Fuck me I guess www.theverge.com/news/620695/...

Neurotypical people get mad at me for puns and wordplay as if they aren’t the ones who decided conversations should be PVP smh

I’m going to re-link this because I just hit @detroitfootball.net ‘s section, and damn, I wish I had thought of “custom hoodie as protest against tiresome journalism practices” miketanier.substack.com/p/wild-frogs...

“Or perhaps you are are an emotionally-balanced person with a fulfilling personal life and have barely paid attention to the NFL Scouting Combine.” Okay, didn’t realize I was paying @miketanier.bsky.social to neg me, but go off miketanier.substack.com/p/wild-frogs...

Sucks that not only are they destroying our country, I have to hear about these absolute losers and dweebs constantly

we need more ADHD representation in football. there should be a starting NFL QB with imposter syndrome and rejection sensitive dysphoria

When a form has a character limit that is only checked on the webapp, here's how you bypass it (in Chrome-based browsers; others will be similar). 1. Open DevTools with a right-click and "Inspect Element" 2. Double-click the "maxlength" value and change it.

This is a good explanation of why people should use Ghost over Substack: micahflee.com/not-only-is-...

The NFL Combine coverage advertised the use of AI in producing scouting reports as part of their partnership with Microsoft. One of the first pieces I wrote for my newsletter was about how misguided it is to use AI in sportswriting - www.wideleft.football/p/artificial...

I’m not doomscrolling I’m just desperately sucking the marrow from the bones of hope

One of the more annoying things about betting numbers forcing themselves all over sports sites is that I have no idea what the fuck they mean. Do I want my team to be +300 or -300, purely from a “most likely to win” standpoint, not a “how can I ruin my life gambling” standpoint?

I feel like I'm going insane every time I see a media story about DOGE that doesn't also mention the fact that the Government Accountability Office exists and performs the exact function that DOGE pretends to, only in a credibly constitutional, non-partisan, and conflict-of-interest-free manner

Roses are red Like my cheeks when I blush Less than a week ago the Eagles sacked Patrick Mahomes six times with just a standard four man rush

Googles response basically being “it’s not making things up, it’s just incapable of telling facts from made up bullshit” would have destroyed a product in the days before the economy was propped up by a thin framework of scams lashed together with investment capital

Kendrick Lamar has 22 Grammies and a damn Pulitzer if you don’t know who he is that’s a You problem

“Oh, did a sportsball happen?” I whisper smugly from my vantage point on a distant cliff, the sounds of celebration in the village far below just barely audible over the lonely wind whipping my tattered cloak

I don’t think I would reach that number over the course of *three* years without counting socks and underwear individually.

Is today the Super Bowl for people being sanctimonious about planning not to watch (potentially as part of a deliberate boycott) the Super Bowl?

Every review of AI is like: This isn’t very useful and it makes it harder to do simple tasks than if I just did it myself. Riddled with errors. Can’t see anyone using this. I feel stupider having tried this. That said I believe it will soon make human cognition redundant and eradicate us all.

Feeling kinda guilty for heading back to macOS after banging the Linux drum for a year, but not enough that I haven’t enjoyed having a more stable, less fiddly experience despite doing moderately cursed things like using Aerospace.

Hey man sorry to hear about all your political turmoil. Would it help if I scrolled around on the computer all day and drove myself insane?

Here we go. Referee had to make himself the story at some point.

A fun thing about being in the U.S. right now is not only do I have to live through a fresh new headline from hell every half hour, but also have folks from other countries say I deserve it because I’m dumb, bigoted, etc. when at worst I’m only one of those things. Cool.

Do Not Comply In Advance: bossy, already a cliche, implies permission to comply later Fuck You, Make Me: leads by example, directs yelling at opposition instead of allies, easy to chant at a protest or put on a banner

By the way you would not BELIEVE how hard I’m stickin to sports lately. Holding fast to sports like it’s a fucking lifeboat

The Medicare portal went down because of a “technical issue,” the HUD funding portal was down for at least two days, now this. Weird coincidences suddenly plaguing the technology systems that disburse federal money.
