"Air quality's not THAT bad," he said all summer.... Just washed the outside windows and, hoo boy, we got some filth. Pulling this much dirt from something that appears clear gives me a sense of what fire season does to lungs. Yuck.

Today I learned that bears float.

Honouring Tim Curry by teaching my cats how to do The Time Warp dance. It's going as well as you think it is.

I just typed out a comment to a post, re-read it, thought "Oh, right, I'll look like a fucking creep if I post that" and then deleted it, which is a reminder that the reason I came up with "The failure mode of 'clever' is 'asshole'" is because I need the warning as much if not more than other folks

Consider how the average person parks. Now consider that it's information that those people are putting into the internet that are feeding AI algorithms.

Eisenhower would beat the living shit out of pretty much everyone in the West Wing right now. LBJ would intercept anyone grabbing a chair and finish them off. Kennedy would cheer them on while also banging their wives and/or husbands. Nixon and Reagan would be crying about decorum on their podcast

This is a great example of both the usual reasons crypto sucks (irrevocable automated instant transfers are bad) and ALSO the reasons AI is fundamentally insecure and you should never ever let it within a hundred yards of anything mission-critical or valuable.

A pub for readers. Essentially a library with a bar. And...... No. Fucking. TVs.

this morning, mamdani’s team got in touch with me to float a new tax proposal: if your net worth exceeds $5 million and you dress badly, you’ll be hit with a 10% annual levy for “visual pollution.” i would be in charge of deciding if the outfits are bad.

Pizza is just a fancy open-faced grilled cheese sandwich.

I do not like this gen AI I do not like what it implies I do not want it in my art I do not think it makes you smart I do not want it in my games I do not like its goals and aims I do not want it in my books I do not like the way it looks I do not like it, I don't care I do not want it anywhere

True Art

I've seen & read interviews that mention that over the years he's consistently made exercise and music a big part of his daily routine. I dare say, he may be on to something with that.

Violets are blue Roses are red Someday it will happen And he will be

The SPEAKER implies. The LISTENER infers. The DUDE abides.

perfect metaphors don’t exis—

My function as an artist is not to be popular, or even understood, but simply to be enjoyed.

this, *this*, is the greatest crossover of all time

Reposting this…for reasons.

What a banger

Timeline cleanse: I present a series of photos of irritated animals

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

"Do you like my LLM?" I do not like it Sam Altman I do not like your LLM I would not like it here or there I would not like it anywhere I do not like you Sam Altman I will not use your LLM I will not use it in a car I will not use it with a mouse I will not use it in a tree Sam Altman you let me be

Evidence that music school was not a waste of time and money: The leaf blower frequency is between B flat and B natural. Also, fuck leaf blowers. Hey, trees ! Hurry up and get naked.

🏆 This goes in my collection of top tier insults.

once again, if tylenol caused autism, america would have a better rail system

I also had an entirely adequate science education, and recommend rocks in your pockets. Just the average amount will do. Also, if you're being raptured and have size 13 feet and good taste in footwear, leave your address in the comments.

If the AI bubble really is bursting, please take this lesson from it: Nothing marketed to you this relentlessly is ever worth it. If it was, they wouldn’t need to beg you.

I'm all for transhumanism but gAI ain't it. Weakening our brains and ceding more control to megacorporations over our culture isn't augmenting us, it's diminishing us. All cyber, no punk.

Historian suggests fighting a wildfire with a back burn.

For me, it's the Reply All people. Every. Damn. Time.

Elephants are born weighing 250 lbs. They are the biggest babies on earth except for motorists when they see a bike lane

There's no algorithm on Bluesky, but we do have themes. Or so it seems

Talk about The Wire, Sopranos, Game of Thrones all you want, but the greatest US television program ever made is Sesame Street. It's not even close. 50+ years of treating kids across class, ethnicity, religion not as mini-consumers...but as citizens with a stake in this world.

Superman didn’t “go woke.” Star Wars didn’t “go woke.” Sesame Street didn’t “go woke.” They were always woke, you’re just fucking stupid.

I'm just the billionth person to say it, but we collectively seem to learn so very little, to understand so little of what we see, and forget what little we understand so quickly. Soul sick.

How do I nominate this for insult of the year?
