Americans want to watch charismatic people solve moderately difficult problems on a weekly basis. That’s it. And a group of fomo execs and techbros who don’t watch TV drove one of the most profitable industries in the US off a cliff rather than accept that.
Look what happenes when a TV show releases every year, with more than 8 episodes a season.

Well into the season of life where I don’t keep up with pop culture, and it’s great.

You don’t need to get annoyed that The Kids like different stuff. Are Addison Rae and Tate McRae different people? Who cares! There’s jazz to listen to and you have plantar fasciitis.

Head to a protest today. I can almost promise you will feel less hopeless. That's exactly what they don't want. There are more of us than there are of them.

What a lovely message from @bookshop.org. Glad to see them growing and growing. We CAN claim back what has been taken from us by these monstrous corporations, and it starts with things like this. Grab some books these next couple days!

Get really into dinosaurs. That's my recommendation for a happier life. Each day, I get news like "Look at this big freak that used roam the Earth!" or "Ya know the big freak you already loved? Fossils show it was even more freakish!" and it's a blessing every time.

All the dire implications notwithstanding it is hilarious how evil this technology is. Billions of dollars spent on this greasy lying stupid thing that was literally built to replace people, and everyone that uses it gets weaker, lazier, dumber, and sadder for having done so. Well done all around.

One of the weirdest things about living in Boston is people just blithely walking thru public parks at night, like they didn’t grow up in the 80s

So let me get this straight, OpenAI is accusing DeepSeek of essentially ignoring copyright and plagiarizing its work…
