The expression is not “the proof is in the pudding”! It’s “the proof of the pudding is in the eating”—which, unlike the bastardized version, actually makes sense!

Last time Trump called for remigration (a form of ethnic cleansing), national media outlets absolutely failed to cover it. They NEED to do a better job explaining it this time. www.mediamatters.org/donald-trump...

So…about AI’s energy use… “…to create a five-second video, a newer AI model uses ‘about 3.4 million joules, more than 700 times the energy required to generate a high-quality image’. That's the equivalent of running a microwave for over an hour.”

There is a thought that a telltale indicator of economic downturn in the U.S.A. is when law school admissions are up. I'm thinking another "indicator" is a spike in gambling, whether it is sports betting or playing the lottery. #wealthinequality #economics

Catholic religious communities have been doing this. Lay and vowed religious. Young and elderly. I think this would help make a dent in the housing shortage and widespread feeling of loneliness. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/04/b...

I hope everyone knows that it's very easy for any social content platform, including Bluesky, to be a misery machine and that if you aren't intentional about it, they will absolutely decrease the positive impact you have on the world while making you less happy.

USL side Loudoun United are in first place. Behind the scenes, things are much bleaker: turf coming apart at the seams. Showers that don’t work. Players washing their own kits. And a new owner. on @theathleticfc.bsky.social, life at the top of the USL table: www.nytimes.com/athletic/628...

Ecorse has a population of about 9,000 people. I imagine it is difficult to maintain a city budget off of that size of a population. It would make (financial) sense for it to be part of Wyandotte, although probably a painful transition. www.detroitnews.com/story/news/l...

Today I learned Nolan Bushnell, who co-founded Atari, also founded Chuck E. Cheese. He wanted to expand video game arcades outside of bars and pool halls into more family-friendly venues.

Cory Booker breaking Strom Thurmond's record filibuster of the 1957 Civil Rights Act, 24 hours and 18 minutes, while talking about John Lewis is very appropriate.

Video games have been part of mainstream American culture for a while now. I think there isn't much original IP now because these large gaming companies are too rigid. Teensy developers Novadust Entertainment made #Europa, which I finished today. Maybe I should play more indie games. 😮‍💨🤔

One thing I love about the men's #OpenCup is that the professional teams tend to win the battle for possession and have more accurate passes but the amateur and semi-pro sides are more clinical with their chances.

BREAKING: On a 5-4 order, SCOTUS denies DOJ’s motion to vacate Judge Ali’s State/USAID order, but notes that his prior deadline passed, so Ali is going to have to go back to the drawing board and “clarify” what the gov’t needs to do, “with due regard for the feasibility of any compliance timelines.”

Microsoft bought Skype in 2011. Skype was the premier app for video calls. In 2020, a global pandemic happened. People rely on video calls. Some app nobody heard of to stomp Skype into oblivion. In 2025, Microsoft is shutting down Skype. ugh

I'd flip this. The right has an ideologically coherent project, which is the defense of hierarchies that have dominated American society and opposition to policies that undermine them. Liberals and the left by contrast believe vaguely in helping people they feel sorry for but don't agree how or why.
