Hot take: There hasn't been a really good James Bond movie since Goldeneye and Amazon did a perfect job with Rings of Power (and Reacher is great, too) so I'm not disappointed by this at all

I shared this article on my FB page, and in doing so, had to click through four different screens explaining why Meta was covering up this image because it might be violent or offensive. The thumbnail is a picture of a football player in his uniform. It's the message they don't like.

My illegal Pinkerton is driving me to my illegal hotel while the hallucination machine in my phone summarizes the emails my coworkers wrote using their hallucination machines. My burrito travels separately in its own limo. This is innovation and normal.

Everybody selling the Fujifilm X100VI on Facebook Marketplace is a scam I'm glad I'm smart enough to say "no I'm not mailing you a cashier check before you ship" but I'll bet the total haul is in BILLIONS for FB scamming

Hmm, why would a big tech company keep pursuing a technology that makes its human workforce stupid? It's almost like the end goal is to get rid of the human workforce

Camera shopping is an escalating series of "but for a bit more I could get..." until you finally say "NO, I'm not spending $6K on a Leica" and shut it all down

Hey #camerasky I need advice! My tax refund will cover a Fuji X100VI, but should I just get a X-T50 (or X-T5?!) with a 23mm lens instead? I have a big Nikon and I'm happy with my lenses, I want manual controls and something a bit smaller/different Thoughts Fuji fans?

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

One sad sign of aging from your 20s to your 40s is you no longer ask people if they had fun on their day off In your 20s, random days off are "there was a one-day pop-up art exposition in Worcester..." In your 40s it's "my ex-wife needed a ride home after her colonoscopy"

We don’t have to pretend to be interested in super bowl commercials. “Two actors reunite for mayonnaise commercial” does not need to be treated like an event. We can be free.
