Me: My nieces and nephews are amazing people and it’s fun to be around them

X users: You fuckin’ pedo

I think there’s a joke in comparing Rams fans to lost cause adherents, but I can’t make it work

Photos of the Battle of Blair Mountain show Minions wearing West Virginia National Guard uniforms. Crazy stuff.

Companion piece:
“I like it.”

A white, black and brown husky-shepherd mix sitting on wet, brown concrete next to lawn chairs, a fire pit, with a sandy backyard and trees behind. It is raining

What rain?

Sure Juicero was a scam, but it was a scam because they overcharged the MAHA types, and that I can live with.

i'll take the bold (for bluesky) position that working for raytheon or northrup or whatever does not make you an irredeemable person, but palantir is very different because they are making karp's insane worldview the company's official public position, they're explicitly saying you believe this, too

FARA enforcement, Title IX compliance for faculty, and fiduciary duty of board members of publicly traded companies; all stuff already on the books waiting to be enforced and all stuff that is objectively good and will also put a serious dent in the fascism complex

If so, I can’t wait for Narsil, the continental missile defense system. Or Wintermute, the trusty AI!

Is the formula basically “popular character or thing from media + likelihood of confusion loophole to evade copyright”?

Somehow I never noticed John Millius has a script credit, and boy does it show!

Also, why did my parents take me to the theater to see this when I was 11?

They threw around a great salary plus RSUs so a lot of people were willing to make a deal with the Devil

I just had enough privilege to say no here

Being able to turn down a job because the company seems cartoonishly evil is a huge privilege. Turning down Palantir despite desperately needing a job was just a pleasure.

The guys you’ll meet at a rural NW Wi bar during the winter are something else. And by that I mean, usually racist as fuck.

Funny how she’s married to the former Soliciter of Texas (2015 to 2018). It certainly wouldn’t color her argument here

I’m watching Clear and Present Danger just to feel something

That’s what Poggle the Lesser’s fanboys want you to think! All that money does is line the Trade Union and Droid foundries’ pockets. And who do they fund? The Sith!

Sorry to be captain bring-down!

Phillz got sold to a PE firm in ‘25, so the new leadership team is about as venal as it gets

Muttering “back, and to the left” as I rewatch a piss video 40 times

Post from Rob (Ro2R) @Ruleof2Review “Ex-blockbuster employee here. And I mean it with 100% sincerity that the world would be a better place if we shut down all streaming services, re-opened Blockbusters and video stores worldwide, and shoved people back out into the world to find and enjoy their entertainment.”

Ex-Video Visions and Hollywood Video employee here. This person gets it.

Saved me ~$250 a month, and spurred me to get a loan to pay off a credit card because it had hidden fees I didn’t know about

Sure it’s simple stuff, but, as a financial idiot it genuinely helped.

It was shockingly good at helping me build a financial analysis and long term budget after writing a few paragraphs explaining what I was trying to build and what my goals were.

I had to redact my own PII first, but it was still easier than Rocket Money or similar apps.

Spoke with my newspaper publisher wife. She maintains it’s also a business move - papers are looking for any revenue generation, and being paid for your archives is part of that. Dallas Morning News doing this in 2017 was a big change

AI may be accelerating this, but it’s not the only reason

I’m a Botts on the net, and I’m feuding with a lot of things & people, but not BlueSky

So at the risk of maybe overreading this and making an educated guess, I think I can guess what specifically Wyden is talking about.

I think it's about use of AI (LLMs) by FBI to surveil American communications without a warrant

LOS ANGELES: Please help these kitties Kit & Caboodle. Their owner passed away last week, and I've taken it upon myself to find them a loving forever home. They are GOOD BABIES. Can anyone *LA area only* adopt them? I just don't want them to end up in a kill shelter. Share, RT, ask around... thanks!

“Am I purchasing ethically sourced raccoon penis bones” is not something I thought I’d have to ask, but here we are.

Last time this came up I thought “gee I need to order my friends some raccoon penis bones to spice up their Tuesday” and there was a lot of friction to the process.

Nobody ate them though.

The first 30 minutes of The Final
Countdown is just the seamen of the USS Nimitz being competent.

Then they bring out Charles Durning!

Just inject this into my veins.
