Harris campaigns in Wisconsin with Skeletor, Sen. Holden Bloodfeast, Reanimated Henry Kissinger, Ming the Merciless and the Cheneys to court moderates

I open the closet marked "In Case of Emergency" to find two water guns, one pre-loaded with holy water and the other with Dip from Who Framed Roger Rabbit. There's also a piece of kryptonite in case of Supes, and a crucifix in case of Peter Thiel. The box of table salt is there to make circles with, and just in case, there's silver ammunition and a sharp wooden stake. I know it's a long shot, but the last shelf has a branch of a tree from Burnam Wood, in case of Macbeth.

A law against whatever Peter Thiel is doing this time

Indiana and Alabama has essentially banned online porn and Florida follows on January 1.

To sum up the political position in these states:

Automatic rifles… NOT dangerous.

Pornography… VERY dangerous.

Every time I see a news item about a Trump trial it's like "Jack Smith filed a brief proving that Trump did more crimes than anyone since 'Crimes Georg' in 1921, as Judge Cannon delays the trial another three years"

"For legal reasons the Torment Nexus will not be made available to our valued customers in the European Union. We apologise for the inconvenience." ;)

He’s a toxic person and always has been.

Some people can’t (or refuse to) see it.

Others are paid not to.

Still others are •also• toxic themselves.

I've been playing #Warhammer40000RogueTrader and man, the injury system in this game is ass (mostly because the characters always skitter about like chickens with their heads cut off and immediately set off traps that they themselves just discovered)

Also, the fact that Hit Points are called Wounds (when I think of wounds as missing hit points) is very strange

Musk is following through on his pledge to “deprecate” Twitter’s block feature. 𝕏 is reportedly about to make your posts visible to users you’ve blocked. (I wonder if they can reply too?) It’s sure to lead to more harassment. https://www.theverge.com/2024/9/23/24252438/x-blocked-users-view-public-posts

Today on CNN, the president of the think tank that employs the guy who offered a $5,000 bounty for video of black immigrants eating pets discusses whether the Democrats are using dangerous rhetoric.

Billionaires on social media thoroughly puncture the American presumption that billionaires got that way by being super-intelligent or extremely insightful, as opposed to “smart enough and in the right place at the right time.” This guy’s a fortunate dumbass with zones of competence.

Here’s the thing though: Trump voters (1) won’t believe any quantum of evidence (2) don’t care whether it’s true or not (3) will increase their support of him because anyone “attacked by the media” is inherently good (4) don’t think anything he said is particularly bad.

you can determine how bad a political scandal is by looking at its permalink slug

"The reason we don’t see exploding battery attacks more often is not because it’s technically hard, it’s because the erosion of public trust in everyday things isn’t worth it."

Reading through Mozillas jobs page: "Senior Staff Machine Learning Engineer, Gen AI", "Senior Staff Software Engineer, Ads", "Program Manager, AI 360", "Principal Product Manager, Generative AI","Sr Staff Fullstack Engineer, Anonym", "Senior Manager, Sales (Anonym)"

I see they have fully pointed the ship towards a future of AI and Ads.

This quote from the Heritage Foundation is really important because KOSA sucks and it has strong bipartisan support. So call your Democratic representatives and tell them that KOSA will be used to block access to essential information about abortion.

what a deal?

what if sisyphus got a coin every time he rolled the boulder up the hill and then he could spend his coins in the shop to level up his pushing ability but each time he leveled up the boulder also got heavier so the challenge remains the same despite feeling like progression has been made. and what if he was able to unlock sisyphus minions that could roll the boulder up the hill while he was away. also every time he starts a new roll an ad plays. and also he can choose to watch an ad every time he drops the boulder to receive 2x coins for that round. and also you can buy fun skins for the boulder through microtransactions
