I‘ll update this when I figure out what to use this social network for, which turns out to be #fcunion, Buffalo Sabres doomerism, transport/AvGeekery, and watching the world go to hell in a hand basket.

They are taking preparations for today’s Great Shakeout drill a little too far, IMO.

We can talk about unserious ownership and underqualified management, and that’s not incorrect, but the Occam’s razor principle increasingly points to the Sabres being the subject of a powerful supernatural curse.
Lindy Ruff told media in Boston this morning that Josh Norris will miss a significant amount of time with his upper-body injury. It’s a crushing blow for him and for the Sabres who were banking on him to be the 1C.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

Dearest Martha,
The National Guard stand solemn watch at the Krispy Kreme tonight. I cannot tell if they defend the people from the donuts, or the donuts from the people. Powdered sugar hangs in the air like cannon smoke. Jensen took a hot coffee to the face, he may never recover.
Yours in glaze,

Quite a welcome wagon gift for the new arrival.
A foul by the turf monster in Vancouver, but not by any St. Louis player. No way that's a penalty.

The only not-real people allowed to be reported about as if they’re real people — it’s the law, they teach it in J school — are the Muppets
also: this is an insane way for an outlet to describe an account of ai images that is not a human person. who is “her?”

It's become clear that this administration is just a protracted war on anybody who's read a book without pictures in it. It's a miracle we're all still getting up and going to work every morning. The psychological drain is the point, and I'm increasingly grateful to the people who are still decent.

All I read is that AI will grow quicker than we can imagine, but the “Dead Internet Theory” seems to be moving far quicker.
it's fucking insanely bad that google puts a bunch of shit you can't trust up at the top of the search results and you have to scroll down like 4 times to find an actual reputable website. sundar pichai turn your location on

There’s always tariffs in the banana stand
DEAN: What's the tariff on bananas?
LUTNICK: Generally 10%
DEAN: Walmart has already increased the cost of bananas by 8%
LUTNICK: If you build in America, there is no tariff
DEAN: We cannot build bananas in America
