I feel like every day I see insane shit like this and it just doesn't stop.
Here’s video of federal agents doing a drive by pepper spraying that hit a father and his one-year old on Saturday when the Feds were hitting Little Village and Cicero

TIL some people suffer from neurological side effects after taking... MiraLAX???

Not sure if this is a gut-brain interaction or PEG itself, but it's quite interesting!

A lot of people are freaking out over this 50 year mortgage thing but:

1) 30 years is *also* a shit ton of time
2) many people will refinance their homes to change rates and terms
3) You do not have to pay the minimum when you do have more money
4) people cannot afford any homes right now!

If the shoe was on the other foot, the media would have daily updates and discussions about it for the next six months.
NEW: @govpritzker.illinois.gov's office says 3 masked ICE agents stopped & questioned an IL Department of Transportation employee working in Park Ridge about his immigration status & whether he had traveled to New York and his awareness of NYC Mayor-elect @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social before leaving.

Things are still bad, but tonight gaves us just a little bit of the hope we deserve.

Is someone going to edit Tiny Dancer on top of this
Mamdani was unaware Dick Cheney had died when I asked just now:

looking at all these replies and quotes, i can't figure out why the developers of this app would be interested in some kind of anti-toxicity/anti-dogpiling features... no clue!
"Torment Nexus" comes from this tweet and is often used now to describe the kind of negative experiences you can have with social networks, like getting dogpiled or harassed or being pushed into conflict

I've been trying hard to keep up with the new JJK manga and boy do I just not care for the story. The Boruto Effect is in full swing here!

I think the discourse around this has been the most mind meltingly dumb shit I've ever seen on this website. And that's saying a lot considering what is considered "site drama" here.

The fact that people don't seem to know what the phrase "is often used" means is a big signal that we're cooked.

Mamdani is running for mayor, not governor, so Cuomo could just return to the suburbs. That's not why he says this.

This is basically an admission that he'd be so thoroughly embarrassed by getting his ass whooped *again* that he'd have to go into self-exile from the whole God damn state.
My closing pitch to voters? “I will only live in this awful place if I rule over it”

Cuomo should drop out for many reasons, but this absolute garbage is high up there.
Andrew Cuomo’s campaign just posted — and quickly deleted — this AI-generated ad depicting “criminals for Zohran Mamdani.”

Features a Black man in a keffiyeh shoplifting, an abuser, a trespasser, a trafficker, a drug dealer, and a drunk driver all declaring support for Mamdani.

This whole saga has been a series of rakes, both for Platner and everyone giving him the benefit of the doubt.

I could believe, though question, getting this tattooed while drunk in Croatia and being ignorant to meaning. That disappears once people learn you've referred to it by name in the past.

spicy opinion: you can tell software engineering isn't _real_ engineering because nobody makes animated "explaining the disaster" videos about shit like this the way they do the FIU pedestrian bridge collapse or the Hyatt Regency walkway collapse

where's our USCSB youtube account

Bro I don't even know why Cuomo even showed up, he just gets dog walked by Mamdani every single time.

He definitely has a humiliation kink or something because there is no reason for him to subject us to this in such a public forum.
If you think the problem in this city is that my rent is too low, vote for Andrew Cuomo.

If you know the problem in this city is that your rent is too high, vote for me.

While I don't entirely agree with this assessment, it's in the ballpark.

- AI is definitely a technological advancement, but the utility is often oversold

- The real danger isn't the AI itself but the human evil it enables at scale

- Regulation is necessary but ultimately will be ineffective

It's so hard to watch this video because a lot of these go fuckin HARD and I have very little self control.

I'm gonna be honest, this is an absolute no-brainer and I have no idea why they didn't do it five years ago. Like, QVC has been around for 40 years.
Twitch is launching a native in-stream live shopping that will allow users to purchase a product without ever leaving Twitch.

The first brand partner for this will be Elf Cosmetics.

There are many talented artists who are just unaware of the power of mystery. Not everything needs to be explained, not all questions require answers.

We live in a horribly beautiful world surrounded by things we will never know or understand, and it's fuckin awesome. Let your work mirror that!

As Stranger Things Season 5 approaches, Ross Duffer revealed that the two-hour finale will finally reveal what the Upside Down is, saying, “Every season would be like, ‘Should we talk about it?’ And we’d go, ‘No, let’s wait.’ And then finally, we’re like, ‘Well, we have to now!’” bit.ly/4qd9Ize

Whenever I tab back to Claude and I see a message log of (paraphrasing) "didn't think work just before?" and "oh God I thought I already tested this scenario," I feel a sense of empathy and camaraderie.

Like, I've been there my guy, don't sweat it.

I think the best thing to come out of Columbus Day was that one episode of the Sopranos.
