Sorry to bloviate there. Really happy you're doing what you're doing Dave, and thank you for the refreshing honesty. Glad I support LNI.
The biggest structural issue I have in the first amendment comes down to if that speech is a call to violence. We've all heard the "fire in a crowded theater" metaphor. Was what Charlie Kirk was saying free speech, or was it a threat of violence? Did it actively cause harm from him saying it?
KIM KITSURAGI - "What is it, detective? Can you make it out?" BULLET - "if you read this you are gay lmao" 1. "It, um, doesn't say anything." 2. "Transgender ideology. My old foe." 3. [Espirit de Corps - Medium 10] "I think you should read it for yourself, Kim."
Excellent.
man they really didn't give a shit about that guy. as soon as it was clear they couldn't use his death to launch a purge they started to treat it like a nothingburger
It's a masterpiece of a show.
On X everyone misread this part of the arrest report and thinks it means Tyler Robinson said Charlie Kirk spread hate. The relative said that, not the shooter himself.
A lot of performative grandstanding right now about how people *should* react to Kirk’s murder. People can both denounce gun violence/murder AND hold no sympathy for a person who made a living off of promoting violence against others.
rarely have I more acutely felt the dynamic by which Dems are held responsible for the rhetoric of every random left-leaning person on the internet and Republicans are not even asked to answer for their own personal words
Nice
I feel like if we made an AI app that was made to replace the CEOs of companies, we'd suddenly have a bunch of laws regulating AI.
The Venus de "Uh-oh"
This week’s main story is about Donald Trump’s grudge against higher education, what we stand to lose if he continues to withhold federal funding from universities, and which unexpected celebrity may hold the key to eternal youth. And yes, we have compelling evidence on that last point. You’ll see.
I remember hearing your voice appear in one of my favorite podcasts, and immediately yelling out "Aw hell yeah!". Glad you were a part of it too man!
The crossover I didn't know I needed. Please Remain Indoors.
More like Reese With-a-shitty-take.
Sorry I can't shut the fuck up about what RFK Jr is doing, but I just get mad when I think about having to tell my kid that there used to be safe and effective ways to prevent disease, but a man who sounds like a piece of wobbling sheet metal took them away to unburden everyone's mitochondria
I enjoyed this. And what an infectious laugh. ❤️ "Reporter left speechless after witnessing Japan's new $70 million Maglev train in action at 310 mph"
Extremely excited to announce I'm co-hosting a NEW PODCAST with @pizzasuplex.bsky.social and @thesaintoftous.bsky.social and even better, it's part of a NEW WEBSITE! www.rogue.site/podcasts/pat...
I absolutely agree. And I'd much prefer casting roles for people that represent honesty and truth. Sorry if that came off otherwise.
I feel like Nick would at least be respectful and studious in his role. He's a genuinely good dude.
The Toxic Avenger is clearing medical debt as marketing for the movie.

Did Will Smith really generate a crowd with AI?
I love that the transphobic dad still manages to get her pronouns right.
It's Minnesota State Fair time! It's time for Minnesotan folk art! Here, for example, is Saturn Devouring His Corn, in the seed art category!
That's cool. I'll be able to pretend I'm Megaman. Pew pew!
As we all know, they went to shit the day they fired Brad's wife.
I was a valet at a party at Finklestein's house once. Surprising no one, the tips were very bad.
Health tracking watches are wild. Sitting down as you get complimented for your 10000th step, while getting ready to house some Pizza Rolls is a strange dichotomy.
Fuck that's terrific.
One of my favorite meme's was saying that Mambo No. 6 never came out because we're not ready for it as a society. Lou Bega will end us all.
"I don't know if that's true, but I've been told // it's real sweet to grow old." Miss you Ben.
A tremendous loneliness comes over you. Everybody in the world is doing something without you.
Oooooh! Thank you!
Devito is a cinch for Franklin.
Woo!
It's shockingly good.
I saw someone say it was a hero sandwich, and I think that's terrific.

Thanks! I brush the shit out of those two teeth.

