- Comment on Harry and Meghan sign new multi-year film and TV deal with Netflix 1 week ago:
“Spotify’s head of podcast innovation and development labelled the pair “grifters” on his own podcast after the Sussexes announced the end of the relationship.”
Sounds about right.
- Comment on Inconsiderate fucks who litter 3 weeks ago:
When I was in high school there was a guy in the class below us that ate a slice of pizza every day for lunch and every day brushed the box onto the ground in the outdoor seating area and walked away. We started collecting them and when we had a few dozen we filled his locker with them with a note not to be such an inconsiderate asshole. Enough people saw them come tumbling out of his locker that shaming him for littering became a popular meme for a while and he was really self conscious about it after that. It felt soooooo good.

How long until the Internet is so full of bots and AI spam that it becomes impossible to even find our fellow humans amid the noise?

- Comment on Fixed speed camera toppled hours before switch-on 1 month ago:
They don’t though. The people who can afford a traffic lawyer or know how the system works just get them dismissed. It’s just another tax on those with the least resources.
- Comment on Fixed speed camera toppled hours before switch-on 1 month ago:
Speed cameras don’t increase safety. Just ticket revenue.
- Comment on 🚨 NEW: UK police are being told to hide their work with Palantir. 1 month ago:
I would think it’s just standard at this point with Palantir that you don’t want anyone to know what you are doing with them. It’s like saying you partnered with Darth Maul on your CRM database. No matter how innocuous the project it reeks of evil.
- Comment on UK to host Donald Trump for full state visit this year, says Buckingham Palace 1 month ago:
That place has to have some trap doors into a dungeon. Let’s go medieval.

- Comment on Ads when you’re pumping gas 2 months ago:
Or… hear me out here … we could weaponize them. Most of them are operated by a company called GSTV who sell the ad slots. They could be purchased by activist groups to un-brainwash people who can’t mute them. They could read banned books out loud. Teach science. Explain what’s wrong with the electoral college.
GSTV also offers very precise targeting at specific zip codes or stations. So you could play an ad at your local station about whatever stupid thing your HOA is trying to do.

You should be more worried about the screens in your car…

- Comment on Guardian will no longer post on Elon Musk’s X from its official accounts 9 months ago:
Keep pressuring all journalists, celebrities, brands, and influencers to delete their accounts or at least stop posting there (and publicly say so). Twitter’s only power to spread untruths is the eyeballs still watching it.
