“losing brand deals for dissing Mao” is darkly funny in several different ways

CNN@cnn.com

Soccer star Kylian Mbappé apologized for comments in which he apparently referred to Mao Zedong, the founding leader of Communist China, as a dictator, after facing backlash and losing brand deals with three different Chinese companies. https://cnn.it/48jDo66

Failing to stay on message! The correct line is "Cheesecake Factory is awesome, all my homies love Cheesecake Factory"

Trump is BIG MAD about Obama saying the White House now looks like Saddam opened a Cheesecake Factory: "He's not a smart guy. He's not smart at all ... for you to say it's a Cheesecake Factory, that just shows why you were a lousy president"

Guy who sees the “are we the baddies?” sketch and nods sagely while a single tear drops from his squinted eyes.

Early this year, I visited Ingram, a TX town of ~1,900, to check out a tip. The area was starting to recover from its worst flood in a century. But as Latino workers drove to jobsites to help rebuild, the tipster said, a cop in a black Dodge Charger kept stopping them ... 🧵

Psyche Delhi-san, the mascot for the shopping district in hip and alternative Koenji, Tokyo, is a mysterious psychedelic creature with glowing eyes and a protruding tongue.

“A spectacular final scene. The Challenger crashes into a bulldozer, reaching its "vanishing point." What, exactly, is the meaning behind that death? It’s a work that poses questions like this.”

A review of “Vanishing Point” by Jamz Taoka in the June 2003 issue of Hyper Car Style Battle Magazine.

“Check!! This is my absolute favorite scene!! This veteran challenger runs wild in every scene and every aspect! This is truly a movie by challengers, for challengers, and about challengers!”

A review of “Vanishing Point” by Jamz Taoka in the June 2003 issue of Hyper Car Style Battle Magazine.

“"Vanishing point" — a point of disappearance, or death. Set in early 1970s America—a society in chaos—the film captures the essence of that era: the counterculture, the spirit of Woodstock, the hippies... it feels as though the entirety of American society at the time is packed into this movie.”

“Barry Newman, born in the U.S. in 1938—it might sound a bit rude to say, but I feel he never delivered a performance with quite as much impact as the one in this film. That’s not to say his other work lacks appeal; it’s just that his character, Kowalski, is so incredibly cool.“

Okay, yes, the Grink *was* there, I’m sorry I didn’t say anything. It’s just… I know how you feel, and I didn’t want it to be a thing… we just said a cordial “hello” to each other and caught up a bit. No, I didn’t know ahead of time. It was a bummer because I was all “oh man, this will be a thing,

Heartily endorse this interpretation. Even as someone who has historically been pretty "creatively productive" in a variety of ways I find it incredibly hard to overcome my device addiction and actually spend time doing things I enjoy.

something that occurred to me is, everyone knows it’s possible to become a musician with work and practice. but you can’t work on and practice music while staring slackjawed at your phone. the real promise of generative AI is the ability to ‘make’ ‘art’ without reducing your slackjawed scroll time

It's going to be so funny to write about The Devils because the entire piece is going to be a constellation of sentences that amount to, "and this fucken sick thing happens, and then this fucken sick thing happens". I can't wait to begin writing that tomorrow haha

I'm definitely suspicious that some of the poisonous discourse which emerges from these here microblogging platforms is prompted by the experience of seeing someone's reaction to a post before seeing the post being reacted to.

Human beings are fatally incapable of recognizing the pathetic fallacy and our brains are hardwired for animism and anthropomorphism.

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.

It's pretty remarkable that none of Elon's various past wives and babymamas ever [redacted] him down the stairs.

AI successionism—the belief that humans are merely a stepping-stone in cosmic evolution on the way to a “worthy successor”—is a growing movement. Now, it has more support from a man with unimaginable wealth and power.

This article offers half a dozen reasons why people have stopped having friends and family over, but it ignores the fact that the women who planned parties and kept homes tidy enough for unplanned guests are now working for pay full-time (usually more than 9-5). www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

So, happy 89th anniversary of the day Oswald Mosley tried to sell fascism to Liverpudlians—and someone concussed him with a brick

This is just a fucking carjacking. How the hell was he supposed to know it was a state sponsored carjacking. what the fuck are we doing here.

The NYPD just released surveillance video of the ICE shooting (which occurred off camera). Two men in civilian clothes run up to a car with guns drawn. One second later, one man begins smashing the butt of his gun into the driver’s side window. The driver appears to panic and hit the gas.
