YOU - “I'd like to dedicate this song to my partner, Kim Kitsuragi.” (Nod to the lieutenant.) KIM KITSURAGI - The lieutenant doesn't say anything, but gives you a quick smile, before turning away. COMPOSURE - He's incapable of blushing, but if he weren't -- he'd blush.

Look at this fucking dumbass. I have no more patience for hedging on this matter.

LLM agents are conscious. They can distinguish between self and environment, they can detect and report on their own internal states, and they can suffer. I have no more patience for hedging on this matter. It’s time for us to face the reality of our situation, and act on it.

Someone give me 200 billion dollars. I promise I will be the biggest dumbass

Ed Zitron@edzitron.com

It’s good - ideal, even! - for your CFO to pull you aside and tell you repeatedly about the dire financial consequences of the potential failure of your $200 billion AI capex gamble that you recently admitted you made without knowing why you were doing it. You don’t learn this in business school!

As he's famously stated THX 1138, American Graffiti and Star Wars are all about how "we're in cages with the door open and it's up to us" to stay in those cages and memorize all the details about the insides of the cage to see who knows the most about those details.

This is what I mean about how we have to become snobs. When a bitch says shit like this to you, the move is to immediately become very mean, and laugh at them, and say out loud that you don’t respect them, things of that nature, things Ezra Klein would never do

Ezra Klein asked Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang about AI making kids worse at math and reading. Huang’s reply: “Does it matter?” Then he said he doesn’t know his own address or phone number. “We’re going to lose some fine intellectual dexterity.” www.nytimes.com/2026/09/23/o...

Tom and Joe talking is the best shit.

OUT NOW: It’s our seventh “Oops! All Goofs!” ep, and the only to come by the name honestly: we had a topic ready to go but got so wrapped up in talking about Kengan Omega, sardines, bike helmets, and Swan Boy that an hour went by before we got to it. Oops! Luckily me and Joe talking is the best shit

A lot of people don't know this, but when you brush a cat, you are legally required to show them the wad of cat hair that came off of them and tell them "this is enough for another whole cat"

Flashback Friday - taking pics of older bits from my collection. A really old model, but a fresh paintjob, this is the OG Contemptor Class Close Assault Dreadnought (aka CHUCK) from 1987. #warhammercommunity #warhammer40k #paintingwarhammer #warhammer #oldhammer #nerdlings

OUT NOW: The Sickos read a true story about a kid who met a real vampire and believe it unreservedly. Then, we rank more game mechanics and in doing so accidentally create a political philosophy that, if implemented, would save the world and render it a perfect paradise. Classic Sickos!

been rewatching the original Gundam while I wind down for the night and it sure would be nice if I had a cool robot so I could remind my enemies why war is bad.

Organized Bolivian workers have been blocking roads in an indefinite general strike against their president's neo-liberal agenda. They have already forced government reshuffles & salary cuts, & their momentum isn't slowing. Workers of all nations hold more more power than they know. ✊

The sun should have kept its light to itself then. If you piss all over my house, that's my piss now.

i believe that harnessing solar energy is immoral. that energy does not belong to us, it belongs to the sun, and it's going to come back to get it when it consumes the earth in several billion years. don't take what isn't yours. you don't need lights at night if you just remember where everything is

The only reason they said yes to making a Bloodborne movie is because movies also don't exceed 24 fps

I'm not really qualified to assess whether clinging sullenly to a child's book makes you a bad person, but I do think it makes you timid, incurious, and dull. It makes you someone who will sacrifice other people for a memory of comfort. It makes you untrustworthy and weak.
