Every AI commercial is like "Hey AI, what goes good on a sandwich?" and then the AI is like "Have you considered... cheese?" And then the narrator is like: THE FUTURE IS HERE.

Maybe things are looking up for poor Clarence. Just because there's a mobster's dead wife in his bed and he's on the run with no allies or money... Nah, he's screwed. "Rats in the Cellar," Part 3, on Patreon. #writing #shortstory #furry #author #fiction #scifi www.patreon.com/posts/rats-i...

There can be no better indicator that the tech sector lacks imagination than the fact that they think they invented it.

Hey, cool, Party Pete has a drinking buddy.

Knew I shouldn't have used all those hashtags! Now Bluesky won't work. Dear Bluesky, what is the limit?

Well. Maybe some pilots prefer to fly regional. I don't know how to fly, but were I a pilot, and flying regional enabled me to bark at my colleagues, well...woof.

1970s animation is an absolute garden of this sort of thing. There were times when I was watching TV in the 1970s where I genuinely had no idea what I was looking at. youtu.be/I6JoY2lWJac

Dear JD Vance: Nice job in Hungary. Say, Susan Collins is up against a couple of strong challengers; maybe you could pop up here to Maine and say a few words on her behalf?

So, okay, I had a LITTLE fun with this part of the story. I was trying to think of the nastiest job I could possibly give poor abused Clarence, one that in normal circumstances would send him screaming into the night. Sooo... Rats in the Cellar, Part 2. www.patreon.com/posts/rats-i...

Dude could deliver a ton of farm-fresh aura on your doorstep every Tuesday... As I was driving home from the movie, the line occurred to me: "They sort of made him his own cliche, didn't they?" And I wondered what that meant the rest of the way home, until I figured it out.

Actually, I like Arby's, but hee hee nevertheless.

...We're gonna be seeing a lot more "breasting boobily down the stairs" again, aren't we...

I think one of the strengths in the Super Mario Galaxy Movie is that everyone in it is just...competent. We're so used to movies with bumbling heroes and winking subversions that characters who *are capable of doing their jobs without being jerks about it* are a subversion unto themselves.

Okay. I've seen the Super Mario Galaxy movie. Everyone take five. Smoke if you got 'em. I need a minute.

Erm, they're called palaeontologists, actually.

For reasons, I was reminded today of my favorite call in to Car Talk. Here's Click and Clack, the Tappet Brothers, talking to a fellow from Houston discussing his government van. youtu.be/moAqzM4ptm8

On the run and out of time, Clarence winds up in the back alleys of the city's underground, begging for help from reluctant Rat-Anthros. Fortunately, they're very good at making gold out of garbage. "Rats in the Cellar," part one of three, $3 tier on Patreon. www.patreon.com/posts/rats-i...

Well, it's official. Everyone in the whole wide world has seen the Super Mario Galaxy movie but me. Starting to think I never should have reposted that poster...

The other day, for reasons, I pulled Star Fox Adventures out of mothballs, brushed a foot of dust off the Nintendo Wii, disentangled a Gamecube controller from a pile of 20-year-old dongles, and decided to see if any of it still worked. It did. (Though it doesn't look good in hi-def.) /1

Guys. PHRASING.

Hammer time.

Doesn't seem like a punishment for attempted murder. "You've just tried to kill a werewolf, so we'll make you one." Oo, my lobster is too buttery. But Albert wakes up in the wrong body, and he's not at all happy about it. "The Wrong Albert," $3 tier, on Patreon. www.patreon.com/cw/Ben_Goodr...

Gary's got a cousin!

Our new DHS Secretary, everyone. No sudden movements.

And now im crying god FUCKING dammit

I dont use chatbots, but am I right in my understanding that it's a sort of glazing machine? "That's a great question! I'm so proud of you for asking it!" It got me thinking about participation trophies...

They will pry "What's Opera, Doc" FROM MY COLD, DEAD HANDS.

Just realized the "problematic kink/media" thing is literally just the "video games make you violent" argument with a different coat of paint. People playing shooters dont actually wanna shoot people by default, they're playing a game. You can fill in the blanks with any kink, it's always the same

Ugh. You know what I hate most about being sick? It makes me selfish. I just want the world to stop and wait for me to get over myself, but, to my frustration, it just keeps ticking along. "Can't you see I have the sniffles??" If I was married I'd probably be insufferable.

Notebook doodle. This guy loves the rain.

This is gold. If there was a public showing in London I'd be on a plane. I have all the surviving episodes of this serial thus far and now I need these two. William Hartnell was something no other Doctor got the chance to be: first. www.bbc.com/news/article...

So the architect was a big fan of Blade Runner, or...?

I want to read "The Great Ringtail Garbage Caper" to him

Miles and Walter's attempts to reach New York hit a slight snag. As disaster unfolds all around them, it's clear that there's only one thing that can save both their lives: a ham. All five installments of this story remain free to read on Patreon until 3/15. www.patreon.com/posts/152568...

You know what really frosts my shorts is they could have just not included the storyline in the first place. Instead, they included it, removed it, then bragged that they removed it. Somehow that's WAY worse. Neutrality would have been better than trying to score points with the wrong side.
