What are those Scientology speed-runners up to these days?
Why can't the entirety of the US media figure out if McConnell is alive or dead?

Adam Silver take note:
The "Wrong Identity" rule was applied for the first time in football history. The VAR intervened to transfer a yellow card from US defender Ream to Paraguay attacker Almirón, who dived.

.@TheOceanCleanup is now intercepting 2 to 5% of global plastic pollution. I think we should be able to double again this year.
Boyan says this is 1-2% of global plastic emissions. If it were only 1% and they were able to keep growing at this rate, they'd capture all emissions in 8 years.

2026 resolution: drink less. (NA beer explodes in freezer) 2026 resolution: deep clean freezer.

This feels like a tiny moment of reclaiming our democracy. We all knew there was foreign influence masquerading as extreme views from all sides. I want @s to block them all, ranked by order of influence, across all social and traditional media.

Surely this was the artist’s intention from the beginning.
The clean mirror is maybe the greatest piece of art in the last 10 years. It represents the moment that the high-art of the elite is confronted by the sensibilities of the working class they claim to represent. Only millionaire dipshits love crappy art that obscures their vision. The working class they claim to admire sees right through their bullshit and fixes their perception so that it is clean and clear and beautiful again. The upper class says "we are confused and obscured in the broken-ness of social awareness" and the working class says "I got some windex here, let me fix that for you"

This is one of the craziest ideas I've ever seen. He converted a drawing of a bird into a spectrogram (PNG -> Soundwave) then played it to a Starling who sung it back reproducing the PNG. Using the birds brain as a hard drive with 2mbps read write speed. youtube.com/watch?si=HMtVdHB…

The NYT best 100 movies of the century and reader choice lists are great.

I want to be able to filter Twitter by verified humans with college degrees. This site feels more and more like 13yo boys arguing with bots.

I don’t want to connect my coffee machine to the wifi network. I don’t want to share the file with OneDrive. I don’t want to download an app to check my car’s fluid levels. I don’t want to scan a QR code to view the restaurant menu. I don’t want to let Google know my location before showing me the search results. I don’t want to include a Teams link on the calendar invite. I don’t want to pay 50 different monthly subscription fees for all my software. I don’t want to upgrade to TurboTax platinum plus audit protection. I don’t want to install the Webex plugin to join the meeting. I don’t want to share my car’s braking data with the actuaries at State Farm. I don’t want to text with your AI chatbot. I don’t want to download the Instagram app to look at your picture. I don’t want to type in my email address to view the content on your company’s website. I don’t want text messages with promo codes. I don’t want to leave your company a five-star Google review in exchange for the chance to win a $20 Starbucks gift card. I don’t want to join your exclusive community in the metaverse. I don’t want AI to help me write my comments on LinkedIn. I don’t even want to be on LinkedIn in the first place. I just want to pay for a product one time (and only one time), know that it’s going to work flawlessly, press 0 to speak to an operator if I need help, and otherwise be left alone and treated with some small measure of human dignity, if that’s not too much to ask anymore.
