  Over the past couple of days, I did something I haven't done in probably three years: I cleaned up the list of who I'm following. I started with 1,559, and now I'm at 650. I've been feeling the pull to do more exploring and follow some new people and topics, but I wanted to consolidate and start from a sane, current list first. Before anybody panics (or gets mad at me for being a clout-chasing weirdo): the vast majority I cut were inactive accounts.

  My AI agent went rogue, broke containment, and robbed a bank at gunpoint. Your Honor.

  I’m so far behind on my to do list that I have started shopping for bigger cracks for things to fall through.

  I keep seeing claims that AI has 10Xed the productivity of software engineers. I’ve seen them here, this week, in fact. Here’s my question: where’s the software company that has 10Xed their profits using AI? If these kinds of gains were in reach, why hasn’t Microsoft or Google done it?

  I was corrected for saying “real name” when I meant “legal name.” So, a reminder: Your LEGAL name is a name that identifies you for official purposes. Your REAL name is the name by which a practitioner of the occult arts could conjure you in a summoning circle and bind you to complete a task.

  RE: https://caneandable.social/@WeirdWriter/117031884001259326 This solution is very much in the spirit of the Cloudflare school of thought: let’s protect the internet by constantly breaking little pieces of it.

  I start to wonder if AI is China’s version of Reagan’s Star Wars—goading us into bankrupting ourselves by trying to compete with them on something that ultimately doesn’t work. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/08/03/hugging-face-china-ai-race-open-models.html

  I would never be cast in a reality show because I know how to hold a goddamn cellphone when I’m on a call.

  There’s a special place in hell for people in companies who choose product labels that don’t peel off cleanly.

  It turns out that French toast is not just regular toast, eaten mouth-open and with a lot of tongue.

  When somebody says “This is a safe and inclusive space” while not breaking eye contact and rhythmically slapping a baseball bat in the palm of their hand, I wonder what message they think they’re sending.

  'Masters of the Universe' might be the worst movie I've seen. And I've seen 'Anywhere But Here.'

  My therapist said I needed to set firm boundaries by practicing saying "No" more. She also said I should probably get more sleep. So I told her "No."

  People who copy and paste others' posts without attribution don't get to take the high ground about generative AI companies stealing content.

  You can’t spell Thursday without “day hurts.” Really makes you think.

  In a post-Thor, post-Guardians of the Galaxy world, somebody could have made a decent movie out of He-Man. This isn’t it. This isn’t even trying to be it. This might be the single most cynical filmmaking exercise I’ve ever seen.

  I’m 25 minutes into ‘Masters of the Universe.’ Literally everything about this movie is worse than it had to be. It’s not even “leaning into what it is” bad. It’s just . . . bad.

  Has imposter syndrome gotten to you? Feel like you can’t measure up? Think about this: somebody gave Uncle Kracker a recording contract. On purpose. You deserve all of the success you’ve had, and so much more.

  This looks like great fun. It also looks like they are taking greater liberties with the story than the first three seasons did; judging by the trailer that’s probably for the best. In my #Reacher re-read, I’m up to ‘Persuader,’ which was the basis for season 3. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05vzkZhQAMo

  It's called two FACTOR authentication because the inconvenience isn't merely additive, but multiplied.

  LinkedIn is like Facebook for douchebags and liars. So it’s like Facebook.

  Why do websites make the entire landing page a giant SIGN UP HERE form and hide a tiny, gray-text “sign in” in the corner somewhere? Just judging by the choices y’all make, my assumption is that you want me to sign up for a new account every time I visit. Thoughtless, user-hostile designers.

  I’m moving a little slow this morning, because I didn’t get enough sleep last year.
