To my American friends: polls don't matter if people get complacent and stay home. This is the most important midterm election in the history of the United States. The best time to vote is right now. Don't wait - vote early. You have the power to hit the brakes, but only if you put your foot down.

In 2010 I entered FanExpo Canada backstage with Stan Lee. I was in line outside and saw two volunteers escorting him in. I called his name, shook his hand, and joined them. Stan Lee was on Late Night with Conan O'Brien in 1995 Obama was on Late Night with Conan O'Brien in 2006 So, my number is 3.

To flip some discourse script for a bit: what’s y’all’s Obama number (ie degrees of separation with the former president)? Mine is 3

Hornet as a Warframe! Turntable edition. I posted a bunch more pics on my X account but the turntable catches them all well. I'm so proud of how this project turned out :) #warframe #tennocreate #silksong

Just to be clear on what happened with the zero-day exploits PHP is patching today: the flaws have existed for a decade. GenAI turned them into a working exploit and released the details before they were patched. Now they're taking credit for "finding" them. For "security." They're not good guys.

$24.99 for Blue Prince on its own is worth it. Then you get nine other games too. And the proceeds go to charity. All in all, that's pretty good.

because it is relevant to my work, I have tried very hard to educate myself on how AI works, be fair and measured in how I evaluate it, and regularly test new tools to confirm or debunk my priors and tbh AI haters are just nailing it with less work like 99% of the time. keep at it folks

Literally: What would you say if you saw it in another country?

Wow. “A small group of U.S. national security officials has been discreetly advising state governments & congressional lawmakers on how to prepare for the possibility that the Trump administration will attempt to interfere in November’s midterm elections.” www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Jesus' entire set of teachings was about empathy. Anyone who claims to be a Christian but doesn't think empathy is foundational is not actually Christian, they're a LARPer.

Albania's corrupt government secretly sold a popular nature preserve to Jared Kushner to be bulldozed for an exclusive resort, and Albanians responded by burning everything to the ground.

The Supreme Court burns to the ground in Albania, Parliament and the Department of Education has been stormed, the Prime Minister is in hiding and the country is effectively in the hands of the rebels. Albania rejects blatant corruption and their country being sold.

I'd love to see how the Alberta separatist movement has been affected by this Russian bot farm outage.

We’ve been talking about this for years. None of these far-right movements are organic.
