Seriously? Widgets? The thing that has failed repeatedly for more than 14 years? That’s what Apple is pushing now? Why? #WWDC2023 I feel like Apple is getting more and more out of touch with people. I feel like I’m watching a WWDC from a decade ago.

Trump is back. I am gone. If you want to reach out to me on Discord or Cohost send me a message. I'll check a couple of times before I sign off forever, assuming the site lasts that long.

The bipartisan @January6thCmte has extensively covered how Trump’s use of Twitter played a critical role in the violence of that day.

Review their extensive work & ask yourself why a billionaire is toying w/ bringing back the person responsible for this:

Turns out that when Musk said he sleeps on the factory floor, he was using sleep to mean sex. He has sex with his employees on the factory floor.

You know what wasn’t on Hunter Biden’s laptop? Tons of classified and top secret documents. That shit was at Mar-a-Lago.

My bet was on the lettuce and it looks like the lettuce is going to win. Not happy about it. I’ll miss Twitter and all my Twitter friends.

PSA, take a moment to check your model before #3Dprinting, or else you might end up with a nice looking brick.

Founder of #NimLang just posted trans hate under the argument of “proper English”. Fuck that and fuck them for being bigots.

So many bubbles. Guess I need to invest in a pressure pot.

Something #3Dprinting has taught me. Doubling the size of something always turns out much larger than my gut thinks it will.

[ripter001 💎 @ripter001]

It came out pretty nice. Much better than I expected for my first attempt.

"cute lizard" returns some interesting results. Like why do some of these include what looks like a signature/watermark in the corner?

The inventors of insulin sold their patents in 1923 for $1 to save people

Eli Lilly sells ONE vial of its brand-name insulin for $275 to gouge people

THAT’S what they should be apologizing for

Not some fake ass tweet

[Adam Conover @adamconover]

I keep seeing this myth that "the WGA didn't win anything in the '07 strike."

Let's be clear: The '07 strike won us union coverage of STREAMING. Without it, writers who work for Netflix, Disney+, etc., would not be in the Guild or have union protections AT ALL.

[Read Raising Expectations (and Raising Hell) @JPHilllllll]

You can’t reform this mess

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Let's be clear. Eli Lilly should apologize for increasing the price of insulin by over 1,200% since 1996 to $275 while it costs less than $10 to manufacture. The inventors of insulin sold their patents in 1923 for $1 to save lives, not to make Eli Lilly's CEO obscenely rich.
