“wokism” — now there’s a good clean beautiful American-made word.

In terms of mobile internet, Germany barely reaches 68.91 Mbps

The snails in Germany must be somewhat faster than the ones around here.

The headline is not clickbait. It’s literally just reporting the news. The story beneath it is not sensationalist, it puts the number in context better than you did.

2025 continues as it began

The Trump Doctrine: “Let’s start a war with, I don’t know, let’s say Denmark. If we take Greenland, Canada will be surrounded then it’s just Mexico and we get the continent bonus.”

xAI and X’s futures are intertwined — they will fall together into the howling void of pain, madness, and leveraged buyout debt, leaving Elon with only his $45 billion dollars for consolation.

In these troubled times the nation will need a strong leader. Is it time to bring back the divine right of kings? Experts remain divided.

For some reason the phrase that comes to mind is “fabricating a claim.”

Doritos come from a plant? Far out, man.

• XXX WARNING EXTREME DANGER XXX — Marijuana can make you feel good, but may temporarily impair your ability to safely operate heavy machinery. [illustration of a forklift plunging into the abyss, the driver looking relaxed and happy; it hits the ground and explodes]

• MARIJUANA CAN MAKE YOU HIGH [bored teenagers at a party, one young man clearly enjoying himself too much sitting near the TV laughing at The Flintstones]

For $5000 in advance from the DEA I’ll develop any one of these premises into a professional-quality educational video.

72 hours? No problem. Always have a big bag of rice on hand and you’re done.

I’m sort of tired of articles describing some catastrophe that happened ten years ago and saying “it’s worrying.”

It’s too bad that “The Great Reset” they have in mind is just tearing down democratic institutions and handing all power to fascists, because a reset that was truly great might be worthy of consideration: All debts cancelled, all bank balances zeroed, all existing copyrights and contracts annulled, ownership of homes falls to those who live in them, ownership of factories and fields are granted to those who work in them, and after a period of great confusion we start again from there.

“not that bad” — a very comfortable and well-decorated prison. But you can’t blame pixelfed for every poor choice its users might make in their lives.

If enacted, I’m guessing the main effect of this would be to make “meow” the new standard greeting among a large fraction of the student population in Texas high schools.

Reading in general is of course quite easy compared to reading the Washington Times (my fingers automatically typed “Washington Post” there, a publication slightly more like a real newspaper) which most people would understandably prefer to avoid. In this case there’s no need, the illustration alone conveys the message well enough.

I haven’t spend a lot of time fantasizing about unlikely crossovers but now that you mention it: Grand Theft Auto + Animal Crossing
