Great work from Ed, as usual! Wasn't super familiar with Cosmism but it's very fascinating as a foil to the apocalyptic futurism of our wonderful oligarchs
Wrote about digitally cloning your loved ones, immortality, death cults, and Silicon Valley. Plus: an old essay on Russian Cosmism and its perversion by today’s accelerationists.

I've been using Ian's fast knot for over a decade now and this is the first I'm hearing of the secure knot. Stoked to add another option to the arsenal! Ian's the shoelace GOAT!
not using ian's secure shoelace knot is a sign of a weak moral character, poor constitution, and an unserious attitude towards quality workmanship

Losing my fucking mind. Are federal agents wearing nothing more than t-shirts and jeans (no POLICE vests, no badges, nothing) allowed to open carry handguns in DC now? Are all police expected to recognize each other or something?

Movie brain! All of these people have movie brain and are desperate to prove they are, in fact, the main character and everyone else isn’t, because being a normal person means they have to address the problems of a normal person that they’re clearly running from.

man you've really just gotta hate America and its citizens to cut back on the damn National Park Service. you've gotta have no interest in what makes our country unique and no desire for people to experience it
Bright passionate people who wanted to dedicate their lives to public service were fired in a mass email over the holiday weekend.
This has absolutely nothing to do with efficiency, fraud, waste, or abuse. And your life will be worse because of it.

New Make Some Noise let's goooooooo
TONIGHT! angela giarratana and corin wells's first ever make some noise; america's sweetie pie jeremy culhane gives us way too much tongue action; "two high school friends who's M.A.S.H.'s came true"; and "name that legally distinct IP." you can't handle all this show! 🫰

Just in time for my move thanks Tim!
Ever notice when you go to check out for tickets to a Vikings game or a Taylor Swift concert, the price you pay is so much higher than advertised?
Mysterious fees from online sellers continue to make tickets more expensive.
Starting January 1, we’re banning those junk fees.

There should never be any neutral-site college football games except for the annual national championship in the Rose Bowl
my feeling watching the pregame scenes this weekend is that nothing before the semifinals should ever be at a bowl site again, and probably it should just be the national championship game. bowls, we appreciate your service and your watch has ended

After last night, some sections of college football want Indiana to apologize for crashing the Playoff party. If they want to sustain the things that made them successful this fall, the Hoosiers should do the exact opposite. Insider: www.indystar.com/story/sports... #iufb
IU football crashed the CFP party — and shouldn't have to apologize for any of it.
Apologize for nothing. That’s Indiana football’s identity now. Embracing it will win you games.

Maybe Notre Dame fans needed this. After all it’s been a tough few days for them since the Yankees didn’t re-sign Juan Soto.
