This code is still available by the way. (First person to reply to me got a code from someone else and the only other reply came from an account that just RTs crypto scams.)

Would have offered this to someone I know, but none of you responded so it’s going to *checks notes* Nadsley

You only have yourselves to blame for letting a bluesky invite go to a Philadelphia sports fan

Every journalist who is still using this site is pathetic (FYI mastodon.social/@philcrone)
The actual state-sponsored US media organization doesn't have the same marking as NPR. It's just so transparent what Elon is doing here and it's garbage

“The government is secretly designing anti-superhuman weapons” is always treated like a damning revelation when like, holy shit, that would be the most justifiable use of taxpayer dollars ever considering the damage they cause. That shit would poll at 90%
I feel like so many movies have totally bizarre moral lessons -Marvel thinks it is bad for governments to do modest oversight for the activities of random superheroes with godlike powers -Jurassic Park movies are infinitely more concerned about dinosaur rights than human lives

Yglesias blocked me but if someone could kindly tell him that a basis point is not a percentage point but 1/100 of a percentage point and the reason people use it is to talk about small movements without having to use decimals, I would be grateful.

I obtained surveillance footage of the self-driving Tesla that abruptly stopped on the Bay Bridge, resulting in an eight-vehicle crash that injured 9 people including a 2 yr old child just hours after Musk announced the self-driving feature. Full story: theintercept.com/2023/01/10/…

As I explained above, pro-Bolsonaro insurrectionists CHEERED when soldiers arrived at the scene, believing they were about to join their side… … but were soon arrested instead. See images here:

people will post like this and then you look up what their job is and it’s “ceo”. thank you for taking the risk and scheduling those meetings king. damn that was a bold internal email
colleges prioritized making people feel perfectly safe over everything else and produced a generation afraid to fail, and thus afraid to take risk, and thus on pace to accomplish extremely little

Really disappointed that Cameron didn’t make the cast of The Way of Water learn Na’vi and use subtitles for the majority of the movie.

White people with dreadlocks were seriously underrepresented in film before The Way of Water.
