As a new year’s resolution tell your parents there is a lower-fee option to subscribe to just the NYT games and recipes sections if they’re having trouble completely cutting off their funding to serif-plated fascist propaganda
Trump’s approval is under 40% so naturally the New York Times found a whole bunch of people that support or defend what he’s doing, including a Kamala 2024 voter who regrets his vote lmao

This is almost exactly like Blockbuster - the omnipresent boring thing that displaced the actual thing with character (small video store, token, respectively) took on a sheen of nostalgia because of all of the life it was present for but is not actually good or worth mourning in and of itself
the amount of sad you should feel about the retirement of the NYC Metrocard should be like “mildly wistful pre-nostalgia” — more than that, IMO, is kinda silly

Wealth should have a cap. Once you've made, I dunno, $100 million dollars, that's it. Congratulations, you won Capitalism. You benefitted from society so much, you'll never have a material worry again. We'll name a dog park after you. Everything past that goes into a "social benefit fund."
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

I think it’s kind of funny that both “wi-fi” and “podcast” are only puns to people old enough to remember hi-fi systems and iPods; they’re like linguistic deleted quote tweets

Buttons are back. Knobs are back. Dumb devices are back. Own-it-forever software is back. Print is back. Personal websites and chronological feeds are back. Touching grass is back. People keep saying 2015, but it’s not far enough. The entire 2010s were a mistake. We must retvrn to… 2009.
Amazingly, reaction times using screens while driving are worse than being drunk or high—no wonder 90 percent of drivers hate using touchscreens in cars. Finally the auto industry is coming to its senses.
