friend shared this, TLDR if you're fortunate enough to have any retirement invested and it's in a previously not crazy index fund, a lot of your investment is now in the AI tech bubble. I just reallocated to options less tied up in it

p.s. this is not investment advice, I'm not a certified anything

stop throwing away ceramic plates after each meal! that's incredibly wasteful. if you run water over them they can be used several more times

Atari Warlords for local multiplayer, ideally with proper dial ("paddle") controllers

first time I taught middle school kids I brought in old consoles, none of the once popular games they seemed to care for beyond recognizing characters they still see. but they played warlords until they had to go
Is there a video game you loved as a kid that you think gamers should try today?

remember when until recently federal agent was the go to career on TV shows to signal somebody was extra professional and qualified as opposed to being untrained criminals who can barely pass a middle school level of fitness or basic competence exam rushed out to kidnap people and provoke a response
a new genre of photo in the last year is federal agents working for ICE pointing guns directly at photographers

every single week they're throwing this guy a special oval office love-in that appears to be the presidential equivalent of letting your dog scarf an entire big mac and fries before that last trip to the vet
Pirro: "Mr President, there is in this room a group of people who love you, who believe in you, and who are so proud to be in this Oval Office and to be part of this amazing day because you have changed the course of America."

I appreciate y'all hanging out at the water cooler of bsky where we crack jokes about the smoke filling our office, as the burning ceiling crashes through the floor near us, accepting we're too high in the building to get out. beats the gaslighting vibe of other sites insisting everything seems fine

"you may not realize that I'm a bit of a connoisseur when it comes to big budget blockbuster movies with action stars. I've probably seen several of the most watched and recognized sci-fi movies ever made, which makes me kind of a nerd, I guess. siskel and ebert did thumbs, I say great or not great"
My favorite part is she said he didn't read books or watch movies and his NO! NO! NO, NO NO NO! NOOOO! response wasn't about books, because he can't read, he just went to some movie Twitter account and gave 3 word essays on such important films like Edge of Tomorrow and Fifth Element.
Wow, Joyce Carol Oates really drove a needle DEEP into Elon Musk's mind with that tweet about how uncultured he is lmfaooo

when I was in undergrad still figuring out dating, I asked my smart friend Staci why movies seemed like such a common date when it's 90 minutes of not talking to each other. she said on the way out if she asks a guy his thoughts and he can only say he liked it or it's great he's got nothing in there
Joyce Carol Oates owned Elon so hard he's spent the last day posting about movies he hasn't seen in 15 years

now now everyone, I say, all of us have completely given up on most people in power, we merely disagree on where we draw the line for how few of them there's any hope at all of ever doing anything about, as I'm promptly murdered by people who have given up on slightly fewer or slightly more than me

thinking about becoming a political philosopher by advancing a new theory of government in which everything isn't determined by a mix of people who have mostly been incapable of doing literally any job for decades or otherwise are outright criminals hardest part is needing a cool latin word for this
