So here's a tip: turn off all notifications for social media. I'm not kidding. Stop the cycle where it starts. Only go onto Bluesky and Discord or whatever when you want to. Don't let the app tell you when to look at it. You're the boss of it, not the other way round

Am I really supposed to believe that the people who rage-cried for a whole year about a trans woman drinking a Bud Light and get mad when restaurants try to change their logo are going to be totally cool with actual war disruption?
that's cool, man, but have you tried the taste of a refreshing matcha latte

Mockler: It's honestly humiliating that other countries are treating our president like a child, like a baby. It's like if I created a peace prize and I gave it to myself. I'm like, I'm just going to keep this medal on all night. Our president is an actual child

I love the insistent terminology that these hatchback are "crossovers."
But if that's what it takes to get people to buy non-SUV/trucks then so be it

The new Bolt, much like its predecessor, is a down-to-earth car that’s meant for the masses, so you’re not going to find a lot of customization in the online configurator. But it's a great deal.

When even Politico starts to notice that all Republicans are twelve...
this is pretty remarkably sharp-elbowed and contemptuous for a politico piece
The President Who Never Grew Up
Instead of focusing on governing, Trump spends his days chasing entertainment, attention and renovation projects that reflect a presidency stuck in adolescence.

Pretty sure the reason we don’t have a Democratic Party “interested in an anti-war movement” is that being “anti-war” is not actually a meaningful or useful principle, as seen by virtually all the people who self-define as such being adamantly in favour of wars conducted by states like Russia

I'm sorry does he think efficiency laws are what ended the station wagon body style? Station wagons held on through the 90s. They were still making the Dodge Magnum in 2008
Sean Duffy on slashing fuel economy standards: "This rule will actually allow you to bring back the 1970s station wagon. Maybe a little wood paneling on the side. We can bring back choice to consumers."

Seriously though why do so many allegedly smart people think that when it comes to making predictions, we should trust gamblers?
Also love the way this bookie is trying to pretend that what he does is just like a stock broker or a bonds trader

Apparently a lot of people need to re-watch "Stand By Me" or "Now & Then" or something so they can re-learn the lesson that you can't become twelve again

It feels like a large part of both culture and politics these days is people wondering “why don’t I feel the way I did when I was 12”

I remember there was an XKCD cartoon maybe a decade ago where a character says "we're grownups now, and we get to decide what that means"
But clearly a lot of people haven't processed that they're the grownups, and like...I really don't get why.

Part of what I think of as growing up, though maybe that’s not a fair framing, is accepting that you aren’t particularly special. Not only can a robot do what I can do, so could another person, actually many many other people, and worse!

That's because the show is attempting verisimilitude