Talarico owns Will Cain so hard that he has to tap out of their interview based on "time"
Usually tough to get a consensus so quickly. But the answer is clear.
Voting for the next album title. Will post the result tomorrow, but feel free to add your faves below!
I'm Jewish and I think about antisemitism all the time. I can't tell you how fucking weird it is that Homeland Security posting literal neo-Nazi propaganda generates less discussion about the threat to Jews than a mayoral candidate who believes Palestinians are human beings.
Couldn't agree more. You guys rock.
What is Along Golden Ratio Pond?
An Israeli strike targeted at least one journalist in Gaza, killing five total
ICE agent, under oath, on the stand: We don’t do immigration raids. We do targeted “at-large operations.” “I don’t know anyone who actually conducts raids,” he says. (Long silence in the courtroom.)
"Also, did you bring some changes of socks? Fuck dude, you're definitely going to need some spare socks. Shits cold up here. "
ASSISTANT DIRECTOR SKINNER: We’re closing down the X-files again. MULDER: Because I’m too close to truth! SKINNER: No, a DOGE guy named “Big Balls” got pounded into hamburger by a pack of rowdy teens, so the president is turning you into a traffic cop.
My exact review.
I literally don't know who this person is, or what they did, or why they wrote a shitty War and Peace, but it hurt my brain to read like 7 sentences of it. Can I get a TLDR on who this person is?
I like to think a lot of things on this topic. They are definitely things that I have no definitive evidence to make me believe it. But I want to believe it.
I'd as time why it keeps on slippin'? Slippin'? Slippin' into the future?
Environmental storytelling.
Mamdani has explained clearly and persuasively why he doesn't favor means-tested programs and why he's living in a rent-stabilized apartment nyeditorialboard.substack.com/p/zohran-mam...
I apparently already had them blocked? So I don't know what was said or why. Lol
Thanks for saying this. And thanks for helping me find you on Bsky! Love your content.
So I personally am against LLMs. But I tested this and did not find the same result. Just for fact checking.
I think, as an old punk, that if the establishment is pushing cruelty, being kind is anti-establishment as hell. But that doesn't mean lay down and die. If there's a nazi in the pit, give him the boots. But still make sure to stop and pick up the punks that can't help themselves.
I really want SF2e to reach new audiences because I think there's both a whimsy to it and a strong cultural commentary that will resonate with people who maybe weren't as interested in Pathfinder. SF2e is weird, fantastical, action-packed, and very critical of capitalism. And the rules are free!
Whoa, that's gorgeous!
Journalists and AI had a tough week
What fucking nightmare land do we live in? Fuck this.
Fuck this wrecked me.
"Bluesky is dying" Oh yeah? Then explain why this GIF always does numbers.
As a bigger guy with a bigger heart, Jacob inspires me every day. Bigfoot only inspires me some days. So the real heroes are the Jacobs we meet along the way.

"Night Road" - my oil painting
In today's newsletter, @davejorgenson.bsky.social worries about getting sued and @mbgelman.bsky.social works the fax machine.
This is lovely.
Yeah its not easy out here. Thanks Wil. This helped.
I see it more like a kind of subtle, sassy kick as opposed to a full Leonidas. Kind of disgust as opposed to anger
Happy tears I hope?
I'm a leftist man who doesn't have very much sex. The difference is in the question you ask. I ask "what's wrong with ME?". The manosphere asks "what's wrong with THEM?" Locus of control is the core to empathy, and I don't know if there's a way to teach that. I hope there is.
Hey look! A prophet!
My prediction is that in that scenario, he blames the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which puts out employment data. Calls them corrupt, run by Democrats, out to get him. Fires people there, insists their numbers cannot be trusted, White House puts out its own fictitious data to make Trump look good
Skipper!
With news that the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is shutting down due to Trump’s meddling, it’s worth watching Mr. Rogers testifying to the Senate about the real value of what we’ve all lost.
It's gonna be my new number one!
@volkmeter.bsky.social I was literally going to share this and tag you, and then saw it was your repost I was seeing, lol.
