Prediction: in the wake of the AI crash, there’s going to be a kind of neo-punk aesthetic moment in which authenticity and the human scale are valued and sought out. A good time to be lo-fi, artisanal, or independent.

And by "being good" I mean, "did not have a breakdown from overstimulation". Thank you noise cancelling earbuds

A damp and dark mechanical room with moss growing on the floor. In the shadows between pieces of mechanical equipment, a large white bust sculpture looks out

A close up of the bust reveals a very serious looking bald man in a suit. The face is damaged but it appears to be the former leader of the Soviet Union, Vladimir Lenin.

You never know what you're going to find hidden in the old mechanical rooms of an ivy league university. Example: a large defaced bust of Vladimir Lenin

AI hallucinated this clue

More like Gavin Ew-som 🤢

Dreary half melted New England snowscape, looking out over a back deck into the woods. The first flakes of an oncoming blizzard have started to fall.

From the halftime show, Bad Bunny holding a football towards the camera. He's surrounded by a crowd of people all wearing white. Flags of the Americas and fireworks in the background. Text on the football reads "Together we are America".

The football said "TOGETHER WE ARE AMERICA"

Two CBP Agents Identified in Alex Pretti Shooting The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raym...

NEW: This isn't about "training." The two agents who murdered Alex Pretti - Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez - have been with Border Patrol for 8 and 12 years respectively. You can't reform CBP. Abolish ICE/CBP. www.propublica.org/article/alex...

The past few days have confirmed for me something I’ve long believed: the American political system is terminally fucked, but the American people are not.

Most Americans want to live in a democracy in which everyone has a decent life—the fascists in this regime represent a dying minority.

Give the money to social services, to public libraries, to affordable housing, to health care for all. The money's there. The money's always been there. Let's do it.

BTW when I say abolish ICE, I mean abolish it entirely and replace it with exactly nothing. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. That's it.

Family of Alex Pretti, who was shot dead in Minneapolis today, releases statement:

"The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump's murdering and cowardly ICE thugs."

Minnesota is the best of us.

Screenshot of a Google notification. The headline reads "Orange man arrested" The details describe the arrest of a local resident from the town of Orange, "Keith Trapasso arrested for threatening ambulance workers after parking incident"

Google got my hopes up with that headline

My 2026 affirmation.

As we enter the timeless stretch between Xmas and the new year, a period in which days blur and hours linger, just remember: it could happen at any time and maybe we’ll ring in the new year with extreme cheer.
