BREAKING NEWS: Donald "Art of the Deal" Trump settled the Ticketmaster-Live Nation antitrust case.

If you love going to concerts, Trump's deal means you'll keep paying a "Ticketmaster Tax."

And artists will keep getting bullied.

It's time to break up Ticketmaster-Live Nation.

I'll add, that it feels like a bunch of people are jumping to conclusions like "see Nate, I told you the Middle East was unsafe."

When an actuality the thing that is unsafe is the American government.

love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region

Agree. Only children are allowed obligatory and/or multiple samples. If you’re a grownup, you get one sample, and only in extraordinary circumstances. No sample for anyone when it’s really backed up. Blessed are those who hear the word and obey it.

Darell Hernaiz walks it off for Team Puerto Rico and San Juan erupts. Every moment of this is amazing. The World Baseball Classic is something else.

Israel has killed tens of thousands of Palestinian women and girls in its genocidal war on Gaza.

On International Women's Day, we look at the number of women and girls Israel killed in Gaza in 2025.

The Fargo Woodchippers. It’s like a baseball player was fed into a woodchipper but not really its an animated logo style.

Some of the Minor League promo team names are ok but sometimes they nail it.

One of my coworkers, who is retiring at the end of the month, left work an hour early saying he didn’t want to lose an hour on the weekend so he was springing ahead now. Apparently he has been doing that for years.

If an artist isn't able to visualise their ideas on paper (or on the screen) without the use of genAI, they are not an artist.

I know some artists who aren't capable of visualising things in their head, yet they can still create stunning art. I know others who brainstorm their ideas and compositions with literal scribbles and stick figures, only to end up with a beautifully rendered piece.

There is absolutely no excuse for a self-respecting artist to use genAI at any point during their process.

Someone over on Instagram saying that genAI is bad for art, but can still be used by artists who have trouble visualising their ideas.

I had to reply.
