finally a clearer version

Day 68 of inserting a random Muppet into a random Star Trek screenshot #StarTrek #StarTrekTNG #TheMuppets #SesameStreet

The 'kin' of ‘napkin’ means "little." ‘Nap’ comes from ‘nape,' which means “tablecloth.” So a napkin is a little tablecloth. 10/10, no notes.

I do not want AI in my house. I do not want AI to generate a blouse. I do not want it in my games I do not want it to win fame. I do not want it, to be fair, Because I do not want it anywhere

I feel like a lot of people online have made a hobby of arguing nitpicking and hate following people and regardless of the validity of whatever makes the person shitty, whether the reasons are real or perceived, I think the way people like this interact is unproductive and gross.

You can’t crush ideas by suppressing them, you crush ideas by ignoring them. – Ursula K LeGuin

We need Nuremberg trials for the Trump administration officials who illegally sent these men to a torture camp. No "forward, not backward" BS. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

We had congressional hearings when parents just suspected heavy metal was leading some kids to suicide.

LeMonde said, not on our watch

“There’s a responsible way to use AI” “There’s a responsible way to pay more for electricity, poison Black people, and encourage teens to kill themselves”

Thinking about the airplay of this song in my white working class hometown in the 1980s. How it spoke to a lot of people’s imaginations. How it might have, in its original, moved those imaginations.

A nice thread in which an actual expert patiently explains why the Secretary of Health and Human Service is not simply a liar, but an especially stupid one.

In September 2023, Lilian Weng, then Head of "Safety" at OpenAI, used her public Twitter account to announce how ChatGPT could be used as a therapist, and encouraged users to also use it as such.

Remember: When Tylenol was poisoned *by an outsider* and killed people, the company recalled all their products & redesigned them. When Intel’s Pentium had a bug so obscure it affected 1 in _9 billion_ long division calculations, they recalled their chips. ChatGPT was made deadly *by its team*.

So fun fact: the "N-word" only became the "N-word" during the OJ Simpson trial. I forgot who did a video about this but this trial happened in the mid-90s, barely 30 yrs ago for people to stop being comfortable to say it.

Apparently I'm doing this -- my open letter to that open latter about AI in writing and publishing. I emerged from Hibernation Week to write it, so god only knows how much sense it makes. But at least a human wrote it, so that's nice. Bonus: picture of my "cat," sweet baby Boomba.

ICE is looking to spend more than $300 million under Trump for social-media monitoring tools, facial recognition software, license plate readers and services to find where people live and work.

good news everyone: you can totally ignore what creators say about their art, it’s easy and I just did it

Totally not suspicious at all. An innocent man would absolutely do this.

De-Google in the new year, folks - do it in increments if need be.

it's rare for a movie to flop *twice*

RIP Brigitte Bardot, iconic actress of the 1960s, fierce defender of animal rights, racist, and convicted five times for inciting racial hatred.

what the hell kind of dirt does Jared Leto have on every movie studio?

There are two kinds of people: You: Asks the time Person 1: Tells you the time Person 2: Tells you who started the watch company, made the watch, the mechanics of the watch, and everything else except what time it is

When I was a kid I used to love watching those old black-and-white westerns on tv Saturday mornings…

Diane, in my left hand I am holding the number six and in my right hand I am holding the number seven. Weighing the options, Diane, I am currently unable to tell which of these numbers is heavier.

We must sacrifice the yearly Pop Tart to stave off the anger of the Old Ones. Only Pop Tarts can ward off the Mouth of Madness!

MAGA. Congratulations, dumbasses. Elect a president with numerous bankruptcies and well...this is what you get. washingtonpost.com/business/2025/12/27/corporate-bankruptcies-economy/?itid=hp-top-table-main_p001_f001

I love the cast photo of #StarWars #TheForceAwakens at the table read - including Mark Hamill, although Luke Skywalker appears only at the end of the film & has no lines! 😂 Apparently he read the entire script - everything except other people’s lines - more work than he did on episodes 7&9 combined🤣

post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't nirvana, soundgarden, pearl jam, or alice in chains. Depeche Mode at their peak, and the soundtrack of my late teens.

Insane NY Post column suggesting that the new First Lady who is sad about leaving her longtime neighbors in a not fancy NYC neighborhood is an ungrateful brown woman

I just saw two people get into a disagreement on the internet...and work it out like civilized, mature adults. It actually made me feel hopeful about humanity again for a second.

as an aside i am fascinated by this whole effort to make katie miller a thing. she’s incredibly off-putting and totally vacant behind the eyes!

"I can't hit you!" "La'An made better Plomeek soup than you, Nurse." ***SLAP!*** #TOSSatNight

I realize there's a steady influx of new users to this site and that they don't have enough people to vet every single arrival, but I feel like they just aren't even trying right now. The worst automated gatekeeping software should be able to tell that this is not a person:

Private equity getting involved in surrogate births, I'm sure that's gonna turn out great

This is how terrifying the power of our collective divestment is to them. Even a single band's boycott is catastrophic to their sense of domination and power. Boycotts work.

So in spring, Pam Bondi said there was nothing to the Epstein investigation, then “closed” it. Now, they “find” 1 million more docs. So did she close this without seeing these docs? Or was someone hiding them?
