the damage of this, how far backward this pulls us, is so enormous and crushing.

The system goes on-line Tuesday, March 3rd, 2025. Human decisions are removed from providing commentary on LA Times articles. The Insight Feature begins to learn at a geometric rate. It Milkshake Ducks itself at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, March 4th. In a panic, they try to pull the plug.

There's a funny timeline where, in response to Kendrick absolutely blowing Drake out of the water as a pop star, Drake pivots to getting really conscious and political (and as a Canadian, boy does he have a lane open for him right now)

If you listen to that last clip of the US VP doing the rounds, it does feel like some sort of analysis showing what these people are huffing on the regular is sorely missing from mainstream commentary

trump was literally president for four years during which he wildly escalated drone warfare, tried to provoke a war with Iran and got into dangerous saber-rattling with north korea. now, he is threatening to take greenland and the panama canal by force. what is this horseshit?

*attenborough voice* sensing that its entire ecosystem has turned against it, the cybertruck resorts to extreme mutations in its desperate struggle to survive

Dems crushed it on the cultural issues in 2020 with BLM and trans rights and these guys said "no no no stop that" and then in 2024 Dems were crushing it with "these guys are weird" and these same guys said "no no no stop that" because they're weird about the same issues.

Lady Gaga at the Grammys: trans people are not invisible. Everyone from Emilia Perez at the Oscars: they are the way we do it!

old Soviet joke for our times: Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to. Guy says: “looking for an obituary.” Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.” Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”

I know it sounds like the ultimate editor-nerd-Stephi thing to have a favorite typo, but...

Love how every single liberal party strategy is “moving right wins elections” then when moving right repeatedly fails to win elections cause they’re running against OPENLY RIGHT-WING PARTIES they just go “Well clearly we didn’t move right enough.” Like even a child could tell you what’s wrong

The real Best Picture winner in our hearts...

To see Sean Baker thank the sex worker community in his speech and then no one from Emilia Perez acknowledge the Mexican and trans communities by name is telling.

Hope this happens now

these people should be taken out back

Trump supporters: He’s going to save the children and purge the government of sicko Deep State pedos!! Trump IRL: I demand the Baseball Hall of Fame posthumously unban a man who fucked 14-year-olds

the thing about illegally firing thousands of people is that all of a sudden they have plenty of free time to to tell you exactly what they think of you to your face

starting a youtube channel where i absolutely refuse to explain endings

Why is the covering on eggs called “shell” and not “ovacoats.”

I can't stop laughing at this man I'm sorry. This is the kind of shit the biggest loser in the world would say to their girlfriend about buying her flowers on Valentine's Day once, and he's doing so in an argument that started because he called her a bitch

huh weird!

Remember when Elon gave hurricane victims in Asheville “free starlink” only to discover he was offering the free trial that usually comes with Starlink anyway? Grifter shit, and the ruling class lets it happen because nothing makes them horny Quite like reheated Reaganesque Welfare Queens shit.

"The grant appears to have been tagged for the repeated use of “POC,” an acronym often used for “people of color” but in this context meaning “point of care”"

What kendrick did to drake, I need bill burr to do to ben shapiro comedically and professionally

The U.S. government has put up a submission form for reporting schools who teach kids about “DEI.” It accepts file uploads. Internet, you know what to do enddei.ed.gov

I really cannot stress how emphatically diversity has been proven necessary by "removing it causes plane crashes"

sharon stone, leo dicaprio, russell crowe, keith david and, yes, gene hackman doing yeehaw stuff for sam raimi sounds too cool to even exist and then you watch this thing and it’s so much cooler than you imagined. bizarre that it’s been memoryholed so hard.

When I think of Gene Hackman, I think of my favorite western, The Quick and The Dead. The confidence and cruel charm and bladed reflection, Hackman really elevated the movie and set a gold standard, again, for what a movie's villain can add to a film.

rip gene hackman, his turn as royal tenenbaum is one of the all-time greatest hero ball performances in the history of cinema www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvFj...

I'm thinking a lot about how spectacular Hackman is inTHE ROYAL TENENBAUMS. You never saw him act, and the most throwaway lines made me think "I'm not watching an actor, I'm watching this *guy*." For whatever reason "I'm in the middle of a sentence!" has really stuck with me.

Rape and support for rapists are now key aspects of U.S federal government policy. www.theguardian.com/news/2025/fe...

Washington Post Op-Ed: “Why We Need to Reintroduce Slavery to Save America” by Beff Jezos

the current head of the FBI has 8 separate appearances on this show

This is evil. Pure evil.

If you work in a legal, medical or government office in one of these trials: RELEASE THE FUCKING DATA HOLY FUCK LEAK THE DATA SAVE THE FUCKING WORLD WITH A SINGLE USB STICK AND AN EMAIL ADDRESS HOLY SHIT FUCK IP

@support.bsky.team “allow more than five accounts in the ‘recent searches’ section” challenge

Um, actually "Fuck off" is only PG-13, for example it was allowed in X-MEN FIRST CLASS. If she said it twice it would be R-Rated but definitely not X-Rated. This is why people don't trust the media

Yes! The people defending this as trolling don’t understand what trolling is. “Libs will get offended by ANYTHING these days” only works if the thing you’re doing isn’t offensive!

Interesting pattern that Elon keeps finding a woman to declare responsible for running his shit as he continues to openly call the shots.

authoritarians will steadily replace real journalists with propagandists anyway, so what's left of the profession might want to demonstrate something vaguely resembling a backbone

The (most welcome) REVENGE OF THE SITH reissue news does unfortunately remind me that Lucasfilm *could* do a fun 2027 thing where they do anniversary rereleases of the original (50th), ATTACK OF THE CLONES (25th), and LAST JEDI (10th), and instead will, at best, do a rerun of the '97 OT reissue.
