@jarroddicker @tomfgoodwin @emilybell If readers could get credit for attention they spend, as proof of commitment / competence on subjects, idea of value is transformed. Becomes identity. Then quality beats quantity.

We’ve been brainwashed to think it can’t be the consumer that tangibly benefits. This is a fallacy.

You know what would be amazing if Vance and his team can negotiate an agreement where Iran doesn't enrich above 3.67% (far below weapons grade); gets rid of 98% of its stockpile of enriched uranium; has weekly inspections by the IAEA; keeps the straits open without charging anyone; and commits to all of this for at least ten years. Oh, yeah, that was the Obama Iran deal.

@heyohelen I learn from the best 😌☝️

My friend has launched something new. Behold ✨

Given personality insights are all the rage (MBTI, astrology etc) am v curious to see where this goes.

💭Am fascinated by idea of games as a personalization layer, organic behaviour as personal insights. The game layer of the quantified self.

…
Without a culture that values art, beautiful art won’t appear. And without beautiful art, we won’t know how to value it.”

@scottjbrown @TheTNHoller @PressSec @karolineleavitt As in it's not a racial thing, and just about farmer violence? But that's now what the press sec is claiming. The facts in no way back up her explanation. And she surely knows it, just as Trump did. Which is what the journalist was getting it.

“Have you ever found yourself emotionally invested in the Toronto Maple Leafs? Has watching them in the playoffs ever make you think about walking into the sea? Do you hate yourself for foolishly allowing the hope sink in? You may be entitled to financial compensation.”

[Mario 🟢 @1upm]

@DCoolican New proposed playoff rule: injure an opposing player on a play deemed at all dirty, other team gets to remove a player of equivalent position or impact for equal time. Judged the way they judge suspensions based on prior history.

[Mario 🟢 @1upm]

@DCoolican Fact it’s same clown who head-slammed Knies last year (also zero repercussions) makes my blood boil.

[Mario 🟢 @1upm]

@Alm0stYell0w @SteveWarneMedia I'm a Leafs fan (sadly, masochistically) and this is exactly it. There was some hope, but... fool me once, shame on me; fool me twice, three, four times... this is why as far as Leafs fans are concerned, game 6 is basically game 7 for this group. Do-or-die.

[Mario 🟢 @1upm]

… Especially with economic calamity being arguably the top voting concern, specifically drawing attention to and bragging about a more superficial plan lacking the detail of a traditional in-depth proposal is such a strange own goal.

[Mario 🟢 @1upm]

This is supposed to be a pro-Conservative argument by Postmedia? “Slogan-packed” and avoiding that “egghead” “funny accounting”?🫠

Are conservatives not cheesed at being openly labeled as only able to understand picture books and simple words? #Election2025

[Luis Garicano 🇪🇺🇺🇦 @lugaricano]

When do we start to call this by its name? A French researcher has his phone and laptop confiscated and is refused entry because of personal messages found in a "random search" at the border criticizing Trump.

minimum necessary obsession

[Mario 🟢 @1upm]

/ If you believe what you say on a given subject should be amplified and trusted, you should have to show your effort put in to be seen by more than 100 people. This would fix 99.9% of what's making platforms (and the world they shape) enshittified noise-over-signal toxic bogs.

[Visa is doing marketing consults (see pinned!) @visakanv]

if you say you're ambitious, but you don't have a body of work you can point at, you should STFU and build the body of work first. even if it's a bunch of notes and drafts and crappy prototypes or whatever. code your apps, write your plays and poems. I will die on this hill.

I cant get over this. I'm trying to opt-out of Meta training AI on my Instagram photos.

I followed the MAZE of buried pages trying to get to the AI opt-out page, and when I'm finally done, finish 2-Factor Auth, the page just gives me an error!
