Getting to know a city means getting to know its shortcuts. The back lane that cuts a corner, the arcade that connects one street with another, the pathways that extend below and above ground, avoiding the traffic at street level. How far can you get across the Sydney CBD without using the street?  It’s all […]

Some people think this map looks gerrymandered, but we don’t see it. We also don’t see the innovation, economic growth, and kick-ass food scene that exists in this country, largely thanks to immigrants. Everyone, get your guns: Let’s kick out all the foreigners and shoot ourselves in the foot.

District 2 aims to “Keep Austin Weird” by taking away all of its voting power. But at least urban liberals and rural conservatives now share something in common: one representative to do Trump’s bidding in Congress.

Early in President Trump’s first term, McSweeney’s editors began to catalog the head-spinning number of misdeeds coming from his administration. We called this list a collection of Trump’s cruelties, collusions, corruptions, and crimes, and it felt urgent to track them, to ensure these horrors—happening almost daily—would not be forgotten. Now that Trump has returned to office, amid civil rights, humanitarian, economic, and constitutional crises, we felt it critical to make an inventory of this new round of horrors. This list will be updated monthly between now and the end of Donald Trump’s second term.

The Drupal AI Initiative is responsible for leading the definition and delivery of major AI capabilities for Drupal. Whilst operating in the fast-paced AI industry, we recognise the importance of taking time to ensure plans to deliver our bold vision are robust.

With this in mind, last week, members of the Drupal AI Initiative gathered in-person and online for two days of structured activities dedicated to refining the initiative’s direction, funding model, operational framework, and marketing. 

The off-site fostered improved collaboration and strategic clarity. It also served as a valuable forum to present and critically review a newly developed marketing and communications strategy, ensuring plans are in place to extend awareness of Drupal AI far beyond markets where Drupal is well-established.

I am the Overtourist. I’m here to overtour your picturesque town or world-class city. Shooting water pistols at me only hydrates and emboldens me.

I have no idea how anything works here. I will pause in the middle of crowded sidewalks, amble in rushing zones, and fail to possess the correct app, ticket, identification, or change. I will wait to decide my deli order until I’m at the front of the line so I can ask the sandwich maker to explain the difference between mortadella, soppressata, and capicola, and that’s before I start asking him about the bread options.

I am here to sample the substances you’ve recently legalized: psychedelic mushrooms, raw milk, and Indiana Pacers jerseys. I will try all of them at once and hallucinate while vomiting in my Pacers jersey at the precise intersection whose closure most disrupts your morning commute.

Where are your public toilets? I have come to make their lines so long you will never be able to pee again. This might be the way you die, like a cartoon character, the whites of your eyes filling from the bottom with yellow.
