Good one. I have big proclivity for throughput maxing and revenge bedtime procrastination, need to slow down and feel

It’s never been more clear that Donald Trump has completely lost his mind.

It’s our responsibility to call on Congress, the military, and any sane individual in this administration to stop him from committing war crimes against the Iranian people.

Paragon’s Graphite isn’t magical, it’s just malware. It still needs a zero day exploit to compromise a phone with updated software. The best thing you can do to protect yourself against Graphite is keep your phone up to date and enable Lockdown Mode on iPhone or Advanced Protection Mode on Android.

Never give in to ransom

Trump is alone. That’s different from the United States being alone.

May I be so bold as to address myself to America’s allies and friends? I have some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trump-alone

Holy hell this is good (and seems like a ton of solo work for just one year)

Thanks for sharing

Brace Yourself for the AI Bubble Are we watching an AI revolution, or a slow-motion economic disaster?

Notice a ton of commercials pushing AI during last night's Super Bowl?

Here's why these companies are so eager to get you to adopt it in your life (hint: it's a bubble). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wxBHxpMFXA

Ahh today I learned

I take it as a good sign that I've blocked whoever you're quoting here, lol

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

I agree and see it like (violent video games : violence). There may be some statistically meaningful correlation, but the first doesn't logically result in the other and isn't inherently problematic

I can’t stress this enough. The state of 4th Amendment law is that the cops can’t force you to type in a passcode but they can force you to swipe your finger or present your face. Never stop using passcodes/passwords to unlock your devices. And consider additional code to unlock Signal.

Person: say, i am alive. Computer: I am alive. Person: oh my god.

Wow, this is fascinating and so cool. Thanks for sharing!

Everything is engagement bait

No, this post is Engement Bait ™️.

Being a good friend is engagement bait

If you’re storing any beer or soda in the garage (and I’m not talking the garage fridge) that needs to be moved. Cans could burst with the prolonged cold stretch.

And double check you don’t have a random can of soda in your car either. That mess is a colossal pain to clean up.

A screenshot of Lala and Po from the teletubbies. The screenshot is clearly taken from someone's phone, as the borders of the tv can be seen, as well as glimpses into the apartment behind them. Po is in bed wrapped up in a blanket. The text below them reads "I know you were high at my mother-in-laws funeral..."

More screenshots from the Teletubbies. Lala seems to be upset with a terrified Po. the text below reads "Did you kill the dog? Why would you do that?!"

A third screenshot from the Teletubbies, this time the same scene as before. Po is wearing an apron while Lala seems to still be upset at him. The text below reads "You're nothing but a failure of a man."

In the 2010s, the Icelandic tv station Channel 2 accidentally added subtitles from a gritty crime drama to an episode of Teletubbies.

I have translated some of the highlights

The vibes were immaculate 🌊

Sometimes home is where the heart is, however illogical. I wouldn't blame a given individual for America's situation based on a vote they made or didn't make

Amd maybe reframe it as actually sticking around to hopefully deal with the problem vs just running away from it for the foreseeable future.

I feel like most people that way don't understand the machine and single party system. So they haven't really awoken to that stuff

I am begging you. Please learn about stress/discomfort tolerance. Practice raising it. You need this to survive. If someone online can ruin your day with a throwaway comment, you desperately need to understand discomfort tolerance and consciously, systematically build that shit. Also! Stress tolerance is such an important skill that having a learning disability in that area is a major symptom of a whole lot of other disabilities/mental illnesses! Struggling with it is a huge part of life! It sucks! Am I saying everyone with misophonia needs to listen to chewing noises all day? No. But you need to find ways to tolerate it enough that you don't treat others like shit if they make a mouth noise near you. No, you don't have to read the fic with your trigger tags. But you do need to be able to handle scrolling past the tags without being upset. It is hard! But not having it also makes you so so so easy to manipulate. That grandma is racist AF because her mom raised her to be uncomfortable around black people and she never fought that discomfort. Trans people make so many cis people uncomfortable and that discomfort turns into bigotry real fast. Letting your discomfort dictate your actions and beliefs about things is a great way to become a terrible person. Learn. Discomfort. Tolerance.

Important shit that I’m still trying to learn.

Alternative: optimizing to annoy you specifically 😎

Optimizing for not being needlessly salty I suppose

My partner @jasoncapsaicin.bsky.social made a step by step guide on how to break up ice in your neighborhood in Minnesota. Enjoy!

Yep, the Overton window is now on a spectrum from openly killing innocents to secretly killing innocents and acting powerless about it.
