You Are Dumb, which is not a blog, wnet dormant in April 2019 after running out of things to say about life under Trump. It carried on, and still carries on, on Twitter @youaredumb, but may start sputtering back to life as a semblance of nuance returns to the world. My blog about being an old nerd, OLDNERD., went dormant around the same time due to generalized ennui, and we’ll see what happens there.

Lazy-Ass Twitter Week, Day 3Memo to the hundred-and-forty-first character: YOU ARE DUMB. With the heat wave and some stuff with my schedule and some general-purpose wingnut fatigue, I'm going to sort of take the week off. But lest you be bereft of YAD-y goodness during that time, and in another attempt to promote the @youaredumb Twitter account and crack the 500-follower barrier for the first time ever, I'll be Tweeting stuff during the day, then providing you non-Twitter types with what you're missing the next day.

New study shows 79% of mobile malware targets Android, but I’m pretty sure they’re counting all the manufacturer OS overlays. Which is fair. Blackberry is considering splitting off its messaging service into a new company, called The Only Thing People Like LLP. The NYPD has declared entire mosques are terrorists, allowing them to do anti-terror stuff to them. Guess this is the new “Miranda Rights” Today’s Headline That Made Me Throw Up A Little Before I Even Finished It: “Olivia Munn Ends Fashion Drought…” That’s all I needed. Urp. Oh, shit, I misquoted. It was worse. It was “Olivia Munn Saves Us From Fashion Drought…” making me long for humanity’s extinction. SCIENCE! One scientist’s brain controlled another’s hand over the Internet. And I think we all know what he did with it. Not the world’s biggest Cory Booker fan, but his opponent, Steve Lonegan, is way worse. I could and will unpack his latest in more detail… …but let me just say that reaffirming your straight maleness by declaring you have a fetish for cigars? Read Freud and rethink tactics. Media, if you’re going to call something a “cloud car startup”, there had better be a company working on a Bespin Cloud Car #lamestream |
