These folks can’t win any arguments - or, apparently, elections either - these days, so they just have to make shit up to cope, I guess.

Great moment to remind people that when the banks went on strike in 1970s Ireland, the pubs stepped in overnight to form a decentralized monetary system and it worked fine.

Search is full of ads and wrong answers. Every other email is an ad. Prime Video charges you and shows ads. Paramount? Ads. Peacock? YouTube? Hulu? Ads followed by more ads. Netflix full of ads. Meta and X, every other thing is an ad. Pinterest is nothing but ads. AI is in everything. AI finishes sentences incorrectly and won’t stop. AI reads your email and search history to target you with more ads. Every time you open an app or visit a site there’s an update making it worse. In a hurry?

Check your email and enter that code. Now use a passkey. Your password is too simple to remember. Change it. No, not like that. Now log on. Enter your 2FA code.

We’ve got to update your laptop and will slow down everything you do until you agree to update. But first, click here to agree. Update installed — your laptop’s broken now. It doesn’t matter, since your boss just replaced you with AI. Go to your phone to complain on social media. Wait, your phone needs an update so we can add more AI. Click here. Oh sorry, your phone can’t handle this update. Now it’s useless. Go get the newest phone. Here’s a text from a friend, an email, a voice mail they left three days ago but you didn’t see until now because of sync problems with the cloud. It’s their GoFundMe. Their MLM. Their Patreon. Never mind, you didn’t respond to their text within 9 minutes and now you’re no longer friends. They blocked you. Make new friends. Download this app to find people in your area. In your neighborhood. On your street. Two doors down from you. Do you know this person yet, we think you’d get along. You need an account to use this app. That username is taken. Enter a password. Not that one, you used it on another site. You need to be connected to WiFi to download the app. Allow the app to connect to other devices on your network. Allow the app to access your contacts, know your precise location, store your credit card details. Oops, sorry, we got hacked now all that info is available on the web. There’s a class action suit. You can join. It’ll take a decade to get your $3.73 share of the ten billion settlement. We’ll send it via PayPal or deposit it to your bank, just tell us those details. Oh no, another hack. That info is circulating now, too. Here’s a spam call, a spam email, a spam text. Why are you angry? Why are you talking about getting rid of your phone? Why don’t you like AI, it lets us make all of this easier? Do you know how ridiculous that sounds? This is progress. You’ll be left behind. Do you want to be left behind? Do you???

I am telling you - the United Nations would have to deploy peacekeepers to the Midwest if it's Nebraska vs. Iowa in the Sweet 16.

I love that Ohio is just a testing center for data centers, autonomous trucks, toxic spills, train derailment disasters, etc.

Go Buckeyes!

[Draft Jon Stewart 2028 @Stewart_2028]

🚨HOLY SH*T: Is Jon Stewart running for president?
A guest directly asked him to his face, and he spent two minutes avoiding the question and not saying yes or no.
@jonstewart, what are you planning?

[Mike Vielhaber @MVielhaber]

Imagine it…2032 the Browns are good and are featured on Sunday night. They take the blimp shot. It shows an airport, warehouses, abandoned commercial property, a Ford plant and a repo lot…
