A woman says "Do you expect a country..."

[continued] "that has brought prosperity to no one to bring it to you?"

I've been running gdcparties.com for a few years now. Some shitty company BlueberryAI decided they'd just take all the source code for the work I've done and reskin it, advertising it as their own. Jokes on them...it was still linked to my events spreadsheet, and now their website looks like this 😉

kevinrkirk 2d @ Threads Why are we bothering with the Strait of Hormuz when we could simply do this? Explain it to me like l'm 5. (Drawing of chopping of part of land) suahuatica 2d MOUNTAIN HARD AND BIG, WATER NO UP. MANY MANY DIG DIG.

Happy Friday. Don’t skip school.

Today I Will Look The Burrito Man In The Eye and other stories of manifesting success

Pretty difficult to refute a single thing in this perfect assessment of where the f**k we are, from @iandunt.bsky.social:

A very tiny brown bunny sitting on the sidewalk curled up into a little ball and underneath it are the words “I am at my limit.“

It me

do you buy anything that contains plastic

how it feels taking public transit rn

A brown penguin chick of some kind. It looks very much like a man in a suit. It is bedraggled and miserable

Made it to Friday but at what cost

I said this before, but the reason I know Platner is just cosplaying as working at his oyster farm is that he's perpetually sunburned and wears appropriate clothing for being on the water in exactly none of his farm's insta photos, while his employees wear sleeves and big hats like normal people.

“MAGA’s fundamental shared quality is a total lack of theory of mind for other people” is a theory that keeps getting validated by reality - look at almost every decision they’ve made in the war with Iran, and how they seem constantly surprised by the unanticipated actions of other parties.

IRGC Destroys Second US THAAD System in Gulf, Wipes Out UAE Radar and $1.1 Billion Qatar Early Warning Shield — Iran Declares Missile Dominance - Defence Security Asia IRGC precision strikes reportedly destroy a second US THAAD system, its UAE radar, and Qatar’s $1.1 billion early warning system, exposing fractures in America’s Gulf missile defence architecture and ...

so Iran has apparently knocked out and destroyed / disabled to some extent two U.S. THAAD batteries

This is a massive deal. Aside from the expense, this is not a weapon system we just have a ton of lying around. You don't replace these easily.

Markwayne Mullin Reportedly Fingered Nostrils of Colleagues and Their Spouses During Visit to Israel

what fresh hell

Join my new predictive market platform Douchero to place a wager on which one of these guys gets caught with CSAM first.

Crazy story: A bank analyst published a report showing Kalshi users lose money even faster than sports gamblers, so Kalshi first tried to pressure the data provider to change their data and then accused them and the analyst of conspiring to extort them when that doesn’t work.

fantastic

when you win a small concession you just get to keep yelling btw. one time a local official said to me "you people are never happy" and like: correct! it is not our job to be happy with compromise! it's our job to be annoying forever actually

That clip of Timothee Chalamet being like “no one watches the opera or ballet” is wild and I am dying over every ballet and opera acct (correctly) being like “we’ve been here for hundreds of years before you and we’ll be here for hundreds of years after you” lmao

You can now visualize how a color palette distributes across OKHsv, OKHsl, OKLCh and CIELab, and compare 6 distance metrics side by side. Zero dependencies, raw WebGL2.

Took me 3 years to make something I wasn't too embarrassed to share 🙃

Can confirm, every Signal chat in town either said nothing or made one snide comment and then immediately got back to work

Target's new CEO says fresh eyes and respecting core values will help him regain customer trust

AP: Why hasn't Target taken a stronger stand against ICE? I know businesses have to legally allow agents in stores. FIDDELKE: When I think about navigating the start of the year here, especially in our hometown in Minneapolis, the thing that we have kept front and center every single day is the safety of our team. And so the safety of the team and the safety of our guests has been our North Star for decision making, and that's guided every decision that we've made.

Keep the words “safe” and “North Star” out of your mouth, you appalling little coward. You’re the CEO of Greg Bovino’s bathroom now. Nothing more. No media training will change that.

They are torturing and killing people in our concentration camps, and I wish more people were actively bothered by that

this is so unhinged on so many levels

there were hundreds of veterans on the hill today for a joint hearing this morning and some other things going on...Sheehy should probably stay inside tonight

senator sheehy should be fired and arrested. what a fucking traitor.

just a randomly prediction, i think people are sleeping on the virality and durability of the "tim sheehy breaks the marine protester's arm" story in the coming days and weeks

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

Roses are red
Tulips are bright

coincidence? you decide
