Like 5 years ago when I was doing cryptocurrency R&D I had a talk rejected that was titled "You're not Going To Market, You're Going To Jail" and I'm still mad I never got it published.

Adams' attacks on Zohran are gonna continue to be like "He's not gangster enough to protect the city when King Kong attacks" and Cuomo is gonna keep being out of touch in a different but more upsetting way.

My favourite part of Balatro is unlocking Legendary jokers, taking a screenshot, and posting it to Discord with "who TF is this clown?"

It's wild to me that Meta, after helping promote ethnic cleansing in Myanmar, is just going to give up on proactive content moderation and instead whine to the U.S. gov when they inevitably get banned abroad.

If someone used my site to do a genocide I would turn it off but that's just me.

Chandra, the space-based observatory that brings us incredible x-ray images of the most extreme environments in the cosmos, is at risk of cancellation. It’ll be a huge loss to astronomy if the mission ends prematurely for budget reasons. Go to www.savechandra.org to find out how to help #SaveChandra

“I knew this was coming, but I don’t know what to do,” may as well be our national motto at this point.

Print it on our money. Add it to the national anthem. Put it on t-shirts at the Smithsonian gift shops.
