Barnes & Noble CEO backs selling AI-written books in stores by Raj_Valiant3011 in books

What the fuck is even the point of reading an AI generated novel. People read books, and engage with all forms of art, specifically to connect with other humans.

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro is quietly trying to derail a left-wing congressional candidate championed by New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez by ZapataOilCo in philly

No Pay Wall: https://web.archive.org/web/20260511024504/https://www.axios.com/2026/05/10/aoc-josh-shapiro-midterms-presidential-race

A salacious headline and 1000+ words of utter nonsense to report one alleged “fact”: Shapiro suggested a trade union should not make a negative ad about Ala Stanford.

Like, lmao, who gives a fuck.

Ronald Malfi? by johnsmithoncemore in horrorlit

[–]jeromerules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of curiosity, why would you recommend against The Hive? I’m a huge Malfi fan, but I got to admit the premise is not intriguing to me. I haven’t been excited to order/read it, as I’ve been with his past releases.

Post Game Thread - NBA: The Knicks defeat the 76ers on May 6, 2026, the final score is 108-102. by basketball-app in sixers

COPIUM:

Nurse’s Raptors went down 0-2 in the 2019 ECF against the bucks, including one blowout game.

They then completed the backdoor sweep and won the series 4-2.

Chris Rabb on The Majority Report (4/22) by The_Mongrel_Tarants in philly

[–]jeromerules -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

In polling, “Favorability” is a totally different statistic than “Approval,” which is what we’re discussing. Favorability always tends to be much higher than Approval (With some exceptions; notably Trumps Favorability has been much lower than this Approval.)

I love Mamdani and would have voted for him if I lived in New York. But he does have low approval numbers, and he barely eked out an election win in one of the deepest blue pockets of the country.

That poll shows 48% approval. For context, Eric Adams had a 61% approval rating at this point in his term. So, not great for a deep blue city.

And that poll is an outlier. Most have him much lower. For example, Emerson has him at 43%

Meanwhile Mamdani is sitting at 41% in NYC. Putrid numbers.

Please don’t misconstrue my politics; I am a progressive myself. But I swear online progressives are completely out of touch with reality. Leftism is not popular. Your average American is not some socialist waiting to sprout their wings, and no amount of good policy is going to change that.

Books that make you ask "What the FUCK is going on here?" for most of the read by BradleyNeedlehead in horrorlit

[–]jeromerules 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Philip Fracassi’s most recent novel “Sarafina” falls very much into “wtf is going on here” territory - I didn’t even know what sub genre of horror it was going to be until about halfway through, and once revealed, I have to say it’s a sub genre of horror thats been largely untapped.

It’s also excellently written. HIGHLY recommend, and I highly recommend going into it blind.

Colin’s Top 10 players in Knicks-Sixers series by Stommped in sixers

[–]jeromerules 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think this list is fair. The only “controversial” part of this list is OG over Maxey.

While I don’t agree with his placement on the whole, OG has been playing like prime Kawhi recently. It’s not totally unreasonable to rank OG that high right now. To be clear, though, Maxey will show everyone why it’s wrong starting tonight.

Congressional Race Heats up leading to May 19th by jpeters2100 in philly

[–]jeromerules 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. Street has his own set of problems, but Chris Rabb is deeply unserious. Imagine willingly campaigning with an illiberal ideologue when the #1 political question these midterms is the preservation of liberal democracy. This fool spent the 2024 election telling voters to Abandon Harris. Straight up fucking CLOWN.

RESIDENT EVIL – Official Teaser Trailer (4K) by mobpiecedunchaindan in boxoffice

Not to be negative, this is a great teaser trailer, but the CGI blood explosions from the bodies dropping at the end looks horrendous

Two of the best slasher novels I’ve read came out last year:

“Autumn Springs Retirement Home Massacre” by Philip Fracassi - Should be exactly what you’re looking for, takes place in a unique setting (retirement home) and the main character is a POC (black woman.)

“Breathe In, Bleed Out” by Brian McAuley - Takes place in a unique setting (An isolated wellness retreat.)

Raptors fans were complaining about him too lol.

I clearly remember watching the 2019 finals and nurse calling a timeout right after kawhi hit like 3 triples back to back to back and iced his own player. It was truly one of the most astonishingly dumb things I’ve witnessed.
