Edgerrin James is ready for TV analysis. His NFL peers support his authenticity https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6973527/2026/01/16/nfl-miami-hurricanes-edgerrin-james-tv-personality/

The racist online video that Donald Trump recently shared and then deleted generated a bipartisan furor
-- because of its portrayal of Barack and Michelle Obama as apes.
-- What was little remarked on was how it presented Trump himself — as the “King of the Jungle.”
After a year back in the White House, Trump’s efforts to promote himself as the singularly dominant figure in the world have become so commonplace
that they no longer seem surprising.
He regularly d…

Trump’s Relentless Self-Promotion Fosters an American Cult of Personality
President Trump has engaged in a spree of self-aggrandizement unlike any of his predecessors, fostering a mythologized superhuman persona and making himself the inescapable force at home and around the world.

""Elements might endure, but the MAGA movement is at heart a cult of personality unlikely to outlast its singular leader for very long in its existing form. "
MAGA warned it has an expiration date: 'Trumpism will not last' - Raw Story

For a vibes-based cult of personality, it’s the kiss of death for a thought like “Trump killed Epstein” to become a mainstream refrain.
It’s an exit ramp from Trumpism.

How informal is your prose? Is there a limit to informality?
I think that, even where you don't have a first-person narrator, prose in fiction should express the personality of the point of view character -- be similar to but just a little more formal than their normal way of speaking.
To preserve the plausibility that they might have writt…

Like it’s fine if you like Claude or whatever as a tool for coding and even get excited about it, but how does this replace literally your whole personality and who you are?

As many of you know, I am taking a class here at UNC on Personality.
One of the tests to determine personality in our book was so incredibly
useful and interesting, I just had to share it.
Answer each of the following items "true" or "false"
1. I think beavers work too hard.
2. I use shoe polish to excess.
3. God is love.
4. I like mannish children.
5. I have always been diturbed by the sight of Lincoln's ears.

Coming face to face with a probable psychopath was enough to make Dr Leanne ten Brinke rethink her career choices.
Early in her 20s, while studying forensic psychology in Halifax, in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia,
Ten Brinke was volunteering at a parole office, which would hold weekly group meetings for released sex offenders.
“Most of the men showed contrition,” says Ten Brinke.
“They really seemed to recognise the damage that they had done.”

Ok, so this is kinda interesting, but we don’t need another pop-sci personality profile. Instead, people could read up on Albert Bandura’s theory of self-efficiacy, and how the belief in abilities being changable through our own actions—as also described by Carol Dweck’s growth mindset—is a characteristic of high self-efficiacy.

It’s ridiculously funny how much the Right is convinced that there’s a personality cult around Bill Fucking Clinton.
There wasn’t a personality cult around Bill Fucking Clinton in 1993. There sure as hell isn’t one NOW. Most living Democrats are probably not old enough to have ever voted for him. Millennials definitively didn’t.
I would bet money that Clinton was technically prosecutable. @…

In an obvious move to try to manipulate the narrative around the contents of the Epstein files, one of the few prominent figures whose face has NOT been redacted is Bill Clinton—and the Trump administration is signal boosting those images.

Robert Kaye, the founder of MusicBrainz, has died. Far too early. I'm sitting here, looking at the stickers he gave me. So many questions come up
Robert was a personality. He was loud, fun, thoughtful, determined, principled, noticeable. He lived. Uncompromising, yet deeply caring. Towering, and not merely physically. His hairstyles were legion and legend. He was a creator and a coordinator of mayhem and of chaos. He had all the skills of an engineer, and all the sensibilities of a…

The FBI director, Kash Patel, announced on Monday he was launching a criminal investigation
into group chats used by Minneapolis protesters on the Signal messaging app,
based on a social media post by the far-right personality Cam Higby.
Patel used the podcast of another rightwing personality, Benny Johnson, to break the news.
Higby had posted on Sunday on X that he had “infiltrated” a group chat on Signal,

This quip from Paul Ford summarises the AI hype perfectly to me:
"All of the people I love hate this stuff, and all the people I hate love it. And yet, likely because of the same personality flaws that drew me to technology in the first place, I am annoyingly excited."

In the age of "#AI" assisted programming and "vibe coding", I don't feel like calling myself a programmer anymore. In fact, I think that "an artist" is more appropriate.
All the code I write is mine entirely. It might be buggy, it might be inconsistent, but it reflects my personality. I've put my metaphorical soul into it. It's a work of art.
If people want to call themselves "software developers", and want their work described as a glorified copy-paste, so be it. I'm a software artist now.
EDIT: "craftsperson" is also a nice term, per the comments.
