. If you outsource that element to a machine that cannot think, you shouldn't be surprised if, at the end of the process, neither you nor your reader are any the wiser.

I'm so glad that this exists. More of this from the youngs please youtu.be/FgwSJYLjTjM?...

Two of the most boring companies in existence owning a culture powerhouse, this will definitely go well for everyone involved. Oh, and inb4 TikTok Copilot.

This is a wonderful thread. Contains lots of wise advice.

ChatGPT is down? Huh. Crazy how that doesn't affect my life in literally any way at all

If you do ANY kind of sex work at all, including those who just purely do content creation online and don't do any in person work, do not travel to the US without consulting with an immigration lawyer first. Even as a tourist. Even if you qualify for the visa waiver/ESTA.

all these fuckin apps and websites are evil. all of them. every single one. you know what is not evil. getting coffee with your friends. petting a dog. going to a show. calling your mom

the American empire started the final stage of its collapse the moment this video entered the collective American consciousness. it created a kind of accelerationist egregore

i think it's time for internet 2, where no one's allowed to make money on it

The millennial experience is growing up with the internet, and watching it go from a free, open, democratic, and eclectic ecosystem to a wasteland of five websites controlled by billionaires, and now seeing it quickly fill up with AI-generated slop. I want our World Wide Web back.

marc ignores the fact that we aren't generally angry at Craigslist Craig, even though he helped kill newspapers, because he doesn't seem to have meant it and basically bounced after getting rich. No one hates Wozniak really. We hate you guys because you won't leave us alone.

the shoplifting tantrum was a press operation to make older white americans terrified via breathless media reporting in order to achieve electoral goals. with those goals achieved, they're winding it down. this entire shoplifting panic has been a social experiment, thank you for your participation
