You know what the best part of my day is? It's for about ten seconds from when I wake up to when I open Twitter. Because I think maybe I'll click the icon and Twitter won't be there. No goodbye, no see you later, no nothin'. Just gone.
The winner of the Nathan Fielder lookalike contest in San Francisco has to make a documentary about the winner of the Elizabeth Holmes lookalike contest in New York. Anyway, Nov. 7 at 1pm looks to be a big day and time for lookalikes.
The strength of the 60s Czech New Wave might be enough to sway me towards the 60s International.
It’s become accepted wisdom that '70s American cinema was the ultimate high-water mark. But while that decade produced many beautiful films, 1960s International Cinema will always reign supreme for me.
Which decade do you prefer?
ALT L'Avventura (1960) Michaelango Antonioni
ALT Viridiana (1961) Luis Buñuel
ALT Jules and Jim (1962) Françios Truffaut
ALT Persona (1966) Ingmar Bergman
Someone asked me if I wanted a chicken salad and I said what makes it chicken, did it back down from a fight?
The only thing tackier than Obama’s joke that Trump has the White House looking like if Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory is Trump’s White House.
When you’re worth a trillion, why not throw around $500 million or so to try and buy a politician or two. It’s not a big deal if Elon’s candidates lose. He’ll still be worth a trillion and above the law no matter what. He’ll just be *more* above the law with republicans.
I suspected the Ebola outbreak had hit a new milestone because I donated blood the other day and the blood center had added questions like if I've been in contact with anyone who's tested positive for Ebola or traveled to areas where Ebola is active. nytimes.com/2026/10/22/healt…
I try not to be an ai alarmist but this is alarming ai behavior. Enough to make me wanna keep a couple thousand in small bills tucked away.
SCOOP: Major U.S. banks are detecting unauthorized third-party AI agents inside customer accounts, including some attempting to take actions that appear to be independent of user instructions, sources told Axios.
The findings have alarmed banking executives, who are racing to restrict access to their systems as AI moves at a velocity faster than financial institutions can respond, multiple industry and bank executives told Axios.
Several banks are now preparing for worst-case and even “day after” scenarios, including how to rapidly secure or restore customer accounts if things go wrong, the people said.
Several bank executives told Axios they're struggling to distinguish between human users and AI agents. One executive said banks also struggle to determine whether agents are authorized by customers or potentially operating without their permission, more akin to rogue agent behavior.

Of course measles is running rampant. This was bound to happen when we confirmed a health secretary whose pronouns are Me/A/Sles.
It’s times like this, when we’re in the midst of the largest measles outbreak in 30 years, that I wish we didn’t have a pro-disease health secretary.
FYI, that amount of money is next to nothing for a trillionaire. That’s like a millionaire donating $150 to a campaign. Elon could quadruple this kind of spending 10 times over in a single campaign and it would still be a pittance to him, a rounding error.
Elon Musk, who has major business interests in Texas, appeared to funnel $158 million to back Ken Paxton’s Senate bid. nyti.ms/4egE3sp
What a Tribute to Bob Uecker it would be if both Cleveland and the Brewers make it to the World Series.
Affleck, Damon, Hauser, Rapp. School Ties, Dazed and Confused, and Good Will Hunting. 50s, 70s, 90s. It’s an unofficial trilogy about three generations of these four characters.
