I'm so glad that we have LLMs to make computers more expensive for the first time since they were invented while also taking my job and making everyone illiterate

Incidentally, f**k these “bet on sports to make them interesting” commercials. SPORTS ARE ALREADY INTERESTING. Absolutely f**k these people for trying to convince a whole generation that they need to cultivate a gambling addiction in order to enjoy sports. Do not believe them.

PRIMETIME discourse is so interesting because so many people seem to feel like the film is muddled or confusing and I felt it was clearly telling us the post 9/11 world made Americans feel out of control so we clung to ways to feel safe in a world that felt more dangerous by manipulating our every fear (valid or not) and giving ourselves permission to exploit and be exploited

Calling someone a moron for sharing a reasonable take while simultaneously thinking that OoT used auto-jump due to N64 limitations is truly astounding. Smooth brain stuff here.
This proves that Arlo is a moron lmao. The auto-jump may have been born of console limitations but it was used in such a way that games were designed around it, more specifically puzzle design in dungeons. It's not just some mindless feature. It's implementation was intentional

If the Carolina Hurricanes score 4 goals in the 3rd period to tie the game I’ll get a stormy tattoo. Please, for the love god.

Brett Howden knew he was offside originally, but then he changed his story later on when asked about it.
NO GOAL 🚫 Mark Stone’s goal is ruled offside after a coach’s challenge.

On Steve Simmons... I have no issue with the premise of his question, asked cordially. For example: "Based on my research, it seems John Chayka's a polarizing figure around the league. In fact, most of the people I talked to were surprised by your decision to hire him. Can you elaborate on your due diligence process and share your perspective on the incidents which led to punishment from the league?" I mean, that's a heater as written. I have an issue with calling John Chayka a liar and a con man, as corroborated by 19 of 20 anonymous sources. I have an issue with an experienced journalist hijacking the press conference, turning it into a spectacle about an uncommonly explosive question. Especially in this setting. I think it's a disservice to the staff and the fan base. The biggest issue I have, though, is that he directed the question to Keith Pelley. John Chayka is sitting right next to him. If you want to call the guy a liar and a con man, at least have the courtesy to say it to him directly. The problem is... it's a lot like when a Karen starts an argument with an employee at a Best Buy. Karen has no obligation to conduct herself in any particular way - she's free to fly off the handle. The employees are wearing a uniform. There are customers in the store. They don't have the same luxury. It's a gutless exchange. Par for the course from Steve Simmons.

I feel like younger people don't realize that the internet wasn't always optimized solely to make you as angry and miserable as possible, and people are having a lot of nostalgia for 2000s internet vibes now because it wasn't like that back then

If you are worried your friends and family would ostracize you if they knew what you did for work, maybe you shouldn't do that sort of work?
BREAKING: ICE officials are reportedly worried that, if Congress requires ICE agents to unmask and wear identification, 75% of the agents will quit rather than be ostracised for the rest of their lives by family, friends, employers, and society.

Hamnet is a devastatingly beautiful meditation on grief, love, and art born from pain. Chloé Zhao’s most intimate and haunting work—visually stunning, emotionally overwhelming, and scored by Max Richter to completely wreck you. Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal are phenomenal.

Sorry, but "I don't think people like you should have any rights and I would prefer it if you didn't even exist. Debate me." is not a call for a calm, rational, reasoned debate.

Nothing will happen because Republicans like guns more than children, and they like unborn children more than actual children. They'll offer meaningless prayers, blame everything except guns, and find another logo to get irrationally mad about until people move on.

GOP in 2010: Stop the socialists! GOP in 2025: The conveniences of modern life are overrated. We will reorder the economy and redistribute wealth. Your losses are a small sacrifice for the glory of the nation!

I don’t care how much you believe you ‘revere’ or love an actor- if you use tech to put words in their mouths or move them at your whim, things they never said or did, you were never actually a fan. You wanted to own them. They never ‘belonged’ to you. Grotesque.

#BREAKING McDavid scores in OT. Like the '72 Summit Series, Canada has defeated the Russians on their own soil.

Obviously Quebec should get Louisiana. But how we divvy up the rest of the states is an open question
