Mastered the role of absentee dad
Sure. Why not?
Wait, what? I just assumed it was cooked up as competition for The Munsters.

Agree. But tribalism makes people see the choices as herpes/syphilis vs getting run over by a truck.
Such a dangerous path to go down. Impugning a race based on a statistic that is true based on the numbers leads to a lot of bad consequences. Is "The numbers show that xxx race/gender does zzz, and therefore the entire race/gender is responsible" a good message?
I'm definitely not a Trump voter, but there's a recurring theme among them that the left makes them feel guilty about everything. This messaging, that it's "white voters", not just some of them doesn't help.

Damn, how's a whole state gonna lose to some guy?
I can

When asked about this, American Airlines Chief Customer Service Officer Heather Garboden said: "Our premium customers have told us they prefer to bring their own listening devices onboard."

I dare you to go to Annunciation School and tell our grieving community, in effect, guns don’t kill kids, antidepressants do. Just shut up. Stop peddling bullshit. You should be fired.
@weisenthal.bsky.social this argument sounds a lot like your interview with Liz Truss
Powerful stuff guys. Great job.
Update: it got funny again
This seems like a recipe for a) not getting the service you want at all; and b) bankrupting the workers (legal or not)
The funny thing is that this *should* be done and there are about a thousand cheaper and more productive ways of doing it than sending in the National Guard. If DJT wants to explore those, let him knock himself out.

Wow
No spines though
The year is 2037. The last two Democrats on Earth are arguing through their state-mandated Neuralink implants on why the other person is bad because of one unshared opinion left in their rotten brains.
My life will have to go on somehow not knowing the fate of Blossom.
Firing her is bad, but ignoring the units on the Y-axis doesn't really support your point.
It's BlueSky. If you say something nice about a rainbow, advocates for the colorblind will hunt you down.
Directionally, yes. Most everyone has a gay or lesbian relative/friend and are fine with it (see the support for gay marriage over time). As the list got longer (I A + ...) I think people A) didn't know what these things were; and B) meant shorthand for 'weird sex thing'. Using Queer added to that.
I suspect that each additional letter costs about an electoral percentage point.
Democratic leadership is a bunch of eggheads who can't speak to normal people. They still believe they are the party of the working man. I mean I like Adam Schiff and he's a smart guy, but a lot of America likes carnival barkers so we get what we have with the modern republican party.
Wow
In 25 years, every business school in the country will be doing case studies about how a long defunct company known as “Google” once had an unbeatable lock on online information retrieval and then started doing shit like this.

The thing is fundamentally social media is poison for the Democratic Party because left wing voices (center left as well here) are anxiety-stricken whiners who can't take a win or ever feel good so their content sucks.
we used to build household shrines to Going On The Computer and it's no coincidence that as we abandoned these we started straying further from god's light
Tremendous crossover move right here:
I was wondering what that swirling sound was
There’s a terrible semantic mismatch between skeptics being overly dismissive and vendors being over zealous. LLMs help in my day-to-day work and help me (a PhD scientist) with brainstorming even if they aren’t intelligent per se. I hope the strident beliefs on both sides can be moderated.
There’s this disconnect between thinking something represents AGI and something being useful. An LLM can be *incredibly* useful even if it isn’t “intelligent”.
I see a red wall and I want it to turn black
They probably consider that advertising. A feature not a bug.
Blazing a Trail to Progress exhibit.
Boring rationalist here. You probably tripped a circuit breaker.
Indeed, can you imagine someone elected to a big political job persistently posting self-aggrandizing tweets while taunting and insulting rivals in all caps? 🤔
Oof. The Cook County Bears, Monsters of the Northwest Highway
It’s disorder and petty crime. Yes, homicides are down, but people associate homeless encampments, open air hard drug use, fare evaders, downtown ATV riders, and locked up merchandise at Target and CVS with crime. And no statistics are going to convince them when they see it every day.
Have they given one thought to people that live in food deserts?
Spelling Bee drives organic chemists nuts. Toluene, pentene, enol, and eluent are all legit words.
A few of those will make the country more populent
Glad they spent their limited time talking about this (if it happened). And if so, he got played so hard.
I was in school in Champaign, IL from 90-94. Wasn't super into indie music. Must have seen signs for Uncle Tupelo dozens of times. Don't think I ever went. Now as a middle-aged fan of all those bands I regret missing out seeing UT in a small venue for something like $12.
Seems like a strange topic to be spending valuable time on.
This video from Fairmount Bagels in Montreal from their Instagram is the most impressive thing I've ever seen
Save the banality for LinkedIn
Sure. Why not?
When did the slowdown in breakthroughs you allude to happen relative to this graph of US federal scientific funding over time? www.aaas.org/sites/defaul...
Cluck chemistry -- awarded a Nobel Prize recently. (I'll show myself out)
LAX is fine inside but getting in and out is the worst. Hopefully the people mover fixes things. LHR is a pain to connect in if you have to change terminals. CLT just sucks. Crowded. AA lounges are bad (C/D) or too small (B). Centurion is usually packed.

I'd like to hear more about the idea. I would predict that the well-educated urbanites are the least squeezed and are helping sustain the economy. Or is your concern "aspirational" folks who will forgo Cava for something less expensive?
Maybe it will stop this
Oops. I thought I tried it earlier and it was rejected.
Such an awful, awful show.
Metagenome!
Looks like repurposed Klan garb
Ah, they weren’t Chicago stations like the VHF ones.
Do you have the front pages? Curious about the UHF channels which all seem to have disappeared.
No lies detected
Blue Jay: My scientific name is Cyanocitta cristata American Robin: Oh that's beautiful, I don't know mine, not sure if I have one
Between the hype and the naysayers lies something that resembles the truth. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...
You sure about this, Google?
It's sad to laugh at an elderly man falling down
I'm guessing the Cybertruck can't even pull off the feats of a Toyota Hilux.
A big race car bed?
Meant to encompass automation/precision farming. Yes, crops have been harvested mechanically for a long time.
Mechanization of farming and improved yields vs. still labor intensive slaughter?
2025 man
As end-of-empire scenarios go it is so much more dignified to get your capital city sacked by the Visigoths than to have a bunch of illiterate rich people in their 70s doing it through a series of incomprehensible tantrums because their brains were defeated by their phones.
RFK Jr. is a moron but BARDA isn't the NIH. The decision is wrong but so are the takes about all mRNA vaccine research coming to an end.
The Odd Lots podcast today had a good discussion.
Hard core MAGA won't care because they are "America First". They will promote domestic travel like Bush promoted consumption post 9/11.
Robert Isom acting shocked is funny as AA has quietly started quoting different fares when 2 people travel together vs. a single flier. It's cheaper per person to travel as a pair than solo. Presumably because business travelers travel alone and have higher pain points than leisure travelers.
Sad, but strangely beautiful
I think this is correct and as you point out, it’s media pushing the narrative. Time was you compared yourself to the neighbors and their cars. Now it’s comparing yourself to many who are not legitimately your peers.
He covered three songs on the compilation Day of the Dead which actually got me to appreciate the Dead more than I previously did. "If I Had the World to Give" is another beautiful cover. You might like some of the covers even if you don't like the originals. music.apple.com/us/album/day...
Rubin and Cherise (Grateful Dead) covered by Bonnie Prince Billy Hallelujah (Leonard Cohen) covered by Jeff Buckley Looking for Space (John Denver) covered by Evan Dando
They'll rationalize everything by saying it would have been worse under Harris. There's no accountability for his lies.
