“The MAGA crowd is made of dumb people — like, SUPER dumb people. And they fall for it.”
For my @wired.com feature debut, I talked to Sam, a guy who made thousands of dollars on Instagram by scamming MAGA men with Emily Hart, an AI generated, Trump-loving influencer. www.wired.com/story/ai-gen...

Goated Massachusetts moment

It’s a really brilliant mix. The Napoleonic Wars pastiche is just one element
Yeah I’m excited, reading JS was a revelation. Going to check our her short stories set in that world as well
They really decided to make a fantasy novel for Master & Commander bros…
I just put it on hold at the library lol
it’s the most realistic portrayal of magical knowledge imo
Finished this book last night and it was maybe the best fantasy novel I’ve ever read?
Just thought to myself “I should really get into William Morris” and then realized this is a Peep Show bit
Gonna be honest I tune people out when they use the word “illiberal”

Sid Rosenberg O @sidrosenberg19 X.com Just when you thought things couldn't get worse we found out today that Mr. Met is a raging antisemite!
Sid Rosenberg • @sidrosenberg19 X.com This was me at Citifield last season being IGNORED by Mr. Met! Yesterday Mr. AND Mrs. Met were hugging and kissing our Antisemite Mayor @NYCMayor! Easy to conclude that Mr. Met is an Antisemite!!!!!
Sid Rosenberg @sidrosenberg19 X.com l'll be 59 on Sunday:) For the first time ever I'm sporting a Yankee jersey as I make my way to the Bronx. The official transition from a life long Met fan to a Yankee fan is now underway. Like my friend @CGasparino once wrote "Go Woke, Go Broke!" The Mamdani Mets are too WOKE for me! See ya at the Stadium soon fans!
Absolutely dying at right-wing radio host Sid Rosenberg getting so angry that Mr. and Mrs. Met hugged @mayor.nyc.gov that he started calling them antisemites and became a Yankees fan.
The Seaport rules. We went there a few years ago
The Texas Rangers have unveiled a controversial new statue modeled after Jay Banks, a former Texas law enforcement officer known for enforcing school segregation.
The unveiling preceded the MLB’s celebration of Jackie Robinson Day, which commemorates the first African American MLB player.
Hell yes where are you going? Can’t go wrong with New Bedford!

Wife and I are taking a trip to Gettysburg in a few weeks. All part of my master plan to convince her to visit Waterloo…
Legitimately changed my taste in music
One of the best shows I’ve ever been to was a triple billing of them, Boris, and Sleep
Let me tell you of the days...of high adventure.
Enjoying Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell because it dares to ask the question: “What if wizards were petty, scheming academics?”
Legion of Doom ahh endorsement list
Large gold ring with chased decoration on the hoop, set with an amethyst engraved with Cupid riding on a lion. The hoop is hollow, with a D-shaped cross-section; it expands evenly towards the shoulders. The large oval setting is surrounded by a border with dog-tooth ornament. The hoop is decorated with chased ornament in the form of pointed, heavily-veined leaves and small circles made with a ring-ended punch. The gem is a somewhat pale mauve amethyst with a convex surface, engraved with a leaping lion ridden by a Cupid who brandishes a whip. Traces of the sulphur backing can be seen through the translucent stone. There is no evidence of wear on the ring. The gem is Severan in date. There is no close parallel for the leaf pattern on this ring, except on the other rings in the Thetford hoard.
Just because I can now *see* such vibrant colors and details, here's a chonky Romano-British gold ring with an engraved amethyst depicting Cupid riding a lion. There is no ancient parallel for the leaf decoration on the ring. 🏺 1/
